  1. Re:Question of the Day on Bill Gates Doesn't Work At Microsoft Anymore · · Score: 1

    I'm not sure what assimilating a chair is but I sure hope it's not the same as what these kids are doing to this ottoman. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=xEk2qMKysf4

  2. Re:Can You Spot the Difference? on Bill Gates's New Version of the Einstein Letter · · Score: 1

    Because we all know what happens when you just give a wad of cash to a drug addict or compulsive gambler and tell them "Do whatever you want with it"...

  3. Re:As they should be. on Apple iAd Drawing Antitrust Scrutiny · · Score: 1

    Except they would be anti-competitors instead. A competitor would work hard to beat you in a foot race while a anti-competitor would break your leg before the race.

  4. Re:The Original Mortal Kombat Movie on Why Are Video Game Movies So Awful? · · Score: 1

    The first movie was great. The second movie was horrible. They just took a bunch of fight scenes and stitched them together.

  5. Biggest Announcement on Apple Announces iPhone 4 · · Score: 0, Troll

    Sadly, the biggest announcement for most people was "Farmville on iPhone". Second place being "iPhone available in white!". Every other feature Apple announced has already been done by someone else.

  6. Re:Those who don't learn from history... on Blizzard Boss Says Restrictive DRM Is a Waste of Time · · Score: 1

    The solution is so simple. Make a good game and sell it at a fair price and people will buy it in droves. They need to stop protecting hypothetical unit sales at inflated prices.

  7. Re:Well, that's all folks. on Intel Considers Hardware Acceleration For Google's WebM Format · · Score: 1

    It makes me wonder if Google purposely released a vague and poorly written specification for VP8 just to make it hard on MPEG-LA to search through for any patent violations.

  8. Re:yay? on Google Releases Chrome 5.0 For Win/Mac/Linux · · Score: 3, Informative

    When you type in a URL directly to the address bar do you input "http://www.slashdot.org" or "www.slashdot.org"? Personally I think it's fine to leave out http and only display the protocol if it is different like https, ftp, etc... Of course I have updated to the latest version of Chrome and STILL see the http in the address bar so I don't even know what the fuss is all about.

    Just updated and http:/// still shows up for me on Windows 7 x64.

  10. Re:Still Cheaper Than Ridiculously Expensive AT&am on Sprint's $199 HTC EVO 4G Gets Release Date of June 4 · · Score: 1, Informative

    SERO is old employee referral plan which is no longer available for new sign ups and restricted from using any Android or WebOS phones. The new employee referral plan called EPRP which is about 2x the cost of SERO (still cheaper than any other plan out there) has no phone restrictions.

  11. Re:LOL on Wikipedia Is Not Amused By Entry For xkcd-Coined Word · · Score: 0

    This is what happens when you let a bunch of random self absorbed schmucks think what they are doing is actually important to the world.

    While I'll use wikipedia as a starting reference point but lets face it, if you use Wikipedia as any sort of authoritative reference, you're an idiot. I say this because every person I know that uses wikipedia as a reference is in fact an idiot.[citation needed]

  12. Re:Just a thought on Apple Loses Another 4th-Gen iPhone · · Score: 0

    were protected from the confusion of too much choice in applications

    Yeah, because the 50,000 or so on the App Store last I checked is a terribly small number and indicates a horrible lack of choice ::Eyeroll::

    Whether its 5 apps or 50,000 apps, Apple is still the one that decides which ones you can install.

  15. Re:Games too on Is Apple's Attack On Flash Really About Video? · · Score: 1

    Apple created a artificial restriction to make cross platform development harder. Sure cross platform development has never been easy due to real technical reasons but Apple didn't have to go and make it more difficult.

  16. Missing Feature on Looking At Google's Flashified Chrome · · Score: 1

    What I want to know is have they implemented forward slash '/' for search?!?!?
