  1. Re:I'm an ok poker player on US Outlaws Online Gambling · · Score: 1

    People were doing it long before Moneymaker won the WSOP. Infact, in some ways it's more difficult now sine there is so much more literature on the topic. A lot of people say the skill level of the average player has risen in the midst of all this.

    Fine, keep the degenerates out of your tournaments but let them into my cash games!

  4. Re:Source on New Auto-Seeding Torrent Server Released · · Score: 1

    Did I say or imply "duh"? The "blow your fucking mind" part was a joke. If you thought I actually meant that as an insult then I can't believe you bothered replying to such a moron (me).

    The app IS the source code......or did I just blow your fucking mind?

    So, what, about 20 US dollars?

  7. Re:The Dharma Initiative on Irish Company Claims Free Energy · · Score: 1

    That's exactly what I was thinking.

    God...when is that show coming back on???

  8. Re:Is it marketing on Irish Company Claims Free Energy · · Score: 4, Funny

    Well, the site is still up from a Slashdotting...which is quite suspicious.

    Boat ride from Lebanon to Canada? Really? That's a long trip

  10. Re:Buy a copy of windows on Options for 'Fixing' A Pirated Copy of Windows · · Score: 0, Offtopic

    Haha, funniest comment I've read on /. in a while.

    Haha......yea...what you said. :)

  12. Re:Shock! on Lead PHP Developer Quits · · Score: 1

    Try and get someone who says "I could care less" to tell you if they mean that sarcastically or not. 99% of the time they say no.

    Unless you have a modern system that doesn't have a floppy drive.

  14. Re:Great, yet another voice to add to the chatter on New Video Venture from Skype Creators · · Score: 1

    I should mention, XBMC = XboxMediaCenter. An open-source app for the XBox.

  15. Re:Great, yet another voice to add to the chatter on New Video Venture from Skype Creators · · Score: 1

    Re #2. XBMC does this quite well actually (with the obvious exclusion of DRM'ed media). It uses mplayer internally to play video so it supports practically every format mplayer does (I think a few obscure formats may not be compiled into their build...though this may have changed).

    Of course, this solution isn't for the average user but it's certainly well within the grasp of the average Slashdotter.

    So...they give you money to buy it?

  17. Re:Ding dong, the witch is dead on Enron's Kenneth Lay Dies · · Score: 1

    So....you're saying that you are a borderline idiot?

    Thanks for setting me straight. To think, I actually used to like that movie.

    Thanks for fixing my (and others) opinions!

    It is like trying to recover data from /dev/null.


    Funny, that's how I think of my wife too.
  22. Re:Everyone but you... on Undetectable Rootkits Through Virtualization? · · Score: 1

    WTF do thin clients have to do with virtualization? Virtualization is useful for servers, not thin clients.

    Especially when these people are in the freaking express lane. I swear, they may as well have 75 items in their card if they're writing a check.

  24. Re:People will reject it on Biometric Payment Arrives in a Store Near You · · Score: 1

    The problem with that is, it's more steps. You can't get VC funding for something that's more tedious than the way it's done now...it won't sell.
