  1. Re:Legit 2nd post. on A Family IT/Tech Business?? · · Score: 0, Offtopic

    I sit through this and later tonight, I get anal. You hear me? No matter how neat I want the house, you have to clean it.

  2. so... on GBA Emulator Creators Vow To Take On Nintendo · · Score: 1

    If the emulator goes down your taking the GPL with it?

  3. Re:I'm so torn on Real Sues Baseball Over Windows Media · · Score: -1, Troll

    I dont know... I just repainted my fireplace and i can't stop looking at it! It looks soo good and its not even dry yet. But baseball, I dunno, it takes so long for them to make a touchdown and their whole concept or quaters makes no sense to me.

  4. Re:Games Are Not Healthy on Can Counter-Strike Players Be Summed Up By Nation? · · Score: 1

    We are on slashdot and your concerned about GAMES? Kind of like preaching the sins of alcohol in front of a methadone clinic dont you think?

    Or maybe THATS why your a troll.

  5. Shows what you know... on Can Counter-Strike Players Be Summed Up By Nation? · · Score: 1

    You have never played a korean in warcraft have you?

  6. If I had a nickel for every spam message.. on Gates on Spam · · Score: 1

    I do like the idea of emails costing money. But the money should go to the receiver as a "good faith" gesture. Then I could sign up for every newsletter around and finally have some money to buy some of that G.E.N.E.R.I.C.V.1.A.G.R.A. i've been hearing so much about.

  7. Re:Oh please. on Guilty By Association · · Score: 1

    *Throws a half empty box of milk across the room and hits one of the cowards on the head.*

    HA!

    *Runs out cafeteria, ducking mashed potatoes and taco meat.*

    Ahh, must be friday... They always serve tacos on friday...

  8. so... we agree? on Controversial Manhunt Game Rated 'R' in Ontario · · Score: 1

    so... everyone agrees this is a good thing. Even the trolls agree?

  9. Re:assault rifles on Unreal Tournament 2004 Goes Gold · · Score: 1

    I dunno, i've shot guns before, never tried 2 at the same time but dont have access to 2 identical pistols.

    But it seems to me that it takes a second to recover from the recoil from gun and that can be offset by putting less effort into steadying a fired gun then aiming with your still gun. Your first gun will naturally swing back into position while your in the proccess of firing your second gun.

  10. Re:Just the reason. on Tracking Via Anonymous SIM Cards · · Score: 4, Funny

    Or made a deposit at the bank... EVERYONE knows they pull fingerprints from checks you deposit. And if you are foolish enough to leave a strain of your hair that may have fallen into the envelope? Well you might as well just buy some guns, scratch off the serial numbers and leave it at a crime scene with a lock of hair.

    Thats why I always carry a false ID. I use public internet cafes often with my fake fingerprints and I always leave some skin deposits from my "alternate" on the keyboard. The daily exfoliation in the shower was difficult to adjust to, my skin stays very red for at least 2 hours but I have found some nice cream that seems to be working for the redness and also blocks my natural body oders (not the perfume for your armpits but the kind that will keep bloodhounds from tracking you!)

  11. Re:I would change if I got paid the same on Changing Jobs for Job Satisfaction? · · Score: 1

    I'm trying to mod you but I can't seem to find the "-1 Spoiled".

    Most people who are unhappy in IT are unhappy because of the lack of money.

    No.
    Next question.

  13. Keep an eye out for z-wave on Lighting Control on Non-Windows Systems? · · Score: 1

    Z-wave is a new lighting control system that uses rf in a mesh topology. Supposedly be very fast and scalable. Its not out yet but should be in a few months.

  14. Re:Spare parts? on Roomba + Tablet PC = ? · · Score: 2, Informative

    The HP TC1000's can be found for around 1,000. Tigerdirect had them refurbished, ebay has them pretty consistantly.

  15. Re:XBox Emulation on the Mac on Xbox 2 SDK Released On Mac G5? · · Score: 1

    By emulator do you mean a leaked SDK?

    Does anyone know if the earlier SDK worked on PC?

  16. Re:Yeah, a real surprise on Open-Source Software and "The Luxury of Ignorance" · · Score: 2, Informative

    For as long as the problem has been stated its been overlooked for even longer. GNOME has an elephant to eat, but thats no excuse, and even your wording emphasiss the problem, "to make it better for the common man" remember your mantra and realize you should have said "to make it easier for the common man".

  17. I heard its going through a name change on Quake-Based 'Anna' Machinima Publically Released · · Score: 2, Funny

    Anna is actually just the working title. When it hits theaters its going to be titled "The Passion of the Flower".

  18. so.... on MS May Be Forced To Sell Stripped-Down OS In EU · · Score: 2, Insightful

    do they have to change the title of this stripped down version? or can they still call it xp embeded?

  19. Re:Traders or Traitors? on Microsoft Warning Leaked Code Traders · · Score: -1, Offtopic

    How about "if God didn't want us to eat animals, then why did he make us so we can?"

    speaking of animals, do you work at a deli?
    cause you really butchered that one...

    "if God didn't want us to eat animals, then why did he make them so tasty!"

  20. suddenly it makes sense. on FSF: New Apache License not GPL-Compatible · · Score: 1

    instead of LINUX IS NOT GNU
    you will hear APACHE IS NOT GNU
    and it will make sense.

  21. again with the spellchecking... on Novell Quotes AT&T on Derivative Works · · Score: 1

    Now I understand that slashdot is known to be spellcheck impared, but when your trying to googlebomb someone there isn't much of an excuse to screwing that up.

  22. Re:Why only that combination? on Ctrl-Alt-Del Inventor To Retire From IBM · · Score: 1

    Oh of course, You can easily hit the CTRL+SHIFT on accident but not CTRL+ALT because the windows key is in the way. Wow, they were a smart thinkers 20 years ago.

  23. Re:Not much to see here... on PS3 Release Not Until 2006, PSX Firmware Upgrade? · · Score: 2, Funny

    Now they have three or four marketing teams working on new model numbering designs.

  24. Re:Earth to Scientists.... on Reduce CO2 With Phytoplankton Seeding · · Score: 1

    Nice teamwork of scientist... One scientist does the calculation of "how much carbon we have left". The next scientists announces this in some meeting and adds that "all the plants will die without the carbon dioxide" while the original scientist cringes in hte back corner thinking... 'Plants contain carbon... if we are out of carbon, we are out of plants already.'

  25. Something about beta? on World Of Warcraft Alpha Explored, Blizzard Quizzed · · Score: 2, Interesting

    I'm a big blizzard fanboy but this quote is quite unnerving."We do not anticipate that our player housing system will ship with the initial product."
    Golly I renember we were talking about what constitutes beta? Maybe not having all the features?
    At the very least i'm going to wait for at least this feature to be added before I buy in. Dangit blizzard come on you've taken along time with this and we've all said "OK, your pacing yourself so you get everything done right? not like these other guys?" 'sure sure'.
