But the RIAA is a perfect example of why many people around the globe have the feeling that most of the USA is full of nut-jobs!!
You know talking with people from other first world countries they never seem to indicate that the US is hated or disliked as much as you would read on here. They dont always agree(of course) with us, but i have never heard nay of them say things like this. Believe it or not, people from outside they US actually like the US! Not all of course.. but you get my point. Perhaps the biggest critic of america.. is america.. which is probably a good thing:), I just wish people wouldn't say things like the world hates us.
I don't think that someone saying they have 10 years of java experience, makes them a dumbass.. makes them a person trying to find a job.. though perhaps, technically speaking, they are lying.
why? i graduated in march with a BS in CS (math minor too). with a 2.5 gpa, no references really or any industry experience and only applied for jobs online. Now in june i'm an official software engineer making good money. The irony is how much i listened to slashdot's gloomy idea of the real world was considering doing something else outside the computer industry because there was no jobs for me (as you would believe by reading slashdot). Not that it was easy for me to get this job, but it wasn't the only response i got to my resume. Course I also think I got pretty lucky.
So my personal advice is to try and do what you like and not get disappointed over being rejected. And I think people in masses tend to be pessimists.. so take what they (slashdot) say witha grain of salt.
i dunno when people talk about RTS, they almost always compare it to starcraft, therefore i'd say starcraft defined what RTS should be, for now anyway.
Warcraft 2 was great but no one compares it to anything after starcraft was released. C&C was pretty overated IMO, same with TA.
yeah because the other people have no clue and think the world is perfect. Hey guess what? other people have different views and opinions than you do, and you are not automatically right because you think you are, anymore than the people who voted differently than you can think the same thing. Maybe the majority of voters was wrong, maybe not. unfortunatly, we'll never really know, despite what so many people here already think.
go back to your bible. That's where the two alternatives are only heaven and hell
Ya know.. last time i checked.. the bible was made for and by people living on earth, and the future inhabinents(spelling?)
Those of us living on Earth are interested in the comparison, because we're using our brains to vote in a couple of months.
Yes i'm not on earth. I'm on mars right now. Quite lonely i might add, the beagle was supposed to say hi, but i never even saw it:(. Oh yes and all interviews are turned down because they don't care. I'm sure. You can assume that if you want, i guess, i think that's quite faulty resaoning, since you have no reason to believe that, other than you want too. Actually i'm not using my brain to vote, using i think a bubble sheet, unless it's changed. I will use my brain to figure out which bubble i need to fill in though.
You again? Right dude. How dare bush turn down an interview! holy shit burn him! WHy show bush at all if he declined the interview anyway? Why not just talk about kerry, but in the blurb i see bush mentioned more than kerry, that's not biased? It is, and to be fair, everyone is. But the level/. is at, is irritating.
Did it ever occur to you that maybe, just maybe, George W. Bush is all those things that you claim are "Bias"? (much like M$ Windoze is guilty of being a crappy OS)
And maybe just maybe, if you took an ubiased look at the OSes you'd see windows isn't that bad. Yes it sucks in some areas, but guess what? so does every other os.
Becuase folks tend to be hard on the president here doesn't mean that/. is biased. It means that folks on/. are hard on the president.
this sounds familiar.. mmm 'we report and you decide' This crowd makes fun of fox for doing these types of things, but you'll defend these actions when they aggree with your side. Interesting. Also, i would say, "The result: detailed and informative responses from Kerry, and many missing responses from the Bush campaign due to lack of information provided by Bush's website." qualifies(spelling?) as a conclusion more or less.
i've thought abotu it a lot. guess what? unless something changes i'll probably vote for bush. I know/. loves to make it sound like bush has made the country into ruins, but so did conservatives with clinton.

UNfortunatly you'd have to buy like 30 of those controllers (along with a few other things) to get the power to pull the friggin trigger :p
the way *some* peple change underwear?
omg i'd hate to do his laundry after hearing that.
here's another one Maddox does his take

My sister won't touch anything that doesn't look like MS Office however.
Really? i just asked some people and they said i don't like like MS Office.
only problem is, as I recall, it was only available in one level. :(

yes you are certainly one to determine whom people should elect to lead them.
sadly, they always have and probably always will in a free country.
i know.. that's my point. that's what slashdot is doing.
There is a huge difference between marriage and friendship. Marriage is a contract more or less.

Can /. atleast make an attempt to be a bit unbiased. This is ridiculous. At the very least let us come to our own conclusions.
i've thought abotu it a lot. guess what? unless something changes i'll probably vote for bush. I know /. loves to make it sound like bush has made the country into ruins, but so did conservatives with clinton.
Wow, nice referrnce, lol.
