  3. Re:Elder Scroll V sales dropping on Notch Asks For Trial By Combat · · Score: 1

    Yea, I hit up steam during sales, and end up with more games then I can reasonably play for around the same price as the latest blockbuster. Usually those games are last years blockbusters, so they run great on my computer built with last years hardware (Which is also easy on the wallet).

    Why do you assume that game pirating is rampant? I know at least 4 PC gamers, who do something similar to what I do. I don't know any that torrent games unless they are trying to rid a game they bought of DRM. (Offtopic aside: Windows Live Gaming blows, if you developers continue to use it, I wont buy any of your games even if they are only a dollar on steam. I just wont play the damn things, there are plenty of great games for cheap that dont harrass me.)

  4. Re:Elder Scroll V sales dropping on Notch Asks For Trial By Combat · · Score: 1

    I still think new vegas was dlc for 3 that grew out of proportion.

    I'll prob still get fallout 4 (If they make it) Because I liked the game, but really hated the engine more then anything.

    Yes, and your point is?

  8. Re:Oh, they can fuck right off. on After Cell-Phone Switch-Off, Anonymous Promises BART Protest · · Score: 1

    I'm guessing that iamhassi meant to say something along the lines of, how many third party cell towers exist. As in cell towers not owned by the service provider. Or cell towers that can be turned off on a whim by a third party.

    I also guess that you knew that when replying with the sarcastic comment. (Sarcasm) Thanks for being so helpful! (/sarcasm)

  9. Re:Horrible Idea on Ask Slashdot: What OS For a Donated Computer? · · Score: 1

    Lol lets give kids Ubuntu, mind as well give them the fucking large hadron collider, they'd be able to use that just as well as ubuntu, and the staff, or lord the fucking staff would flip a major bitch...... If the charity workers cant use ubuntu what are you going to expect children to do with it?

    Teach the adults how to use it?

    Kids are easily more adaptable then adults. Its why you want to teach language to children, they'll learn it better/easier then an adult will.

    LMAO!!

    Physical damage != Software damage.

    That and I used to work at a dealership. They will pay for a lot of stuff under warranty. Even if the vehicle is no longer under warranty, if you make enough noise they will usually accommodate you somewhat, aftermarket parts or not. I saw people who had blown motors due to not changing the oil except every 30 thousand miles, get significant discounts because they made enough noise.

    I'll be the first person to tell someone to stfu when they complain about relevance, or editorial mistakes. This was crap though. Complete and utter crap. The link is nothing more then a slideshow of ten very poorly photoshopped pictures.

    I embed sensitive porn into bad documents. It livens them up quite a bit.

    Got something online in your past that you want to hide?

    I just guessed because of the unique name of yours, having a bunch of other people use your name online is almost genius. You gave yourself plausible deniability.

    ... and then a car commercial... and then a movie trailer... and then a reply of the same car commercial they just showed.

    I avoid hulu unless a stream I want isnt working elsewhere. I have my eyes on you comedy central with your daily show and colbert streams.

  23. Re:How to get a better cable company? on Why Netflix Had To Raise Its Prices · · Score: 1

    Some people rent, in which case a few thousand dollars to move to another city is feasible.

    Might cost more in the long run if your job is significantly further away.
