  1. Re:I'd like my money back. on Firefox New York Times Ad, Soon · · Score: 1

    And if that isn't enough for you, even amongst 2500 peeps, you really think you'll be any more recognisable than amongst 10000?

    Um, yes... he'd be exactly 4 times more recognizable.

  2. Re:you serious? on Game Retailers to Have a Good Holiday Season · · Score: 2, Insightful

    I believe the parent was referring to Hanukkah as a rip-off holiday because it has become a reason to buy and give gifts for Jews, since they didn't want to celebrate Christmas.

    If he wasn't referring to their similarity in rampant consumerism, he's just a dumbass.

  3. Re:Query on Game Retailers to Have a Good Holiday Season · · Score: 2, Insightful

    Actually, Christ himself asked his followers to celebrate his death, not his life.

    Thusly, Christmas shouldn't even be religiously observed. Easter is the ultimate holiday in Christianity.

  4. Re:What would my children say??? on Half of U.S. I.T. Operations Jobs to Vanish · · Score: 1

    Shinola?

  5. Re:I doesn't matter in 99% of the cases. on How Important is a Well-Known CS Degree? · · Score: 1

    I would hope that a college student is proficient enough in English not to have to proofread or edit casual communication.

    I never do, and I make almost no errors whatsoever.

  6. Re:The important question on ATI Unveils the X850 Series · · Score: 1

    Yes.

    As someone who worked QA on EQ2, I can promise you that nothing is going to run that piece of shit engine nicely for years to come.

  7. Re:I doesn't matter in 99% of the cases. on How Important is a Well-Known CS Degree? · · Score: 1

    If that's true, I give you a pass. Heheh.

  8. Re:I doesn't matter in 99% of the cases. on How Important is a Well-Known CS Degree? · · Score: 1

    "I whole heartly agree with you."

    This is a college student? Why does nobody know how to read and write English anymore?

  9. Re:On the contrary on China Blocking Access to Google News Site · · Score: 1

    Mod this up... it isn't off-topic any more than the parent, and it contains far wiser advice.

  10. Re:Obligatory webcomic reference on Katamari Damacy Sequel Announced · · Score: 1

    Super Monkey Ball is great, but it doesn't have some fruit saying things about his "royal rainbow" in broken Engish...

  11. Re:Obligatory webcomic reference on Katamari Damacy Sequel Announced · · Score: 1

    Every post of yours in this thread consists of you putting down other peoples' tastes in favor of your own. Get a clue, man.

    Katamari Damacy is an awesome game. I enjoy it more than Super Monkey Ball or even the venerated classic, Marble Madness. You're just another clueless Slashdot critic.

  12. Where hasn't this been asked? on Half-Life 2 Upgrade Analysis · · Score: 1

    Seriously, man... why is this on Slashdot now? People have been discussing how to upgrade on message boards all over the net since before this damn game was even released. Why must the Slashdot games section look like planethalflife, with all these ridiculous HL2 "stories?"

  13. Re:Damn it on Scientists Give Human Organs to Lamb · · Score: 1

    Rock the Traveling Wilburys, man! Yeah! I'd mod you up were I in possession of points.

  14. HL2 better get a better review... on Source SDK Released Soon, HL2 High in Gamerankings · · Score: -1, Troll

    Halo 2 sucks my balls. Weakest. Multiplayer. Evar.

  15. Re:MODCHIP? Theres no games worth pirating! :) on First Mod Chip For GameCube · · Score: 1

    Feh.

    Paper Mario owns your soul.

  16. Re:A few more reasons, and a suggestion on Half-Life 2 Causes Nausea, Looks Good in Doom Engine · · Score: 1

    I play some games at 1600x1200, which my monitor can only do 60 Hz at. I do not get headaches or other issues from it.

    Just remember that it varies from person to person.

  17. Re:um... on Anarchy Brings Low Telecom Prices In Somalia · · Score: 1

    I recommend this course of action, yes.

  18. Re:lots of other victimless crimes to worry about. on Anti-P2P Law Looms over the Horizon · · Score: 1

    Stupidity only gets you elected if your opponents are trying to portray you as an idiot with such zeal that they do themselves harm.

  19. Re:No thanks... on Enhanced Instant Messaging with IMSmarter · · Score: 1

    Hmm, do you think that perhaps the reason you have 1000 spam messages at your Gmail account might have something to do with the fact that you post it all over Slashdot? I mean, come on, your attempt at criticizing Gmail is just pathetic.

  20. Re:Why Berkeley? on Berkeley Researchers Analyze Florida Voting Patterns · · Score: 2, Insightful

    This attitude is why the slightly more liberal John Kerry lost.

    Good job, fucking it up for the rest of us, you arrogant prick.

    People in San Francisco already sport those fashionable stickers.

  22. Interested in real alt-country? on Wilco on P2P, Digital Music and the Internet · · Score: 2, Insightful

    If you actually want to broaden your musical horizons, try to find some Slim Cessna's Auto Club or any of Jay Munly's solo work.

    Now that shit's original.

    This man is sick, and you're here misspelling "disease"???

    You fool!

    I know you probably do not use Firefox for a good reason, but I must still ask you why you don't use Firefox w/ the bugmenot extension...

    I highly doubt that whoever modded the parent as flamebait has ever tried to do any kind of audio work in Linux...
