    Regardless of what they "would" do, they do give games mature ratings. Arguing that rating are good is irrelevant. Lieberman wasn't arguing these games should be rated, because they already are. He was saying that the entertainment companies shouldn't be creating these games at all.

  19. Re:Bob Saget and Dominos on Domino Day '02 Ends with a New World Record · · Score: 1
    I remember one time on America's Funniest Home Videos (back in the day, of course, when it was hosted by the King of Cool, Bob Saget) they had this one where two guys spent all night at a video store stacking up empty boxes. They covered the floor, counters, and racks with those semi-transluscent VHS boxes and knocked 'em all down with one super huge domino effect.

    The bummer part was when some dude who got whacked in the crotch won the grand prize for the show.

    Hmm, 'VHS box dominos' has skill and excitment, but 'Dude Getting Wacked In The Crotch' has a dude getting wacked in the crotch...

  23. Re:more slashdot immaturity on Microsoft Alternative in Extremadura, Spain · · Score: 1
    "Overall, a very good and balanced article."

    So it's a good article and balanced because it's pro-GNU/Linux and anti-MS.

    Yep, because as we all know, balanced means all things are of equal value. It couldn't be that Linux is working better for them than Windows. Pffft, a government switching 100,000 computers to Linux, i don't know HOW they managed to make that sound pro-linux.

    Come on. No article is completely balanced but Slashdot seems to put a pro-Linux skew on everything. I like Linux too but I'd rather see it to be unbiased rather than have an immature hatred of everything MS. I mean, I see most stuff that MS did was negative, but Slashdot even managed to put an anti-MS tilt on an article saying that Win2k with SP3 was secure, saying that it took three service packs to do that. Linux patches things all the time too, and there's nothing wrong with patches to fix holes! But come on, please give some unbiased feedback. If it is unbiased I'm sure it will come out pro-Linux, but it doesn't have to be Pro-GNU/Linux Anti-Microsoft on _every single article_.

    Yeah, that's exactly the kind of biased article you expect from slashdot. Wait... front page article in the Washington Post you say? The slashdot story was just quoting from it? Oh, well I guess you're full of crap then.

  25. Re:For a company with 5% market share... on The Nation of Macintosh? · · Score: 1
    Slashdot spends *a lot* of time talking about Apple. I'm not entirely sure how Uncle Steve built his company to attact so much attention, but it just seems that we talk about it a lot.

    Guess what, linux has even less market share (on the desktop at least) and slashdot talks about it even more. Could it be because they're both important, innovative operating systems? Could we be talking about apple because it's become the largest desktop unix over-night? Or because of their work in open source and (open) standards creation?
