  1. Re:so was Sin City a comic? on Comics Escape a Paper Box and Evolve to the Web · · Score: 1

    First, "e comic" sounds like shit, and if they start calling them that, I'm going to kill someone. And second, the only difference paper comics have from web comics is their method of distribution. However, the difference between paper and film is much bigger; there's sound, animation, and of course to make a good movie you need a pretty big budget, while anyone who can draw decently can make good comics for very little money.

    The fact is, Indian doctors can be just as capable as doctors from the US, or other Western nations. The same goes for the IT industry.

    Yes, they can be, but SURPRISE! Most of them aren't.

  3. Re:One step forward... on IBM Donates Code to Firefox · · Score: 1

    I can (and often do) use the same browser window from the moment I wake up to the moment I go to sleep. If that isn't stability, then I don't know what is. And yes, I do have loads of extensions.

    Yes, it may not be serious, but it brings up some good points.

  11. Re:i'm confused.... on Hundreds of Sites Blocked By Canadian ISP · · Score: 1

    That's what I was saying; a lot of sites are hosted on the same server, and as a result usually have the same IP address.

    Yes. A lot of cheaper hosting plans host the site on the same server as many others.

  13. Re:what the hell? on Windows Guru Calls For IE7 Boycott · · Score: 1

    what the hell?

    Exactly what I was thinking as I read your post. It may be more standards compliant than before, but it's still not near as good as other browsers that have been around for years. I'm not going to applaud them for their efforts because they suck slightly less than before.

    They aren't talking about their damn bosses, they're saying that their bosses think that they (the IT workers) are too young.

  18. Re:Parent is flaimbait on Senator Carper Calls for Tax on Online Porn · · Score: 1

    "And for you to say it is okay for a child to watch it, that makes you a pedophile."
    Get your fucking terms straight. A pedophile is somebody who is sexually attracted to children. Thinking it's okay for them to see porn doesn't have anything to do with that.

    "Maybe if sex is something sacred, then the divorce rate and infidelity would not be so high."
    It's nothing 'sacred'. It's a natural bodily function, no more sacred than urinating is.

    "And the next thing we will see is beastiality becomming normal."
    So, killing them is okay, but having sex with them is pure EVIL!!! ?

    I can say from personal experience that most of it isn't, just some of the gangbang stuff.

  20. Re:Who decides? on Senator Carper Calls for Tax on Online Porn · · Score: 1

    And then there's the trouble of actually finding the servers, as it's easy to make a web site invisible. And what about free porn? 25% of nothing is still nothing.

    In other words, if someone doesn't know how to use software, they are stupid. This is a common sentiment on Slashdot. Why?
    That's not what I'm saying. What I'm saying is that most people lose all common sense (and the ability to spell correctly) when they get anywhere near a computer. You don't have to have written your own OS to realise that when it says "Press any key to continue", it isn't referring to a specific key on your keyboard labeled "Any", and yet people actually have this problem. It's such a common sentiment that most people who use computers are total idiots because it's correct.
