Because it's the new fad to sigh and go, "Oh, those Slashtards are up to their old tricks." I've been on this site for six months and it got old the first time I read it.
I know about half of Slashdot's community actively hates the website they post on. No need to advertise it every chance you get.
'In fact, one study reports that each year, copyright piracy from motion pictures, sound recordings, business and entertainment software, and video games costs their respective industries $58 billion in total output, costs American workers 373,375 jobs and $16.3 billion in earnings, and costs federal, state, and local governments $2.6 billion in tax revenue.
Fixed that for the Republican. That revenue isn't "lost." It's not like people are shredding the dollar bills worth that game/movie/song as they pirate. It's just being re-entered into something else.
I'm also not pro-piracy, but when you see idiots like these, it's hard not to be.
And by not using the Wii controller extensively you have great controls.
I wouldn't say great. More like "I'm going to kill myself if I have to keep using this remote" controls. Not for every game, mind you, but for those games they shoehorned onto the system and the Wiimote, absolutely. RPG's work fine because it's more or less a directional pad and the A button, but anything more complex than a few buttons at once (see the majority of first person shooters on the Wii for details) simply does not function properly.
Not only that, but Melee players have become accustomed to the GameCube controller. If you want anything close to a level playing field, the Wii crap doesn't cut it.
If we're talking about a simpler game like Super Mario Galaxy, I'd agree with you (that game controls wonderfully with the Wii crap), but the Wii controller is not designed for something like Brawl. Why try to shoehorn it onto a system like that?
Brawl's one of the few games that doesn't use the Wii controller extensively, and you can (and should) plug in a GameCube controller to play it. But then, if you're going to make your consumers use a normal controller, why not just keep the game on 360 and PS3?

Do you know how much data is on a Blu-Ray?
Significantly less space than my $50 portable hard drive.
So Ford Prefect would have his home planet's neighbour explode, too? (He comes from a planet somewhere around Betelgeuse) Pity.
Yeah, I'm thinking skinless porn appeals to quite a different subset of the public than naked porn.
Like zombies or something?
Linux isn't the operating system it was in the 1990's, just like Windows.
Naked doesn't quite equal skinless, unless you're saying that you're naked of skin. Or...?
Tabbed browsing
Cue the Opera fanboys.
Reality isn't as funny as the original joke. Be quiet, please.
Yeah, they will. Just insert an error message:
ERROR: INTERNET EXPLORER 8 NEEDED

.net applications do it during install, why not IE apps?
Some puppies are cute. Others...well...

If it's shit, you're not going to watch/play/listen to it. You're going to delete it. Simple as that.

No, it does suck. It's awful.

But can you honestly say it was a better game than Sands of Time?
Considering all of the copies of the new PoP on clearance aisles near me, I only assume most people agree with me on this one.

Besides, Prince of Persia wasn't fun to begin with. Ubisoft just went downhill since last-gen's Sands of Time.
The Bear and the Bow is the title.
"The Bear and the Bow" will be all-Disney, not Pixar.
Citation? All I see are websites saying The Bear and the Bow is Pixar's realm this time around.
The Lion King was Disney's version of Hamlet.
Or Wall-E or Ratatouille, for that matter.
Does Wundwos, or any Mhac, provide a way to keep proprietary applications patched or updated? Exactly.
Fixed that for you.
Is it the new fad to spell "Ubuntu" wrong? It's not that difficult. Add it to Firefox's dictionary if you have to.
Dude, you got a 5+ Insightful. Settle down.
I've seen Ubuntu ask to install a list of updates longer then my johnson
And probably 90% of them were 120KB libraries, which MS updates but doesn't list.

I considered including that one, but even fans have to admit that movie was plain fucking weird.
