  1. Re:Who are the competators on Crazy Non-Compete Contracts? · · Score: 1

    The general clause is that they shall not render "web-services" for a competitor. Considering they are a web designer. That kinda kills their whole career field for one year.

  2. In the midst of quittingq on Can You Be Sued for Quitting? · · Score: 1

    I'm not particularly against the two weeks norm. My first job I quit by giving my two weeks but called off the last 3 days of it, but it was a shit job anyway. I quit working at a gas station by locking the gas station up (it was a 24 hour gas station) while waiting for a new employee to relieve me (he was 2 hours late). I just wrote a note, put my keys under the floor mat and walked off. My current job found out I had started another company and had come to me over it before I had a chance to give them the one month I was planning. I'm in the middle of my "two month" notice and they're already offering my new company jobs. So I think not burning bridges is the best approach if applicable. It all depends on the employer. I don't particularly hate my current employers. I'm just tired of what they do and if I just dissapeared it'd sink them.

  3. Re:apple + videogames = ? on Apple Console Rumour Resurfaces · · Score: 1

    Who the hell wants to edit photos on a gaming counsel? First off, trying to constitute a PS3 as a cheap solution to a computer is ridiculous. Despite being able to use a keyboard/mouse on a PS3, you're going to use a regular TV to edit photos? Even with an HD tv you're going to have to shell out $2000+ and at that point I think it's moot. (Speculation)Plus you have to be somewhat tech savvy to even run linux/install it on the PS3 which most consumers aren't and could possibly brick the damn thing. Linux on the PS3 is a geek's wet dream but serves a purpose like tits on a bull. Sony just beat us to the question as to whether you could put linux on it. And Frankly, I'd rather have my gaming counsel and my work machine separate. I don't like mixing my ice cream with my mashed potatoes.

    ChronoCloud... Sony or Square Fanboi? I'm putting my money on Sony.

  4. so does the post office... on Final Fantasy XII Pushes Envelopes · · Score: 5, Funny

    and I don't see slashdot posting articles about them.

  5. I have to agree. Halo does have more substance... on First Impressions of Halo 3 · · Score: 3, Insightful

    Than most console FPSs. For starters I was only into computer gaming until I got a playstation, then I had a fall out of gaming altogether. I bought PS2 at launch, bought GTA3 and all that, but it just never stuck with me. Then I got a taste of Halo at a friends and it was over from there. It turned into my new mario or zelda. Halo 3 is the one true game that I'm looking forward to and I think whatever bungie does following halo will be at the same caliber and possibly better.

  6. Damn... Another 100,000 years?? on Human Species May Split In Two · · Score: 1

    Common Sauron!!! You said I'd have my Army in WEEKS!?!? Damnit!

  7. And???? on Poll Says No Voter Support for Net Neutrality · · Score: 1

    How does this not suprise me? The majority of net neutrality information was distributed on sites (like this one, which most people don't read because it doesn't offer coupons for the gap) or by shitty emo youtube videos(which no one takes seriously). I'm sure the issues been catered to look pointless in the eyes of printed media so thier pappy coroporations can get a heads up from the ISPS to make sure you get an extra DRM'd lassie in 240 by 320 for your video portable.

  8. Re:Don't Bother With The 360 Version on Prey Review · · Score: 1

    Umm.. I've played both the PC and the 360 version. It's pretty similar and concidering I've invested well over $700 into my PC, let alone a monitor. I don't see how the 360 is a worse buy. I just think you're pissed because kids dropping $400 on a 360 can play something you dropped $2000 on your 1337 rig to play the same game. That and your penis is small and you're trying to over compensate.

  9. W00! I can't wait! on Passively Multiplayer Gaming · · Score: 2, Funny

    I'm going to drop my career and social life so I can minmax on pointless TV trivia!

  10. Re:Not Surprising on Assassin's Creed Not a PS3 Exclusive? · · Score: 1

    AC was demoed on a 360 dev with a modded PS3 controller. I never heard anything about it being demoed on a PS3. That's where this rumor got its teeth and why everyone in the world is making such a bold claim.

  14. Re:I'm still looking for Mechassault on The Xbox 360 Uncloaked · · Score: 1

    I think there was a dashboard update that fixed that softmod.. There's also golden eye and even a splinter cell exploit too.

  15. **THIS JUST IN* * NEW NAME A TYPO!! on Nintendo Revolution Renamed 'Wii' · · Score: 0

    The actual name of the system is the Nintedo 'WWII' and while the whole time the media kept calling it mistakenly the 'Revolution', at Nintendo the name of the project was called the Nintendo 'Hiroshima'. This joke was brought to you in: 'Bad Taste' Directed by Peter Jackson

  16. Yippee on Pregnancy In Second Life · · Score: 3, Funny

  17. Re:The real key to acceptance: Adult Movies on Consumer Problems with Blu-ray and HD-DVD · · Score: 1

    I disagree with the PS3 part of it. Old dirty men don't buy game systems for themselves or kids.. They're dirty old men... Have you ever been to a porn store?? The guys there don't play games, they drink in bars and can't program a VCR. I can see a $300ish HD-DVD player more succeptable to be getting picked up for their porn than a $400-500 swiss army game system. Pr0n will lead the way out of these war torn lands!!!

  18. Re:Sad day indeed on Exploring The 360's Crashing and Heat · · Score: 3, Insightful

    I have to say that every time the 360 comes into the limelight I smell the fanboyism all over the place. If it isn't the PC gamers than its the sony or nintendo freaks and everyone slings a nice thick wad of mud on the other guy while thinking they're preference is so high and mighty. I've owned all 3 systems and I've gone through my share of crap with all of them. I've yet to cross that road with my 360. But I know they're imperfect machines designed by imperfect humans and assembled by more imperfect people. Shit happens. The way of Bill is the way to salvation. All hail the green Pope!
