You can read the article, or you can get (+5, insightful) for a relatively useless comment that anyone could've made. I stand by my choice. The more work and thought that go into a comment, the less likely it is to be modded up.

1. I'm too awesome. It's really troublesome being this awesome. 2. I work too well, and get way too much done, it's a pain in the ass for everyone. 3. I've got a bad habit of buying everyone in the office doughnuts, and Tim Hortons is bad for people's health! 4. I'm too loveable. Don't fall for me, I'll only break your heart. 5. I cut myself just to see if I still feel. The pain is like a jolting, bleeding reality check, the only way I know I'm still alive.
At least Barack Obama knows what "Bush Doctrine" is.
For Sarah Palin NOT to know what it is, she must've skipped her own party's debates! Is the sort of person who would skip the presidental primaries for her OWN PARTY really the sort of person we want running the country?
Hey, don't blame me. I voted for [Guy who has no chance of winning]. If only [Guy who has no chance of winning] got in, things would change, but America is [prejorative], and will never have a leader like [Guy who has no chance of winning], and arguably doesn't deserve one.
If you honestly think another Republican president is what we need, you don't know shit about Republican presidents. Ford, Reagan, Bush 1, Bush 2, for longer than most slashdotters have been alive, Republican presidents have meant massive budget defecits and massive debt increases. Now, under a Republican president, we're looking at another 700 billion dollars ON TOP OF budgets which make the current president the biggest spender in American history -- a Republican!
They say reality has a well-known liberal bias. I disagree with this. Reality has a well-known anti-Republican bias. Conservatives have been crying for decades that these spendaholics are going around redefining conservative as "reckless and irresponsible to the point of bankrupting the nation".
And if you think it'll be any different because it's John McCain, you're an idiot. McCain is running on a platform that's substantially similar to the platform that the spendaholic Bush 2 ran on in 2000. He's ducked his tail between his legs on many positions in order to get the nomination, and once he's behind the desk, he's going to continue to be a weak leader.
I must've missed something. Nvidia and ATI GPUs are excellent counterparts, the two most powerful cards available, and if prices are high, it's because nobody else can create a card for less.
Honestly though, I can buy an amazing video card for less than 100 bucks. I can't buy an equivilent video card from Matrox, S3, Via, or Intel at all, let alone for 100 bucks. How are they fixing prices?

I always wonder why that happens. You'd think after the first few times consoles explode, they'd use optoisolators to isolate the control signals, and isolated intrinsically safe power supplies to power them.
Not neccessarily. If it's an oem copy of Windows, they'll force you to deal with your vendor, as the EULA tells you. At that point, your vendor may or may not give you a refund, and will probably just bounce you back to MS until you threaten legal action.
You're not familiar with large scale industrial operations. Even a large boiler must be disabled for a week or so before reaching room temperature. You're not going to be able to bring that much material to such a low temperature quickly.
Makes no sense, and that pisses me off. I much prefer my units being eighths of a unit made up of one twelfth of a unit made up of a third of a unit made up of 1/1760th of the largest practical unit.
I find it offensive that parents who vote for an administration that spends 3 billion dollars a day of our children's money think they can complain about responsibility.
Pay your bills, then we can talk about responsiblity, people.
Sitting listening to some idiot talk about something you already know is a valuable life skill that will stand you in good stead throughout your working life.
Different words, different meanings. It's like the different version of 'its' or 'their'. The reason it ticks people off so much isn't that the grammar is simply wrong(trust me, if it was just that, half of Slashdot would fail), it's that sentences take on new meanings if they're read properly with the wrong words.
'your an idiot', for example, seems like a sentence fragment referring to some 'an idiot' that you're accusing someone of owning. Similarly, if you were talking about the Republican party, and said 'their idiots', you might think they're talking about their candidates for the presidency and vice-presidency, where the speaker intended to say "they're idiots", stating that they're all idiots. Further, it would be quite embarrassing to say "there idiots", and appear to be either commanding the reader to look at the idiots, or commanding the idiots to look at something else.
Seriously? You've got a BA in English Lit. and you can't figure out the difference?
It's really simple.
To effect change, you must affect something. the effects of that change will affect you, effectively. Affectively is an archaic word that refers to affection. Effectively Effective is a redundancy. You can Effectively affect change by doing what needs to be done.

Silly fool, "They" only come out at night, to stalk from household to household, draining the world's lifeblood, in this new horror picture for 1952!
Ha, idiot. I just fortified my phalanx. You don't stand a chance.

This looks like something the DEMOCRATS thought up! I bet you heard about this from DailyKOS!

It's not so bad! I know she like cookies and hates terrorism and Barack Obama!
I know this because that's her response to every question.
Q:"Please tell us about what you did as governor of Alaska."
A:"I hate terrorism, and Barack Obama, who isn't experienced enough to be president!"

I can sort of see why they'd do it, though.

Who is the publisher for Fallout 3, anyway?
For obvious reasons, I'll have to decline purchasing yet another classic if it's EA.
One thing to keep in mind, the easiest way to buy Stardock's game is through their own distribution platform.
I always wonder why that happens. You'd think after the first few times consoles explode, they'd use optoisolators to isolate the control signals, and isolated intrinsically safe power supplies to power them.

It's also been pointed out MANY times that it's not DRM if they're not managing your digital rights.
It's copy protection, but you're completely open to make as many copies as you want using Impulse.
