    Smart-ass on an Impossible Schedule?

    I loved that movie!

  2. HOLD IT! on The Grumpy Gamer Speaks · · Score: 1
    Your Honor, if you bought your copy of Phoenix Wright second hand, then all of the cases will have already been unlocked. In Phoenix Wright *holds up DS and gestures at it*, you can skip text that's already been played by holding the stylus down on the > button. This would greatly reduce the time taken to complete the game: the only unskippable sequences being the case introductions.

    <Judge> The prosecution has a point...

    -OBJECTION!-

    <Phoenix> This is mere conjecture, the prosecution has no evidence that the defendent has bought a second hand copy of Phoenix Wright!

    <Edgeworth> GYAAHH! *leans on desk*

  3. Re:Upon trying to read the blurb on FBI Password Database Compromised by Consultant · · Score: 1

    I guess this might be the last thing we'll ever hear from this consultant.

  4. HOLD IT! on The Grumpy Gamer Speaks · · Score: 2, Informative

    You sit down with a publisher and the minute you mention anything like an adventure game or something story-based or adventure-game-like in any way, the meeting's basically over.

    Your Honor, how do you explain the existence, and subsequence release of the popular Nintendo DS adventure-attourney game, 'Phoenix Wright: Ace Attourney' (Originally a Game Boy Advance game: 'Gyakuten Saiban' roughly 'Comeback Court')

  5. Re:I don't care what they claim. on Plasma Needle to Replace Dentist's Drill · · Score: 1

    That's the worst haiku I've ever heard.

  6. Re:What's the legality of "Turning off an OS" on Windows Genuine Advantage Makes Few Friends · · Score: 1

    They can change the terms of the license at will, and every future license supercedes previous license terms. (I -think-. IANAL)

  7. Re:Pickpockets on Colorado Sheriffs To WarDrive For Safety · · Score: 1
    My very young cousin once asked me what 'prosecuted' meant. I told her that it meant the same as 'electrocuted'... and I said it would happen as soon as you tried to leave the store.


    Needless to say, it scared her silly. :)

  8. Re:Pickpockets on Colorado Sheriffs To WarDrive For Safety · · Score: 3, Funny

    I would have just stolen the sign, myself.

  9. Fix on 'Big Brother' Eyes Make Us Act More Honestly · · Score: 1
    Okay... so, we react to the eyes. Fair enough.


    *hangs his coat on top of the honesty box*


    Nobody sees the eyes or the box.

  10. Spaceballs! on EU Prepared to Fine Microsoft $2.5 Million Per Day · · Score: 1

    What are you preparing. You're always preparing. Just go!

  11. Or alternatively... on RL T-Shirt Store Opens Branch in Second Life · · Score: 1

    you could make your own...?

  12. Re:They aren't fighting them. on Linux Hackers Reclaim the WRT54G · · Score: 1
    I misread that as 'I believe the Linux edition contains more money'.


    Hmm...

  13. Okay... is it just me... on The 10 Tech People Who Don't Matter · · Score: 1

    ...or do they all have freakin' scary smiles!?

    (And I am yelling, because it's scary!)

  14. Men in Black on Biometric Payment Arrives in a Store Near You · · Score: 1

    This means that the Men in Black can't buy anything. :(

  15. Re:A lonely man in a lonely city on Internet to Blame for Lack of Close Friends · · Score: 1
    Yeah... gotta hate that home theatre.


    Getting all my friends round watching a DVD, room full of people jeering at the anti-piracy ads: 'What... you BOUGHT it? Why didn't ya just ask X to burn it?' Watching a way cool movie, having a couple of drinks. Movie's over... pull out some more tricks with your home entertainment goodies. Sounds like a plan to me.


    Maybe you're just introverted?

  16. Y'know on DefectiveByDesign Supporters to Call on RIAA Execs · · Score: 1
    There's no guarantee that the numbers that they're going to post are going to real...


    Either way, the numbers will appear in this comments page shortly afterwards so calm down, dear! (And it probably really is just a commercial)

  17. Re:As a counterpoint on Microsoft Workers Prefer Google · · Score: 1

    You want slashdot to slashdot itself?

  18. Re:I think Ice Cube said it best on Data Theft and Corporate Irresponsibility? · · Score: 1
    In that case, let's all become senators.


    How's that strike y'all?

  19. Re:It was so much simpler on Wired Interview with Copyright Comic Authors · · Score: 2
    Eeeveryone would be happy and no-one would get hurt.

    Apart from the folks who wrote Don't Copy That Floppy.

    Link for those as-yet unaffected by... this thing.

  20. Re:So, let's think of the countermeasures... on Prototype System Blocks Digital Cameras · · Score: 1
    Ordinary digicams with automatic focus rely on the input from the CCD/CMOS to determine whether the subject image is in focus. (My Kodak Easyshare does, at least)

    You could try to modify your camera so it had fake lenses all over it, like some kind of twisted techno-anemone. Besides, this technology seeks out reflective CCD's, right? How much will this tech cost, and how many of these would be able to run at once? Would they be able to synchronize their efforts so they're not zapping the same source? What if everybody has a camera? (Reminiscent of the starting titles from Arthur... HEY, DW!... Hey!)

  21. Re:It's all nice and well on Prototype System Blocks Digital Cameras · · Score: 1

    Impromptu, free LASIK! I love it.

  22. Pricing on The Indie Developer's Guide to Selling Games · · Score: 1
    $34.95 for a Paperback, and $27.95 for a PDF is a hell of a lot for a book, I think.

    But then again, have you ever bought an indie game for $19.99 to $24.99?

  23. So... on Wired Interview with Copyright Comic Authors · · Score: 3, Informative
    Is it illegal for Slashdot to mention the names of the authors or the title of the book?

    The book is called 'Bound By Law? Tales From the Public Domain', and it is co-written and produced by Keith Aoki, James Boyle and Jennifer Jenkins. The art is by Aoki.

  24. Re:There's more than just pixel count . . . on 111-Megapixel CCD Chip Ships · · Score: 1
    Or they could stop bloody wrecking all our pictures by automatically encoding with the JPG format!


    Where's the linux based cameras with the flashable firmware, eh? >:(

  25. We own ELF? on SCO Claims Ownership of ELF To Court · · Score: 1
    Isn't ELF the primary format of semi-linked executables for ARM chipsets?

    I do NDS and GBA programming, and there's elves flying all over the place. (Although that might be something I ate)

    Would these guys wage war against Nintendo/ARM/whoever's responsible for this?

    In short, they're just being silly now.
