  1. This is, by far, on Games Should Be Like Female Orgasms · · Score: 2, Insightful

    The lewdest and most disgusting submission I've ever read.

    Do go on

  2. Simple on Analyst Says Two 360 Versions At Launch · · Score: 2, Insightful

    Most customers will also purchase one game - bringing the total up to 360.

  3. Brain fart on Build Your Business With Open Source · · Score: 1

    this GUIDE, not book. Oy.

  4. Good point on Build Your Business With Open Source · · Score: 1

    Still, I would think that this book might appear "imcomplete" to PHBs and the likes.

  5. DK Info on Man Dies After 50-hour Gaming Marathon · · Score: 1

    It's dependant on your computer clock's time, which in most cases is "real-world time" . The game also featured bonus levels unlocked on days when the moon is full.

  6. Huh? on Build Your Business With Open Source · · Score: 1

    but where it skips the obvious categories like databases and Web servers

    Do any businesses that would NEED software to do business NOT use at least one of these?

  7. Important precision on 60 Years Since Hiroshima · · Score: 1

    FRESH water will run out. There is enough saltwater to last a billion years.

  8. Text EULAs are a bad idea, IMO on Textbooks With EULAs · · Score: 1

    I don't want some soulless companies to dictate the way I can use BOOKS.

    What's next, EULAs on food packages? "You may not microwave this box for more than 5 minutes on High"

  9. The real kicker on MS Gets $7 Million From Spammer · · Score: 1

    Imagine how much is "lost" (a loose term ,really) to Slashdot !!!!!

  10. Hypocrisy on Drawing Minorities Into Gaming · · Score: 4, Insightful

    No one complained that the hero of the first *4* GTAs were white american males, but suddently a black man appears and OH MY GOD RACIAL STEROTYPING RACISM HAVE YOU NO SHAME?

  11. RAWR FIGHT THE MACHINE on MS Gets $7 Million From Spammer · · Score: 1, Insightful

    Get real and post under an actual name, twit.
    As for your "argument", it's shit. Nowhere did I say the spammer caused 4 million in damages. YOU extrapolated this from my hypothesis which is a framework under which you can (attempt to)EVALUATE or ESTIMATE the ACTUAL damages caused.

    Next time READ before you flame.

  12. Haven't you heard? on MS Gets $7 Million From Spammer · · Score: 1

    Microsoft is the most prominant defender of people's online rights towhahaHAHAHAHAHAAHAH Sorry, couldn't keep a straight face.

  13. Because THEY sued on MS Gets $7 Million From Spammer · · Score: 1

    and won. Plus, they're going to invest it in combatting spam.

    What are you complaining about, again?

  14. Quick math on MS Gets $7 Million From Spammer · · Score: 2, Insightful

    Let's assume he "only" sent spam to 200,000 people. Thse people took 5 seconds of worktime to delete it. Ballpark an estimate 15$ hourly wage and you've got 4,000$ of lost productivity here. Now realize that,according to the article, it's likely to be closer to 2,000,000,000 than to 200,000. Possibly even more.

  15. Well this discussion needs to be livened up. on New Nanophotonic Waveguides developed at MIT · · Score: 1

    I, for one, welcome our new nanophotonic waveguide overlords.

  16. Simple answer on How Many Wireless Technologies Can We Handle? · · Score: 4, Funny

    42.

  17. This has happened a few times before on Man Dies After 50-hour Gaming Marathon · · Score: 1

    Maybe it's a byproduct of the culture of videogaming in S.Korea. Maybe it's just people with obssessive-compulsive personnalities choosing passtimes they really should not.Maybe it's that videogames are the Devil's tool and need to be restricted. Which do you think the media will repeat ad nauseam? Heh.

  18. Hopefully all future spaceships on Podcasting from Space · · Score: 4, Funny

    Will have escape podcasts. *rimshot*

  19. Lazyness or lack of resource? on Copyright Office: Everyone Uses MSIE, Right? · · Score: 2, Insightful

    I'm willing to bet it's a combination of these factors and not out of malice or of spite for Firefox and other browsers. No need to get /.'s collective panties in a bunch, I'm sure they're willing to fully cooperate with said users to develo pa solution that satisfies all parties.

  20. Oh come on on When Should You Buy Your Kid A Laptop? · · Score: 1

    Yeah, your anecdotal evidence sure destroys my generalization.

    Here's some more "evidence". Every god damn kid I see hands in flawless, 0* error papers when they have access to them, and FILLED with errors if not. Magic?

    *or close, scs aren't perfect

  21. Oh please on When Should You Buy Your Kid A Laptop? · · Score: 3, Insightful

    What ever happened to pen and paper? God forbid we actually make kids LEARN the English language, let's just hook them up to spellcheckers ASAP and stop worrying about it.

    I don't think ANY child should be given free acess to a spellchecker until he or she can read and write at a college level. It's meant to allievate your work, not do it for you.

  22. Theorhetically yes on Extra Daylight Savings May Confuse the Gadgets · · Score: 1

    By allowing companies to make the most use of daylight hours during which they do not need to light their facilities as much.
    In reality? No clue.

  23. He might deny it.. on Microsoft Linux Lab Manager Responds · · Score: 1

    But I think he found out that Microsoft makes some damned good Kool-Aid.

  24. Precisely on Linux Feels Growing Pains · · Score: 1

    Linux is not in the game to be popular, it's in the game to be GOOD. Which was my point, but apparently that's trolling in a Linux topic ?_?

  25. Linux will need to act popular to be popular on Linux Feels Growing Pains · · Score: 1, Troll

    Heh, interesting catch-22 thinking. By interesting I mean "silly".
