  1. Prepare to burn karma... on FCC Abandons Linesharing, Kills DSL Competition · · Score: 2, Insightful

    /sarcasm on

    Dammit, thats so unfair. The government should force companies to sell their property to other companies at cheap rates. Why should companies benefit from investing in infrastructure? The big companies should just buy lines for other small companies to use for free because they have more money. Damn capitalist pigs.

    Seriously? Anyone here believe in private property? I mean, would it be fair to for the government to force you to fix your relatives computers whenever they wanted because you have more knowledge then them? Or you to lone your car to the homeless guy down the street because you have more resources then them? I mean, if you want to, then sure. But to force you??

  2. Mmmm. Tasty O'Reilly... on Mike and Phani's Essential C++ Techniques · · Score: 1

    I'm sure that this is redundant, but C++: The Core Language by Gregory Satir & Doug Brown is a really good C++ for beginners book or "The Weasel/Skunk/Whatever that is Book".

  3. Re:Woo - Hoo on Dell Dropping The Floppy · · Score: 5, Funny

    Hopefully they get rid of all of the "extra" stupid buttons on the mouse too...

  4. Damn on Digital Celebrities · · Score: 2, Funny

    [sarcasm]
    This whole time I thought that MTV and Clear Channel were picking songs that were really good instead of just shoving whatever happens to be popular down my throat.

  5. Ahh, Behold the Power of Thesaurus on A Word a Day · · Score: 1

    Well, this is a shame. This is a well written, edifying assessment. In spite of this, the manuscript doesn't really do anything for me. I just wanted to articulate my exhilaration with the excellence of the evaluation. This brings back the old days of paper writing in middle school. With a little writing and the powers of thesaurus (shift-f7) = A on papers. :)

  6. Re:Yeah, but on Advergames · · Score: 1

    Mmmm.. tasty Anonymous Cowards. Yeah, that's impossible! Like going to the moon, or flying through the air, or using proper grammar when you are obviously of below average IQ. Have you ever seen a business card/cd? Well maybe you haven't, but they exist. I'm sure that given money/time/evil, Coke/Pepsi will make people play their game before you can even drink the beverage.

  7. Yeah, but on Advergames · · Score: 2, Interesting

    if the games are all horrible, then it actualy hurts the company. Wait until Coke/Pepsi have cd's attached to the can with a horrible game on them. Guess what? It's not free, they raise the price to pay for stupid things like this. Every game like this = higher price on stuff. OTOH, America's Army is something I'd want my tax money spent on every time. ;)
