  1. Logo on Month of Apple Bugs - First Bug Unveiled · · Score: 1

    The logo on their blog is very distrurbing

  2. Why? on List of Polish Spies Leaked On The Internet · · Score: 1

    Why post about it on slashdot then? It will make it even more popular.

    Oh snap, after all they are only polish, nobody cares about what happens to them.[/sarcasm]

  3. Re:an explanation about France... on Ubisoft CEO Speaks out Against EA Move · · Score: 1

    hmm, France Telecom was already very large when they bought Orange. They already had Itineris (1st mobile operator in France) and only wanted a cool name and logo to expend in europe.
    And AFAIK, France Telecom *founded* Wanadoo :P

    Vivendi is closer to EA than anything else. They had lots of money to spend and bought a lot.

  4. Re:I predict... on Usenet Psychic Wars With Wikipedia · · Score: 1, Funny

    unless Sollog himself graces us with a +6 insightful

  5. Happy on System Shock 2 Retrospect...and Possible Followup? · · Score: 1

    This is the happiest day in my life.

    Ok I may be overreacting a little, but I really loved that game. Even if they don't make a real sequel (for legal reason), I'll be glad to play this kind of game again :)

  6. Duh on John Carmack Retiring? · · Score: 1

    I seem to remember he said he was quiting after his next game right after Doom 3 was released.

  7. Re:Poor Fabian on Fabian Pascal Reacts · · Score: 3, Insightful

    Did you even bother reading his article and the previous discussion?
    He mentions his origins because that's what stupid slashdotters attacked him on last time.

  8. Re:Don't get your hopes up... on Linux, OS X Ports For Star Wars: Battlefront? · · Score: 1

    lol I made a quick google search about that because I wasn't sure ;)

    But yeah it seems Republic Commando is the one using the Unreal engine.

  9. Re:Don't get your hopes up... on Linux, OS X Ports For Star Wars: Battlefront? · · Score: 2, Insightful

    It's based on the Unreal engine, which has already been ported to Linux/Mac countless times.
    Unless they have altered the renderer a lot, there's not reason not to port it as well...

  10. Re:Microsoft Is Desperate on Windows XP To Get Longhorn Technologies · · Score: 1

    WinFX and the integration of .NET support your argument, but I think MS is really aiming at thin clients. That's what XAML is about.

  11. Re:One competitor already finished on Windows XP To Get Longhorn Technologies · · Score: 1

    Well, Mozilla had XUL for a few years, and the XForm specification is dating too, but, aside from the Mozilla team itself, nobody use them.

    XAML will be released with an userfriendly (Clippy?) IDE with loads of hype and advertisement, and it will be used.

  12. What's surprising? on Fewer Computer Science Majors · · Score: 5, Insightful

    I find this a bit arrogant. The USA population doesn't even represent 5% of the world population. That's nothing compared to countries like India.

  13. Re:Small warning on Windows XP SP2 In Release · · Score: 1

    Hmm thanks a ton for that warning. I'm runnin a AMD64 and a few emulators :)

    Anyway, I guess it works like the compatibility settings and can be set per application.
    I would check it out right now, but have to wait for Microsoft to release the damn french service pack instead :p

  14. Can you say... on 70% Of 2004 Virus Activity Down To One Man · · Score: 5, Interesting

    Scapegoat?

    Isn't he the one Valve blamed for the HL2 source code theft as well?

  15. Re:Less popular than 53 more things to do in zero on Hitchhiker's Guide Trailer Online · · Score: 1

    You still have to play the adventure game ;)

  16. Re:"Santa Claus Organization" on Groklaw Debunks SCO's ELF Heist · · Score: 1

    Come on, we all know Santa Claus' village is in Finland, in Laponia precisely ;)

  17. Please... on Castle Wolfenstein Returned To, Again? · · Score: 2, Insightful

    Let it die!

  18. One liner? on 120 Years of Electronic Music · · Score: 2

    What with the one liner? No link, no cheap stab at MS or Linux?
    There should be a minimum lenght for news and comments, otherwise this place will look like a cheap blog... oh wait!

  19. Re:AMD64 ISOs anyone? on Slackware 10.0 Officially Released · · Score: 1

    I too wish there was a AMD64 version.
    I've been using slackware a bit, but when I got an AMD64, I couldn't get the 64 bit NVIDIA drivers (not my fault, they know it's bugged ;)).

    So I have to use Mandrake 10 now :(

    I know there won't be an AMD64 version before long, but I'd like a little guide on how to build slackware from the source to get it work fully on a 64 bit CPU.
    Anybody can help me here?

  20. Re:History of surrender for loud mouthed americans on France Considers Open Source · · Score: 1

    Don't bother, we're on /. here. The place where you're ranked a +5 funny for this kind of joke. This whole discussion is full of that shit. I even complained in another post, and the incriminated post only went from +5 to +4. *clap clap* Thanks /., thank you for showing us once more that you don't give a horse shit to your European (and french) readers. -- conner_bw, I don't think the demographic loss of WW1 has so much to do with the WW2 defeat than the general dislike of frenchmen for war after centuries of nearly uninterrupted war.

  21. Re:What will French geeks be like I wonder? on France Considers Open Source · · Score: 1

    Ok. Let's read the article together. Just because the french _government_ _may_ use _more_ OSS doesn't mean nobody has been using linux here in France. Ever heard about Mandrake?

  22. Re:France Would Save More Costs on France Considers Open Source · · Score: 1

    Well our economy (especialy employment) is not that good, otherwise our governement wouldn't try to save a few $ with OSS :P

  23. Re:Heh on France Considers Open Source · · Score: 0, Flamebait

    Slashdog moderation is going way down the hill. +5 for the same old anti-french joke. Nice job. Anyway, RMS came to France last month, he was invited by my school for a open source day or something like that with other famous-ish people.

  24. Cache? on Gmail Spam Filter Testing · · Score: 5, Funny

    Do you really expect the Google servers to go down because of /.? ;)

  25. Re:Who cares? on Japanese Anime Industry In Danger Of Fragmentation · · Score: 2, Funny

    Well, if you've spent years learning japanese so you can watch japanese anime, you'd be rather pissed off now that you have to learn korean or chinese ;)
