  1. How is this news? on An Image Site Is Victimizing Countless Women and Little Can Be Done (vice.com) · · Score: 5, Interesting

    This is an opinion piece, about outrage and victimization. How is this tech?
    Why do we have this on slashdot news?

  2. Wrong crowd? on Half Of Teens Think They're Addicted To Their Smartphones (cnn.com) · · Score: 1

    "Addicted to technology" and "If your teens would prefer gaming indoors, alone, as opposed to going out to the movies, meeting friends for burgers or any of the other ways that teens build camaraderie, you may have a problem." You might be describing most of slashdot and the linux crowd?

  3. Re:Just travel on Virtual Reality Experiment Wants To Put White People In Black Bodies · · Score: 1

    Could you say more about your experiences? That sounds interesting to me.

  4. Sensationalized summary on Valve Rolls Out Game Broadcasting Service For Steam · · Score: 1

    Steam isn't aiming at competition with twitch. It may down the road, but not currently, as you only broadcast when you are actively playing. Not like twitch where the stream is always available.

    That summary is a lot of conjecture and assumption.

  5. Re:What century is this? on Sweden Considers Adding "Sexism" Ratings To Video Games · · Score: 1

    Preach brother.

  6. Wait... on Students Show a Dramatic Drop In Empathy · · Score: 1

    who's up?

  9. Re:Piracy clarification on Ofcom Unveils Anti-Piracy Policy For UK ISPs · · Score: 1

    Wow... you know this is the point. The tree of liberty must be refreshed from time to time with the blood of patriots and tyrants. It is its natural manure.

  10. First full face plant? on The World's First Full Face Transplant · · Score: 1

    I read it wrong.

  11. Re:Who's the real 40,000 Ton Metallic Monster? on Feds Question Big Media's Piracy Claims · · Score: 0, Offtopic

    Hmmm... yea... your going to have to MOD PARENT IRONICALLY BRILLIANT.

  12. Lets get some perspective... on Net Neutrality Suffers Major Setback · · Score: 1

    Here are a few very good papers that address all angles of the issue.

    Heads up:

    Consumer Welfare

    Net Neutrality

    I like it.

    It's basically investing.

  17. Re:Professional Game Studio? on How Demigod's Networking Problems Were Fixed · · Score: 1

    Its really easy to talk down to others mistakes.

    Stardock is a great company, ran really well. There one of the leaders on better drm practices... namely no drm. They boffed this one... it happens.

  18. Re:This sucks on Left 4 Dead 2 Announced For November · · Score: 1

    Thats what I was thinking... this seems weird for valve. I'm hoping that there is a ruse to this, or its that they have an expansion or something...

  19. Re:Re-make Thief 2 on Eidos Announces Thief 4 · · Score: 1

    YOU SHUT YOUR MOUTH.

    Thats what we need, another tomb raider.

  20. Re:Work Experience on Go For a Masters, Or Not? · · Score: 1

    No. Getting your masters is bad advice. Work experience big time.

    You need to know where your going to get your masters and on what focus. Whether its business, comp stuff, whatever, you need experience to know though.

    Further more start your own business, and now is the time. There are so many people willing to work for peanuts its ridiculous.
    Any company you work for will not bat an eye at laying you off, even if you've worked to build their company for 5-10 years.

    The only winners are the owners.

  21. Re:Who cares about the length? on RIAA Brief Attacks Free Software Foundation · · Score: 1

    Making the assertion that size matters.

    If you know what I mean.

  22. Wha? on Time Warner Shelves Plans For Tiered Pricing · · Score: 1, Interesting

    Wow... this actually increases my confidence in Time Warner. That they actually listened to public opinion.

  25. Time Warner to give UNLIMITED internet!!! on Time Warner To Offer Unlimited Bandwidth For $150 · · Score: 1

    That title is so bullshit. The spin is so much, I feel sick already.

    The title should have been saying something like "Time Warner to limit internet usage, charging 150$ for full use." Or something similar.
    The current title has marketing spin of a positive connotation... and this is a very poor, and bad thing.
