    It's about the rights, dumbass.

    Oops! Sorry, Red!

  2. Re:Horrible. on No Third-party Apps on iPhone Says Jobs · · Score: 1

    While I agree with you wholeheartedly, at least it's a step up. Unlike your average MS product, Apple offerings tend to be prettier and crash less.

    Hooray for progress (sort of)!

  3. Re:Trademark info on Cisco Sues Apple Over iPhone Trademark · · Score: 1

    iMobile would work in the UK. I just don't know how swiftly it would take off.

  4. Re:Depends how much of a dick you are... on Do You Tell a Job Candidate How Badly They Did? · · Score: 1

    Aw. come on mods! Technically that's a flamebait post, not a troll. Besides, it was pretty fucking funny!

  5. Re:*shrug* on Gates Pegs Nintendo, Not Sony, as Toughest Competition · · Score: 1

    It's pretty clever psy-ops when you think about it. Whether or not the Wii is actually doing better than the PS3 doesn't matter. What matters is the perception that it is. Throw in a press conference where you casually say that the company that handed you your ass last generation is now irrelevant, and bingo, you've got Sony scrambling around looking for their dick. Brilliant.

    Hey, Microsoft called. They want their Xbox joke back.

  7. Re:Agreed on How Apple Kept the iPhone Secret · · Score: 2, Funny

    Cause it looks like an overpriced hunk of junk to me.

    By definition, pretty much all current cellphones on the market are overpriced hunks of junk. I mean, what's the RAZR, except for a form factor that would fit into a Nun's vagina?

    Hehe, I've already started doing that in Firehose - let the great goolge tagging of '07 begin!

  9. Mod parent up on EMI Considers Abandoning DRM on CDs · · Score: 0

    CDs have a lot more going against them than just some silly DRM (that doesn't even work as intended, no less).

    Sorry to threadjack, but how many people had to mispell google to creat that tag?

    Could you mention what that agenda is? You left it out in your comment.

    For Win2k, all you need to worry about is Service pack 4 and Update Rollup 1.

    Banks charge fees for accounts that don't keep high balances because they don't make money on them.

    Bullshit. Banks are (supposed) to be about aggregation. It shouldn't matter if you have 50 or 50 mil in your account, the bank is still using your money to lend out at higher rates than they pay you.

  16. HAHAHAHA on Bush Claims Mail Can Be Opened Without Warrant · · Score: 1

    Sadly, I'm about 2000 miles away, otherwise I'd show you what a 6'6" pissed off Canadian looks like in the flesh quite happily.

    By the way, love the nick, but mine is bigger.

    Y'know, looking at all thes posts modded flamebait or troll, it occurs to me I'm going to bitchslap the next right-wing pussy who complains of the heavy liberal bias on Slashdot.

    As for moderation on this comment, knock yourselves out, fuckers. Karma to burn, etc.

  18. Re:Good Luck to him on Jack Thompson Gearing Up For GTA IV Fight · · Score: 2, Funny

    I used to do the same thing with film critic Alexander Walker. If he hated a film, then it was most likely something I would enjoy. Worked like a charm.

  19. Re:Brilliant! on Wal-Mart Is Pushing Compact Fluorescent Bulbs · · Score: 1

    Thankyou! I can never understand why people want to light up their houses like a Maximum Security prison.

    As for the delay, get over it! CF's ping is still under a 100 :)

    I concur on the immigration officers. I'm all for doing your job to a high degree of competency, but smile fucker, you're the welcome wagon, remember?

    (Just a side not, does it irk anyone else that the Galactica has either gotten twice as powerful, or its crew twice as competant since the start of the show?

    Well, when they lost the Pegasus, they kept the crew and the Vipers and Raptors IIRC. So yes, twice as competent sounds about right ;)

    Speaking of which, maybe man was created when God went through puberty and...umm...you know, did a little too much "one-handed websurfing". I mean, doesn't the bible say that he sowed his seed all over the land?

    That's disgusting! We need to get this filth off the shelves! Won't somebody think of the children?
