  1. The real lesson: on Feedback On Simcity Gets User Banned From EA Forums · · Score: 1

    If you want to play offline, pirate the game.

    Or pirate the game after purchasing it, freeing yourself from ridiculous DRM while maintaining moral superiority.

  2. Re:BFG means.... on DOOM 3 BFG Edition On Github, Timed For Oculus Rift · · Score: 2

    Holy crap, if you're younger than 20 you just made me feel really old.

  3. Oblig on Huge Diamond Deposits Revealed In Russia · · Score: 1

    There's diamonds in them thar hills!

  4. EA has been struggling on Electronic Arts Up For Sale? · · Score: 1

    by putting out the same shitty content for 60$+DLC over and over and reducing the player base as they escape to social gaming to find what they want.

    Is still upset about Mass Effect 3.

  5. I'm donating on The Oatmeal Begins a Fundraiser for a Nikola Tesla Museum · · Score: 1

    I'm giving $10, not only because I believe in the validity of the project, but because off the goddamn name.

  6. Re:Deep Space on Romney Taps Wisconsin Congressman Paul Ryan As Running Mate · · Score: 1

    Every part of the bible referring to heaven or heavenly beings is referring to extraterrestrials.

  7. Re:Idiomatics on Meat the Food of the Future · · Score: 1

    Hungry? Why wait. Stickbugs.

  8. Last I checked, the LOTR movies were amazing... on Peter Jackson Announces Third Hobbit Movie · · Score: 1

    So stop yer bitchin.

  9. FUCK MY LIFE on Florida Accused of Concealing Worst Tuberculosis Outbreak In 20 Years · · Score: 2

    I'm in Miami and I've had a cough for 2 weeks. I have a doctor's appointment on Thursday. This is NOT what I needed to read.

  10. If it's anything like Dead Island on Activision Turning The Walking Dead Into a First-Person Shooter · · Score: 1

    I will enjoy it. The only thing I didn't like about that game was the complete lack of story.

  11. Re:Futurama fans already know... on Dark Matter Filament Finally Found · · Score: -1, Offtopic

    Really? Downmodded? Get a sense of humor.

  12. Futurama fans already know... on Dark Matter Filament Finally Found · · Score: 5, Funny

    Futurama fans already know that that filament is a result of Nibblonian diarrhea being ejected into space.

  13. Dammit!!!! on Google Killing Off Mini, Video, and iGoogle · · Score: 5, Interesting

    I use iGoogle as my landing page. I have my email, slashdot, new york times, BBC, the weather, a sunlight map, wikipedia, and a pet hamster all on the same page. Where else am I going to get all that the second I open firefox?

  14. Please, for the love of science... on CERN Announcing New LHC Results July 4th · · Score: 1

    Stop calling it the God Particle. That's not what the search is for and it riles up the fundies and happily-ignorants.

  15. Re:A foul subject. on Making Saltwater Drinkable With Graphene · · Score: 5, Insightful

    Keep in mind that this process is regarding desalinization, not water purification. I'm sure if graphene solves the problems of desalinization, it will work wonders with purification, but there are adequate water purification systems located in most places, but water desalinization is a massively expensive procedure in comparison.

    A robust and cost effective desalinization system is literally one of the biggest necessities we're going to need in the next century, as average rainfall levels continue to fall all over the U.S.

    I know it may be impractical but I see giant desalinization inlets from the ocean leading to a network of irrigation and river systems for the West coast.

  16. Seriously, fuck Texas.

  17. Re:First dissent on Supreme Court: Affordable Care Act Is Constitutional · · Score: 1

    Incorrect. Most healthcare in Europe is publicly funded. The Individual mandate is a requirement for everyone in America to own health care insurance the way you own car insurance.

  18. Re:Horrible use of laws on Quiet Victories Won In the Loudness Wars · · Score: 4, Insightful

    If you had read the article or the title, or summary, you'd have read that the article is about the volume of commercials, not the content or material being sold.

    If you want to turn this into a free speech issue, you have the right to speak about whatever you want, but you don't have the right to grab someone by the ear and then scream into it.

  19. Re:Horrible use of laws on Quiet Victories Won In the Loudness Wars · · Score: 1

    I have a right to speech. I do not have the right to scream in your ear at the top of my lungs in order to get my spittle on your face and make sure I'm the only one you can listen to.

    Hearing damage has a cost, increased stress levels has a cost, annoyance has a cost.

    Telemarketers have free speech too, you know. I don't hear you complaining about us passing laws saying that they can't call us. Cause they're fucking annoying.

  20. ROUS's on Fundamentalist Schools Using "Nessie" To Disprove Evolution · · Score: 1

    Rodents of unusual size? I don't think they exist.

  21. Re:That pay is just for the first few months on Apple Store Employees Soak Up the Atmosphere, But Not Much Cash · · Score: 0

    Anonymous coward is anonymous.

  22. Re:That pay is just for the first few months on Apple Store Employees Soak Up the Atmosphere, But Not Much Cash · · Score: 5, Insightful

    Your comment is based on your lack of understanding about how badly the dollar has devalued. $12/hour isn't a living wage in a lot of places.

  23. Re:Tracking employees is just wrong on Google Touts Worker Tracking As Own CEO Goes MIA · · Score: 1

    Phones don't need to be on to have the tracking features functional. Except for completely discharging your device, the only way to prevent signals from getting to or leaving your device would be to dump it in a signal blocking bag every time you're off the clock.

  24. Hmm, pirating real Austrians.... on China Pirates Austrian Village · · Score: 2

    ...going to be more difficult. The Chinese have two alternatives.

    1. They can abduct thousands of people to populate their village or more likely

    2. They're going to user their citizens as knock off Chinese imitations of Austrians. In which case, I am booking a flight to China to see this place immediately.

  25. Joy on SSD Prices Down 46% Since 2011 · · Score: 1

    I was wondering how long it would take, but I guess the ubiquitous nature of hard drives and the fact that normal users don't understand what the big deal about SSDs is about, manufacturers are having to fight the take-it-or-leave it nature of SSDs.

    I for one, won't put one in my laptop until I see a 500 gig drive for at most $300. My hard drive works fine right now. I'd love to have the power-efficiency, accident-proof, and high speed features in my laptop but I'm not going to down over $200 for 200 gigabytes. The larger size of my hard drive and low price balances that out quite nicely.
