    exactly.

  2. how old is WoW? on Blizzard Bans 100,000 Cheaters In Massive "World of Warcraft" Ban Spree · · Score: 2

    easiest way for getting rid of all cheaters and whatever on WoW is to close everyone's accounts and discontinue the game.

    According to Amazon.com, Steve Ballmer isnt a real human.

  5. google. we make cool things...for a price. on No Shirt, No Shoes, No Service — and No Google Glass, Either · · Score: 2

    I like google glass, but I dont like the camera. same with I like Chromecast but I dont like that I cant use just anything with it. I like Chrome, its pretty fast and nice but I hate that it may or may not be keeping tabs on what I do or where I go (allegedly). if I could take out the camera and modify it to give me other information from the phone or whatever, that would be swell.

  6. uh huh on DARPA Begins Work On 100Gbps Wireless Tech With 120-mile Range · · Score: 1

    "Who knows, we might even one day have 100Gbps wireless links to our ISP." And be throttled to less than dial-up like every wireless isp out there. Mine sure does.

  7. whatever. on The Fastest ISPs In the US · · Score: 1

    Speed means jack squat if you are being throttled. My ISP is the fastest of my area. But they don't tell you about their Accepted Use Policy or whatever they call it now. Regardless if you are a 'heavy user' or not.

  8. Re:Drones are dirt cheap and no pilot dies. on Air Force Foresaw Fatal F-22 Problems; Rejected $100,000 Fix As Too Expensive · · Score: 1

    Every time I hear about this jet it's never good. Biased or not. I think it was only made for just squeezing taxpayer money so Lockheed(?) Could get revenue. like other military contractors.

  9. Thanks Apple on Apple Adds Samsung Galaxy SIII To Its Ban List · · Score: 5, Interesting

    For limiting my choices on (good or bad) products. I could rant endlessly about this but I'd be preaching to the choir. But wow, I don't like Apple at all now because of this.

  10. heh on Windows 8 Is 'a Work of Art.' But It's No Linux · · Score: 1

    "Linux Is 'a Work of Art.' But It's No Windows" The way people are talking about Windows 8 lately, there might be more interest in Linux.

  11. Carmen Sandiego on UK Authorities Threaten To Storm Ecuadorian Embassy To Arrest Julian Assange · · Score: 1

    Where is the World is Julian Assange? Only you can find him gumshoes!

  12. heat on Ask Slashdot: Why Aren't You Running KDE? · · Score: 2

    I use linux on my laptop, And I have to use it where it gets pretty hot in the summer. I've tried many enviroments and I stick with the one that runs my laptop the coolest on idle. KDE is like Gnome 3, they run my laptop pretty hot. MATE (Gnome 2) and XFCE were the least demanding out of the more functional enviroments. I'm glad someone kept Gnome 2 alive with MATE and I'll keep using it since I used it the most these past 6-8 years. (using mint right now) KDE has been pretty nice when I had it on my desktop. 3.x ran pretty good on a really crappy AMD K6-II laptop and I I'd never get any work done playing with the sheer amount of customization you can do on the fly. 4.0 is pretty, but its not feaseable at least on this laptop.

  13. to me on MS Will Remove OEM 'Crapware' For $99 · · Score: 1

    Reformatting is Free

  14. mind the broken glass on Apple Tells Siri To Stop Recommending Nokia · · Score: 0

  15. Re:Okay. on Feds Seized Website For a Year Without Piracy Proof · · Score: 3, Insightful

    a waste of taxpayer dollars

    One thing good about working in the government is that for anything you want to do, you dont have to foot the bill.

  16. Mate on Ubuntu 12.04 LTS Out; Unity Gets a Second Chance · · Score: 1

    Ubuntu doesnt force you to use Unity, though people seem to think they do. On my laptop Mint runs hotter for whatever reason. Ubuntu with unity runs cooler but I got tired of it. As soon as I re-installed Ubuntu and updated I added the repo to MATE and been using that instead.

  17. the beginning of on Billionaires and Polymaths Expected To Unveil a Plan To Mine Asteroids · · Score: 2

    Ultor Corporation. or maybe UAC.

  18. new trend on New SimCity To Require Constant Internet Connection · · Score: 1

  19. no on ISOC Hires MPAA Executive Paul Beringer · · Score: 1

    Group Of People That Dont Matter sounds better. their description sounds like a secret society.

  20. I see what they did on Fee Increase Attempt Inspires 'Dump Your Bank Day' · · Score: 1

    I was on unemployment recently, but before I got work and stopped I got a bunch of reminders that they were switching from checks to a debit card through Bank of America. Since people on unemployment don't have a choice, that's a prime position to throw a mandatory hike here and there for those cards. And since unemployment is so high... If the bailout wasn't clear enough of how the McBanks work, I'm glad that something finally pushed people away from them. Or at least starting to.

  21. I'd know what I'd write for my guess on Judge Rules Boss's "Firing Contest" Created a Hostile Work Environment · · Score: 1

  24. uh huh on Microsoft Out of Favor With Young, Hip Developers · · Score: 1

    "the idea of buying Microsoft software was a really problematic idea for them." problematic for most people. I dont like paying $400 for Word (and 3 other programs I might not use, ever). When I can just use Abiword.

  25. of course on Apple Is Nintendo's "Enemy of the Future" · · Score: 1

    This coming from a company that emulates Apple's business model (and their look).
