  1. Re:Pretty Skies! on Games People Shouldn't Play · · Score: 2

    Well yeah, at least in Blood Wake, the sky is clear and unpolluted even after throwing plenty of missiles on other boats, the sky remains amazing. Now try that in a real life situation :)

  2. Re:Interesting and almost off topic on Games People Shouldn't Play · · Score: 2

    Well they tell the truth. Those games had amazing graphics, especially Blood Wake but the gameplay sucked bad.

  3. Re:I don't know about you on U.S. Gov't Sponsors InfoSec Defense Training · · Score: 2

    I'm sure that they're not dumb enough to take anyone.

  4. The fact is on U.S. Gov't Sponsors InfoSec Defense Training · · Score: 1, Troll

    that usually, many of the most brilliant people aren't that interested in school.

  5. Re:Really lame on Do Programming Languages Affect Your Sexual Performance? · · Score: 2

    1) This is an April fools joke
    2) There's a common misconception that girls are as interested by sex as boys
    3) Slashdot is simply a source of Linux news for anarchists, open source fanatics and script kiddies.

  6. Re:keep it in on Declawing Windows: Impossible? · · Score: 0, Flamebait

    "I wonder if /. can go a week without posting a MS bashing story? "

    Actually I don't remember /. going more than a couple of days without posting a MS bashing story.

  7. Re:Design? on Declawing Windows: Impossible? · · Score: 3, Interesting

    hmmm, Linus doesn't think that designing software is the way to go : "the people who think you "design" software are seriously simplifying the issue, and don't actually realize how they themselves work. "

  8. Re:It doesn't really matter on Declawing Windows: Impossible? · · Score: 1, Troll

    not happy with MS? Use Linux, it's not like you don't have any other choice. We've never had so many choices, yet weirdly enough everyone wants to use the same OS.

  9. Re:Corrective lenses make things worse on Monitors for People with Poor Eyesight? · · Score: 2

    aha I always suspected that my lenses where actually making things worst. And now you come and confirm my suspicions. Darn optometrists, anything for a buck.

  10. it was another story a few weeks ago on How To Implement A Database Oriented File System · · Score: 1

    A few weeks ago, a DB filesystem was looked upon by slashdoters as the dumbest idea ever because MS wanted to implement it.

    All of a sudden it's interesting, perhaps all OS's should have a DB file system installed by default.

  11. Re:Oh gggawwwd on Eric Raymond: Why Open Source will Rule · · Score: 2

    I'm stupid to, but guess what? So is my PC.

    Don't waste your time, no matter what you say they won't believe you

  13. Re:My Reasons Include: on Web Surfing Losing Its Luster · · Score: 2

    "- Abuse of Registration practices (forced to register for everything, even WAITING IN LINE hint hint FILEPLANET)"

    It drives me nuts dude. I thought that by now every website would be using Passport or Sun's Liberty. But nah, you have to register with hundreds of websites, come back a month later and you've already forgotten your username/password so you have to register yet again, and finally you give up.

    Oh yes, the Flash stuff drive me nuts and it's pretty confusing.

  14. Re:My Online Time slice by slice on Web Surfing Losing Its Luster · · Score: 2

    hehe mod this up cause I'm pretty sure we're more than two who use this kinda routine.

  15. egocentric attitude on The Myth of the Paperless Office · · Score: 0, Troll

    Oooh reading from a computer screen is a little unconfortable. No problem let's keep cutting down those trees.

  16. Re:I saw the push... on MS: Use the Source, Luke! · · Score: 2

    "Then I got home and talked about the product with some colleages and to my disgust one was using it to develop actual software."

    I guess you won't be using GNOME anytime soon?

  17. Re:Do we need yet another Office Suite? on gobeProductive 3.0 - Office XP killer? · · Score: 2

    Sure, competition is good but not too much competition. One thousands apps who do the same stuff will get us all confused.

    Be Simple.

  18. Do we need yet another Office Suite? on gobeProductive 3.0 - Office XP killer? · · Score: 2

    Seems like everyone and his mother are creating Office Suites nowadays.

  19. Re:It happens all around you on Gateway Testifies To Microsoft's OEM Treatment · · Score: 2

    some colleges in Canada only sell Pepsi.

    And how about Mc Donalds, movie Theaters, etc.?

  20. Re:It happens all around you on Gateway Testifies To Microsoft's OEM Treatment · · Score: 2

    and MS won't penalise OEM's for giving you free anti-virus software.

  21. It happens all around you on Gateway Testifies To Microsoft's OEM Treatment · · Score: 4, Insightful

    Look around you. Some establishments will only sell Pepsi while others only sell Coke.

  22. Re:MS Blames RH on Red Hat CTO Testifies at MS trial · · Score: 2

    Well if they keep going on like that, they'll keep loosing money and eventually fade away. Unless they start doing what I suggest.

  23. Re:MS Blames RH on Red Hat CTO Testifies at MS trial · · Score: 2

    It doesn't matter. To be successfull they need to sell there products even to those who don't actually need it. They need to get people to believe that they need RedHat. It's all about perception.

    Let me remind you that they're still loosing money. Unless they start doing what I suggest, they're doomed or they'll get bought by another company.

  24. Re:The main problem as we see it. on Slashback: Spolsky, Mandrake, Geography · · Score: 2

    TLTR*, how about the Too Lazy To Run *nix syndrome?

  25. I'm confused on Apple Cuts Off Under-18 Darwin Developer · · Score: 2

    I thought that Darwin was Open Source, or at least some people said so. Now I'm kinda confused.
