  1. Re:Yay choice on Ubuntu Unity: The Great Divider · · Score: 1

    Where XFCE is the obvious answer?

  2. Re:Then don't link to movies. Period. on Yahoo! Liable In Italy For Searchable Content · · Score: 2

    I think you're being two serious!

  3. Re:I don't use Firefox for performance reasons... on Firefox 4 RC Vs. IE9 RC: the First Duel · · Score: 1

    Pretty much the same. I tried alternatives with Chrome but it's not the same at all and a browser without vimperator/pentadactyl is not pleasant to use anymore.

  4. Re:Depends on Disarm Internet Trolls, Gently · · Score: 1

    Though default on a C64 was all caps?

  5. Re:Facebook discovers HTTPS on Facebook Launches Social Login and HTTPS · · Score: 1

    Was kind of thinking the same. So many friends with half fake or fully fake names. How accurate do you have to be? :D

    Didn't read the article of course. Just match pictures to a list of names?

  6. Re:80% due to human error? on Road Train Completes First Trials In Sweden · · Score: 1

    I'm more into cars "standing still" - just sliding. (I guess sliding is not standing still so)

  7. Re:Dead on. on Is Mark Zuckerberg the Next Steve Case? · · Score: 1

    1 person likes this post.

    Ah how I really hate all people on Facebook that really thinks everything they do is interesting. :)
    Thank Facebook for letting me hide some peoples status messages.

  8. Re:Complainers to the back of the line on Is Mark Zuckerberg the Next Steve Case? · · Score: 1

    And I'll tell you LAST what you did wrong. Hah!

  9. Re:Damned shame on Split Screen Co-op Is Dying · · Score: 2

    If I get this right. Have I ever seen ANY fighting game with split screen? Youtubed Marvel vs Capcom 3 for some in game footage too - and no split screen? Split screen - from the trustworthy Wikipedia: "In its most easily-understood form, a split screen for a two-player video game is an audiovisual output device (usually a standard television for video game consoles) where the display has been divided into two equally-sized areas so that the players can explore different areas simultaneously without being close to each other." So same screen multiplayer games probably aren't going anywhere.

  10. Re:Pub, social, dollars on Single-Player Game Model 'Finished,' Says EA Exec · · Score: 1

    Only problem being a short game with a story no one really cared to develop is that I'd buy my next game from someone else who cared for the customer. So I hope they'd actually care at least somewhat for how long I play the game and how I feel about it. :)

  11. Re:that's not how copyright law works on Witcher 2 Torrents Could Net You a Fine · · Score: 1

    I have to admit I feel the same way. It's well in their right to do so but it seems so hostile to me. Psychologically it just feels wrong. I've been to stores where you see a guard. So far so good. But if he'd tell me he'll follow me around to smack down on every wrong doing he can find. I'd leave quite fast, even if I'd never steal anything anyway.

  12. Re:Achievement System on Blizzard Suing Creators of StarCraft II Hacks · · Score: 1

    Which by itself is one reason I don't get this game. :)

  13. Re:Fact check on Porn Virus Blackmails Victims Over "Copyright Violation" · · Score: 2, Funny

    I was actually wondering about this. Is it 200 millipeople or 200 meters of people?

  14. Re:THIS COMMENT IS A TROLL. PLEASE MOD AS SUCH. on Solaris 10 Installation and Desktop Walkthrough · · Score: 1

    I'd say it is just off topic. We are not discussing about "trolling slashdot" or anything like that.

  15. Re:2X2 Chess? on Computer Cracks 5x5 Go · · Score: 1

    As can be read here some languages actually do use $ as prefix for hexadecimal.

    Then there are languages who use single = for comparison too. So if you are friendly enough it might make sense. :)

  16. Re:hypocritical of stallman? on Hackers, Slackers, and Shackles · · Score: 1

    And notes are just instructions of how to play the music. There aren't much difference there from what I see.

    But I won't say all code should have to be free either.

  17. Re:Take a lesson on Valve Takes the Offensive on Warez Users? · · Score: 1

    Many released serials were original serials so they sure did work. Most get banned because they are used by cheaters. Think some have got lucky with keygens too from time to time, but I wouldn't count on it.

  18. Re:Take a lesson on Valve Takes the Offensive on Warez Users? · · Score: 1

    Aren't there cracked online servers out there? Aren't there loads of serials floating around too?

  19. Re:Dogbert Strategy on How Would You Handle a $1,000,000 Coding Error? · · Score: 0, Offtopic
    How can this really be off topic?

    A quote about losing money in a discussion about lost money? Moderators seem to behave strange sometimes. Please help the guy. :)

    (Wonder how offtopic I am now.. yihaa)

  20. Re:Ok, thats great on How To Make Friends on the Telephone · · Score: 1
    Not if you want to contact me when I'm home. Ringing the door bell is the least likely way to get to me.

    I'd say IM is the most likely way and phone might work unless your number shows up as secret. We don't even check our dorr unless you call us first to tell us you'll come to visit us. :)

  21. Re:Lots of users == good. on Solaris' Dtrace in Detail · · Score: 1

    Yeah.. stop confusing that.. That sentence says it can be downloaded at no cost and not that it's free to use any way you want.

  22. Re:Design and build a project of your own on Recent Grads and Experience Beyond the Desktop? · · Score: 1

    That's one idea. But does it actually work all that well?

  23. /. punishment? on Beastie Boys' New Album Silently Installs DRM Code · · Score: 0, Redundant

    I guess the /. effect on their site is a quite big punishment? I wanted to read about angry listeners but hungry /. users got them first!

  24. Re:You're missing the point. on Searching for the Best Scripting Language · · Score: 1

    A semicolons marks the end of a statement, not the end of a line.

  25. Re:Theme Song on UPN Renews 'Star Trek: Enterprise' · · Score: 1

    I certainly like the song but I agree the guitars changed it in a way I didn't like. Mainly I think the guitars start too early. Just my thought.
