  1. Obligatory on Valve Announces Linux-Based SteamOS · · Score: 1

    No more console exclusives, no need to buy three consoles anymore! No need for Windows, OS X or Linux! So long Nintendo, Sony, Microsoft and Apple!

    Yeah, that's not going to happen. I do hope, however, that it will help lower the number of Windows-only titles in the future. As a Nintendo gamer and OS X user, I'm tired of seeing Microsoft-only and Sony-only titles.

  2. Add it to the list on BlackBerry Will Sell Itself For $4.7 Billion · · Score: 1

    Atari, Commodore, Nokia, RIM/BlackBerry.

  3. Re:Feeble minds. on Apple Sells Nine Million iPhones Over Weekend · · Score: 2

    The iPhone 6.

  4. Re:Maybe it's just me, but... on Apple Sells Nine Million iPhones Over Weekend · · Score: 1

    Those sales, even combined, are completely pathetic compared to my own backyard sale. I sold a little over 200 million sand grains in a single day!

    What about "lasers"? /Dr.Evil

    Are you calling me a quack?

  8. Re:You're doing it wrong on Learning To Code: Are We Having Fun Yet? · · Score: 5, Funny

    PHP is a much, much better choice! Everything just fucking works, even when some parameters are wrong and you're mixing variable types all over the place. /duck

  9. Coding on Windows on Learning To Code: Are We Having Fun Yet? · · Score: 3, Funny

    Hello! I see you are trying to create an array which is bigger than the RAM on your computer. Would you like me to order additional RAM on amazon.com for you at the cost of USD$5,452,981,583 or would you rather create a 1 petabyte swap file on your 3 terabyte hard drive? - Clippy

  10. Re:garbage on PCBs Cause Birds To Sing a Different Tune · · Score: 1

    It must go somewhere but it doesn't have to be on Earth.

  11. Alright then! on LucasFilm Combines Video Games and Movies To Eliminate Post-Production · · Score: 2

    Dead or Alive Xtreme Volleyball models, in swimsuits, in all the future movies!

  12. Oh crap it's really happening on LucasFilm Combines Video Games and Movies To Eliminate Post-Production · · Score: 1

    Since a lot of videogames are now being done for cellphones, this means vertical games and vertical movies.

  13. Re:Best is two shifts with some recovery time betw on Ask Slashdot: Does Your Work Schedule Make You Unproductive? · · Score: 1

    If you're in a cube, someone will die.

  14. Nestlé on Conflict Minerals and Cell Phones · · Score: 0

    And yet Nestlé comes in, sucks up all your fresh sources of water and we barely hear about it.

    Woosh.

  16. Re:Homeless? on Homeless, Unemployed, and Surviving On Bitcoins · · Score: 1

    Why can't you move if all your possessions can fit inside a single backpack?

  17. Re:Could not replicate (as many others can't) on iOS 7 Lock Screen Bug Leaves Certain Apps Vulnerable For Access · · Score: 0

    I also cannot replicate the problem with iOS 7.0 (11A465) on my iPhone 3GS.

  18. Homeless? on Homeless, Unemployed, and Surviving On Bitcoins · · Score: 2

    Homeless guys drinking Monster energy drinks? That crap is very expensive.

  19. Internet Explorer 6? on New IE Remote Code Execution Vulnerability Discovered · · Score: 3, Insightful

    Even Microsoft sent flowers to the mock funerals. And now they're digging out the grave to patch a corpse?

  20. Re:New scrollbar style on OS X 10.7? on Firefox 24 Arrives: WebRTC Support and NFC Sharing On Android · · Score: 1

    All the other browsers seem to be able to do it on OS X, Firefox is the exception.

  22. New scrollbar style on OS X 10.7? on Firefox 24 Arrives: WebRTC Support and NFC Sharing On Android · · Score: 4, Insightful

    Can't you morons just display the scrollbar in the normal default style the OS is giving you? That's what I hate about Firefox, it looks like an ugly Windows program on every OS.

  23. Diablo III's auction house sucks on Auction Houses To Be Removed From Diablo III · · Score: 2

    The auction house in World of Warcraft is perfectly usable except for a few minor details, but Diablo III's auction house just plain sucks. I don't care if it is two different development teams, it is still two Blizzard games.

  24. Color e-reader? on Insiders Say B&N Will Launch New Nook,Tablet In October · · Score: 2

    Finally a device with a color e-ink display, pretty please? How about making it work as a computer display, too?

  25. Re:Just windows XP? on With XP's End of Life, Munich Will Distribute Ubuntu CDs · · Score: 1

    And you think someone who uses Windows 7 will know any better? They're only users, not "experts"*.

    * yes, I once had someone tell me I was an "expert in computers" for knowing how to burn an ISO file to a DVD.
