  1. Re:Vicious circle on Unreal Tournament 3 For Linux Is Officially Dead · · Score: 0

    Um Steam works pretty well, I'm sorry if you use it on Linux, trust me before the stable Steam client was on Linux I used Wine and Crossover game libs to make it work and knew it wasn't always stable, don't expect a native Windows client TO be. Works great on XP and Win 7, I don't know what your smoking, but I suggest letting off :D

  2. Being super SERIAL here... on Amazon Fake Products and Fake Reviews · · Score: 0

    I wonder if anyone has tried to buy any of these fake items to just see if anything would happen lol. I mean the ladybugs are only 24.05 (4500 lady bugs), XD. Hilarious stuff.

  3. Re:Wow on A Third of World's Spam From One Russian Man · · Score: 0

    How do you go over 100 percent spam? Thats mathmatically impossible. 100 percent is everything. You can multiply or modulate by higher percentages, such as 110% markup of a 50 dollar item, but the product itself cann be more than 100 percent or in this case 8/8. Idk... XD

  4. I dont think this is ever possible on A Mind Made From Memristors · · Score: 0

    Consider this. You may make fun of this for its matrix reference but hear me out. Because an artificual brain is built on rules, on parameters, it will never* function like our brain does. Even without a social upbringing we would learn creatively by our 5 senses. Because these senses are biologically innate from day 1, you can't duplicate that sensory perception and its synapses that feed the brain. Sure, we could tell it input X,Y,Z, and allow it to "learn" based on parameters, but its still a system built on walls, rules, and contained input, despite any creative output. Also take into part the concept of instincts, souls, and the fact no two brains are a like. Trying to sum up all the creativeness of every single brain on the planet is nigh impossible. Do I doubt we will be able to simulate some functions of a brain? No, but I doubt it will ever reach the biological power of the cognitive human brain. No matter what you "teach" it, it is still a processor, with parameters.

    Am I missing something here or did you mean 2/3? If not you must be a magician! 2 2/3 of the worlds spam is incredible!

  6. umm on Windows 7 Phone Gets Jailbreak Tool · · Score: 1, Informative

    It's Windows Phone 7, not "Windows 7 Phone"...you think slashdot would get that right.

  7. hmmm on Facebook's 'Like This' Button Is Tracking You · · Score: 0

    Its the bloody internet, get over it you paranoid twats...What is it hurting that they show you ads tailored to something you like. I sure as hell don't want to see "enlargement" pills ads, I'd rather see an ad from something I like on facebook. It's not like my whole day is ruined because of ads. Don't click on them, get a grip sheeeeesh....

  8. Re:Wow, not even the first example is right on The 5-Year Console Cycle Is Dead · · Score: -1, Troll

    Maybe if you stop acting like a twat as if the whole article was shit, you could calm down. I will insert a footnote in every article to account for every countries release date for you. Newsflash, this is primarily an American based tech blog.

  11. Re:Wine on Steam Not Coming To Linux · · Score: 0

    Crossover Games works pretty well for me, with great support on the forums and periodic updates to the client. Yes wine is wine, but Crossover games is a bit more tailored for usabiilty / stability in general. Yes, I've had a few crashes in TF2, but generally worked very well for me.

    Does this mean my patent for being able to see anyone for any damn reason will be granted?

  13. Re:Valve... on Steam Prompts OS X Graphics Update · · Score: 0

    No one even bothered to mention using Crossover? I use it on Arch Linux and also ubuntu for Steam and some of the popular games (TF2 for one) work fairly well on my 8800gtx despite occasion crashes every now and then

  14. Re:Huh? on Officials Use Google Earth To Find Unlicensed Pools · · Score: 0

    Wow, you somehow seemed to completely miss the point. Did you see my main concern was the VALIDITY of the photograph itself? Our pool was approved , and over a year later of not being there, google earth still shows it, raising the point of if the pictures they are getting are even VALID or CURRENT. Way to overthink that one sir :)

  15. Huh? on Officials Use Google Earth To Find Unlicensed Pools · · Score: 1, Interesting

    How can this be considered acurate when the satellite image of my house still contains our pool that has been ripped down for over a year? I sure hope they check the date on the satellite imaagry if they even can see that (not sure if you can). Using unsolictated tools to that arn't officially sanctioned for use like this is sorta ridiculous. Not in a privacy sense, as it is public images, but in a sense on a basis on how feasbile it is as proof when its not a standard tool for that purpose.

  22. Re:Keep hating Microsoft though... on Apple Facing New Antitrust Investigation · · Score: 0

    "This case is that Apple is using it's "monopoly" on music sales to limit Amazon's ability to sell music. Namely, by demanding that the music labels cannot give preferential pricing to a third party without offering it on Apple's store as well. If a music label wants to make a track of the week 70 cents on Amazon, it also becomes 70 cents on iTunes." Exactly, what if someone went after walmart for selling cheaper items? Its called competition asshats...If I find a store that sells item cheaper, I will go buy it from there. IF amazon sells cheaper music then I will buy from them. Apple cannot dictate that it's unfair something is cheaper somewhere else. Go join all the unhappy parents at best buy ...
