    There's no point in acting all surprised about it. All the planning charts and demolition orders have been on display at your local planning department in Alpha Centauri for fifty of your Earth years so you've had plenty of time to lodge any formal complaints and its far too late to start making a fuss about it now.

    Yeah affirmative action is the source of all of our woes in this country *rollseyes* I also love how you just had to somehow figure out a way to throw Obamacare in there. Yet again, everything just has to be Obama's fault. I guess that's just another example of affirmative action gone awry huh?

    Your UID is entirely too low for you to actually believe what you're saying, yet it is low enough for you to want to say it. In other words, you sound old and crotchety; those damned whippersnappers with their hula hoops and their pet rocks always messing up my earl grey time! Someone oughtta......
    Someone (you) oughtta realize that relying on people to just do the right thing is a pipe dream and about as likely as banning masturbation or drugs or alcohol. If there is a popular thing (like googlin yer instatweets on yer facepage) that people like doing, then it's gonna happen whether you (or the law) approves or not. I run into this sort of thing all the time, since I am an engineer, and the best solution to human error is to engineer it out if possible, otherwise you design it to fail in a predictable, safe-as-possible manner. If drivers are going to text, tweet, email, and watch cat videos regardless of your personal desires, you supply a manner in which that can be done as safe as possible much like the bowl full of condoms many provide at parties. You know, for when relying on your kids to abstain utterly & miserably fails. I think this product is good step in that direction, but of course YMMV.

    Watching a video is even more unlikely than reading the article, and phenomenally improbable compared to even reading the damned summary. This is Slashdot after all.

  9. Why the hate man! on New Car Heads-Up Display To Be Controlled By Hand Gestures, Voice Commands · · Score: 1

    What have you got against HUDs, man? From a post above you claim reading a road sign isn't "taking your eyes off the road" yet barely moving ones eye to read a floating message that appears to be floating right next to said road sign is. You make no sense. You're hating to be hating is all I can think of. You don't like them, so therefore they shouldn't exist and no one is allowed to like or want them. Also, maybe you should do some re-parsing. You are attempting to lock down a colloquial phrase which is general in nature into a very strict definition. If you're going to be that anal about "keeping your eyes on the road" then might I suggest you open your car door and plant your face directly on the asphalt until your eyes are ON THE ROAD and don't let them leave it no matter the pain! Now see how ridiculous that sounds? That's what your arguments sound like.

    ANYONE feels entitled to vent when you're on the Internet- you're relatively anonymous and there just aren't any real consequences for being a total douchebag. Sure, every once in awhile someone may get a visit from the men in black for threatening the prez or some such but overall no one ever comes after these guys. Slashdot is full of this stuff!

    Shitty try dude. Nowhere in his post did he say anything xenophobic. He simply pointed out cowboy Ted is not really a cowboy. Kind of like how you rightwingers keep swearing up and down that Obama is a Muslim Kenyan. The only difference is we're right and you're wrong :P

  21. Sadly, you'll never talk to "him" again. You were trolled by an AC. He knew it was an asshole statement and just wanted to rip on rednecks, otherwise he would have (probably) logged in. You're a 6 digit though, I'm sure you already know this.

  22. Re:Sinking ship... on Rob Pardo Says Farewell To Blizzard · · Score: 1

    DISCLAIMER: I do not know you. This post will say "you" but I mean you in a general sense and not you personally.

    Your guilds were never strong to begin with. The only reason those 80 people played nice was because many of the big guild leaders were total aspie douchnozzles who held the raids and loot over your head like Damocles Sword. If you didn't kowtow to these guys then you weren't running shit. It didn't even matter if you were good or not. You could be the most epic player on the planet but if he didn't like you or maybe his GF wanted a seat in the raid then you were just out of luck. The term elitist jerk came around because of those guys. When you lock out folks from playing the game as they see fit they tend to leave. Pugging fixed that and didn't take anything away from you unlike what many will claim. You still had your normal raids and heroics. You could still sit in trade all day looking for a tank and then walk your happy ass to the dungeon door as always. Using LFG and LFR takes absolutely zero things away from you but opens it up to those guys you didn't think were good enough. Your guild fell apart because it was already broken. If it wasn't, then you wouldn't be here lamenting the fact your guild died. A tight knit guild would have survived. You didn't say anything specific why your particular guild died, but if it was because of PUGs then you had more problems than you were aware of. I've had 2 guilds die myself. Both were simply because of life. We'd have an awesome team going and the next thing you know, everyone has a job working 12 hour days, had a baby, moved, etc. Now I run a 3 person guild and we do what we want, when we want, and don't worry about the rat race. The stress level dropped so much when I quit worrying about raiding 3 nights a week and keeping my PvP tier fresh and maxxed out. I'll never be epic in that regard but I'll be good enough- and that's fine with me.

  23. ORLY? on Rob Pardo Says Farewell To Blizzard · · Score: 1

    You can call them and get the preorder cancelled. If you're serious that is. Most of the folks like you aren't. You'll see thread after thread on the Wow forums with people quitting left and right but do you know how many times crackheads, alcoholics, and junkies in general say "I quit, this is it. Never again!" Pretty much all of them. It lasts a few days at most and they're right back at their addiction. I've quit wow before. I hate kung fu pandas soooooo fucking much. Guess what I'm doing now? Leveling toons on Moon Guard. I even just RAF'd a $10 account. I think the only thing that could make WoW worse would be Bronies. WoD can't be that bad.

    Bears are the only class I can consistently roflstomp with very little attention payed. I don't know what you managed to do no one else could figure out but bears are still the only class "not viable in pvp". Even prot pallys are better! And that was in Cata. I gave up on pvp in Pandaria. They broke it badly. Hell, I gave up on Pandaria period. I don't care how many people want to point out brewmasters in WC3- Blizz CLEARLY copied Kung Fu Panda. Fuck pandas!
