Yes, the news that was in the Post, then mysteriously gone was sourced by Jack himself. A real lawyer must have tipped them off that printing outright lies (there's no evidence Cho ever played a video game in his life..) might open them up to legal action, say from Valve (or as Jack calls them, Microsoft).
And in a letter sent to Bill Gates Wednesday, he wrote: "Mr. Gates, your company is potentially legally liable (for) the harm done at Virginia Tech. Your game, a killing simulator, according to the news that used to be in the Post, trained him to enjoy killing and how to kill."
They stockpiled an assload before the launch at christmas, and those have trickled out onto the market. The lowering numbers mean the supply sitting in the warehouses in japan is running out.
I'm sure if anything production has increased, just not enough to meet the demand.
Who would seriously by Child Porn on their own credit card?
You greatly underestimate peoples stupidity. A paedophile isn't right in the head to begin with, and when they band up in a group like namble they feed of each others idiocy, and convince themselves what they feel and do is right, and liken themselves to persecuted homosexuals.
My problem has always been the packages are missing something I need. Like SAMBA wont have CUPS support or LDAP, or whatever. There's always some --enable-bullshit flag that's left out.
The last time I played with Debian (admittedly, years ago), it was pretty rough this way.
* Your site has used more than 20% of the cpu.
* Your account has too many processes running at the same time.
* Your site was consuming too many resources. This happens on occassion to very busy sites that have inefficient scripts running.
Not too many 404s directly diss the sites coder like that..
I am going to try this ungla bunga linux out, and I will advise...
My beef with "turnkey" distros is they always seem to be missing something I need.
For example, I have 4 drives encrypted (dm-crypt).. Does unga bunga have all the device mapper and crypt support built into its kernel?
Also, I auth against an LDAP machine, so I need nss-ldap and pam-ldap and all of that jibber jabber. Samba needs to be able to join my samba-controlled domain, too.
Slashdot Mirror
I can't help but hear George Costanza ranting about the "delicate genious".
What a bunch of pompous pro-mac bullshit. This type of dickitry is precisely why I will never buy a mac, ever.
I guess the guy with the iPod is "hipper" and more "creative" than the guy listening to the exact same playlist on a zune.
blah blah blah
Yes, it is in fact just another dopey Mac commercial.
Sure we'll all run on down to the Mac store this afternoon.
This is the first step to pirati^H^H^H legitimately downloading PS3 games because copyright law is BROKEN and like FUCK YOU GEORGE BUSH TAKE THIS!
All we need now is for someone to actually release some PS3 games and we're good to go!
I should pick up a PS3 so I can play it.
LOL all those M$ fanboys dont even know about this HOT ESCLUSIVE TITAL!
Apple was a pioneer of these sort of bullshit "look and feel" suits.
It's nice to see corporations hoist by their own petard.
HOLY CRAP
/., I almost went OUTSIDE before I heard of this.
I'm glad I checked
How about overpriced as in the market is for the most part ignoring it, and clamoring to get their hands on a Wii.
The guy heads a major tech company, I don't think the "lingo" is all that foreign to him.
These are the same guys who put root kits on audio CDs. I don't like him no matter how many times he refers to the "Web 2.0 blogosphere"
And the PSP and PS3 are, frankly, both dogs.

Because the sales pitch is basically, "it plays BluRay discs".
I think you need to get on-target with the message, if indeed, this thing is a video game console.
They can only hit retail as fast as they can be shipped from Japan, and get through Customs.
Umm no limited shelf space, and you can usually stockpile a product faster than you can ship it out.
They dont teleport themselves from Japan to the shelf at Toys R' Us, fella.

He's talking about f'cking counter-strike.
What a dingus malingus.
Cuz I got it by drinking human blood.
Now is that the definition of irony or what?
Huh? Those are sales numbers.
They stockpiled an assload before the launch at christmas, and those have trickled out onto the market. The lowering numbers mean the supply sitting in the warehouses in japan is running out.

Mac: Hi, I'm a mac!
PC: And I'm a PC.
Mac: Steve Jobs just plugged up all my holes
PC: GOODNIGHT! (tapdances off stage)
Movies on video marketplace on XBox Live look as good as their HD-DVD/BluRay cousins.
Sucks you dont have broadband.
Therefore, the defense rests.
Hey, it's good enough for slashdotters.
WTG.. Next stop, gametap.
Wait for demand for Blu-Ray drives?
Is there any demand, whatsoever?
Hell - demand for HDTVs isn't even all that high.
Regardless, I can watch HD movies via Comcast on demand, download them via XBox 360, or to a PC.
I have no problem at all getting HD content onto my screen.
Why should (most)people care about plastic discs anymore?

Criminals frankly just aren't all that smart.
I agree. He sought out child porn, by his own admission. That is guilt, no matter what his reasons for doing so were.
"Officer I was just buying crack for a school project".
This kind of an excuse would *never* fly for anyone but a celebrity.
I guess it goes to show that pop icons are as above the law in the UK as they are in California.
