  1. Re:Last cup of coffee? on Last NASA Spacewalk Marks End of Era · · Score: 1

    Doesn't stop the headline from reading 'LAST NASA SPACEWALK!!!'

  2. Re:It won't be long... on Carmack: Mobile Gaming To Surpass Current Consoles · · Score: 1

    Also in the end it will depend on where the games are, and by "the games" I mean the games that are cultural icons to us today, not indie stuff, even if it's good.

  3. Re:It won't be long... on Carmack: Mobile Gaming To Surpass Current Consoles · · Score: 2

    This. Current consoles are outdated as heck. It's the end of this gens "next gen," and the next gen will be ushered in very soon. The hardware is there.

  4. Re:Censorship Statement :) on Google's New Design · · Score: 2

    First time I saw it nothing went wrong.

  5. I'm Impressed on Microsoft Launches Office 365 Cloud Suite · · Score: 1

    Missing features AND too complex. That one is a bit hard to do.

  6. Re:You mean companies want to make profits? on EVE Online Players Rage, Protest Over Microtransactions · · Score: 1

    Yeah, $80 monocle is hardly 'micro.'

  7. Poor China on The End of Cheap Labor In China · · Score: 1

    But more importantly, poor Walmart!

    lol u mad?

  9. Re:You're a little late to the party, Iran. on Iran Plans To Put a Monkey Into Space · · Score: 1

    There was a lot more to their space stations than "prestige." All of them had (or were supposed to have) a practical purpose, spying being a major motivator.

  10. Re:Terraria on Notch Announces Minecraft 'Adventure Update' · · Score: 1

    You'd think so, but like people are saying, that get's old after you've exhausted the possibilities of playing vanilla survival. It CAN be fun with mods, after you've exhausted all possibilities otherwise.

  11. Re:Terraria on Notch Announces Minecraft 'Adventure Update' · · Score: 1

    I really don't think so, especially with it coming to the 360. I think it'll be popular on the 360, really. Maybe not the same cult-like reception it gets on the PC, but yeah. Also fuck survival, that's boring- if you're not playing on a "creative" server then you're-doing-it-wrong, and that's why it's getting boring.

  12. Fad, Will Pass. on Is There a New Geek Anti-Intellectualism? · · Score: 1

    Similar to the current hipster movement, it's not cool enough, almost too "mainstream" to be an intellectual right now. Some geeks try to hide their intellectual side- not necessarily abandoning it, for the sake of being different and special. This is amplified by the sheep who follow those other geeks, thinking that the underlying motivations for their kinds' exodus was something other than self definition/separation/what have you. Reddit is a good example. They're obviously still geeks, but they try to hide it by putting stress on life and (usually) lies about their social life, something unheard of and in fact rather unnecessary on the internet when you're not in a setting with people you know in real life usually, however the behavior persists for the aforementioned reason. Whenever the balances of the great hipster scales are tipped, you'll see the converse of this. Also I can't have linebreaks? I am not happy.

  13. Re:Which FPS to get? on Mass Effect 3, Battlefield 3 Launch Dates Announced · · Score: 1

    [citation needed] Well not really. I haven't heard otherwise, but I'm pretty sure you're full of it.

  14. Re:Say WHAT? on Activision Reveals Call of Duty Subscription Plans · · Score: 1

    In one where they feel the need to justify the unjustifiable, and compare the incomparable.

  15. Re:Allies were the villians in WWII on The Machines That Sparked the Beginning of the Computer Age · · Score: 1

    Well, logically- oh, nice tin foil hat. All makes sense now. Carry on.

  16. Re:Great timing. on US Nuclear Power Enters the Digital Age · · Score: 1

    Hey why aren't you bashing Windows?!?! I'll admit XP was awesome after SP3, but you might want to keep positive comments on the down-low, lest ye draw the fire of wrath from the hipsters that lie in wait in these realms.

  17. Re:At last! on NASA Rejoins Space Race With Manned Deep Space Craft · · Score: 1

    July isn't that far away...?

  18. Re:Dear God on Microsoft Kills Skype For Asterisk · · Score: 1

    No, by my logic I'll complain when they actually cut a Skype service that people use and was free to start with. You do know what Asterisk is, correct? Besides, comparing this to cutting support to an OS is ridiculous. Sure, you could see it as a foreshadowing of what may be to come, but it's not the same thing at all. Also what's with the hypersensitivity? Troll? Really? Oh wait- it wasn't because I offended your milk, it was because I didn't bash Microsoft directly!

  19. Dear God on Microsoft Kills Skype For Asterisk · · Score: -1, Troll

    That's HARDLY screwing the Skype userbase. Sure it might not be a good thing necessarily, but it certainly doesn't affect the majority. Stop crying over spilled milk.

  20. Re:Same with 1080p on Users Want Matte LCDs While Glossy Screens Dominate · · Score: 1

    Lots of things don't like the resolution 1920x1200 (read: games,) and I hate scaling and stretching.

  21. Re:It's about ROI on Has the Console Arms Race Stalled? · · Score: 0

    Just Cause 2 looks pretty damn good on a PC, and the enemies DO grab at their wounds and scream and cry when you kill them. I try not to pay attention to it, or I start feeling really bad. :(

  22. Re:So? on AppleCare Reps Told To Skirt Malware Questions · · Score: 1

    Duh? And it isn't Apple's responsibility to support those, either.

  23. Re:Oh.. his old hand didn't work. on Man Demonstrates His New Bionic Hand · · Score: 1

    Did you watch the video? It's pretty damn impressive. Albeit, he might not be able to type or knit or something else involving complex motor movement. It has a "coooool" factor to it for sure.

  24. Re:Safe Science isn't Science on Google Lobbies Nevada To Allow Self-Driving Cars · · Score: 1

    I agree completely, but we value the individual waaaay to much for "sacrifice to help everyone." It's the same reason why sweatshops in Asia are so productive.

  25. Re:If I could get to my PC version... on Portal 2 Authoring Tools Beta Released · · Score: 1

    What are they supposed to do, push Sony's DDS right off their own platform?
