  1. Re:If it's not a blockbuster, you're out of luck on 10 Points About Transgaming's Cedega/WineX · · Score: 0

    And herein is one of Cedega's major problems. Until it supports Simcity 4: Rush Hour and C&C Generals: Zero Hour, I'm gonna stick with Windoze (although stable, secure Linux is tempting).

  2. This is gonna be painful. on MultiTheftAuto Development Continues · · Score: 0

    Maybe they should take out the sniper rifle. I can just see a guy on a rooftop racking up his kill score while picking off anyone and everyone on the frickin' roof. That doesn't seem fair.

  3. If only we had this some time sooner... on Inflatable Spaceship Ready for Test · · Score: 0

    We'd have seven more astronauts and one less grounded space program.

    They wouldn't install some escape system in the shuttle becuase it would make it too heavy, but THIS doesn't sound heavy, and that's why NASA should be putting it on every future space flight.

  4. Oblig Calvin & Hobbes quote on SETI Finds Interesting Signal · · Score: 0

    "The surest sign that there is intelligent life in the universe is that none of it has tried to contact us yet."

  5. How long is it... on Top Banned Books of 2003 · · Score: 0

    ...until 1984 is banned for sexual content?

  6. Re:Avoid oil (almost) entirely on Build Your Own Hybrid-Electric Car? · · Score: 0

    Tweak the engines to run on body fat. The United States has a near-unlimited supply, doesn't it?

  7. Microsoft's test group... on Microsoft Found Guilty of Misleading Advertising · · Score: 0

    ...probably consisted of gamers who had to hire freakin' HITMEN to get Transgaming to port their games.

  8. Re:Safety of Nuclear Power on Interview With Chernobyl Engineer · · Score: 0

    If you don't mind your hometown suddenly going out when the sun goes down or the wind slows, sure, I guess it works out.

  9. Re:Maybe it's time on MPAA Sues DVD Chip Manufacturers · · Score: 0

    Yeah, but whenever there's a boycott, the ***A just alters the data and it comes out as "lost sales due to piracy" and things just get worse.

  10. Get back to me... on Sims 2 Goes Gold · · Score: 0

    ...when they announce the next Simcity game. God, Will Wright is such a sell-out.

  11. Simcity 4 and C&C Generals are on Mac... on Interview - Jim White of the Darwine project · · Score: 0

    ...but their expansions are not, and WINE, WINEX, Cedeha, and their ilk haven't done anything to alleviate the problem. I guess I'm just stuck with this unstable, insecure Windows system...

  12. Re:Halifax Explosion Munitions Ship Explosion on British Town Worried About WWII Ammo Ship Wreck · · Score: 0

    Proof that Canada's pyrotechnics are better than anything you Americans can come up with without cheating. No offense to those who died.

  13. Re:I have a better idea. on Privacy vs. Security: Biometric E-Passports · · Score: 0

    Yeah, but friendly foriegn policies aren't profitable.

  14. Our modern electricity situation... on First Plasma on the Levitated Dipole Experiment · · Score: 0

    Clean, safe, efficient. Pick two.

  15. Re:About what else? Peace. Wahahaahahaha! on Olympians Banned From Blogging · · Score: 0

    Peace through sport? Tell that to the kids who got beat up by the jocks in high school. But then again, the geeks of today have probably built heavily armed exoskeletons to defend themselves.

  16. Call me back when... on A Dicebag of Dungeons and Dragons Documentaries · · Score: 0

    ...they get to the Shadowrun documentaries.

  17. Is it possible... on This Headline Is Not for Sale · · Score: 0

    that the ad sites can be Slashdotted, one at a time?

  18. Re:Won't be long until the army uses robots in com on Humanoid Robot Combat in Japan · · Score: 0

    Wow, the First Law has really gone to shit, hasn't it?

  19. Re:build your own killer robot - it's easy on Humanoid Robot Combat in Japan · · Score: 0

    You remembered to put in a quirky personality, right?

  20. Does the winning robot... on Humanoid Robot Combat in Japan · · Score: 0

    get the losing robot's weapon? And if it does, does it change colors when using it? (Cookies if you get this)

  21. I don't see a point... on No Noise PC Reviewed · · Score: 0

    ...given that computers don't make much noise to begin with. Fridges, freezers, and even muted televisions are louder.

  22. If man were meant to fly... on Human-powered Helicopter Fails to Lift Off · · Score: 0

    He sure as hell wouldn't have rotors.

  23. Can you mod it... on Ready, Aim, HACK! · · Score: 0

    So it doubles as long-range Bluetooth and a rifle? What would really be fun to do is take over hack someone's phone to dial out to the Carribean or something and snipe them. Leave their next of kin with the phone bill.

  24. Yahoo's boards were always crazy on Lawyer Sues Yahoo for Message Board Name-Calling · · Score: 0

    Between rabid right-wingers and looney left-wingers, the boards get UGLY. I actually saw people laughing when 200+ people died in the Paraguay supermarket fire, people advocating sending the Statue of Liberty back to France due to its country of origin, and other horrific things. Yahoo! Message boards are a hotbed for racism, mud-flinging, and things I don't even want to go into.

  25. What's wrong with distributing TV shows? on FCC Says TiVo Owners Can Share Shows · · Score: 0

    TV shows are broadly distributed as it as, so I don't see the harm in spreading them a small bit farther. The worst that can happen is that the shows are sent to someone who wouldn't normally be able to access them (like someone whe *gasp* has only two or three channels), and even then there isn't too much damage.
