  1. Re:Game quality has lagged... on Has the Console Arms Race Stalled? · · Score: 1

    I've heard a lot of people say that. I could really never get into daggerfall, what makes you say it's better than morrowind? (Which I think was probably the best game I've ever played)

  2. Hindsight 20/20 on Creator of China's Great Firewall Pelted With Shoes · · Score: 1

    should have thrown knives...

  3. Re:Strong enough to make cables for Space elevator on Will Graphene Revolutionize the 21st Century? · · Score: 1

    ... which is why we use spaceships to travel around stars. Orders of magnitude difference in speed. As for real interstellar travel, it's much much harder but not out of reach. Project orion is one of the better ideas I've heard of.- basically a spacecraft powered by the detonation of nuclear weapons, capable of getting from 5-10% the speed of light. You don't have to go faster than light to get to another solar system.

    Because we haven't had the required technologies until now maybe?

  5. Re:Why? on TI vs. Calculator Hobbyists, the Next Round · · Score: 1

    http://xkcd.com/768/ They're rediculously overpriced for such cheaply manufactured hardware. I can buy an xbox for less than a TI84.

  6. Re:Gotta Love it on Why IT Needs To Change for Gen Z · · Score: 1

    Hell, with the idiots out there you're probably going to be compromised anyway. All this is is playing for time.

  7. Gotta Love it on Why IT Needs To Change for Gen Z · · Score: 1

    You've got to love how every article like this out there assumes Generation Z has any clue about technology. Most of the younger (10-20) people I know have less of an idea about what technology is (let alone how to operate it) than I did when I was 5. If external devices are allowed on your network, you are going to be compromised.

  8. Re:I feel like trolling... on Preliminary Benchmarks: Unity vs. Gnome-Shell · · Score: 1

    Check out xfce. Quite a lot like classical gnome 2 but lighter.

  9. Re:no substitute for the real thing on Ask Slashdot: DOSBox, or DOS Box? · · Score: 1

    Do you know what wine stands for? Wine is not an emulator. If it was an emulator, you wouldn't be getting near native speeds. It is in fact a compatability layer (as they call it)

    Fwaaaaaaaaaah!

  14. Re:Is that legal? on Android Honeycomb Will Not Be Open Sourced · · Score: 1

    Yes, it is under the gnu general public license, no it is not GNU software. There's a difference.

    No morrowind!? But they nominated fallout 3? Seriously...

  22. Re:Still think Wikileaks knows what they're doing? on Leaked Doc May Have Forced US To Speed Up Bin Laden Raid · · Score: 1

    Here I was thinking that drug use wasn't considered a felony offence. And are you sure about the communist party affiliation thing? I thought that kind of shit stopped when the red scare stopped (or at least when the soviet union fucking collapsed). But I agree with you totally about voter registration, corruption, and turnout problems. That kind of stuff should've been fixed years ago.

    Not universal? What, are you talking about how convicted felons can't vote?

  24. Re:And watch... on Osama Bin Laden Reported Dead, Body In US Hands · · Score: 1

    Again, I'd have to agree. In the end, very little if anything in reality changes- only the perception of reality in the minds of the many.
