    So in other words, just become an anti-social asshole!

    True. I stand well not corrected actually, as I do know that the continuing success of Toyota and Honda and Ford are pretty much established by their not being in Bankruptcy, yet.

    Actually, if you are a rich college student and have to/are forced to use only the college library for some reason then I suppose your attitude is reasonable. Even large companies have libraries of text and reference books for which more than one copy is not required and it is probably not available online.

    If indeed you knew it all I could accept you as an authority but since I don't know everything the fact that you might is irrelevant.

    However, it was entertaining and related important information that I would not have inferred myself not being a lawyer. Keep it up and disregard the self important idiot that posted the parent to this.

    Thanks for the summary and the commentary both.

    I believe all the "good" ones are in Washington working for Obama. For some definition of "Good" I suppose.

  9. Sort of... on Maingear Touts New Rig As "Planet's Greenest Gaming PC" · · Score: 3, Funny

    Strikes me as World's Greenest Gaming PC, is equivalent to Worlds Gentlest Rape.

    I don't know where you get your information but it's not true.

    I realize that replying to a sig is a faux pas but I have to. If your 10.2 Mac doesn't run anything then you are an incompetent boob and deserve to be stuck with windows.

    Some people have no sense of the absurd...

    I call bullshit on this, as Honda and Toyota are also paying those pensions and more without having a Union force them to.

    You apparently didn't bother to read the post to which I was replying...

    No there is rocket science in that. The buy back program can get so complicated that it would take a couple of good research accountants to figure out the ramifications.

    And then we can get book writers to write books with more re-read value, and get house builders...

    Book re-sales didn't kill book publishers either.

    Yeah, I guess Gutenberg really screwed those monks over too.

    If that's what publishers are for they are failing seriously!

  22. Re:anonymous coward wants slice of first post mark on Publishers Want a Slice of Used Game Market · · Score: 3, Insightful

    Yeah and then we can get those pesky book publishers to get the authors to write books with replay value so that they don't suck and nobody wants to trade them in. And we can get the people who build houses to build houses that have great replay value so they don't suck and people don't want different ones of those things either. And maybe we can get slashdot users to write posts that don't suck...

    What illegal NSA wiretapping thing and where did you hear of such a thing? Where were you about an hour ago, we found this interesting file on your computer and we'd like to talk to you.

    So you set up a dummy feed to get the app approved then change that to the real feed when you show up in the store. Not rocket science either.

  25. Hey Have we not learned how to learn? on Apple Bans RSS Reader Due To Bad Word In Feed Link · · Score: 1

    Ya know it's not the first time they (Apple) have done this. SO it would seem that if you are gonna submit a feed reader to Apple, you would point it at a feed that has not profanity in it. It's a configurable parameter after all.

    This is not news it's stupidity admitted in public. I'd be embarrassed to admit publicly I did something this stupid.
