I have an idea for a christian video game. It's called Crusade. You go to the Middle East, and you get to kill moozlim Ay-rabs, burn their villages, rape their women, and set up crusader states. That's phase one of the game.
Phase 2 happens a few centuries later. You go into villages hunting for witches, and you get to burn all the women at the stake. Don't leave any alive, as they could easily be witches. You also get to go into the Jewish ghettos with false stories like the blood libel, destroy synagogues, kill Rabbis, and burninate! All so a nobleman who has squandered his fortune doesn't have to pay back a money lender. You have to be sure to burn his records, or the debt reverts to the king.
There are bonus stages along the way where you get to burn books!
In stage 3, You are in America, you go door to door telling people how they are going to burn in hell if they don't join your church. You even get to deny medical care to children, because God will heal them.
In the final stage, You get to help put George W. Bush in the White House, so he can start the Battle of Armageddon. If you do everything right, you are included in the rapture, and you get to fly up into the sky and meet Jesus!
Nobody wants to pay $20 for one good song, and 10 or 11 fillers. That is a big reason a growing number of us Don't buy CDs. Besides, popular music is not art, it is just a business. Classical music was art. These "artists" need to understand that the fans are their customers. If we only want one or two songs, sell us one or two songs, or we may not by any of your music at all. There is an old saying that the customer is always right. The popular music racket is one of many that seem to have forgotten this.
These huge water cooling rigs are going to make modern computers as big as ENIAC again. So much for compactness and portability. I've got an idea, lets make larger die CPUs, so they won't have these overheating problems.
In the United States, courts usually rule that parody is a form of free speech. That hasn't stopped big companies from bringing slapp suits, and fighting them is very expensive. The little guy will usually back down. Larry Flint could afford to fight Jerry Falwell because he is rich, and he had to go all the way to the Supreme Court to win. A clearer law could be made to prevent these slapp suits by clearly stating that parody is free speech, not copyright or trademark infringement, but the same corporations that bring slapp suits also bribe -er, ah- donate to our lawmakers.
A CD can cost $20, and has one, maybe two good songs. In markets that still sell cassette and vinyl, which cost more to manufacture than CD, they sell for less. WTF? Some of the CDs won't play in a computer, which is the preferred CD player of millions, and they wonder why they are going broke. Must be piracy? Yeah, right! Don't buy CDs.
Buh bye, Musicland, Sam Goody and Tower Records. Join the 8-track in the dustbin of history.
A lawyer, eh! How about those G-d D--n theives getting free music from the radio? They aren't paying for it. We need to ban music from being played on the radio. Nothin' for freeloaders, right?
I think Shakespeare had the right idea about lawyers!
Has the MTBF of major brand hard drives gone down in recent years like their warranties? They once had five year warranties, then three, then all at once, major manufacturers scaled their warranties back to one year. Are they cramming way too much data onto the platters, making the technology unreliable, or are they just cutting their costs at the expense of customers? Their shortening of warranties to one year seemingly all at once smells like collusion to me, which violates anti-trust laws. The FTC should investigate this.
You can still name your son Adolph in Kentucky. Everyone will think of Coach Rupp, not Hitler. He was a racist too, though. Only whites could play for him.
I don't know if she will still be spewing the RIAA party lne at CNBC, but either way, Don't buy CDs, unless you buy them directly from an independent artist. The recording industry doesn't deserve our business.
The Dreamcast may not have been a big hit with gamers, but hackers sure seem to love it. Sega might be able to make some money by bringing it back, and selling it on haxOr tOOlz websites.
That article revealed the names of people IBM could easily deal with the mafia way...
"SCO is basically owned and run by The Canopy Group, a Utah firm with investments in dozens of companies. Canopy's chief executive, Ralph J. Yarro III, is chairman of SCO's board of directors and engineered the suit against Microsoft in 1996. Darcy Mott, Canopy's chief financial officer, is another SCO director, along with Thomas Raimondi, chief executive of a Canopy company called MTI Technology (nasdaq: MTIC - news - people ). In this cozy company, SCO even leases its office space from Canopy--a fact disclosed in Securities and Exchange Commission filings, along with the fact that SCO's chief financial officer, Robert Bench, has a side job as a partner in a Utah consulting firm that last year billed SCO for $71,200."
Buy 'em a pair of concrete shoes, and make 'em sleep with the fishes. I don't think these guys have any idea who they are messing with. Some of the guys at IBM are not boy scouts. Capiche?
It turns out that North Korea is not our enemy, and South Korea is the real threat, trying to destroy the high-tech sector of our economy. I say let Pyongyang nuke them./smart-ass
I object to your assertion that Carmageddon is for sociopaths. I know lots of people who play that game, and not all of them are sociopaths. While some of them enjoy cruelty to animals, like stoning ducks to deat, and cutting the tails off of puppies just to hear them yelp, not all of them do. While some of them enjoy going to McDonalds, and describing how cattle are slaughtered in gory detail to little children eating burgers, and point out that this is how McDonalds got the burger, not all of them do this. While some of the guys I know who played that game are in prison, not all of them are, and you haven't proven that Eric Harris and Dylan Klebold played this game. Carmageddon says right on the box that it is for the chemically imbalanced, but that doesn't mean they are all sociopaths! Just most of them. Besides, runnin over muthafukkas with my ride is fun!
Wow! An on topic use of goatse that hasn't been modded down yet! Orrin Hatch has sure made some enemies with his crazy talk. I wonder if his computer is going to get hacked. Here is a link I would like him to follow. It says just what I think of him, and I suspect millions would agree.
Don't cross over to the dork side. Do not play this game. Once you start down the dork path, forever will it dominate your destiny. Consume you it will! You will live in your mother's basement. You will never meet a real girl. Handling your own light saber while looking at prOn will be your only taste of love. Beware the dork side!
How do you think I Dissapear got leaked while they were still in the studio? The label did it to create a buzz around the song for the Mission Impossible soundtrack, and they sold a lot more copies of that soundtrack. Lars is a fargin bastidge!
F1 ain't got no popularity here in the US of A 'Cuz it's too complimicated, and half the time they's goin' slow. Our ideal of car racin' is NASCAR. Mash down on the loud pedal an' turn left. Yeehah!

No she doesn't. Actually we learn that Darth Vader is Harry Potter's father.

Why wardrive? 1.To get free internet access. 2. To send out spam using someone else's account and SMTP server. 3. Just to see if you can.
When you do it to yourself it's called mastrubation, not censorship!

You can repeat yourself, but don't repeat what anyone else says. It might be copyright infringement. The First Amendment doesn't protect that.

By the way, Dubya is an asshat. You are not supposed to be able to fall off a Segway. Reminds me of Ford falling down stairs.
The DMCA passed the Senate Unanimously. Both wings of the Corporate Party can be blamed.
Just what is Orrin Hatch smoking?
Hatch is advocating committing a crime. Can he be censured for that? I hope so.
