  1. Re:Could Passion of the Christ cause stabbings? on D&D Blamed For Stabbing Deaths · · Score: 1

    I think you are going on about things that have nothing to do with what I posted. I simply pointed out the fundamental flaw in the great-grandparent post. You are trying to bring up religion. Get over it.

  2. Re:Could Passion of the Christ cause stabbings? on D&D Blamed For Stabbing Deaths · · Score: 1

    With one slight difference. The pain inflicted was not portrayed as being a good thing. It was portrayed as being done by evil men. Violence in other movies and games are glorified.

  3. Re:Thank you for single handedly "fixing" mods... on History Flow Shows How Wiki Articles Evolve · · Score: 1

    I would mod you down, but I'm afraid I might come across it while meta-modding...

  4. Re:SCIENCE IS KILLING THE HUMAN RACE on UK Report Suggests Designer Offspring · · Score: 1

    To the idiot who modded this troll: Please do not moderate any longer.

    Simply because you do not LIKE a post does not make it a troll. I disagree with a lot of what was written above. However, it is insightful, but with a different viewpoint than many on Slashdot.

    If you cannot tolerate simple differences of opinion like this, then you are not fit for modern society.

    Don't worry. I meta-moderate based on reason, not my feelings on a subject. Even if I disagree with the poster, I will hammer the down-modder.

  7. Re:Off-Topic but curious on Microsoft Partially Opens Proprietary XML Format · · Score: 3, Funny

    Simple. He simply uses Windows Calculator, and translates from binary 10001100001111110101011000010111101011111010010 to hex. Simple when you think about it.

  8. Re:BBC is not conservative! on Culprit of Leaked Doctor Who Episode Found · · Score: 1

    When all of their corresponents in Iraq were handled by minders. They were not allowed to leave the presence of the minders. They could not speak to anyone that the minders said they were allowed to speak to. And remember that whatever a person said to the "journalist" would be heard by the minder, and reported to the authorities if not "appropriate". This is not surprising. What is, is that CNN never divulged this. When you saw the Iraqis praising Saddam, it was not under open circumstances. Had CNN qualified their interviews with this pertanent information, it would have given a much different view of Iraq than many of us got.

    Please point me to this rule. I'd really be interested to see the context.

    Thanks.

  10. Re:BBC is not conservative! on Culprit of Leaked Doctor Who Episode Found · · Score: 3, Insightful

    Just in case you aren't joking: Conservative in their manner of business... not political viewpoints. The BBC is more fair and balanced than any major news organization we have in the states. CNN used to compete, in my mind. However, revelations about their handling of pre-war Iraq journalism has tainted them.

  11. Not a suprise on Culprit of Leaked Doctor Who Episode Found · · Score: 3, Insightful

    I posted in the "speculation" news item, that the BBC is unlikely to do this type of thing. When looking for conspiracies one must take into account the character of the "persons" involved. The BBC is very above the board, and very conservative. Those two items combined made it hard to believe they would use misdirection in advertising. Combine that with the "accusers" were making wild speculation without any substantiation, and the conclusion of this story was obvious.

    If someone told you that the PSP is a portable gaming device, shoot these people. The PSP is not a portable gaming device, it is really a convergent portable entertainment device.

    Whenever I read "PSP", I automatically think of Paint Shop Pro. *shrug*

    Wouldn't this be about two for every school? I mean every student has two parents. The exception would be when siblings attend the school at the same time.

    No. The interview sucked. A lot of the questions picked were absolutely lame. I like to learn about things I know nothing of. After reading this interview, I don't feel I learned a whole lot. That is the purpose of an interview -- to enlighten and inform... unless this has become 'Teen magazine for geeks'.

    Okay. Lets put it to the test. Post your credit card number, expiration date, and "secret number" on back on Slashdot. Don't report it stolen for six months.

    I agree to reimburse you $50, but you agree to give me TEN PERCENT of the face value of the amount the credit card hods you responsible for.
