  1. Re:Not the same on HP Linux Laptop Is A Winner · · Score: 1

    Really? My university doesn't give out copies of office. We can buy them cheaply ($100ish) but we do get free copies of Windows XP pro.

  2. Re:Not the same on HP Linux Laptop Is A Winner · · Score: 1

    Did you actually pay for photoshop?

  3. Re:All Versions? on Winamp Skin Exploit in the Wild · · Score: 1

    I assume you meant 2.91. It was the last stable, bloat free release. Plus it supports album list, instead of that god awful media library trash that comes with the new stuffs. Yeah, I rant, but it's ok.

  4. Re:And punish legitimate users? on Controversial StarForce Copy Protection Creators Quizzed · · Score: 1

    You raise a good point. Do you intend on voting in November, or at any other elections? Given statistics, I'd wager you don't plan to, or plan to and don't make it. It's a safer bet than the alternative.

    Such bullshit. If you don't agree with what they're doing simply don't buy their product. They own it, and can do whatever they wish. I'm sick of all you people preaching that if you buy it, it's yours and you should get to do what you want. The same holds true for the creators, it's theirs, and they can do whatever the want. End of story.

  6. Darkest Knight on What's the Worst Movie You've Ever Seen? · · Score: 3, Interesting

    My room mates and I decided to rent it one knight based soley on the Dragons on the box. It turned out to remind me of a student film by some drop out. Every time the hero entered, EVERY time, they played the same fanfare. To top it off, there weren't any dragons, just a portal with a humanoid demon-looking thing trying to step through. Bad as it is, I still recommend everyone try and watch it. Until you see it, your meter for bad, nay all movies isn't properly calibrated. As a side note, they have two sequals of which I intend to watch.

  7. Re:Greater grip? on Modding Game Controllers For Greater Grip · · Score: 1

    Fair and balanced worked for me. Granted I look like Popeye after a spinich binge.

  8. Re:Not to be confused with "No, Your Enemy" on Know Your Enemy, 2nd Edition · · Score: 1

    If I could get a date simply by losing weight and dressing skimpily, I would probably insist that she buy me dinner too. That's the best quote. EVER.

  9. Re:Not to be confused with "No, Your Enemy" on Know Your Enemy, 2nd Edition · · Score: -1, Offtopic

    Your erection was for the computer security version of the book wasn't it. I'm starting to see why we Slashdotters won't ever "know their enemy."

  10. Re:Not to be confused with "No, Your Enemy" on Know Your Enemy, 2nd Edition · · Score: 4, Funny

    If you could write a book "Know your enemy" intended to help single guys better understand women that actually had substance. You'd probably have a best seller on your hands.

  11. Re:84 degrees is okay for some things. on Smart Glass Blocks Infrared - But Only When It's Hot · · Score: 1

    Yeah, but how am I supposed to kill my baby then?

  12. Re:3D hurts my eyes on 3D Monitor · · Score: 2, Interesting

    If you're having a problem view 3D images, you could be stereoblind. It's very rare to have it, and most people don't realize they do because stereoblindness doesn't affect things like image perception, nor is it useful at 100+ feet. It's typically only caused by infantile strabismus. If you're that interested, tell your optomotrist to check you for it next time you go in. They quit checking it routinely because there isn't anything they can do about it. Sorry, I was a Psychology major and was really interested in perception.

  13. Re:Now all we need... on 3D Monitor · · Score: 1

    Why on Earth would you tell people to watch that movie?

  14. Becase on Should SETI Be Looking For Lasers Instead? · · Score: 1

    ...Advanced alien races recklessly shoot lasers into space randomly.

  15. Re:Blogs on Ziff Davis To Website: License To Link, Updated · · Score: 1

    Yeah, I frequently send out a lot of letters and such to my state repersentative. Being a student at a state university gives you plenty of opportunities to be an activist for pretty much whatever you want. Right or left wing.

  16. Re:Blogs on Ziff Davis To Website: License To Link, Updated · · Score: 1

    My message was really saying the same thing as your first one. Except mine was a parody to show the ineffectiveness of it. Hence the funny mod.

  17. Re:Blogs on Ziff Davis To Website: License To Link, Updated · · Score: 2, Funny

    I think the key to a successful writing campaign is to be: 1) Polite 2) Respectful 3) Objective 4) To the point 5) Request a reply 6) Use your real name and city/state and send from the same email address they can reply to. What complete bullshit. I don't know what kind of idiot mentors you've had in your life, but I was always told the best way to get something done is to make damn sure everyone offending you knows it. Beyond that I really don't know that I have a point, so no further correspondence is nessecary. Yours Truly, Jon Johnson of Hicksville.

    My personal favorite thing about The Family Guy was always "How old did you say? 16? 18? ALRIGHT!"

    That was the most brilliant display of Karma Whoring ever, holy wow. I laughed my ass off.

    I haven't been keeping up on how that's going and such, there hasn't been a slashback dealing with it in awhile. What's the current status of software patents?

  24. Re:Ready to help. on RIAA Sends Letter to Senate Supporting INDUCE Act · · Score: 1

    Judging from your sig, you're from Europe, what about the EU's software patents? I feel like moving to an unindustrialized nation and establishing myself as a super-power.
