  1. Re:Define qualified on IT Worker Shortages Everywhere · · Score: 5, Insightful

    Considering some of the wildly inflated salary demands I've heard from people in relation to their actual deomonstrated ability, I'd say adjustments need to be made on both sides.

  2. Re:Incubus? on Guitar Hero Is Big Hit With Bands · · Score: 1

    Since you mentioned it, I'd hardly bother classifying. It's a waste of time. Like what you like and leave the genres to the dorks who get hard over how obscure they can be.

  3. Re:I Don't Understand on Guitar Hero Is Big Hit With Bands · · Score: 1

    I frequently end up gaining on people with cars which are capable of handling vastly better than mine simply because I don't have to slow down [as much] for a corner because I know what I'm doing.

    It may just be possible that they aren't treating the street like a road race.

    Only a guess on my part, however.

  4. Re:Right/wrong is besides the point on Global Warming Debunked? · · Score: 3, Funny

    Obviously. Anything nuclear is evil. That's why I've proposed legislation to ban anything with a nucleus to end this threat to the American way of life once and for all.

  5. It's the rule of the lowest common denominator on Should Online Stores Be Subject To ADA? · · Score: 1

    Harrison Bergeron was prophecy

  6. Re:How to market the PS3 on Sony's Karakker On Turning Around PS3 Buzz · · Score: 1

    I agree. I get games to look at them. Sony, moreso than any other company, excels at producing pretty looking schlock that I don't need to play, and wouldn't want to if I did.

    It's graphics or nothing for me!

  7. Re:Who's the troll? on Melting Arctic Ice Has Consequences · · Score: 1

    That was a very clean way of adding a point that wasn't made in an attempt to bolster your own position and discredit your opposition. You should work on the staff of a congressman. Pick one, they all enjoy using such a skill.

  8. Re:Plan ahead on Nuclear Tech Race Is On In Middle East · · Score: 1

    Blaming only the US makes sense so long as you absolve everyone else in the world. It's not logical in any way, and your opinion has no influence on reality, but if it makes you feel better, go right ahead. You'll die just the same, and it will make no difference.

  9. Re:Not surprised on PC Makers May Be Left On the Shelves · · Score: 1

    You probably ought to be able to expect a post on Slashdot won't be filled with inane technobabble. If I wanted that, I'd go watch "The Net" and cheer as Sandra Bullock beats the bad guys with her super skills.

  10. Re:Not so nice, but ... on Saddam Hussein Sentenced to Death · · Score: 1

    I really hope that's your honest opinion. It restores my faith in moronity.

  11. Re:Sympathy for the Devil on Saddam Hussein Sentenced to Death · · Score: 1

    Will killing him bring back the 148 dead Shiites?

    We won't know for sure until we've tried.

    Ask a stupid question, get a stupid answer...

  12. Re:Did we ever really code from scratch? on No More Coding From Scratch? · · Score: 1

    Wow, you thieves sure get defensive when you're caught.

  13. Re:current trends on Oceans Empty By 2048? · · Score: 1

    Apparently, you sciency guys forgot the fact that autumn is over in 6 more weeks. Us non-sciency guys call that "reading the calendar" :)

  14. Re:don't they deserve it? on FTC Fines Zango $3 Million · · Score: 1

    People shouldn't trust free things in the regular world. Why would it magically be safer on the internet?

    Taking something that isn't yours is wrong in the regular world, but if you believe the posts on Slashdot, doing it on the Internet is moral and just. Apparently there is some sort of magic dichotomy in effect.

  15. Re:Remember remember on UK Has Become a "Surveillance Society" · · Score: 1

    Get the comic book, it's even cooler than the movie.

    I've had toenail clippings that were even cooler than that movie.

  16. Hahah final fantasy on Games That Advanced the Art of Storytelling · · Score: 1

    I wanted to enjoy the story in Final Fantasy anything, but the realization that the "storytelling" was about as competent as "Days of our Lives" made me stop before I turned stupid.

  17. Re:My real question is on Tim Berners-Lee Announces Web Science Initiative · · Score: 1

    Desensitized to everything?
    What became of subtlety?

  18. Re:Bullshit Patents on Automatic Image Tagging · · Score: 1

    If it's so obvious, how did they do it?

  19. Re:Monopoly leverage, indeed on IE7 Released As High-Priority Update · · Score: 1

    But they just email each other in a never-ending circle of bad hygiene. Out here in the world, we need to talk to people outside of a secluded few in order to get real things done.

  20. Re:It's Foolish to Say... on Intel Core 2 Extreme QX6700 Reviews · · Score: 1

    You should be more upset with the pace of hardware changes. It's not simply that software requires more as time goes on, but that fact that the rate of change in hardware is increasing as well. Welcome to Moore's law.

  21. Re:Not really anything new on Bogus Experts Fight Your Right To Broadband · · Score: 1

    Politics could be summed up that way, if you ignore the other 99% in order to sound pithy.

  22. Re:slashdotted MAC layer 2 on Microsoft Banning 360 Firmware Modders? · · Score: 1

    Your Computer Is Broadcasting Your IP Address!!!

  23. Re:Not only that... on Trial For The Male Pill Shows No Side-effects · · Score: 1

    In general, when someone starts boasting about their sexual exploits on the internet, the last time they were near a vagina was during their birth.

  24. Re:I dunno on Hiring (Superstar) Programmers · · Score: 1

    Apparently you don't like choices in your entertainment.

  25. Re:Because they chose that license on When Stallman is Attacked · · Score: 1

    But it's the GPL hippies who smell. We propietary coders shower regularly because we work in buildings with other people.
