  1. Re:Why would I want a PSP? on PSP And DS Duke It Out · · Score: 1

    So you can pay more for games, have a crappy MP3 Player and have to buy all your movies again so you can watch them on a 3.5 inch screen? Your wasted loot...

  2. Why would I want a PSP? on PSP And DS Duke It Out · · Score: 1

    Big Screen: Nice for about five minutes. Then it's dead. I've managed to start damaging my DS screen and it has a cover on it and I'm relatively careful. That PSP screen would be butchered if I had one of those. Movies: Who watches movies on a mobile device? No one, that's who. Plus you'd have 3 hours of battery (tops) with the UMD constantly spinning to watch the movie. Price: Clear victory for DS. Music: Why would I want an mp3 player that costs more, weighs more, and lacks features (read: Hold switch) compared to it's rivals. GFX: the only clear win for the PSP. Gameplay: I haven't been to impressed with the DS yet but I haven't seen more than one or two things that look on the PSP. I'm atleast seeing some neat shit in the works for the DS.

    In a similar (but meaner spirited) vein, I once took a screen shot of my mom's desktop, removed all the icons, minimized the start bar and then set the screen shot as the desktop background. Ahhh good times.

    LINUX IS NOT UNIX NUMBNUTS!!! ARE YOU MENTALLY FUCKING RETARDED? Linux was inspired by Minix which was inspired by Unix. It uses the same/similar commands and shares alot of software but they're not the same thing. Saying they are is like saying Windows is the Xerox GUI 'cause they copied shit off it. Hell it's also like saying DOS is unix because they copied alot of ideas from it (and alot of commands are very similar in function/name with only slight tweaks). Beyond that, UNIX is not a time waster. It's just as efficient if not more so than windows. Have you ever even ran something off a command line? It can be alot easier that fucking around with a sluggish, poorly written and retarded GUI (IE windows).

    Nasa and other such organizations are essential to the survival of the human race. Without a proper space program then people will never leaver Earth/ The Solar System and then when something goes awry you can wave bye to the human race. Now, seeing as you obviously have moral objection to NASA, let's make a deal. If earth is ever under threat of destruction and NASA offers you tickets on any life boat they may think up you have to give them to me so you don't violate your moral objection to a government funded space program. Agree?
