  1. Re:Prosecute the parents on 6-Year-Old Says Grand Theft Auto Taught Him To Drive · · Score: 1

    I find it interesting that this story doesn't mention the fact that he only took the car after he missed the bus. As the article in swedish press did.

    I also find it interesting that it is assumed that the parents actually had the game and not a friends older brother who finds it funny to see a six year old pick up hookers. Like you didn't have a friend at whose house you were allowed to do a lot more than you were at home.

    The kid probably took the car keys because he didn't want to bother mom, who was sleeping, and quite possibly working nights.

    It's like people around here was never young.

  2. Re:Um, duh? on Examining the Beginnings of the RTS Genre · · Score: 1

    Very true.

    Personaly I think Company of heroes took RTS to the next level with squads and cover. That said, t still needs some more balancing, but overall it's pretty good.

  3. Re:Geez...just like 47th street in Brooklyn on Warner Music Pushing Music Tax For Universities · · Score: 1

    Pay up or we fuck you up. Sounds just like Hells Angels and Bandidos. Wonderful.

  4. Re:HOT sexy women on EA Recommends Hilarious Work-Around For RA3 CD-Key · · Score: 5, Funny

    Well, their job is all about service mind.

  5. Re:Erm on Bandwidth Use In MMOs · · Score: 3, Funny

    Imagine the irony if this had been a main story and the article got slashdotted.

  6. Re:JOIN THE CLUB! on Blizzard Answers Your Questions, From Blizzcon · · Score: 1

    Out of all the things that happened to warlocks you complain about CoR and fear?

    While leveling and doing 5mans you are likely to be affliction anyway and have the 2 points in improved fear that reduces movement speed by 30% add to that curse of exhaustion and you basicly have a root. CoR juggling the fear is no longer needed.

    Fear is one of the things that actually got more useful.

    You may want to focus more on the deep heavy talent trees, lack of synergy between talents, heavy reliance on certain spells being up and complete lack of effective defensive abilities.

  7. Re:My friends on Can Static Electricity Generate Votes? · · Score: 1

    Sadly not, with the current state of affairs.

  8. Re:Finances & Conflict on Blizzard Awarded $6M Damages From MMOGlider · · Score: 1

    Blizzard is suing the maker and seller of the drugs.

    They just ban the cheating athlete.

    I'm sure there is a bad car analogy in there somwhere.

  9. Re:Tuecrypt on Community Choice Award "Most Likely to be Shut Down By Govt" · · Score: 1

    I see an encrypted message.

  10. Re:Arrogance. on Previously Uncontacted Amazon Tribe Photographed · · Score: 1

    I hear Snoop is making an expedition to learn about their medicines!

  11. Re:Toilets? on Prototype EU Airplane Spy Cams Watch For Facecrime · · Score: 1

    Hopefully they introduce a rule that sweating and acting nervous around the toilets gives you VIP access. To everyone elses relief.

  12. So, a couple of forum trolls... on Fat People Cause Global Warming, Higher Food Prices · · Score: 2

    ... made a troll scientific report and people actually dignify it by responding as if it would deserve the publicity.

    "How to spot and deal a troll" should be a first grade class.

  13. Re:I'm not positive about my translation on Fermilab Calls For Code Crackers · · Score: 4, Funny

    Really?
    I got an "ASCII" version of goatse :-/

  14. Re:Mess with them on Securing Your Notebook Against US Customs · · Score: 1

    "Yeah, it's a work in progress, I'm afraid it wount be finished until I have bred a cat cute enough to cause heart attacks at first sight."

  15. Re:This is why you make sure... on Securing Your Notebook Against US Customs · · Score: 1

    So that's why they sell so much porn at airports, well danish airports.

  16. Contact the manufacturer on Hobbyist Renewable Energy? · · Score: 1

    Inform them of your situation.

    Perhaps they have a smaller unit that just isn't in stock at the store and tell you where they can be found or perhaps they know a competitor that has what you need.

  17. Re:Way to overreact. on Pidgin Controversy Triggers Fork · · Score: 1

    Way to drum up publicity for something that has has 1600 downloads so far btw.

  18. Way to overreact. on Pidgin Controversy Triggers Fork · · Score: 1

    Was it really necessary to create a whole new fork?

    Just make a patch called Deannoyify_pidgin that makes adds the option to use the feature or not.

    On the other hand, if this is just one of many cases where developers are ignoring the users I do understand the need for a fork.

  19. Re:So.. on The Reality Distortion Field Is Real · · Score: 5, Funny

    Personaly I just stop breathing until I get blue in the face.

  20. Re:Three reasons on An Essay On Subscription Television · · Score: 1

    The main problem with pay per view is that you have to be dead sure you want to watch something before you watch it. You can't channel surf, you can't browse, you can't tune into the middle of a show to see if it's any good. You're pretty much restricted to watching shows you really like. So, why not make the pilot or the first episode of the season free to hook people on shows.
  21. Pay per view on An Essay On Subscription Television · · Score: 1

    Isn't this basicly pay per view, just for television series instead of movies and sports events?

    Also, as another poster mentioned previously, not having to watch commercials is a BIG thing for me.

  22. Re:Established fixture? on Elebits and Warioware - Bad Wii and Good Wii · · Score: 1

    I just went into the store, said I would like to preorder a Wii, paid my deposit and had the store call me when they got one.

    One week later they called and said I had to come pick it up within 48 hours or wait until the next shipment.

  23. Re:It reminds me... on GPS Devices Lead Authorities to Thieves' Home · · Score: 1

    Oh they are RIAA board members ;)

  24. Re:At $500,000... How long to pay back the cost? on Solar Power Eliminates Utility Bills in U.S. Home · · Score: 1

    Batteries...

    Probably not the best idea, because of failure rates and the fact that they are meant to be used so they age faster when they are just standing around which they are likely to do in the summer. At least lead-acid, and I think that's the only economical alternative.

    A better solution is probably to have a hydrogen system like this guy. The best part is that you can sell the hydrogen if you produce more than you need, or at least in sweden you can sell the electricity.

  25. Re:Wait on Gamers Don't Need Vista or DX 10 Says Carmack · · Score: 1

    Those game companies develop console games.
