Maybe it's just because I have a brain, but honestly there's nothing wrong w/ the icons.
It should be common sense that a big red icon means "shutdown" or the green one means restart, considering the same colors are used on similar buttons on most other things...
Mention George Lucas and all of slashdot begins acting as if they could do better.
Puhlease.
Get back in line, because you know your stupid asses are the first ones that will be paying to see his stuff, regardless of what you're posting behind your secure anonymity.
I never said anything about the first two movies. Not even once, so the whole "because you think it's cool to be different" thing is pretty much crushed.
No no, in actuality, the movies aren't that bad seeing as how the first ones were kinda bad in the same sense (in terms of acting and whatnot).
It's the "cool" thing to do to ramble on and on about how much Lucas sucks. Don't believe me? Go look at all the posts that are modded up - almost each one is some mindless droning on and on about how their childhood is ruined or that they're going to hate the rest of their lives because the first three star wars didn't get them all giddy like they did when they were NINE YEARS OLD.
One Finnish guy writes an OS that screams "information wants to be free", and years later, a Finnish guy writes something to potentially destroy this very idea.
I bet there is some complex background story that we aren't aware of... like this guy is the secret love fruit of Linus Torvalds and Condoleeza Rice. He was persuaded to join the dark side of the Whores (read ??AA) and one day father and son will have a showdown of hax0r proportions.
The final battle will take place in Finland. Glasses will be smashed, pies will be broken, and computer boxes will be pwn3ed.
Sorry, but I signed no "social contract". I am not obligated to look any ads.
I hate this mentality that companies have in that "consumers" are expected to devote their lives to VIEWING ADS. Companies are just pissed that they can no longer make sheep out of those who acknowledge the problem and use wonderful tools like AdBlock.
Besides, if someone uses AdBlock, it means they don't WANT to view your ads, and if someone doesn't want to view your ads, guess what the chances are of them buying something from it? Oh, pretty slim to NONE.
Anyone who suddenly applauds Microsoft because of their RANDOM stance on battling Kiddie Porn is a sheep.
Why is it that the second anyone brings CHILDREN into the fray, they are painted as a saint? Oh, so Microsoft is okay now because they "care about the children"? Right.
You're just as bad for falling for it...
It's pretty sad when someone has to resort to "think about the children!" in order to garner attention. As if kiddie porn is this epidemic that's WAY out of control.
Hey, how about releasing an OSS application to stop the spread of worms and viruses that plague windows users? Oh wait, that's anti-virus software and you can make a profit on that... so nevermind.
Slashdot Mirror
The worst thing you can do is try to explain how something works that doesn't exist.. and without going into detail.
Sorry, I read that thing, and I still don't know how they work... probably BECAUSE THEY DON'T EXIST. Make one, then this story might be interesting.
Until then, you might wanna waste time on finding things like what OS the Matrix runs on, and how much RAM each machine counterpart has.
Hahaha dude, it's not rocket science... c'mon.

NOTHING from Microsoft is disappointing.
I call shenanigans.
blah blah blah, Lucas ruined my childhood, blah blah blah Episode 1 sucked, blah blah blah more money for his Yachts blah blah blah.
Meanwhile, your hypocritical asses are the FIRST ONES IN LINE to shell out $$ to see the new movies... and you do it multiple times.

There's no reason you should be that high considering San Andreas is a game which heavily involves listening to the radio.
Why should YOU be ranked higher than it's own site, or review sites?
Be glad you aren't on page 20 where you belong.
thanks for the best laugh I've had all week!
Damn, you must have a pretty dull life!
he slammed his teste in a door
and yanked it from its cord
poor old mr. uniball
half the man, flux4
hammertime.
Uh... yeah. That was the corniest fuckin thing I've ever seen in my life.
Not really funny at all. Kind of embarassing, in fact.
Problem solved.
*shrug*
:)
At least I'm not the one paying $50 for a DVD... sucker
Heh.. you aren't too smart, are you?
*vroooooooom*
;)
Right over your head
Honestly, I'd rather just continue to download the free content while giving them the finger, grinning as they can't do SHIT to me ;)
See, they're talking about DISTRIBUTING, not downloading.
Right, but you do in fact think they are "not that bad".
Oh really? Hahaha, and how do you know this?

Let's continuously complain and whine about how "bad" this movie will be months before it comes out simply because everyone else is doing it!
Then when we say something REALLY bad about it, we can head to Slashdot and get mod posts!
Like this:
omg, jar jar sux. And Anakin is in love, wtf.
Here's one you didn't see coming: Darth Vader is only in the last 5 minutes.
Quite a twist in the story of life.

I have seen the end, and it is geek indeed.

Hahaha you seem to be quite bothered by this.
Tsk tsk.
Your reply made absolutely no sense, being in response to "You are a fucking tool."
Nice try, though.
I completely agree, and as strange as it is to say it - good work, Microsoft. You are a fucking tool.

Hm, you just answered your own question ;)
With a 1/50 chance of dying, would YOU feel safe riding on that thing? Hah.
