    Does Shake for Linux get delivered by a naked Natalie Portman or come in a solid gold box or something? The OSX version is $499, and a look around the Apple site doesn't mention why the Linux version is for some reason worth an extra $4,500.

    Aah, but that's her devilish plan! First you beat the opponent, then you get the office, *then* you TK, then you're the president!

    And then, of course, you get the women...

    I can see it now: "The Secret Black Negro Muslim Socialist Brigade from Planet Marx vs. The Moose-Shooting Rogue Hottie and the Grizzled War Hero in: DEBATE DEATHMATCH!"

    "What we need... is change!"

    "You're a terrorist!"

    "What?"

    "Don't make me pull out my Moosekiller 2012 BFG!"

    "No, what I'm trying to say is..."

    "Maverick!"

    Obama reels from the blow

    "If that's not Marxism, then I'm not a soccerbull pitmom!"

    Obama staggers, his shields are failing

    "Hockey!!"

    he drops to his knees, his HUD awash in alarms

    "And now I'd like to tell you about..."

    "NOOOOOOOOOO!"

    Oh man, I completely forgot about that! Thanks for refreshing my memory. Gonna bookmark that one for later.

  7. A "Timeline of Adventure Games" is mandatory! on UK Opens National Video Game Archive · · Score: 3, Insightful

    I want to see one hallway that starts with "Adventure," leads on to an Infocom retrospective, then "Mystery House," the Sierra library, and so forth. Adventure gaming is a very distinct subset of the gaming canon that relies on narrative and immersion rather than action and graphics. Leaving it out would be like going to a museum that didn't bother exhibiting paintings because they were just 2D.

  8. Re:Trade secrets != copyrights or patents on Can the US Stop the Illegal Export of Its Technology? · · Score: 2, Funny

    I agree completely, and I understand the difference. I probably fell for a troll and should never have posted either way, but every time I hear "information wants to be free" used to justify something like industrial espionage or theft of state secrets I tend to just black out. I wake up two minutes later, hopefully under the desk and not in front of a completed post.

    Aah, well then. I expect you'll be manning up within minutes to post your name, address, SSN, and full banking details then.

    Yes. Lovely young girl named Anna. Quite the scandal, actually. They buried the story as much as they could, but you can only burst into song so many times before someone's bound to be there with a camera.

    Fascinating. I never thought about it that way. And now I just can't get stop thinking about never-sleeping, never-stopping, Michael Myers-esque sharks that never stop coming towards you.

  13. Wait... on Small Bird Astounds Scientists With 11,200km Flight · · Score: 2, Interesting

    They were "unlikely to sleep?"

    So Joe Scientist thinks there's a remote possibility that the birds napped en route during a "nonstop, over-water route?" WTF? Mind you, I'd pay good money to see it happen, but I really can't figure out how that would work.

    So now we're also sharing girlfriends? It's not like she's not there when I'm done. Of course I'm none too thrilled about sharing an open-sores girlfriend. You keep her. I think this time it's worth paying for.

  17. Re:thieves standing around on TSA Employee Caught With $200K Worth of Stolen Property · · Score: 1

    > Again, if these low-level grunts are capable of sneaking that much stolen stuff OUT of the airport without meeting security blocks, what the hell can they bring INTO the airport without inspection?

    Repeated for emphasis. A big guy could get a ridulous number of laptops, GameBoys, iPods and whatnot out of the airport just by stuffing them into a coat, but a frigging $49,000 video camera? Do you know how much camera and gear that buys? This sumbitch probably rolled a road case out of a secure area that was big enough to hold three of Aerosmith's guitars, stuffed it in his van, and rolled right out the gate without a single question. This such a revolting abuse of the public trust that they should just drop his thieving ass (and his girlfriend, who was obviously in on it) down a well.

  18. Audio samples from the Qur'an? on LittleBigPlanet Delayed Due To Qur'an-Sampling Audio · · Score: 4, Funny

    Would that be the original release or the digitally remastered 5.1 version from just a couple of years ago? Personally, I prefer the vinyl version because digital just can't carry the warmth of Allah's vocals and that sweet guitar.

  19. Almost completely off-topic. on 99.8% of Gamers Don't Care About DRM, Says EA · · Score: 4, Funny

    My DVD drive hasn't worked in a week and half, despite repeated tweaks and reinstalls. While mucking around on my drive last night, I found a directory called SecurROM. No frigging idea where it came from. I don't know if this is just a coincidence or what, but if I delete that directory and my drive suddenly starts working again then I'm going to do two things. First, I'm going to torrent a copy of Spore. Second, I'm going to track down an EA executive and punch him in the cock just as hard as I can.
