  1. Mental Anguish? on Google Sued Over Privacy Invasion On Street View · · Score: 2, Interesting
    What must your mental state be if a picture of your house appearing on the internet can cause you "mental anguish"? They either must have a very easy life to make this small matter appear relatively large, or they must be teetering on the brink of the abyss for something this small to be a threat.


    Either way, they must have a very strange life




    oh, yeah... I guess they could be looking to make a quick buck.

  2. Slogan on Telco Immunity Goes To Full Debate · · Score: 4, Funny

    AT&T -- Your world. Delivered. To the NSA.

  3. Re:New Government Program for Protection of Childr on Games Industry Accused of 'Buying Political Clout' · · Score: 1

    Oh, how I wish I had mod points.....

  4. It can't be! on Duke Nukem Forever Teaser Released · · Score: 1

    I would consider my reality to be shattered if this game ever came out. Can anyone even imagine what a "Top 10 Vaporware" list would be like without it?
    I'd feel the same way about Spore, except that I actually want to play that game.

  5. Days gone by on Burying a Mainframe In Style · · Score: 2, Interesting

    This is one of the few times I miss being in college. I can't imagine the multi-national I now work for having enough of a sense of humor to retire a system like this.

  6. Works for me on Murdoch's New Internet Strategy for the WSJ · · Score: 2, Funny

    I would much prefer an ad-based strategy rather than subscription. Adblock works great!

  7. Can't help it on Elebits and Warioware - Bad Wii and Good Wii · · Score: 1

    If you're looking for a quite weekend rental, Elebits isn't a bad call.

    Sometimes spellcheck isn't enough!

  8. Re:Sturgeon's Revelation on Sony Shrugs Off Bad Press - Still A Strong Brand · · Score: 1

    What's more offensive - being smarter than most other people or telling people that you are? Sometimes a fact is just a fact.

  9. Re:Why does everyone want a winner? on Clearing Up Holiday Sales Rumours · · Score: 1

    I want Nintendo to win because I own stock.

  10. Re:Actually, they don't self-censor, but the oppos on Jack Thompson Gearing Up For GTA IV Fight · · Score: 1

    Yeah... a G rating is the "kiss of death."
    You should give Pixar a call and warn them about how their G rated movies (Toy Story, Toy Story II, Bug's Life, Monsters Inc., Cars) are doomed to failure!
    (note: think, then post)

  11. Re:Another one! on Legend of Zelda - Twilight Princess Review · · Score: 0, Flamebait

    You really need to get laid. Maybe you'd relax more then.
    Good luck with that.

  12. I agree on Legend of Zelda - Twilight Princess Review · · Score: 1

    I have to say that I agree with your opinion of this game. When I first purchased my Wii, this was the one additional game that I purchased and I've been very pleased. Fortunately, my wife isn't interested in adventure games -- or else we'd be fighting over game time.

  13. Wii-Golf on Two Weeks with the Wii · · Score: 1

    Am I the only person in the world who likes this game and didn't find the controls impossible?
    I'm now actually looking forward to EA Tiger Woods for the Wii (making an assumption here). I'd enjoy swinging my wiimote down Pebble Beach.

  14. Re:This has been going on for years on Portions of SCO's Expert Reports Stricken · · Score: 1

    >>It's impossible to defend oneself if one doesn't even know precisely what the accusations are.
    >Except at Guantanamo Bay

    No, it is exactly the same there.

  15. Funny thing... on PS3 Missed Ship Targets, Loses Exclusives · · Score: 2, Interesting

    The interesting thing is that if all the numbers are true (or even close), that means that over 10% of all PS3s purchased were resold on eBay -- maybe higher. Don't know why, but that's funny to me.

  16. Sorry on Creationism Museum To Open Next Summer · · Score: 1, Flamebait

    I'd like to appologize on behalf of the state of Kentucky.
    Not all of us are ignorant, inbred rednecks.

  17. Re:/. ticker for PS3 on Fewer PS3 Units Tomorrow Than Hoped For? · · Score: 1

    Gee... I dunno. Maybe there are stories about the PS3 in the "games" section of /. because this is the GAMES section of /.
    I realize that is hard to comprehend.... news about games in the games section of an on-line discussion forum. Think about it for a bit and get back to us, will you?

  18. don't see a problem on Microsoft One Step From World's Greenest Company · · Score: 2, Insightful

    I'm sorry, but I don't see a problem here. This seems no worse than turning on the Windows firewall by default. Those of us who spend a lot of time tweeking and modifying our machines would obviously configure our systems to behave the way we want them to. People who don't care won't care anyway.

    I have no issues at all with my sister's computer going into a power-safe mode by default. My grandmother's computer could certainly scale back when she's not playing solitare... could probably scale back while she's playing solitare.

    Please don't get your panties in a wad just because we're talking about Microsoft here.

  19. Wow on Worst Security Clean-Up You've Performed? · · Score: 1

    I have to stop dissing my sister now. I only found 2100 malicious objects on her machine.

  20. $750? on Judge OKs Challenge To RIAA's $750-Per-Song Claim · · Score: 4, Funny

    I don't know about the rest of you, but I'm having a hard time thinking of a song that was worth $750. There are some really good songs out there, but I can't imagine paying $750 to listen to any of them.
    Well... I did get laid to "Stairway to Heaven" in high school, but I'm not sure it was worth $750 -- sex included.

  21. Re:Uh oh on Gaming Politics To Watch Today · · Score: 1

    insert into PARENT
    (CLUE) values (1);
    Next time, learn a little about US campaign laws before stating something silly. What you're suggesting is that every news organization in the world is violating the law because they report on candidates.

  22. Re:My local video game store... on Wii and PS3 Camp-Out Guide · · Score: 1

    I am right there with you!
    Nov. 19th is my wife's birthday! Fortunately, she likes to sleep in very late so I should be able to pick up my pre-order and get home before she gets out of bed. Unfortunately, I'll probably have to wait until the next day to take it out of the box.

  23. Re:I for one will not be ordering one.. on Nintendo Promises 4 Million Shipped Wiis By Year-End · · Score: 1

    >> To have a fun game of Red Steel i'm going to need to invest in 160.00 worth of controllers. That just isn't right! What kind of math are you using??? You'll have to spend $50 for the game. The console comes with a controller and nun-chuk, which happens to be what you need to play Red Steel. If you want a friend to play on the same console, it is $60 for a second controller and chuk. Where the hell do you get 160??

  24. Re:Bundles on Nintendo Promises 4 Million Shipped Wiis By Year-End · · Score: 1

    Actually, you'll probably want a second controller and nun-chuk if you want to play the Sports game with anyone else. If you're the only one who will ever be playing the system, then you're correct.

  25. Re:The only lauch title on Wii Virtual Console, Launch Titles Finalized · · Score: 1

    umm... you're assuming that DNF will launch at all. Clearly, this is not the console's fault. ;)
