  1. Re:Copyright is a crime against humanity on Canadian Copyright Group Seeks To License the Net · · Score: 1

    Come and see the violence inherent in the system. HELP! HELP! I'm being repressed!

  2. Re:"theoretical" on OpenOffice.org Security 'Insufficient' · · Score: 1

    "It's only a theory."

  3. Re:Could someone remind me.. on Surprising Burning Crusade Details for WoW · · Score: 3, Insightful
    News for Nerds
    WoW is the current favorite. Just like not too long ago you heard all about Half-Life, and before that Doom, and before that ...

    The Science and Technology is only one aspect of what the site is about.
  4. Re:WTF?? on Surprising Burning Crusade Details for WoW · · Score: 1

    Because raiding is all WoW offers.

  5. Re:Are there any left? on Can a Gaming Cafe be Successful? · · Score: 2, Informative

    In places other then the US and Canada, they seem to do very well.

  6. Re:What is document management anyway? on Big Blue's Software Spending Spree · · Score: 1

    Organizing your desk.

  7. Re:And then GPLv4 will come out on The FSF, GPLv3 and DRM · · Score: 1

    It's called Free as in Richard Stallman. As long as he has no problem with what you're doing, you're free to do it, If he doesn't like it, he'll demonize it and try to 'protect' the world from it.

  8. Was it... on James A. Van Allen - Dies at 91 · · Score: 1

    Radiation poisoning?

  9. Re:Agreed on Apple vs Microsoft- Who's the Copycat? · · Score: 4, Insightful

    Well as someone who is not so damn sensitive about things and looks at everything as some sort of personal insult, the latest Apple ads have made me laugh.

  10. Re:Agreed on Apple vs Microsoft- Who's the Copycat? · · Score: 4, Insightful

    It's called marketing. Besides it plays into peoples perceptions of MS products. Even people who don't know why they should dislike Windows say they do because it's expected, Apples campaigns simply play into that.

  11. Warning! on Transgaming Technologies and Mac Developers · · Score: 5, Funny
    result in a paradigm shift
    Nonsensical statements ahead.
  12. Re:Maybe we'll start seeing Intel graphics clones. on Intel Open Sources Graphics Drivers · · Score: 1
    the REAL reason they don't open their drivers is because they're using stuff they know is the intellectual property of others
    Very good, it's called licensing. Yes it happens, yes there are things in the binary drivers from nVidida and ATi that neither own.
  13. Re:Other way around? on New Kind of Spam 'Un-Training' Filters? · · Score: 1

    Either way, your spam filters become increasingly useless.

  14. Re:Value of their feeds? on Yahoo! Launches Python Developer Center · · Score: 3, Insightful
    I expect them to be available to me in the future
    Why? It's their service, they could stop it or move it to a pay service at any time. Guess what, anyone providing a free service could do that even (gasp) Google. They could make GMail a pay service tomorrow if they felt like it.

    Your expectations seem to be ever so slightly unrealistic.
  15. Re:In the future this will be bigger on 40 Percent of World of Warcraft Players Addicted · · Score: 1

    No they make them fun and so you want to play them. However, todays society has thrown out the idea of personal responsibility so everything is evil as it has to be something else's or someone else's fault you became an asshole. I look at gambling the same way, you have no self control but that's your problem now isn't it. Its not a damn addiction its a game that people enjoy but *you* never learned to be an adult and like every child it must be someone else's fault.

  16. Re:Interesting? on 9th Annual AUV Competition Results · · Score: 4, Insightful

    Because most or all of the other teams didn't use XP Embedded? Because XP Embedded is not what most people first think of for applications like this? Because this is Slashdot?

  17. Re:Oooo... Killer on Network Card for Gamers - Uses Linux to Reduce Lag · · Score: 1

    Since the majority of gamers see their computers as the mysterious and magical box that their parents do, my guess is yes, it works perfectly.

  18. Re:What age group? on Borland Announces the Return of the Turbo Products, with Video · · Score: 4, Funny
    we are talking about college students, not elementary school, right?
    What's the difference?
  19. Re:Delphi??? on Borland Announces the Return of the Turbo Products, with Video · · Score: 1

    Well they have added C# to the family too.

  20. His parents were right on Dell Reflects on 25 Years of PCs · · Score: -1, Troll

    He should have stayed in school so his name didn't become attached to the giant piles of crap his company produces.

  21. Re:Vector based graphics systems are the answer on Windows Vista and the Future of Hardware · · Score: 1
    Lossless/procedural scaling allows detail to go up as resolution rises instead of apparent quality going down. I believe that Vector Icons and Fonts are a target for KDE4.
    Everything that was old is new again. Welcome to Irix.
  22. Oh great on Google Signs $900m MySpace Deal · · Score: 0, Redundant

    Like retarded, useless blogs weren't already clogging Googles usefulness. I can't wait till Googles replacement shows up so I can have a year or two of decent search results again.

  23. I recognize the words on The Sometimes Fallacy of The Long Tail · · Score: 1

    I know the language the words are written in, but strung together like that they make no sense.

  24. Re:Did anyone not expect this? on VMWare Announces Version for OS X In Development · · Score: 1

    Well they have also been asked to support Solaris x86 as a host platform since it's also a supported guest but it seems like thats not going to happen. So having a OS X client just because OS X is now on Intel was not a foregone conclusion.

  25. Re:Well, if you really want to on What's Fedora Up To? Ask the Project Leader · · Score: 1

    I have a better one.

    What do you think will be the Linux distro of the day after Ubuntu looses favour like every other geek favorite has?
