  1. Re:Especially when emulators run just fine on a pc on PS3 Hacked Using Official Controller · · Score: 1

    Don't most game publishers/developers consider used games just as bad as pirating?

  2. Re:Sam on Why Linux Is Not Attracting Young Developers · · Score: 1

    If you applications are like your comments, I'm glad you don't develop for Linux.

  3. Re:Motivation to not do Linux development on Why Linux Is Not Attracting Young Developers · · Score: 1

    Have you actually ever developed anything before?

    Because you're having a laugh if you think that developing on Windows or Mac means that you won't run into any of the problems you mention.

    Excellent site. Thanks.

  6. Re:They are badly losing people... on Faction Changes Coming To World of Warcraft · · Score: 1

    The game has never been balanced for PVP. It is impossible to balance for PVP and PVE.

  8. Re:The XBOX 360 is Just as Expensive as the PS3 on Game Publishers Pressuring Sony For PS3 Price Cut · · Score: 1

    > 1. The PS3 comes with wireless capability. The XBOX 360 requires a $100 wireless kit.

    Unless you don't need wireless. Also, you can get a cheap wireless router (and DD-WRT) and use that.

    > 2. The XBOX 360's controllers require batteries. An add-on rechargeable battery system costs about $20 per controller.

    You can use rechargeable AA batteries, which I'm sure people with a lot of gadgets would already have.

    Agreed about the Microsoft points though.

    Wow. Great find. I wonder what spin he would put on it, if someone reminded him of that quote now.

  10. Re:Girls and Gays on Notebook Sales Outpace Desktop Sales · · Score: 1

    Exactly! I bought a netbook so I browse the web/check email without getting out of bed. None of this going outside nonsense.

  11. Re:Bullshit! on 1/3 of Amphibians Dying Out · · Score: 1

    You can be less materialistic and still not think there is a God. Also, your arguments could easily be reversed (putting you in the uncomfortable category as well), especially the God one.

    You Fool! It's the law of the Interweb to make a spelling/grammar error while being a grammar nazi.

  13. Re:Bad summary on Carmack Talks Quake Live · · Score: 1

    They are using a browser plugin that is Windows only for now, but with id's track record of Linux support, it's an inevitability.

    It works like instantaction.com, except a whole lot better.

    Not this time. No Linux support.

    "When you dance with the devil, the devil don't change. The devil changes you."

    Ok, so if Linux gains market share most of this are gonna be Windows users who don't care about open source and just want to get things done. So, even though there is a bigger "community", most people in it just don't care.

  22. Re:Obviously there's no benefit... on Saga of Ryzom, Free and Open Source Software? · · Score: 1

    > If you're into PvP skill becomes a factor immediately. Two equally skilled players will often have good, hard-fought, battles.

    Of course you mean two equally skilled players who are playing the same class and have approximately the same level of gear. A skilled Druid with epic gear would find it nearly impossibly to beat a mostly blue geared Warlock who has even a little bit of skill.

    Class > Gear > Skill

    I only use my PDA nowadays for reading ebooks, nothing else.

    Probably more than that. To quote Office Space:

    ~ Well, generally I come in at least twenty minutes late, I sneak in through the backdoor so Lumberg won't see me, then for the next hour I just kinda space out.
    ~ Space out?
    ~ Yeah, I just kinda stare at my desk, but it looks like I'm working... I'd say in a given week I do about, oh, 15 minutes of real, actual work.
