  1. Re:If it was that funny... on Father of DVD Gets Bitter Reward · · Score: 2, Funny

    While the I.T. talent in India cannot be denied, they have reached saturation point for outsourced work. Anyone jumping on the gravytrain now is being sold a lie.
    The greedy corporations who rush to dump their loyal staff so they can post profits of 110 mill rather than 95 mill, deserve to get Dheli belly when it all goes tits up.

  2. Re:Clean that stuff up... on Reverse Graffiti · · Score: 1

    "Eh... That would damage the paint, as the dust particles would be pushed into and rubbed against the paint, leaving many tiny scratches that, when viewed at certain angles in the sunlight, would reveal the message written there even years after the vehicle had been washed. For that reason, astute readers would notice that doing so would not fall under the criteria: if these materials do not damage the surface being cleaned, which I had stated in my original post."

    I wouldn't want to clean your car, if you think running a finger through the dust constitutes damage to the paintwork. FREAK.

  3. I have seen the "graffiti" on Reverse Graffiti · · Score: 1

    From living oppsosite the two uni's, typical response from the cocksucker councillers who have just lost their control.
    There is so much graffiti this is a refreshing change, shame it has to be for a commercial product though.

    Um, because it's a joke, perhaps?

    I think they know about comments and such.

  5. Re:Kiss Technology on Kiss Technology Counters MPlayer GPL Arguments · · Score: 1

    Yes I have owned two Kiss DP-500 players since the day they were available in the UK. Well over a year and no problems at all.

    Thank you, someone else who sees them as a bunch of wound up pedantic assholes. Fuck me I can't even comprehend such a tightarsed attitude.

  7. Who cares on Kiss Technology Counters MPlayer GPL Arguments · · Score: 1

    My KISS player rocks. Who cares a few lines of code are copied, code is built upon code, web site templates copied etc. The only people who will win are the lawyers and that is depressing. Save the courts time for real issues.

    People who encode using QT should be send without trial or charges to Guantanamo Bay.

  9. Re:This was coming all along... on Paypal Charged Under PATRIOT Act · · Score: 1

    And I thought the USA was the land of the free. How the hell is gambling illegal in parts of America, this has suprised me. It's like the RIAA closing down P2P networks, people wil always find a way to swap music and people will always find ways to wash money clean.
    What's next a telephone company sued for providing a terrorist communications network.
    God help you in the USA and your crazy Government.

  10. Re:why? on A College Without Microsoft? · · Score: 1

    The quality of the average CS graduates is very low these days. Anyone worthy can pick up MS OS skills in their own time, I'd rather employ someone well rounded in all areas than another goddamn MSCE drone. Computer studies should be just that, not three years of MS menu navigation.
    MS has it's place and I like it, but the majority of todays CS grads are soft as shite. Spoilt to the point where they do no real thinking.

  11. Re:It's all about the motorcycles. on GTA: Vice City Sells 8.5 Million Copies in 3 Months · · Score: 1

    I agree with AC here, I have not experienced any of the problems you mentioned, PS2 version.
    Best mission in GTA:VC is the one where you have to jump from roof to roof for miles on the motorbike, I ended up making the last jump as my bike was just a fireball with a seat.
    I don't think any of the previous versions beat VC, the aiming of weapons in GTA:3 was annoying and seems to have been improved in VC.
    God, games don't come any better than this for me.
    Also I agree with another poster who wanted Las Vegas for the next episode, that or 60's london.

  12. An Asshat is a person on The Next Level of X-Box Modding · · Score: 1

    who puts "MOD this person down!!!!AAA++++" in the subject of their post. Then proceeds to troll using foul language out of context, whilst posting as anonymous user.
    In summary the lowest form of life.

    I'm so fucking bored. Slashdot sucks.
    Well excuse us, for not making more of an effort to entertain you. Go back to jerking off into the gaping mouth of your dead mother under your bed. Also you are such a lame troll, it's obvious to all of us here that you are a virgin with a B.O problem.

    Have you even seen star wars?

  15. Re:does people still overclock these days? on The Fastest Video Card You Can Buy · · Score: 1

    Lingqi,
    It's not like this Video card only works with Doom3. There are lots of 3d games that can easily suck up all the fps that this new card can deliver. I am looking to upgrade soon from my Hercules Gforce2ultra this looks like a candidate.

    We all know charlie ended up getting the factory so why do you have to be a wise ass and....jesus just get a life or if not end yours.

  18. Re:"piracy" of art or "piracy" of commodity on Uni Students Slammed For Music Swapping · · Score: 1

    You are a wise man, back in the AG days the breadth of music I got exposed to was awesome. At no other period before or since has there been an awesome system like Audiogalaxy was before it got crippled to death through filtering.

    I too bought regular CD's back then, Fuck the greed ridden blinkered industry that takes away a magical gold site like AG was.

  19. Re:Flowers.com on My Short Life As An Unintentional Porn Spammer · · Score: 1

    I hear much of this one you call Michael, mostly the talk is bad. Sounds like someone is trying to make up for a negative real life karma by playing god here.

    My name is YorkshireOne and I have cancelled coporate meetings because of the DBZ Majin Buu saga. I am clean shaven and shower twice a day, I don't use Linux.
    A real man like me feels secure enough to enjoy DBZ for what it is, without having to conform to your herd mentality.

  22. Re:Pay no attention to what's behind the mirror. on Don't Sever A High-Tech Lifeline for Musicians · · Score: 1

    That would put the "Information just wants to be free" crowd out of work

    So I've been saying it for free all these years and others have been getting paid? Information wants to be free until I spend a year creating it.

  23. Re:Cheat! on Quickly Filling Up 150GB of Legal Media Files? · · Score: 1
    On my Windows machine, I've got all my shared files under D:/shared/ , I've also set up (using subst) the virtual drive S: which points towards D:/shared/ . Share both D:/shared/ and S: and I've "doubled" my available file list...

    What you suggest will get you booted and banned from any Direct connect hub, especially ones with high requirements like 100gb of valid shares.
    People like you are a cancer in the file sharing community, you may as well work for the RIAA.
    Take your time, start in the lower rooms and slowly build up a decent collection.

    We will spot your fakeness and we will boot&ban you.

  24. Re:Great! on Why VHS Was Better Than Betamax · · Score: 1

    I have had DVD-R for a year or two, the writers are cheap and the disks getting cheaper. I think we shall have tapes for the purposes of home recording long after pre-recorded tapes stop appearing in the shops. IMHO vhs tapes have a future for those wanting a cheap rewritable medium. I can get four 240min vhs tapes for the price of a decent quality dvd-rw, im prepared to say the tapes will still be around and working long after the dvd-rw disc has been thrown away cause it's worn out.
