  3. Re:Bill buys Apple? on iPod Most Popular Music Player on Microsoft Campus · · Score: 1
    As someone who has spent quite a bit of time in Pepsi bottling plants (not working for Pepsi), at least on the Pepsi side, they have no access to free Pepsi at the plant, and the vending machines are actually quite expensive.


    My uncle used to work for pepsi (delivery driver I think) and he said the same thing. It was much cheaper to buy from the gas station he was delviering to then to buy straight from pepsi.
  4. Re:CmdrTaco Cracked, Various Slashdot Editors Dupe on Mobil SpeedPass, Various Car RFID Car Keys Cracked · · Score: 1

  6. Re:Good on Sony Admits MP3 Error · · Score: 1
    It reminds me of fox news suing the fox channel for alledgedly slandering them in an episode of the simpsons. It was eventually stopped by rupert murdock himself, he quite sensibly decided it was silly for two companies he owns to sue each other. conglomerates.

  7. Is it 2001? on Disney Plans Tron Remake · · Score: 1

    I had heard that they put the movie plans on hold shorty before the game's release and then when the game didn't sell as well as expected they dropped the idea of a movie completely.

  8. Welcome to last October on Google Exposes Web Surveillance Cams · · Score: 5, Interesting

    Johnny at IHackStuff has a huge list of fun things like this you can get from google.

  9. Re:This is new? on The Law as a Parent · · Score: 1

    Movies and music are not regulated by law. They are self regulated, same as video games. Why should one form of speech be any different from the other?

  10. Re:This style vs. Miyazaki on A Scanner Darkly Sneak-Peek · · Score: 2, Informative

    You do realise "this more 'realistic' style" is just advanced rotoscoping? They film it like a normal movie then just animate on top of that. That is why it looks like there is great depth, because there actually is depth.

  11. Re:Not dead yet on Last Manufacturer of Pro Analog Audio Tape Closes · · Score: 1
    There's a special magic to it that can't be replaced.

    Yeah, nostalgia.

    You misspelled sharing.

  14. Re:I actually took it to the boardroom on Penn State Tells Students To Ditch IE · · Score: 3, Funny

    Wait, making students take a class to teach them something at a university is thinking outside the box? jeez, and I thought the college I went to was bad.

  15. Re:Strawberry Shortcake and American Greetings on Ask Gabe and Tycho of Penny Arcade · · Score: 1

    because seeing Strawberry Shortcake and Plum Pudding in an S&M encounter is perfectly routine for those characters...
    Face it, they were parodying SS too, PA just didn't want to fight it as defending yourself costs money and time.

  16. Re:China Icon on China Closes 1,600 "Internet Bars" · · Score: 1

    >> In general, create a hodge-podge of images that convey the impression of a dreary hell-hole of existence.

  23. Re:Boycott == worse music on Grokster Decision Won't Stop RIAA, MPAA Suits · · Score: 1
    Now, this means that the big record companies see the demand shifting towards garbage (okay, more garbage than usual). So they produce more garbage.
    You got something against Shirley Manson?
  24. Re:Duh on Windows XP To Get Longhorn Technologies · · Score: 1
    Think about it: if Longhorn is a major break from Win2k3/WinXP, and products written for Longhorn (using Avalon, XAML, Indigo features, taking advantage of WinFS, etc.) won't run on these older technologies, what software company in its right mind would write code using said technologies? NONE.


    Just like how no company has written programs that work exclusivly on 2k/xp/2k3 and not 95/98/me.
    Oh wait...
