  1. Re:Gamespot says no. on Grand Theft Auto IV Unveiled On 360 · · Score: 1

    I sent my Xbox controller to Africa. They said it fed a family of 4 for over a year.

  2. Re:Captain Obvious to the rescue! on Jack Thompson Weighs in on Oblivion · · Score: 1

    The nude texture was NOT a male texture.
    However, the texture that was modified IS a male texture. The mod takes the male "over-the-nude" (basically nothing) texture and overwrites the female "over-the-nude" (bra) texture. So yes, the basic procedure was taking a male texture and applying it to a female texture.

  3. Re:Racial implications? on Jack Thompson Weighs in on Oblivion · · Score: 1

    I think he means that the Orcs look way too ugly. Clearly Bethesda has something against Orcs, those filthy racists.

  4. Re:Jack Thompson on Jack Thompson Weighs in on Oblivion · · Score: 1

    Well, if you look at the facts, the number of documented AIDS cases in the world has grown proportionately to the amount of violence in videogames. So if Jack succeeds in banning violence in videogames, then he'll have effectively cured AIDS. Right?

  5. Re:And what lesson should they learn for Hot Coffe on Jack Thompson Weighs in on Oblivion · · Score: 1

    No, just send in a friendly NPC to tell them that the enemy is over in Iran.
    Although, most FPS players probably wouldn't know what to do with a "plot".

  6. Re:And what lesson should they learn for Hot Coffe on Jack Thompson Weighs in on Oblivion · · Score: 1

    Masturbation makes me want to shoot someone.

    Ew.

  7. Re:The Breakdown & The Irony on Apple Defeats RIAA and France In Same Day · · Score: 1

    Well if you're an artist who's upset about pennies, then you should be upset at the record execs. Instead of driving their shiny new sports car to their summer home, they could be driving their slightly older sports car to their slightly smaller summer home, and give you 1 cent more for each song.
    So, the point isn't that piracy is right, or that piracy doesn't hurt anyone, but this:
    Record execs saying pirates hurt the artists is like the pot calling the silverware black.

  8. Re:The Breakdown & The Irony on Apple Defeats RIAA and France In Same Day · · Score: 1

    And again, you've missed the point. He wasn't saying anything about stealing being right or wrong at any time (arguments about copyright infringment and theft aside). He was saying the EXECS are in the wrong for claiming that the musicians are the ones being hurt by piracy when the execs are taking so much money for themselves.

  9. Re:The Breakdown & The Irony on Apple Defeats RIAA and France In Same Day · · Score: 1

    I don't think his point was that it's okay to steal from the rich. I think he was pointing out that it's wrong to say we're causing these poor artists to starve, when we're actually hurting (slightly) the execs.

  10. Re:Only one Dead or Alive that matters... on DOA Coming to the Theater Near You · · Score: 1

    I think i'm going to have to see this. One of the IMDB Quotes from the movie:
    Quotes:
    Psychotic Beggar: I choose you, Pikachu!
    [the beggar proceeds to beat the crap out of the policemen]

  11. Re:I totally agree on Colbert New Comic-in-Chief · · Score: 1

    Yes! Preach on, brother! And in response to global warming, it's those darned pirates! Here's a graph that proves it.

    I bet I get modded down for this, too, because these liberally biased slashdotters can't handle the truth!

  12. Re:Great.... on US Intensifies Fight Against Child Pornography · · Score: 0, Troll

    Try telling that to George W. and see how fast you get thrown in Gitmo.

  13. Re:Obligatory Futurama reference... on Married In Oblivion · · Score: 2, Funny

    But we all know that marriage is defined as being between one man and one woman, and since women never play video games, you can never get married in an MMORPG. Duh.

  14. Re:Bush's previous appointments / plans on Bush Admin. Appoints Civil-Liberties Officer · · Score: 1

    But it seems we can have both relaxed environment regulations AND high gas prices.

  15. Gasp! on Overlooked VoIP Security Issues? · · Score: 4, Insightful

    An unencrypted protocol is susceptible to man-in-the-middle attacks? Who'da thunk?

  16. Re:Try the 'in-your-shoes' test on Suing Google Over Pagerank · · Score: 1

    Well, where I come from, K doesn't come before A. ;)

  17. Re:Not so surprising on Mars Rover Spirit Down a Wheel · · Score: 1

    I have no mod points at the moment, but I'd just like to say: Flaimbait? This was actually a clever joke, and I've no idea why anyone would consider this to be flaimbait. Good show.

  18. Re:Try the 'in-your-shoes' test on Suing Google Over Pagerank · · Score: 1

    I went there, and I noticed in the little drop down menu of search engines, Google is in there. However, it wasn't at the very top, and I'd like them to write a paper on their method of ranking search engines.

  19. Re:My experience on Financial Responsibility == Terrorism? · · Score: 1

    Four! Four!

  20. Re:My experience on Financial Responsibility == Terrorism? · · Score: 5, Insightful

    I actually kind of liked the old system of being innocent until they prove you're guilty.

  21. Re:Most video games are *worse* than porn on Utah Games/Porn Law Fails · · Score: 1

    But I happen to like violence in video games and on TV, and I don't think it should be banned.

  22. Re:Evolution/IEducation on Utah Votes 'No' to Darwin's Critics · · Score: 1

    But if you question what you know, you're letting the devil influence you! You just have to take it on faith. Now believe what I tell you or you're damned!

  23. Re:No one will be happy... on Houston Police Chief Wants Cameras in Homes · · Score: 3, Funny

    No need, I've already done it for you.

  24. Re:file names on EFF Warns Not to Use Google Desktop · · Score: 1

    If you encrypt your files, then how does Google search them?

  25. Re:Gotta love those MS-apologizers on IE7 Bug Reports Flooding In · · Score: 1

    Ctrl-L goes to the address bar in Firefox. It also works in a few file browsers, making it a standard key combination that i use a lot.
