  1. Re:AFI? on GTA: San Andreas Radio and Soundtrack · · Score: 1
    Ha, no good sir.

    It's a really crappy teenybopper Punk band. You're best off not knowing about them. It's really a tragedy when a classic NIN track is ruined by people who have no idea what music is.

  2. Terrible Cover on GTA: San Andreas Radio and Soundtrack · · Score: 1

    It's been announced awhile back that AFI's cover of Nine Inch Nails' "Head Like a Hole" will be on the Alternative Rock station.

    Deer Hunter was something revolutionary in the way of games. That is still the only game that my dad played and actually liked that was an action game. Deer Hunter wasnt just another hunting sim, it made it much more realistic.

    And yes, I still have the original copy.

  4. My thoughts on John Deere American Farmer - The Game · · Score: 2, Insightful
    I remember years ago when I was 5, I discovered SimFarm for our Mac Classic and bought it because I lived on a farm and thought my dad was the greatest guy in the world. I remember showing it to him the first time and he said it was harder than actual farming.

    I don't think he was used to playing sim games.

    Anyways, I honestly can't see this game ever having any commercial success. It looks like it is destined to become one of those bargain sub $20 Wal-Mart games. Farming doesn't attract mainstream gamers.

    Well seeing that you don't even have the balls to get a slashdot UID, I really doubt you could do much better. Just STFU and give this guy the credit he deserves.

    Instead of packing up and running every time something happens that you don't like, why not stick around here and fight for what you believe in?


    Because until the higher-ups in the judicial system listen to the little guys (the real heroes) without being biased towards slick-talking companymen, nothing will get accomplished...


    Hey, Canada. Got room for one more?

    While I wholeheartedly disagree with your "one click" philosophy....

    I'm still not sure why most of the experienced Linux users don't like the one-click thing..maybe it's pride, which I could understand...

    But when it comes down to it, it's not meant to make it so easy that Joe Win32VirusDownloader can install something while on morphine, it's just meant to make it easier and less complicated...

    I don't know what your reasons are, but I'm sure they're good...but no one's tryin to take the Linux experience away....Just improve it..

    Feel free to reply, and sorry about the Debian thing, I'm still learnin..

  13. My experience on Build From Source vs. Packages? · · Score: 3, Interesting
    Disclaimer: I'm only 15 and am a semi-newbie to Linux.

    Anyways, I've found that by far the easiest and most simplistic and time-saving method is to use rpms or debs. But of any distro, Lindows has it down to one or two clicks...though, they're software database subscription is a serious money leech..

    If it was up to me, source would always be an option to use, and the install process for rpms and debs would be one click and automatically update themselves into Menus and such..

    Just a few thoughts..

  14. Reminds me of on Latest Chernobyl Motorcycle Photos · · Score: 4, Insightful
    the recent Danny Boyle film 28 Days Later.

    While the evacuated scenes of London in the film don't have the wear and tear of a few decades of desertion like Chernobyl does, it kind of gives you a representation of what it might be like to be there.

    Scary stuff...What's our world coming to?

    Today the multi-billion dollar corporation Microsoft closed up shop. Few know why, but we had a chance to ask Bill Gates why.

  18. My 2 Cents on Is the Key to Linux a Games-Based Distro? · · Score: 1, Insightful
    First off, let me say that I'm only 15 and know next to nothing of OS design, marketing and budget restraints, and programming feasability, but I just want to get my ideas across. Mod me down to "Redundant" or "Offtopic" if you want, but as long as at least 1 other person reads this without instant judgement I will be happy..

    But, from what I can tell, the average user (read: practically anyone who doesn't know what slashdot is) really wants a few things:

    1.) An easy-to-use GUI

    2.) No confusing setup (anything that requires you to do more than pick a type of setup and directory)

    3.) Basic pre-configured Multimedia, Internet, and Office Suite. (all of which, Linux does offer, I know, but setting up Multimedia and codecs in Linux is not fun for a newbie)

    4.) No constant reboots (which Linux has achieved--good job, folks!)

    5.) Easy-to-Install Software (and of all the distros, I must say that Lindows has the process right, though, in my opinion, not the correct marketing technique.)

    Well, that's all that I could think of. If you have an additions or subtractions, feel free to reply. I hope I have contributed a decent statement to this topic and that you all recieved my comments openly.
