  1. Re:I wouldn't use it... on Official AIM for Linux · · Score: 1

    Second of all, I'm sure that they've added all sorts of stupid banner ads to the program, just like they did on the Windows version. I just don't want to be advertised to. That's reason enough to stick with GAIM, even if the official version had more features.

    Heaven forbid they try to make money while your using their free services. Do you know how many fucking servers it probably takes to appease all those 20 million 15 year old AIM users who will go nuts if it goes down for 15 minutes?

    So what, it has banners. Everything in life has it's price, and if you cant stand a 50x50 pixel image then your about the whinest weasel i've ever fucking met.

    The only reason Hitler lost in Russia was because he was fighting a two front war. Hitler tried to come to peace with Great Britain because he realized he couldn't win a two front war. Hitler was crushing Russia before he felt the strain of thinned supply lines and the brunt of a two front war.

    But in a war with china, it's not about bodies, it's about technology. We have the technology to kill 100 of their chinamen with only losing 1 of ours. This war wont be fought on battlefields but in the air and in the science lab.

    The difference is HItler had military geniuses and might. China has nothing similar to the power and intelligence Hitler had at his disposle. Most Asians have little to no creativity or free-lanced intelligence. All they know is fed to them from books. The way to beat them is to suprise them, do something completely far fetched. They also have little military mind power because they don't let them think, therefore they have no grasp of real life scenarios, only shit that's been presented to them in a book.

    Futhermore, I hope we get involved if China invades Taiwan. I wish we would just nuke China and get it over with. All China does is make cheap tv's and export all of it's people. And we don't need either.

  10. Funding solution for Nasa on NASA to Cancel Missions · · Score: 1

    Nasa should be broken off from government control like the Postal Service and PBS, yet still recieve a dynamic amount of money from the government. Nasa would hold semi-annual fund raisers and would allow commercial support in return for advertisements on shuttles and whatnot. With greater amounts of money and freedom, Nasa would be able to raise its salaries, hire better scientists, and get better accountants so they aren't paying 500000 dollars for a piece of aluminum. After large investments from philanthropists and commercial interests, Nasa would run several succesful missions and plan on colonizing the moon. After we begin colonizing the moon, the porn industry will donate 500 million dollars to Nasa, and Nasa will coincidentally announce 2 days later that the Moon is the official Planet of Porn(TM). Then, we will all be satisfied with Nasa, and men everywhere will take trips to the Moon to see the largest picture of Jenna Jameson. The end.

    Did anyone see Politically Incorrect last night? Well, they had Jerry Falwell on (it's a 5 person panel show including bill maher) and they were discussing various issues. When it came to global warming, those things didn't exist to Falwell becuase "God made everything right with the Earth" and DNA didn't exist because it was "left-wing blasphomous science." These are the people who are behind the scenes for George W. Bush and who we're going to be controlled by if we elect him. And if we elect him, we will all like in right-wing, psycho christian state where the police men will be called "God's protectors."

    George W is just a puppet for the right wing, and I'm sure he won't be bashful about taking away all our personal liberties on the net just to appease his fellow conservatives. God I fucking hate republicans, they're about the most heartless bastards I've dealt with in my life. Vive le revolution Marxist!

    You seem to misunderstand. Those are my comments, not emmets. I think that simplicity is a necessity, becuase I don't want to swim through a 30 minute bull shit storyline just to play a game I paid 60 dollars for. I'm more for instant gratification then for wading through a book just to understand the game, let alone play it. But it's just my 2 cents.

    BTW, all Emmet adds is "I still love the classics, I even own a few. The games are still great, and it's a fun hobby, too. ", everything else is my personal comments.

  21. A great example really.. on Classic Gaming Gets Recognition · · Score: 1

    Civilization has to be the greatest example of a great game turned bad by a gaming company, trying to mold a once simplistic, entertaining game into a unnecessarily complex and difficult one. After the creators of Civilization got hired by Microprose, it took them about 3 years to release Civilization 2. When Civilization 2 finally hit stores, it didn't come with any internet/multiplayer support and featured no built in scenarios or tools that were a staple in the original Civilization. Civilization 2 also had little to no difference then the game play from Civilization, and else then tactful icon changes and simple added game options, it was practically the same as Civilization.

    My other major gripe was that Civilization 2 was shortly followed by 3 add-ons (all costing 30 to 50 dollars). Just to play with my friends I had to buy the sequel (Call to Power), and just to play any worthwhile scenarios, I had to buy the Gold Edition. i mean what is this? In addition to this, the game literally came with a book trying to explain everything it had modified from the original Civilization (the original game took me 30 mins to pick up, this game about 30 days). I mean, shit like this just proves why things are moving from the PC market to the console market, because the PC games rape themselves by trying to get profits by making cheap add-ons just to make the game playable!

    It appears today that games aren't about entertainment or fun, but about reading a novel to get into the game just to get some miniscule joy from understanding it--only to be ruined 10 seconds later when some kid has a hack that lets him obliterate you. (sighs like charlie brown)

    I remember 1987, playing Super Mario Brothers and Tecmo Bowl until my eyes bled and my thumbs couldn't move. I mean, gaming today, you don't get any of the nifty hand injuries or mental dilusions (after playing 20 hours straight of Super Mario Brothers in 7th grade, I literally thought my dog was that crazy mushroom character). All you seem to get from today's modern games is a headache and a boner from looking at Laura Croft too much.

    Oh well. I still collect Nintendo games and they have some great deals on EBay (I often find systems and games bundled together with price tags less then 50 dollars). There seems to be a lot of love left for Nintendo and classic gaming, at least with my friends. We often just play Double Dragon and Baseball Simulator 2000 all day if there's nothing better to do. Does anyone know if any of bundles of these classic games are availabe from purchase from actual stores? I know you can get the ROMs (I don't think ROMs compare to actual console playing) and bid on them on EBay, but I'd like to be able to purchase them from actual stores. Thanks for the help.

  25. Easy solution on CNET And MozOffice: Mountains And Molehills? · · Score: 1

    I have a plan to solve these tedious situations that keep arising amongst rumor driven sites. It's as simple as this: when a company plans on announcing something rather radical, the CEO will write it on the ass of someone he has slept with in the past month, weeks before it's been released/announced/etc. The first person of a rumor site/printed source to pleasure the girl with rumors writen on her ass will get the rumor. But beware of ass forgeries. Asses will be compared if necessary, and penetrated if found to be false. Remember, Steve never writes out his first name, and often in parody of himself, calls himself S. Hand Job.

    In conclusion, I would like to present a definition of a word I find relates very well to this article: Douche.

    Douche is defined as:
    A stream of water, often containing medicinal or cleansing agents, that is applied to a body part or cavity for hygienic or therapeutic purposes.
    b. A stream of air applied in a similar way.
    2. The application of a douche.
    3. An instrument for applying a douche.

    Obviously this douche is very important, and we must address it in relation to CNET very soon, before we can succesfully find the 30 girls S. Hand Jobs has had sex with recently.
