  2. Hm.. on Neil Stephenson on Batman Beyond Project? · · Score: 1

    Now even if the Writing is magnificent, does it really matter with the likes of Clooney and O'donnel acting it out?

  4. Damn you! on Classic Gaming Gets Recognition · · Score: 2

    ..So its almost midnight, I've got to work in the morning, and now you've got me BREAKING THE LAW, downloading ROMs and launching into a game of Gauntlet, that I damn well know is not going to end within the next few hours:

    "Valkyrie is about to die!"

    Well, of course I'd be Valkyrie.. Who else?
    I DEMAND that slashdot remove those links to those MAME sites before MORE innocent country & western-pop-stars are lured into a life of SIN. Its too late for me.

  9. New Laws? on Paper: "Cybercrimes: A Practical Approach..." · · Score: 2

    Now how many new laws do we need?.. I mean don't most things online/digital relate to something IRL that allready has a law attached? Web defacement is vandalism etc.. (except it's even easier to clean than paint vandalism..) Do we need a ton of new 'cyber laws"?
