  1. Re:I gave you assclowns a chance on JP 360 Stock Moves Slowly · · Score: 0, Troll

    You failed it.

  2. Re:Yes! on MMOFPS Games The Next Big Thing? · · Score: 1

    Maybe having different zones would be a good idea, one for more strategy type situations and others where it is just a fragfest. I enjoy both at different times and would like to be able to stay in the same game when I decide I want to stop with the strategy and start with the fragfest.

  3. Re:Due Diligence on Computer Jobs -- How to Resign Professionally? · · Score: 1

    Which company was this? So that the rest of us can attempt to avoid/abuse their extremely insecure services from this point on.

  4. Re:Sosueme on Music Should Be Heard But Not Understood · · Score: 1

    All moderators must smoke crack before beginning the moderations procedure. Haven't you read the guide?

  5. Re:Do it or not on Music Should Be Heard But Not Understood · · Score: 1, Flamebait

    I highly doubt the RIAA would go after someone like google just because of the size of the company would mean that they would actually be able to fight back.

  6. Re:Er... "Deember"? on Call of Duty 2 Causing Server Unrest · · Score: 1

    Deember is the month before Febtober.

  7. Re:Dupe on Pirates Thwarted by Sonic Weapon · · Score: 1

    This could entirely be the labels, but it is also possible that it is some idiots idea of a joke.

  8. Re:Erm...no...(this title still applies) on XBOX 360=Dreamcast 2.0? · · Score: 1

    About the Dreamcast controller. And yes I had two of them, just like I have two current XBOX controllers. The dreamcast was unergonomical and uncomfortable for long gaming sessions for people that have big hands. I use the s-type XBOX controller now for playing HALO and HALO2 all night long, and the 360 controller looks like it is going to be at least as comfortable as the current XBOX controller.

  9. Re:With or without specific charges? on Police Need 90 Days To Crack Hard Drives · · Score: 1

    Its not "driving while black" that is punishable by three months in prison, it is "driving while black, with a laptop, or iPod in the car" that is punishable by three months in prison.

  10. Re:Illegal not to give the police the key? on Police Need 90 Days To Crack Hard Drives · · Score: 1

    Don't give them ideas!

  11. Re:Very cool! on Underground 'Cold War City' For Sale · · Score: 1

    You want a secret lair with a military installation directly above you?

  12. Re:Same old? on Half-Life 2 - Lost Coast Released On Steam · · Score: 1
    I played it with a GeForce 4200 Ti and had absolutely no problems.

    The one thing that did bother me about the summary is that it gives away almost the whole level. If you didn't play the level last night then you already know what is going to happen.

  13. Re:yes, it does rot your brain, or at least habits on Does Visual Studio Rot the Brain? · · Score: 1

    It seems like your problem is that you gave him a tool and he found something fun to do. Visual Studio can be used to do many things not just make GUI Apps, I haven't made a GUI app with Visual Studio in a long time. The reason I use Visual Studio is to keep all of my files organized with a project and all of my projects organized within a solution, I also use it to compile my code.

  14. Re:Yeah right on Navy Sued for Sonar-Blasting Whales · · Score: 1

    Your post is too long, and has wasted too many electrons. I'm going to bring a suit to slashdot demanding that all posts be shorter, to ummm... save the electrons. Won't someone please think of the children.

    Its not whats in the box that matters, its what you put in the box that matters.

  16. Re:This is a good sign on EA Settles Employee Lawsuit · · Score: 2, Insightful

    $13-$18/hr is what they make if they only work 40hr weeks. When you start working as much overtime as is required in the software industry the hourly wage starts to go down quite a bit.

  17. Re:Testing? QA? on iPod nano Owners In Screen Scratch Trauma · · Score: 1

    The way those machines work is to allow you to take the amount of beans you want, not the stores definition of how much coffee you need.

  18. Re:i won an... on Current-Gen Price Drop and 360 Shortage · · Score: 4, Funny

    well I'll be the first to say. I hate you.

  19. Does the author play games... on Five Ways To Save Video Games · · Score: 1

    This article makes me wonder if the author even plays games. Most of the people I know play games to escape, being the only person around and saving your entire race is a damn good way to escape. Looking at scantily clad women (also a good way to escape). I enjoy being the only person who can save earth, now if there was only sequels to certain games such as HALO, Half-Life and Advent Rising I would probably survive. The author also seems to forget entirely about games such as Rainbow Six, BattleField (I know it has its own problems, but those are seperate from what he was talking about) even Grant Theft Auto.

  20. Re:Only 100 exceptions? on Free Web-Based Exception Reporting · · Score: 2, Insightful

    If your getting anywhere that many exceptions a day it is high time that you invest some money in testing. Whether this testing be having the developers take some training in what testing actually is or having actual testers do the job, either option will save you time and money in the future.

  21. Re:Maddox said it best... on GTA: San Andreas to be Re-Released Next Week · · Score: 1

    Who calls you prude, there was an entier movie made where 2 of the characters were looking for the steamy european sex that their ancestors denied them by moving to America (which they said was a country founded by prudes).

  22. Re:Why would you do it? on Tracking Down a Cell Phone Thief · · Score: 2, Interesting
    They remind me of the heartless things people say about the homeless. It's not a choice, it's an illness. We should treat these people with consideration so they can become productive members of society, not lock them up or beat them down.
    Let me guess, you live in the suburbs? You see homeless people on a irregular basis. I live and work downtown every day I have people ask me for money, then you see them later that day drinking booze or passed out in some sort of puddle. Then there are the aggressive hobos, they ask for money and get violent if you don't give them anything. There are probably cases where they can become productive members of society but most of the time they have either some mental disease or have made decisions whether they realized it or not that has put them in their current situations. Just like the rest of us.

    People may have bought an xbox not wanting halo, but they eventually played it somewhere and bought it.

  25. Re:Dumbest "Package" Ever on Xbox360 Pricing, 2 Models at Launch · · Score: 1

    The hard drive most likely will be used for what it is currently used for on the current xbox, music and saved games (also modding). I have known a few people who didn't see the point in having the hard drive because they could save the games on a memory stick and they don't keep music on their xbox.
