  1. Parody is a democratic right on Fox News Considered Suing Fox's "The Simpsons" · · Score: 2, Insightful

    Everybody should know, as we live in a democratic society:
    Doing a parody is a given right in democracy.

    I do not, however, know if this Simpson episode broke copyright laws. Anyone helpful enough to explain?

  2. Re:Mac OS X is what Linux wants to be? on Mac OS X 10.3 vs. Linux · · Score: 1

    Am I missing somthing?

    Yes. A shelf of Linux games.

  3. Mac OS X is what Linux wants to be? on Mac OS X 10.3 vs. Linux · · Score: 3, Insightful

    This is not to troll, but this is what I've been saying to my Linux pals a couple of time when Linux vs OS X has come up.... That Linux want to become Mac OS X.

    Major applications ported to it. (no WINE)

    Lots of games. (not Tuxracer!)

    And it's cool... (not trying to copy existing GUI's)

  4. Hahahah! The irony! on Gaming Life In Iraq · · Score: 1

    To think... Maybe one of those gaming caffe's have Red Alert 2? Then Iraqies can play as themselves in a war game!
    But to their disappointment, they're on the bad side! :-)

  5. What's so secret about the campus? on Microsoft Fires Mac Fan For Blog Photo · · Score: 1

    One picture like that made him fired? What about this picture?!

    Will this satellite photo piss off Microsoft so much that they send their ninjas off to assasinate me?

  6. The FCC is right on Court Upholds FCC's 2007 Deadline For Digital TV · · Score: 1

    Sometimes the industry doesn't know what's best and the consumers don't know what's best, and here is a case of it. Thank god for the FCC to push this forward, otherwise it would've been stalled and stalled more than IPv6.

  7. Hell has finally frozen over...? on Diablo II 1.10 Patch Finally Released · · Score: 4, Funny

    If hell froze over, where the heck is my Duke Nukem Forever? ;-)

  8. Reason for software patents on An 'Open Letter to Apple' · · Score: 1

    Is this the reason why Software Patents are good? This can be prevented if the creator of that tool/utlility created an original idea and patented it.

  9. Emusic kills subscription on Windows iTunes Sells A Million Songs In 3.5 Days · · Score: 1
  10. Re:I don't really like it (yet) on Windows iTunes Sells A Million Songs In 3.5 Days · · Score: 1

    I don't think saving $2 on an album is that great of a bargain when the compression is lossy

    Good luck. If you can tell the difference between an ACC encoded song at 192 kbps file and a raw AIFF you might as well go back to vinyl.

  11. Re:One problem with ITunes on Windows iTunes Sells A Million Songs In 3.5 Days · · Score: 1

    The only problem with ITunes is that it uses MP4 files (DRM'ed). If they changed the format to MP3, I'd buy it in a second. Until then, Kazaa it is...

    Then you're going to be using Kazaa for all eternity. There is no way in hell that the RIAA is going to permit you to download unprotected songs.

  12. Buggy? on iTunes for Windows Reviews · · Score: 1

    I don't understand why people say that iTunes is buggy and problematic because it's Apple's software. Please... I installed it on 30+ Windows computers this Friday and not a single one of them had any problems what so ever till this day.

    I didn't even restart them after the installation, which proves that I like to live my life on the edge!

  13. The Microsoft logic... on Microsoft Dismisses Apple's iTunes for Windows · · Score: 1

    Invest money in making better products: Expensive.

    Badmouthing competitors hoping nobody will use them: Free.

  14. Lack of alternatives!? on MS Dissatisfaction High, Users Consider Switching · · Score: 1

    Hello? The Macintosh has existed for a long time. How come we suddenly don't exist to certain people? We have Office and ALL major programs, so I see no problem what so sever to switch.

  15. Other names... on Ridiculous Game Character Names Exposed · · Score: 2, Interesting

    Duke Nukem, Serious Sam, Max Payne...

  16. Re:Yeah, that patch has some problems ... on Star Wars Galaxies - Patch Woes? · · Score: 1

    but SoE has a good track record, when compared to companies like Blizzard. Has Blizzard even put patch 1.10 for Diablo II out on Battle.net, yet? What is it, now, 14 months?

    Don't go after Blizzard because it just make you look stupid. Diablo 2 is soon four years old. Can't you cut them some slack for releasing a patch that's the size of an half expansion pack for free?

  17. Internet Paradox on Microsoft Wins Browser War, Abandons 'Innovation' · · Score: 1

    If Microsoft removed Explorer from Windows. How would I download my browser?

  18. Microsoft to project themselves as "cool"? on Microsoft Wants to Project "Cool" Image · · Score: 1

    They're trying to make bald old white guys seem "cool" to the general public?

    Sheesh... Good luck with that! My guess is that they won't even top smoking cigarets.

  19. How to bypass this easily on Schools to Avoid: University of Florida · · Score: 1

    Use a non-WIndows operating system.

  20. Re:Too many connections! on The Borg MegaCube · · Score: 1

    1. Release huge DVD set of all episodes only in 1000 copies.
    2. ????
    3. Profit!

  21. Too many connections! on The Borg MegaCube · · Score: 0, Redundant

    Warning: Too many connections in /usr/local/psa/home/vhosts/dvddebate.com/httpdocs/ mainfile.php on line 17 Unable to select database

    Resistance is futile, you will be Slashdotted!

  22. Is it me? on The Matrix: Revolutions Theatrical Trailer · · Score: 3, Insightful

    Is it me or does it look like the movie will end with a typical Hollywood ending? Kind of sad really since the movie is so untypical Hollywood in every way -- this movie actually made me think for a change!

  23. Re:Why is anyone looking @ Slashdot? on More Linux Activity in German Government · · Score: 1

    Not by calling them whores.

  24. Re:Appalling on Californians Can Get Free MS-Settlement PCs · · Score: 1

    It's Anti-American to have a monopoly.

  25. Re:Only one state? on Californians Can Get Free MS-Settlement PCs · · Score: 1

    Regardless, doesn't MS have about 45 billion in cash?

    Yes! That's what makes this such an excellent plan!
