  1. Re:What caused his downfall? on Alleged eBay Hacker Goofs up and Goes to Jail · · Score: 0

    Completing a collage at 18 does not make you smart. I remember making collages during art period in 4th (or was it 5th) grade.
    He may be good with computers but it is pretty clear he has trouble dealing with other humans and the real world.

  2. Isn't this a given? on Movie Industry Cries All the Way to the Bank · · Score: 0

    Someone please tell Jack that since 1959 the population as grown and so has the number of movie theatres.

  3. Re:to bad so sad on Telecommuters and Downtime? · · Score: 0

    Too bad you post is a flame to a flame. Yes, I know that makes this post even worse. :-)

  4. Re:The best solution is... on Telecommuters and Downtime? · · Score: 0

    The same goes for you. Read the last sentence of my original post.

  5. The best solution is... on Telecommuters and Downtime? · · Score: 0

    ...to get off your ass, shower, get dressed, and drive to work! Forced to take a day off? Thats bull shit. My computer still works when the network goes down. Are you saying there is nothing you can do when the network goes down? If thats true then maybe you should not be telecommuting.

  6. You get what you pay for? on SourceForge Terms of Service Change, Users Unhappy · · Score: 0, Funny

    Lets see...I don't pay for Slashdot. OK now I know what you mean.

  7. Excuse me... on Collateral Damage · · Score: 0

    ...while I go puke! Can people stop relating eveything to Sept. 11? These are simply far fetched action films. Thats all. Nothing more. So keep your patriotic bull shit to yourself!

  8. Re:Opera on mozilla.org Releases Mozilla 0.9.8 · · Score: -1, Offtopic

    Opera is great. It is also much less fat and bloated as the sluggish Mozilla.

  9. Why it took so long to post on Free Software Magazine · · Score: 0

    Because there is an article with negative opinions about SourceForge owned by VA Linux which also owns TrashDot.

  10. Is someone in need of some cash? on Buy John Romero's Ferrari On EBay · · Score: 0

    Does anyone else here feel this guy has a huge ego? What will he auction next? His underwear?

  11. Is one of the guys Chris Peterson? on In Line for Episode II · · Score: 0

    This reminds me of a sitcom starring Chris Elliott. What was the name of the show? Oh yeah, now I remember, it was called Get A Life.

  12. Late Night with Conan OBrien on Attack of the Clones · · Score: 0

    Conan said that Lucas wanted NSYNC to help C3PO look less gay. I think Lucas picked the right people to do the job.

  13. STARLIGHT on Transatlantic Gigabit Gaming.. err, Research · · Score: 0

    "I really like the word starlight. Maybe we can name our project starlight. Okay everyone come up with a name that gives us the acronym STARLIGHT. Yea, that would be cool. hehehehe"
    -- founder of Starlight

  14. Borland failed? on How To Make Software Projects Fail · · Score: 0

    Wow, I did not know this. Why didn't someone tell me. I better stop using their compilers. Damn.

  15. redirect the output? on Rent Music Over the Net · · Score: 0

    to listen to the music you rent i assume you will be sending it to your speakers. can you simply send it to another computer's audio input and record it to a non-crippled format? sure its not the same digital quality, but at least you got the music forever. besides someone will come up with a way to break whatever scheme is being used.

  16. is this really unexpected on Microsoft, DoJ Reach Tentative Settlement · · Score: 0

    OJ gets away with murdering his ex-wife and now MS gets away with murdering their competitors. This should not come unexpected in the good old United States of America, Inc. Land of the guilty poor and the innoncent rich.

  17. This is fine but... on Ultimate Guide to Hosting a LAN Party · · Score: 0

    I don't wanna host. Where is the best damn guide for those attending a LAN party?

  18. Nothing to worry about... yet on Michael Jackson Releases Uncopyable CD · · Score: 0

    I think it will be OK if they only do this for CDs by bands like Michael "I Wish I Was White" Jackson. Lets just hope they don't do this for the bands that make good music.

  19. Ignore the article on ATI & Nvidia Duke It Out In New Gaming War · · Score: 0

    Write code twice? You obviously are new to gaming and programming. Have you heard of Direct3D, OpenGL, and Glide? These are API's that programmers use. For the most part the video card drivers will take care of the boards features. I doubt programmers will worry about pixel shader 1.3 or 1.4.

  20. You are not forced to do anything! on MSDN Subscriber Forced to use Passport · · Score: 1

    If you are concerned about privacy then wait for your quarterly discs to arrive or sign up using company information.

  21. You know what this means? on Disney and Anime Plagiarism? · · Score: 1

    It means Disney is as unoriginal as the video game market. Wake up! This stuff happens is almost every industry. Where the hell have you been?

  22. Microsoft ate my Ballmers! on Ballmer Calls Linux "A Cancer" · · Score: 1

    Should we have expected anything less from Steve Baldmer?

  23. did you even read the article? on Head-Mounted Mouse · · Score: 1

    "make the Quake experience more immersive"? The answer is NO. As you move your head you move the pointer. If you look behind you then you can not still be looking at the monitor, now can you? It is also not their intention to make games more "immersive". Why don't you reand the damn article.

  24. How about a real FAQ! on The New Handspring Visor: The Edge · · Score: 1

    A real question that should be on their fake FAQ is "Can you use the flip cover AND the springboard adapter at the same time?"

  25. Ralph Baer is NOT the father of home video games on The History of Pong · · Score: 1

    This guy thinks he is the father of home video games? As if he decides the rules for who is the father of anything. His logic for determining that he is the father is pretty messed, but hey it works for him. Did this guy even design a game or did he just do the hardware to hook up to a home TV? According to him you can not just build something to be the father. You must design, build, and bring it to market. Yeah, okay, whatever. Sounds like he just wants another 15 mins of fame.
