    Except many Iranians hold the US responsible, at least in part, for their many government problems they currently experience.

  2. Re:Significance on NASA Announces Water Found On Mars · · Score: 2, Insightful

    I firmly believe that extraterrestrial life does not exist (and never has)

    Around here we tend to rely on evidence and not beliefs.

  3. Re:I reiterate on The Universe Is 13.73 Billion Years Old · · Score: 1

    Personally, I'd rather see our scientific dollars spent closer to home. But the universe IS our home...

    Bruce Willis? Is that you?

  5. Re:So What? on World of Warcraft Hits 10 Million Subscribers · · Score: 1

    Why is such a racist comment modded insightful?

    Yeah this is exactly the type of thing pricks like Gabe do; help raise over a million dollars for sick children. What a prick...

    You sir, are the reason I love Slashdot so much.

  12. Re:not really outraged..? on Orange Box In Stores Wednesday · · Score: 4, Insightful

    I am in total agreement. Initially I hated the idea of Steam and wouldn't touch it for some time, but I eventually caved because I wanted to play HL2. Since then I order my games on Steam if they are available because I'm one of those people that always loses CDs and CD keys. The ability to keep track of your friends in game is quite a nice feature. One click lets you jump into their game, on their server. Other games, you would have to contact them via other means, and communicate an ip address, etc. Sure, it's DRM, but it works for us too, very much unlike the music industry.

  17. Re:It's copying. It's not theft. on Patti Santangelo v. RIAA May Be Over · · Score: 1

    This is why we'll never see the replicator technology in Star Trek with current ideas. If Picard had to pay $0.99 every time he asked for his earl grey, it would defeat the purpose.

  18. Re:How soon before the world blows up? on Billions Face Risks From Climate Change · · Score: 2, Informative

    Maybe the situation is, you know, getting worse?

  21. Re:Got to suck to be Microsoft sometimes. on Linux Passes the Microsoft WGA Test · · Score: 1

    If the WGA check works under WINE on Linux, then Microsoft gets made fun of. If it doesn't, they're accused of anti-trust violations, malfeasance, and generally being bad.

    So?
