  1. Conversions on Dave Gibbons On the Forthcoming Watchmen Movie · · Score: 4, Insightful

    It will probably have as much to do with the comic book as Starship Troopers had to do with the Sci-Fi classic.

    Keep in mind, there wasn't a whole, whole lot of action in Watchmen, & a lot of the intricacies of the "superheroes" relationships will probably be glossed over.

  2. Re:What's the story here? on Street Fighter IV to Hit PS3, 360, and PC, Not Wii · · Score: 2, Funny

    Yeah, I can't stand fun games either, who does Nintendo think they are?

  3. Re:Meanwhile... on IRS Pushes for New Reporting at Expense of Privacy · · Score: 1

    Oh no, I was definitely wrong about my previous statement & should have actually looked it up instead of relying on something I apparently heard 8 years ago. They both however do engage in some pretty shady tax practices.

  5. Re:Meanwhile... on IRS Pushes for New Reporting at Expense of Privacy · · Score: 1

    Well, Wal-Mart & Microsoft pay no appreciable taxes, so you can start with them. No, I'm not googling it for you.

  6. Wow on Getting Rid of Staff With High Access? · · Score: 1

    So you have a new job lined up in 4 weeks & they are going to let you soak up cash until then? Sounds like you are working for a bunch of morons.

    Slashdot FTW.

    Also, you could do a lot of mental planning for your new job in 4 weeks time.

  7. Re:Dear Susan Schwab: on US Plots "Pirate Bay Killer" Trade Agreement · · Score: 2, Funny

    Republicans & Hollywood Democrats, big surprise there.

  8. Re:Keep fighting, but be realistic on Video Game Actors Say They Don't Get Their Due · · Score: 3, Insightful

    Exactly, you're a (non-singing) voice, get over yourself.

    He's bitching about getting paid 100k for speaking lines that he didn't write to begin with into a mike. What a fucking tool.

  9. Re:Spoiiler Free ...HA! on Spoiler-Free Review of Indiana Jones · · Score: 1

    I guess you liked Gangs of New York too?

  10. Re:sigh on Fable 2 Follow Up a "Significant Scientific Achievement"? · · Score: 1

    Dungeon Keeper II is probably one of the best PC games ever made. Seriously.
    You can get it here if interested.

  11. Re:Promises, promises on Fable 2 Follow Up a "Significant Scientific Achievement"? · · Score: 1

    Not sure about Dungeon Keeper, but Dungeon Keeper 2 plays fine on my XP gaming rig.

  12. Re:In Italy on New 'Phlashing' Attack Sabotages Hardware · · Score: 1

    No, but the fallout from that would be hilarious, wouldn't it?

  13. Re:In Italy on New 'Phlashing' Attack Sabotages Hardware · · Score: 2, Interesting

    Hell, my ISP does the same thing now. The phone support tech freaked out when I told them I was in the modem's management console. Apparently, you're not supposed to upgrade the firmware on your own.

    And no, I'm not going to tell you who my ISP is. :D

  14. War on Pedos on Senators OK $1 Billion for Online Child Porn Fight · · Score: 2, Funny

    Well, if the War on Drugs or the War on Terrorism are any indication then 1/4 of the population of the US will be fucking / abusing minors in 4 years.

  15. Re:Machine-ASSISTED voting is cool on Dutch Voting Machines De-Certified · · Score: 0

    The voting population of Canada is a fraction of the voting population of the USA.

  16. Re:I'd never heard of Project Orion but... on DARPA Celebrates 50 Years of Pushing the Envelope · · Score: 1

    Someone has been reading too much Vernor Vinge. Don't they know you have to be able to create bobbles first.

  17. Re:there are lots of uninformed govt employees on Woman Indicted In MySpace Suicide Case · · Score: 1

    In other words you can't make a valid rebuttal so you decide to start insulting. Nice.

  18. Re:this is not trolling what she did on Woman Indicted In MySpace Suicide Case · · Score: 1

    In *your* informed mind it can't set a precedent against "Trolling". That's great, but means nothing. I'm much more worried about an uninformed government employee, thanks.

  19. Re:Back To Reality on Woman Indicted In MySpace Suicide Case · · Score: 1

    Oh hell, you weren't the original poster, sorry about that.

    I definitely could see a (emotional?) child abuse charge being valid.

    I'm pretty sure you are incorrect about the platonic adult / minor relationship.

  20. Re:Back To Reality on Woman Indicted In MySpace Suicide Case · · Score: 1

    And while I won't say that it's murder Actually, you did. That's whole reason I replied to your nonsense.

    are there any laws against talking someone into jumping off a bridge? No there's not. Even if said person is crazy as a shit-house rat.

    If it's against the law for me to go online posing as a 14-yr old to lure a 13-yr old girl into a "relationship" It's illegal for you to proposition a minor for sex. Having contact with a minor isn't illegal, yet.

    but the laws should be written to prevent an adult from contacting a minor online, especially under a false identity and with malicious intent That's a slipperly slope you're trodding there Mr.I Hate The 1st Amendment.

  21. Re:Kids on What To Do With Old Laptops? · · Score: 1

    Yeah, I was going to suggest the same. Hell, he can send me 4 of them if he'd like, I'll pay shipping. My nephews would love them.

  22. Re:Clinical depression on Woman Indicted In MySpace Suicide Case · · Score: 2, Interesting

    You say that as a joke, but she if she was as fucked in the head as everyone is saying, then let me ask a few questions:

    1.) Why was she on the internet unsupervised?

    2.) If she had such debilitating depression, was she seeing a therepist?

    3.) If it had been a "real" boy would this have even made the local news?

  23. Re:Back To Reality on Woman Indicted In MySpace Suicide Case · · Score: 1

    References? Case law? Oh that's right you don't have any because you're spouting bullshit.

    It's harassment at best.

  24. Re:Non-lethal? on China Buying US Directed Sound 'Weapon' · · Score: 1

    160 db most certainly will not kill you. I've been to SPL competitions where if that was the case, I'd be dead.

  25. Re:Gotta keep them upiddy Tibetans in line. on China Buying US Directed Sound 'Weapon' · · Score: 1

    Do earplugs / ear protectors not work vs. these things? If they do then it will basically work for the 1st protest & then never again.

    I have absolutley no problem selling the chinese snake-oil.
