  1. Re:Legit WoW Players: Beware of Deflation on Blizzard, Square/Enix Ban Yet More Farmers · · Score: 1

    I can not believe that I just read an economic review that included the words "Arcane Crystal". I don't know what to do with myself now, I am pretty sure the end of days is coming. I better go pray to Jesus.

  2. Re:Exactly, Are you just a Cog, or a Human? on Google's Love For Small Businesses · · Score: 1

    Another idea about that, some people expect a little too much from an employee. I work at a locally owned petstore/gas station and I get questions that I just can not answer unless I had a vetrinary degree. I also have had one lady threaten to call the cops on me because I "can not treat the customer right." This was after she called me an asshole. I did not call her anything, simply demanded the free car wash back and at this point she threatened to call the cops. Working there has taught me one simple lesson, the people taking your money are people, they probaly do not want to be there, so treat them nicely, you have no more right to be a bastard than they do.

  3. Re:Watching TV != DDR's Goal? on Dance Dance Revolution Spawns TV Show · · Score: 2, Interesting

    DDR is not about getting up, its about making money. And if they can make money with a TV show then who cares if you move or not.

  4. More importantly on 40% of Adults Play Games · · Score: 3, Insightful

    What percentage of gamers are adults? I think that would be much more interesting than the other way.

  5. Awesome! on Tearing Down China's Great Firewall · · Score: 1

    All they would have to do is post the program on a website and then all the Chinese could download it. . .

  6. Re:There is no such thing as bad publicity on Developers React To 'Wii' · · Score: 1

    I am really sick about people saying that the name will stop "hardcore" gamers from playing it. Personaly I would hope that if they really are "hardcore" gamers then they would not care about the name. They should care more about how well it plays than the little piece of plastic that says Wii.

  7. Enron on Nintendo Revolution Renamed 'Wii' · · Score: 1

    "Ask Wii"

  8. So happy. . on Senators Renew Call for .XXX Domain · · Score: 1

    I am so happy that are senators spend time working on these kinds of bills. I would hate for them to do something good like say. . .fund schools. . .or law enforcment. . .or hold people accountable for messing up. . .

  9. Notifying on Google Moving PRC Records Out of China · · Score: 1

    I thought they were already displaying if the search was censored or not.

  10. Re:Great... on Minnesota GOP's CD Raises Privacy Concerns · · Score: 1

    cold? It has been the crappiest winter ever this year. Barely been cold, barely any snow.

  11. Another Question on Switching a College from Desktops to Laptops? · · Score: 1

    Next year I will be heading off to college, hopefully, and I was wondering what people thoughts are on what laptop I should try to get. I have an alright budget, I do not want to spend that much but my parents will also spend some on it. Thanks for any input.

  12. Re:Jesus Christ! on Yahoo! Bans "Allah" in Screen Names · · Score: 1

    The difference between having a picture of Jesus and Mohammed is that it is not only wildy accepted to have pictures of Jesus but it is basicaly encouraged. In the Muslim world it goes against religous law to have a depiction of Mohammed. And on a different note most of the pictures of Jesus we have do not look at all like what he would have looked so its not like they really count.

  13. Re:THGTTG on 10 Best S/F Films That Never Existed · · Score: 1

    Thats crazy because when I went the theater was full and everyone laughed. . .a lot. Its like we saw different movies or maybe. . .just maybe its because movie reviewing is a matter of opinion. There is no point in arguing if one movie was good or one was bad because its a matter of opinion. There is no right or wrong answer its all just about how you feel towards a movie and thats why two people can see the same movie and one like it and the other hate it.

  14. Re:Love is a survival trait. on Love Under a Microscope · · Score: 1

    Depending on your views towards evolution isn't every human action and drive a result of natural selection. What can not be brought back to some sort of animalesque instinct?

  15. Re:Potential? on IM On Mobile Phones · · Score: 1

    There is usualy no line where I work. I work at a very small gas station. And the time it adds is minutes and I can totaly understand when people seem in a rush and everything but usualy they dont or else they wouldnt even take the time to make the comment. Its just something that annoys me, that and the people who try to talk to me while talking on their cell phones. Either one or the other people not both.

  16. Re:Potential? on IM On Mobile Phones · · Score: 3, Interesting

    We barely have to look at each other now. I work at a gas station and because its incredibly old we still dont have any pay at the pump credit car machines. I get people walking inside constantly complaining about this. And even more scary are people who come in and tell me they have never payed for gas inside before, a 40 year old women told me this recently. I usualy just glare at the people who complain and ask them if human contact is really that bad of a thing.

  17. Double Payment on Verizon Threatens Google's 'Free Lunch' · · Score: 1

    So we pay verizon to access content using Verizon's infrastructure. Google pays verizon to let us access content using Verizon's infrastructure. I always love those commercials about removing the middle man.

  18. Let me get this right. . . on Microsoft Spending $120M To Look Smaller · · Score: 1

    They are spending over a $100 million to make themselves look smaller. Would that be like putting a tent over an elephant to make it look smaller? I mean really using a large amount of money to appear to be smaller. . .

  19. Y2K Part 2 on Forecasting Doomsday · · Score: 1

    So basicaly we should gather a lot of supplies together like water and guns to shoot our neighbors when they try to steal from us? This sounds familiar. .

  20. Anyone out there read The World is Flat? on Best Online Examples of Workflow Patterns? · · Score: 1

    I started it and tried to read it but found it a slow read. His points were not very interesting and I really thought it was just badly written.
