  1. Windows doesn't handle hatred to well.. on Lie Detector Glasses Coming Soon · · Score: 0

    User: "I need to reboot you to fix something.." Bill: "I'm sorry Dave, I can't let you do that.."

  2. Moderation Nazis on Sid Meier Inducted Into Computer Hall Of Fame · · Score: -1, Offtopic
    I have just realised just how much moderation happens on games./. Compared to the main site almost all the messages are moderated, and unusually strongly as well, pity there isn't a finer granularity on the filters.

    p.s. I am now revelling in the fact that my first moderation on /. in 6 or so years of reading is Flamebait. Bring on the Evil Karma Whore revolution.

  3. Pirates! ask Firaxis to make a linux port on Sid Meier Inducted Into Computer Hall Of Fame · · Score: 0, Flamebait

    Heya guys, To anyone who loves Sid's games and prefers linux, go to Firaxis' site and send a comment asking for a linux port. I still have a copy of SMAC for linux and play it regularly. I would love to see another Sid game for linux.

  4. People wont pay for what they can d/l for free?!? on Apple Announces 25 Million Song Downloads · · Score: 1

    I think this shows the moral corruptability of the likes of the average music industry exec. Most people would prefer to be on the right side of the law given the chance and the law being reasonable, ie not too costly. Music exec's however assume that this is not true because they think that everyone else is like them, ie morally corrupt enough to rob people blind.

  5. What about KDE? on Novell Announces Agreement to Acquire SUSE · · Score: 1

    Since the KDE camp has always been strongest at SuSE, and with the now merger of Novell/SuSE/Ximian, are the KDE guys going to be left out in the cold?

  6. HTML != XHTML, and other easy end runs.. on Microsoft Patents Your Local Weather Report · · Score: 1

    This is easy to end run. HTML != XHTML, heck you could even get the server to send RDF/XML and use a client based XSLT library to convert it into HTML and/or XHTML. no probs..
