  1. FP? on Microsoft Confirms Original Xbox Support · · Score: 0

    I would have gotten the first post, but the 200 make believe games kept me away from /.

  2. Re:Stupid. on Congress Pays You $3 Billion to Keep Watching TV · · Score: 0

    And the majority of TVs sold today are between 13 to 24 inches. Which means that you could buy a TV July 1st, 2007 that dies within a year. Doesnt sound like a good deal to me...

  3. DUPE on FCC Giving Veto Power to FBI Over VoIP? · · Score: -1, Flamebait

    Jesus fucking christ on a cracker. Thats 3 dupes in a row. Come the fuck on, is this some sort of a sick joke? I mean fuck! These are dupes that are not even a day old!

  4. Re:Grammar Nazi on GMC to Begin Remotely Scanning Cars for Trouble · · Score: 0

    Or possessive. Shawn's OnStar system.

  5. Re:Why no modular DVRs? on Hitachi's Terabyte DVD Recorder · · Score: 0

    I have, and it works fine for me... The fact that the boxes UI sucks in general though is unavoidable...

  6. Re:The book's out on the DS, still, too on PSP 2.0 Update Finally Released · · Score: 0

    But whats the average age of MMRPG games though? I think the majority of those people are definatly in the 20+ age range, and they're all into Zelda, and other Nintendo franchises. The PSP has a cool tech factor, but I don't want to "blow shit up" on a handheld. I want something that can keep me entertained, its too hard to kill 10 minutes "blowing shit up" when you can spend 10 minutes moving along further in a qwest... -Shawn

  7. Re:About Time Maybe on Web Access Over Power Lines · · Score: 0

    I live in Cedar Rapids, Iowa (the Heartland) have two cable companies, a trio of Wireless ISPs, 2 GSM cellphone networks (T-Mobile, Cingular), 3 CDMA networks (US Cellular, Sprint PCS, Verizon), a pair TDMA networks (US Cellular and Cingular). My cable company offers ethernet to the home, piggybacked on their phone service at speeds up to 7MB/sec (http://www.mcleodusa.com/ATS/InternetServices/Bus DataLink.do;jsessionid=0000mkfmhYaf4O_ls7FUrozT9tL :uquv7396) Come on, just because we're not on the coast doesn't mean we dont have any access to the internet.

  8. Re:Dupe on New Digital Camera Lens Made of Liquid · · Score: 1

    Sorry, I did read the article, I'm not a optics tech so I figured they were the same...

  9. Dupe on New Digital Camera Lens Made of Liquid · · Score: 0, Redundant

    I mean, a camera lens is a camera lens, right? http://hardware.slashdot.org/article.pl?sid=04/12/ 02/1940255&tid=100

  10. Re:Hey, I happen to like this... on Linux For Supervillains · · Score: 1

    Um... nothing has changed. Installing Linux is just as hard now as it was then.

  11. Re:Sweet! on ZyXel P-2000W VoIP WLAN Phone Reviewed · · Score: 1

    Yawn. I much prefer unlimited GSM cellular. Prepaid, $45/mo.

  12. Re:BSD v Linux on Another Step Towards BSD on the Desktop · · Score: 1

    If you baught a brand new laptop, why isn't this old junker in the trash bin? Maybe you love living with piles of outdated/broken crap around. Personaly, me, I have one computer (DP G5) in my house and thats it. Wouldnt have it any other way.

  13. Re:BSD v Linux on Another Step Towards BSD on the Desktop · · Score: 1

    You're shitting me... right?

    Come on man, buy some new components. Shit, some times people on here amaize me with their stupididty. How much is your time worth? Fuck, even if you worked at Burger King you make $7 an hour. How long has it taken you to try all these different OSes? At least 10 hours, I'd be willing to bet -- 7*10=$70. So just go to work, and buy yourself a new f'ing motherboard.
