  1. Re:Why buy the PSP? on IRC On The PSP · · Score: 3, Insightful
    It doesn't weigh as much.

    I'm no Sony fanboy (in fact, I'm more of a nintendo fanboy), but that argument was ridiculous.

    However, you can try this.

  2. Move along... on Math Awareness Month · · Score: 3, Funny

    nothing to see... oh wait, nevermind.

  3. Wait a second. on OCRemix.org Partners with Electronic Arts · · Score: 1

    It's April 1st. It must be a joke. HAHAHA.

  4. Please no! on OCRemix.org Partners with Electronic Arts · · Score: 1

    What's next, Slashdot merging with *GASP* Microsoft?

  5. PSP an iPod replacement? HAH! on Sony to Make an "iTunes for Movies" · · Score: 5, Insightful

    Not with the expensive memory stick duos or w/o a umd burner it won't.

  6. Re:Bongos+Stylus+Mother=...? on Nintendo Revolution Details Reaffirmed · · Score: 1

    Darn you, when I saw Mother, I thought Nintendo would bring Earthbound to the Revolution.

  7. Re:Windows? on Hack turns GIMP into Photoshop Look-alike · · Score: 1

    I think the site provides the source code. I'll compile in MinGW and see how it goes.

  8. Parents can play too on Nintendo Revolution Details Reaffirmed · · Score: 1
    From TFA:

    Iwata comments: "For the next-generation console, we plan to introduce a friendly user interface so that, for example, a mother who's watching her child playing a game might say, 'Oh, I'd like to try that too.'

    Reminds me of that commercial

  9. Time consuming on John Carmack's Cell Phone Adventures · · Score: 4, Funny
    Apparently mobile gaming on cell phones has consumed a large portion of his time of late

    No kidding. When I play chess against the AI on my phone, the thing takes minutes to make a move. It usually takes 20 minutes to play a game that would take two humans to play in 5.

  10. Re:Asking Slashdot on New Photoshop Details Leaked · · Score: 1

    Picasa from Google does that I think.

  11. Time to rename something. on French Response to Google is Microsoft · · Score: 1

    We can't let France do that can we? No more Windows XP, from now on it will be known as FREEDOM XP.

  12. Cancelled on Large Prize Offered For Writing Mac Virus · · Score: 2, Informative

    RTFA. It's cancelled.

  13. Lag... on PSP Launch Coverage · · Score: 1
    From GameTab:

    Need for Speed Underground Rivals

    A couple times I experienced some pretty bad slowdown. At one point during a race, all four cars were basically ramming into each other and the game dropped to about three frames per second. When I came around to that same point the next lap, there was no collision and no slowdown. I've read that I'm not alone in this situation.

    Is this a hardware or software problem?

  14. Just thought this was funny on How the Spam Industry is Sustained · · Score: 3, Interesting
    From TFA:

    "The list of words most commonly hidden by the spammers from anti-spam software reveals that most spam is about the old favourites: money, drugs and sex," said Mr Cluley.

  15. Re:So sue him? on Jon Johansen Breaks iTunes DRM Yet Again · · Score: 1, Redundant
    "They" have.

    From TFA:

    Johansen was prosecuted in Norway for releasing the DeCSS code in 1999, but was ultimately cleared of charges.

  16. A Name! on Jon Johansen Breaks iTunes DRM Yet Again · · Score: 4, Interesting
    At least they called him by his name, not just "The iTunes back door guy."

    I wonder, did he work around it that quickly, or was he anticipating Apple's fix and already knew another way around it?

  17. Re:Na-hee-na-na-jar on Classic Math Puzzle Cracked · · Score: 4, Funny

    "We'll be getting rid of these people here... First, Mr. Samir Naga... Naga... Naga... Not gonna work here anymore, anyway."

  18. Haha, impuse, on Whither the Impulse Shopper? · · Score: 1, Redundant

    I'm curious, which store is the author trying to buy the PSP from?

  19. Re:Who will manage these? on The Rise of Smart Buildings · · Score: 1

    The BOFH and the pimply faced youth, duh.

  20. Spam anyone? on Online Purchases Can Give You Away · · Score: 2, Insightful
    Amazon would remind potential gift purchasers by sending them emails or an alert when they log on to the website.

    I hope they make this service optional.

  21. Easy to cheat? on Stock Market for Geek Culture · · Score: 4, Interesting
    From TFA:

    * You're bullish on podcasting; you buy shares of PODCAST stock * Britney announces her next single will be delivered exclusively via podcast * Curious tweens everywhere flood Yahoo! with searches about podcasting * Your shares skyrocket; you make a bundle

    Couldn't you fix the results by asking friends to search for something? Either that, or post a link on Slashdot :)

  22. That's no moon! on Saturn's Moon Enceladus Has an Atmosphere · · Score: 1, Funny

    That's a space station!

  23. I for one... on Hitachi Unveils Humanoid Robot · · Score: 3, Funny

    ...welcome our segway-like overlords.

  24. Re:Great, But... on WinOS+QEMU+Knoppix 3.8 = WinKnoppix! · · Score: 1

    You don't need to wipe your system, Knoppix is live eval. Isn't that proof enough?

  25. Re:bah! on Instant Buildings - Just Add Water · · Score: 1

    Heh, buildings in Levittown were supposedly built on average in 15 minutes.
