  1. Re:All sorts of video games on How Close is the Open Entertainment Center? · · Score: 1

    He was not hypothesizing or guessing, he was stating a fact. Whether or not it is beyond your comprehension does not change the fact it is true.

    An emulator is not a rom. Sony does not own an emu written by someone else. It is also legal in many places to own a backup copy of any game you own. So if I say I have a mortal kombat board sitting on my desk in front of me then it is ok for me to download a copy of the mortal kombat rom.

    If you think anyone else is even reading this you can have +100 for being a retard.

    I guess thats why you only post at 1, you aren't too bright.

    No not just like that at all... it doesn't borrow some vague gameplay concepts its a blatant ripoff.

    You just trespassed on my monitor... prepare to be prosecuted!

  7. Re:So what? on Girls not Going into CS · · Score: 2

    Huh? Why wouldn't you do truth tables? Do you not cover logic etc in your CS program?

  8. Quick everyone! on Success Despite College Rejection · · Score: 2

    Drop out of school, did you read that anecdotal evidence? Wow that's powerful stuff!

    Now where is my billion dollars?

  9. Think about it this way on Success Despite College Rejection · · Score: 3, Funny

    Get a new job?

    Nobody is forcing you to work there for that amount. That's like saying "I'm the king of spain and I'm stuck shovelling pig shit for a dollar a day, boy being king sure sucks!"

    You are equating university degree with your crappy job and let me assure you, it's also possible to find many crappy jobs without a degree as well.

  10. Yes on Intel Releases "Fastest Chip Ever" · · Score: 2

    The intel commercial said so therefore it must be true.

  11. A little misleading on Mozilla Adding Spam Filters · · Score: 5, Informative

    The news article makes it sound like this feature is up and running, in reality it is partially phased in - alpha stage stuff.

    It will be great when it's more complete but there is a lot of work to do yet.

  12. Re:Enforceable? on MAME To Become GPL? · · Score: 2

    Same thing in Canada, you are allowed to make a backup copy by law. Nintendo can suck a fat one.

  13. Re:What is this? TV Guide? on Open the Iris: Stargate SG1 Confirms Season 7 · · Score: 1, Troll

    Are you insinuating there is strong character development on that B quality soap-opera of a junk TV series?

    Please.

    Yes because people who like to watch a good looking/sounding movie at home obviously have no life. /rolls eyes

    Quick, call the spelling police! They will be very interested to hear about a message board spelling infraction. This guy is gonna do some hard time for sure!

  20. Please help! on Pentium-Based Macs The Future of Apple? · · Score: 3, Funny

    Please help!

    I am in the roofing business and recently my boss took away my hammer and gave me a handsaw instead. Now it takes MUCH longer to pound in my roofing nails. Saws suck! Who designed these things anyhow? There are sharp bits all along one edge and I often cut my hands as this crazy saw flaps back and forth. =(

    GIVE ME BACK MY OLD HAMMER!

  21. Welcome to the new millenium on Pentium-Based Macs The Future of Apple? · · Score: 3, Informative

    The whole RISC vs CISC argument is completely outdated. There is no such thing as pure CISC anymore. Please get with the times. You may love mac and that's fine but at least use up to date reasons for why mac is superior to pc. That's about as bad as a PC user dumping on macs "cause they only have one mouse button".

  22. Re:Minimum vs. recommended requirements on PCs Losing Out as a Gaming Platform? · · Score: 2

    You don't *HAVE* to have an amazing system to play all the games out there. You may not be able to run your new copy of UT in 1600x1200 in 32 bit colour but big deal.

    I've been hauling a piece of junk system around to lan parties for years now and I play the same games as the guys with the $5000 kits. Incidentally we have observed there is no correlation between amount of money spent and rank in the frag list. ;)

  23. If you want to participare in a public network... on US .gov WHOIS Info Restricted Over Attacker Fears · · Score: 4, Insightful

    If you want to participare in a public network then they shouldn't be hiding whois information. Nobody is saying they can't run their own top secret nework (as I'm sure they already do to some degree) but participation in this giant public network involves some amount of conformance to standards.

    Any information that is so critical to national security shouldn't be on the internet in the first place.

    I think my analogy makes it very clear why I oppose it: it's completely irrelevent. Would you like to initiate slashdot sponsored techie pissing contests so we all know who is /-r4d and who is not?
