  1. Think of the children! on Mario's Raccoon Suit Enrages PETA · · Score: 1

    So children will kill racoons to wear their fur to be like Mario? This is just PETA again mad at another company because they don't think like them.

  2. Japanese Porn? on Adobe Demos Photo Unblurring At MAX 2011 · · Score: 1

    I think they'll use this technology for sure to unblur the movies.

  3. Re:Slashdotted already? on Was the iPod Accessory Port Inspired By a 40-Year-Old Camera? · · Score: 1

    We are always here.

  4. They should rename & rebrand the service... on Rhapsody To Acquire Napster · · Score: 1

    Why still use the name Napster? It may have worked around 2003 by confusing people thinking it was the same old service but now legal, but this isn't 2003 anymore.

  5. Can't wait... on .XXX Domain Registrations Begins · · Score: 1

    for slashdot.xxx

  6. Activision... on Coming Soon, Shorter Video Games · · Score: 1

    ...started the practice of short games years ago, a 8-10 hour single player game, everything else multiplayer.

  7. Name of console stolen.... on Nintendo Announces New Console: Wii U · · Score: 1

    From 2002's Kung Pow, hear Ling: http://youtu.be/92mFlANJ3Ew

  8. Story innacurate according to the group on Daily Sony Hacking Occurs On Schedule · · Score: 5, Informative

  9. So... on Sony Running Unpatched Servers With No Firewall · · Score: 5, Insightful

    Everytime a new PS3 firmware comes out, with "security updates" you are almost forced to install it or you lose PSN, plus other features, but they don't care about updating and securing their servers?

  10. Update 4/26/11 on PSN Outage Continues, Console Hack Claimed To Be Responsible · · Score: 1
  11. Settlement terms confidential on Fellow Hackers Blast Geohot For Sony Settlement · · Score: 0

    IMO before jumping to conclusions, we should wait to see what happens in the next firmware updates or announcements, since the settlement terms are confidential, Geohot might have won something and Sony doesn't want it public.

  12. Re:Finally! on Sony Announces PS3 Slim, Price Cut, Improvements To Home · · Score: 1

    Yes, it is a little late, but look at Sony's past consoles, sure they were on the lead back then, but the thing is, years after their competitor's consoles were dead, Sony's consoles still were selling strong.

  13. Finally! on Sony Announces PS3 Slim, Price Cut, Improvements To Home · · Score: 1

    I've always told my friends once the PS3 price would be on par with the 360, it would sell more, why would that be? Because the PS3 is a better console hardware-wise and can play Blu-Ray discs. On games, think about it, most third party games are made for both consoles, the differences are mostly Halo and GoW for the 360 and Uncharted, Gran Turismo, Infamous and others for the PS3. So it is a matter of taste. We'll seethis holiday season wich console sells more.

  14. What? no challenge? on Can Video Game Accessibility Go Too Far? · · Score: 1, Insightful

    In my opinion this eliminates any kind of challenge, if you are stuck, you let the game play itself and that's it, no worries. I remember when I was a kid playing Super Mario Bros on NES, I liked it because it was a challenge, it was difficult and when I was stuck it kept me trying to play more and more to get out of that part instead of letting the game play itself and be bored.

  15. Finally DLC coming to the PS3! on Fallout 3 DLC Coming To the PS3, New Content Announced · · Score: 1

    I have been playing Fallout for more than 60 hours(PS3), and I haven't finished the game yet because of all the sidequests, back when they announced the DLC, when they said that they weren't coming to the PS3, I kind of lost my interest in the game, but now that they are going to release them for the PS3, I'll continue playing the game.

  16. Why not... on Square Enix Shuts Down Fan-Made Chrono Trigger Sequel · · Score: 1

    buy them? I mean, Square-Enix buying their idea/game and releasing it as what it is, a game made from fans, sell it at a low price, but we all now this won't happen.

  17. Re:I hope this helps this problem on FTC Kills Scareware Scam That Duped Over 1M Users · · Score: 1

    At the computer store where I work, in Ponce, Puerto Rico, we see computers infected with these rogue applications, I have succefsully easily removed these infections using Malwarebytes' Anti-Malware. Try it.

  18. Re:no on PC Grand Theft Auto IV Features SecuROM DRM · · Score: 1

    not just act like the pirates who just want free stuff.

    Any pirates out there that just don't want free stuff?

  19. typo in summary on Cell Chip Coming To the PC Via a PCI Express Card · · Score: 1

    It should be Toshiba Qosmio, not Qosimo...

  20. Re:Old news? on Windows XP Still Outselling Windows Vista · · Score: 1

    In fact, we've switched from selling almost all Dell systems to almost all HP systems because of it

    What? I work at a local computer store in Ponce, Puerto Rico, we sell Dell systems in volume to the government, mostly for schools, I would say about 90% of our customers still want XP, the other 10% just don't care about the OS. Dell still provides the option to buy a Vista Business license with Windows XP Pro pre-loaded (they use a VLK), the catch, as we saw a few days back on the news, is that they charge $50 more, the customers don't care, because the government is paying, so, most of them order it with XP. Does HP charge the extra $50 for this?

  21. DIY... on Denon's $499 Ethernet Cable · · Score: 1

    Do it yourself (don't pirate them?), they even show you how to build this $499 cable...

  22. What's next? on Vatican Says Alien Life Plausible · · Score: 1, Interesting

    The Vatican are trying to update their status in society because if they don't, they lose followers, I wonder if sometime in the future they will "approve" human cloning too by saying something like "maybe God wanted us humans to create clones", I don't know, they'll try anything to manipulate society, but let's see what happens...

  23. I can't believe... on Ballmer Calls Vista 'A Work In Progress' · · Score: 2, Insightful

    how he simply calls it a "work-in-progress", even when microsoft wants windows users to adopt Vista. So let's get this, if you buy Vista, you are testing a work-in-progress OS until microsoft gets enough feedback to "perfect" Windows 7 because they will abandon Vista, and then you will have to buy the new "finished" version. Hell, if Windows 7 doesn't work out, it will simply be called another WIP.
