  1. Personally. on Mod Chips Up, Game Industry Revenues Down? · · Score: 1

    Personally I use my xbox for very little gaming. The small bit of gaming I do do on it are with actual games I have bought.

    I on the other hand use my xbox as part of my home theater. The ablity to play any format, stream from my servers, etc is wonderful. It can do things that would have cost me a lot more money to do with other appliances.

    Just my 2c

    Might be considered ot, but wanted to add this link. This quote made me think of this.

    "The fact that someone even attempted to convert them, let alone that they succeeded, is bad enough. What was wrong with their belief system before that some missionary felt it their duty to "save" these "savages"?"

    Take a read.

    "When you get people with above average intelligence, who may have been abused by those whom they consider "lower" than themselves, you get egotistical bastards. Elitists. Assholes."
    Yeh, the people that when you ask a legitimate question get the reply "rtfm", or something just as asinine. And this is ok.
    OT. A few manners, is it really that tough?
    Peace

  5. Common sense? on Linus Explains his Patch Policy · · Score: 5, Insightful

    Shouldn't much of this be common sense to the average individual. Maybe not the specifics but the general concept, whining won't help.
    When did this practice become so common. Far too often do you hear someone griping about something before ever going about it in the correct way.
