  1. who? on Curt Schilling's 38 Studios Struggling Financially · · Score: 1, Offtopic

    Why do we care about this?

  2. Re:Made a nice profit on Facebook IPO Stumbles Out of the Gate · · Score: 1

    Indeed. My first trade ever (Yay), I just bought a single share for about $40.

    If it sinks, who cares? But if (for some reason) it explodes, I'll get something out of it.

  3. Re:What an elitist on Geeks In the Public Forum? · · Score: 1

    I like this idea.

    Nothing can be done without consensus between the representatives and constituents, and the executive branch retains it's existing veto power.

    That missing direct-power from the constituents is really being felt these days.

  4. Re:What an elitist on Geeks In the Public Forum? · · Score: 1

    I haven't gotten to Galactic Empire yet, but I've read the first three "Elija Baley" books. What corrupt societies? Sure, they are various societies taken to extremes, but I wouldn't call any of them corrupt. (sure, a few of the members, but you will never get away from that)

  5. Re:HAHA !! DSL SUXORS !! on Paul Vixie: 100,000 DSL Modems May Lose Their DNS On July 9 · · Score: 1

    Sounds like someone needs to buck up the escalation chain until someone who knows anything gets on the phone.

    That's a definite problem. Network admins hate those kinds of shenanigans, provided they know about them. That last part is the hard part - how to get it to their attention.

  6. Re:Except it didn't. on The Pirate Bay Returns, Anonymous Hater Takes Credit For DDoS · · Score: 1

    Oh, a neurosurgeon eh? Well, I'm a rocket scientist. Oh wait, no... I'm a world renowned entomologist. Wait, no...

    See, I can claim to be anyone.

  7. Re:Works for the feds? on The Pirate Bay Returns, Anonymous Hater Takes Credit For DDoS · · Score: 1

    Nothing wrong with that either, only with what the given "issue" might be. Eg, I'd have no compunctions of helping to nail a child-porn producer.

  8. Re:anonymous is a bunch of childish kids.... on The Pirate Bay Suffering Global Outage From Massive DDoS Attack · · Score: 1

    No, that would be a DDoH(head) attack.

  9. Re:zzzzzzzzz on The Pirate Bay Suffering Global Outage From Massive DDoS Attack · · Score: 1

    Normally one wouldn't want to toss the baby out with the bath water.

    However, this "baby" is, at this point, a tazmanian devil wrestling with an angry badger.

    Toss away, toss away.

  10. Re:anonymous is a bunch of childish kids.... on The Pirate Bay Suffering Global Outage From Massive DDoS Attack · · Score: 2

    Shush! We don't like logic and truth around these parts!

  11. Re:anonymous is a bunch of childish kids.... on The Pirate Bay Suffering Global Outage From Massive DDoS Attack · · Score: 1

    So, we have figured out who DDOSes the DDOSers?

  12. wiki golf? on Kevin Bacon Meets Wikipedia With New Pathfinding Program · · Score: -1, Flamebait

    What a stupid idea.

  13. Re:... that cost at least $50,000 ? on Octave and Gnuplot Coming To Android · · Score: 1

    Not big money? That's more than most of us make in a year, before taxes.

  14. Re:How's the gameplay though? on Diablo III Released · · Score: 1

    Indeed. I've given it a couple hours today. Aside from server issues (irritating, but whatever...) I have no complaints and only praise.

  15. Re:Meh blizzard on Diablo III Released · · Score: 1

    lol I can't even quote you correctly. Doh!

    You said "Tristan" - as in the person's name. It's Tristram.

  16. Re:Meh blizzard on Diablo III Released · · Score: 1

    Tristran? Apparently you didn't play the originals very much either.

  17. Re:Diablo 3 for free on Diablo III Released · · Score: 1

    +1 Hilarious. Bonus points, they still had to pay the transaction fee for the decline.

  18. Re:Stop whining on Diablo III Released · · Score: 2

    Then move, or start complaining to the people that actually matter.

    It's not like any of us can fix it for you.

  19. Re:Diablo III servers down for maintenance... on Diablo III Released · · Score: 1

    When I worked at a supposedly SAS-70 facility, I loved to joke around that our "5 9s" was actually 9.9999%. My boss was not amused (but the rest of us were, so oh well)

  20. Re:Diablo III servers down for maintenance... on Diablo III Released · · Score: 1

    When people say "we have 5 9's!!!one!eleven" I like to think to myself "Oh, cool! 9.9999% uptime!"

  21. Re:How's the gameplay though? on Diablo III Released · · Score: 1

    Saying the graphics are nothing special these days means a vast improvement from before.

    When's the last time you ran Diablo or Diablo II? Try it, and see...

  22. Re:How's the gameplay though? on Diablo III Released · · Score: 1

    Excellent. I was hoping for this.

    How's the visual aesthetic? Did they WOW-bunny it? Or does it still look hellish?

  23. Re:Whats the fun? on Diablo III Released · · Score: 1

    If it has to be explained to you then it's not going to be fun for you.

    People enjoy different things. Don't worry about it and move on.

  24. Re:Hate to put a damper on the celebration on Diablo III Released · · Score: 3, Interesting

    Both will get my money and time, and neither will get my affection.

    Affection is for people, not companies.

  25. Re:NewFail on Diablo III Released · · Score: 1

    Hopefully they are taking some hardware from WoW.
