  1. Re:shhh... on Tearing Down China's Great Firewall · · Score: 1

    Sorry to spam but I believe the word you're looking for is: Circumcision

    As in: ... its only a matter of time before Chinese officials find a way to circumvent the circumcision; or

    In Soviet Russiah, firewall circumcise you!

  2. Re:Finally. on ESRB Changes Oblivion's Rating to 'Mature' · · Score: 1

    Now if you'll excuse me, I'll go buy one of the last 'T'-labeled games, and sell it for a profit later on.

    In fact, developers from now on should include these things in it to gain the publicity. If ESRB makes the boob jobs penalty harsh, we do a penis job. Just watch when Battlefield 3 comes out..

    Ok I will let that bragright pass by. No next time ok? Haha!

    No I haven't but now that I know I'll blame you for taking away my precious life hours. >.

  5. Re:Yeah, but, that's not the same as... on Abandoned Games · · Score: 1

    Dude, just to show props and thanks for a great game. I still have my FS2 in a box and actually bought it 2 years ago from an old store. The only game I played in this genre before FS2 was Wing Commander. Btw just so you know FS2 works flawlessly in Windows XP and I am still waiting to get a FFB stick for it later.

  6. Re:not driving at all better (a word of caution). on Leaving Early May Cost You Time · · Score: 1

    Just a word, please use your time wisely now that you're closer to work and plan to spend more time with your family. And be determined to carry out your plans. To my experience, I've seen countless employees who live close to work wastes time the same way instead of on a bus, on something else.

    Spending quality time with family takes dedication, much like everything else, as Morgan Freeman says in Bruce Almighty: Turning water into wine isn't a miracle, it's magic. A mother who works 2 jobs and 1 more at nite and still be able to spend time with her kids and go to their baseball games, is a miracle.

  7. Starving children in Indonesia, what choice? on Scientists Find Brain Cells Linked to Choice · · Score: 1

    I wonder if those cells are going to devolutionize in the starving children or race in the world since they do not have the luxury of choice as we do. Or that the limited number of choices they have greatly limits the growth of those cells. -Mr. Anderson

    Yeah whatever dude (j/k).. I am buying the revo anyway :)

  9. Re:Jump to conclusions much? on You Say You Want A Revolution? · · Score: 1

    Again as I stated in other thread concerning consoles. It's the game that makes me buy a console. Nintendo for Mario, PC Engine for Y's, Dreamcast for crazy taxi, PS2 for GT4. Launching an FPS ain't gona lure me enough yet until something like Star Wars: Lightsaber Academy comes along. oooo *drools*.

  10. Re:Hardware isn't everything.... on Revolution Horsepower Revealed · · Score: 1

    The original Xbox is, on paper, much more powerful than the GameCube and yet for my money (and I own many games on both of these systems), nothing on the original Xbox looks nearly as good as Resident Evil 4 on the GameCube.

    Exactly matey, I got the PS2 at the time of Grand Turismo 4 launch. My uber 1337 6800GT isn't pumping out near as good fluidity as the GT4. It's the GAMES that makes me buy consoles, crazy taxi for dreamcast, gt4 for ps2, and now, jedi knight ultra uber slash with saber for revolution. Ahem.

  11. As in life generally.. on Beware Your Online Presence · · Score: 1, Insightful

    I have the same attitude as in life generally. If you can't put up with my online presence and failed to acknowledge that it's an "online presence ONLY" while judging me solely on my online presence, I don't think I will want to work with you in "person".

    I am just worried that the orgasmic electrical impulse may fry the circuit.

    Just don't go releasing the cysects during the peak mating seasons and you'll be fine.

  14. Re:I find it somewhat disturbing... on Hyperdrive and Space Propulsion · · Score: 1

    Now if we find out that there's no way to do that in the timeframe we have left down here - that's when the real fun starts.

    That's exactly what I was looking for. All men equal when the Tsunami strikes Hong Kong, Boom, where you gonna run now B*?

    Seriously, people forgets their priorities in life unless they're pushed down to the point when they're deprived of their basic needs. That's when they know what's important and what's not. I hate seeing kids forgetting that.

  15. Re:something about a bridge in New York... on Hyperdrive and Space Propulsion · · Score: 1

    I guess it'll be fine to have sechs with "them".

    However, the session might not bring you the same satisfaction as you'd get by having sechs with women; not that we know in slashdot anyway.

    I think I won't be too please to have sechs with a cow with 8 boobs; and a green alien with slime vigina + 3 dicks won't please me too much. Good question though.

  16. Re:duh! on Adult Gamers and Their Ulterior Motives for Gaming · · Score: 1

    This is why I never got into Counterstrike. I play games to relax, not wind myself up into gordian knots of ultra tension while juggling fifty different variables around in my head only to have someone unexpectedly pull the plug by using a rail gun or nearest cultural equivilent.

    It's funny but somehow I find the challenge you mention quite relaxing compared to the mundane "challenge" we face everyday at work. I do graphic design and yes we have our challenges but most of the time the client would rather take in "dull but safe" visuals instead of "dynamic but risky (to present to the boss)" visuals. And eventhough I do my best job to slide in function and form, it feels pretty weak at the end of the day.

    That's when I fire up some CS:S at home and pwn some n00bs; and relax a bit.

  17. Chinese Wisdom 4 You. on Exposing Children to Technology? · · Score: 1

    Here're some Chinese wisdom for you all the way from Hong Kong:

    1. Indulging exclusively on anything is bad. Too much water can kill you; too much oxygen is toxic. While you're thinking of enabling them when they're young, don't forget that they still need love and arts.

    2. Give them legos, or playdols. Or as others suggests, a bag of glass. Give them something that they can express their imagination upon. (i.e. p0rn). Seriously, if I were you, yes I would enable them in technology; but at the same time I would also teach them how to make music with the computer, how to draw with a nice wacom tablet and corel painter.

    Don't just teach them how to write actionscripts and "slashdot" websites. Let them explore.

    3. Once you give them Sam and Max, or Dune 2, or other highly addictive games, it's good to set a time limit. a. This gives them some time daily to feel that there's a family to attend to. b. It trains them to awp better, faster, and more accurate in CS when you have a deadline.

    4. Definitely no battery operated love gadgets.

  18. Re:What's the minimum then? on Moore's Law Staying Strong Through 30nm · · Score: 1

    Thanks. So you're saying that our first challenge is to have the "distance between the source and drain in the FETs" = 1 atom thick. Then the next challenge would be developing a whole new process in using subatomic particles to switch. That of course, we're still using this "transistor" method when we get there.

  19. What's the minium then? on Moore's Law Staying Strong Through 30nm · · Score: 4, Interesting

    I am too lazy to learn these things from scratch but would anyone cared to tell us what's the theoretical minimum width we can go before eletrons starts jumping wires? I hope it's not 5nm.

  20. Losing Jobs. on Real Warriors Trained In Virtual Worlds · · Score: 1

    They can use CS, add de_aztec btw heh. The problem is this war thing is much mroe complicated than just about killing the other team. There're lotsa money going on, lotsa jobs. Lots of people die in a war, but very many also gain from the war. If we start fighting wars using CS, or the newest DoD:S, many people will be angry with you and wallhacks j00 with awp.

  21. Food. on Computer Addiction or Just Modern Life? · · Score: 1

    People are addicted to computers and the internet the same way they're addicted to food, or sleep. It's a part of life.
