  1. Re:Completely misleading on Online Parent-Child Gap Widens · · Score: 1

    Meeting people I've met online can be pretty tricky. A lot of the people I know don't live in the same state, or even in the same country as me.
    I can't imagine how a high schooler meets up with anyone that isn't already in their same community.

  2. Re:Huh? on The Life of a Software Engineer · · Score: 1

    This article seems unworthy...
    I say seems because I can't actually access the article. I'm going off the title. It tells me that it is an uninteresting and generally useless blob of text.
    I'll assume the site has been temporarily destroyed by being erroneously linked-to on the front page of slashdot.

  3. Re:Good for the goose... on Courts Force Danish ISP to Block Torrent Tracker · · Score: 1

    It's more of a ridiculous stunt than a serious attempt to stop piracy. (Or, if it is serious, it's pretty fucking poor attempt)
    There's no need to do anything except what grabs the most attention.

  4. Re:Great Map! on How One Clumsy Ship Caused A Major Net Outtage · · Score: 1

  5. Re:Great Map! on How One Clumsy Ship Caused A Major Net Outtage · · Score: 1

    Here's an upscaled version. http://img295.imageshack.us/my.php?image=seacablehiiifz4.jpg

    I don't know what it says under "Damaged" but everything else is pretty readable.

  6. Re:Educational / Scientific Use? on Italian Parliament To Mistakenly Legalize MP3 P2P · · Score: 1

    You know, not all .mp3 files contain copyrighted content, and, shockingly, it is possible to legally own copyrighted content.

  7. Re:Meaning of words on Italian Parliament To Mistakenly Legalize MP3 P2P · · Score: 4, Insightful

    The intentionally misinterpreted version of a definition is the only version that really matters.

  8. Space age is old news on American Space Age Reaches Fifty Years · · Score: 1

    This is not the space age.

  9. Re:Warning: on Valve Takes on Piracy With Free, Pre-Packaged Game Publishing Tools · · Score: 1

    be careful with untested third party software

    Pretty insightful if you ask me.

  10. Everyone loves the SNES on What's the Best Game Console of All Time? · · Score: 1

    But I'm actually a bit partial to the, uh... SNES.
    I just can't get enough Chrono Trigger / Tales of Phantasia / Super Mario RPG
    FF3 / Earthbound / Secret of Evermore / Zelda:ALinkToThePast / Megaman X
    Yoshi's Island / Zombies ate my neighbors / etc.
    Yeah, Zombies ate my neighbors, I said it.

    There's really no shortage of great SNES games. They're fun and memorable and that kind of crap.

  11. Kids play games on When Are Kids Old Enough to Play Videogames? · · Score: 1

    Children play games all the time. What's so different about video games that makes them unacceptable?

  12. Shocking! on Vinyl Gets Its Groove Back · · Score: 1

    Turns out nobody actually cares, though. There are more important things to think about than insignificant/nonexistent differences in audio quality.

    Or in other words: Vinyl isn't coming back because it's vinyl.

  13. Re:But the big question is... on GM Says Driverless Cars Will Be Ready By 2018 · · Score: 3, Funny

    I'm still waiting for Lavos to pop out of the ground, in 1999.

  14. Re:How about "Phoning Home" and DRM? on Most Consumers Sitting Out The High-Def War · · Score: 1

    A message designed to discourage piracy actually encourages it.
    Man, irony is great.

  15. DVD/HD on Most Consumers Sitting Out The High-Def War · · Score: 3, Interesting

    No compelling reasons to upgrades, compelling reasons not to upgrade.

    Sounds familiar. Anyone?

  16. Less than interesting on A Peek At the Origin of PS3's New Visualizer · · Score: 0, Troll

    *yawn*

  17. Bundles on Retail Store Scalping Wii Consoles on eBay · · Score: 0, Flamebait

    I have to buy a console and games? Boo hoo!

  18. Curiously strong on Couple Busted For Shining Laser At Helicopter · · Score: 1

    This has got to be some bullshit.
    What sort of laser causes disorientation and pain in the eyes for hours? (After a fraction of a second of indirect exposure, and at long range?)

  19. Re:China man on Is Shawn Fanning's Snocap melting? · · Score: 1

    That phrase doesn't strike me as being particularly racist.

  20. Re:Slight problem on More Evidence That XP is Vista's Main Competitor · · Score: 1

    what the hell would it need DX10 for?

    What does any game need DX10 for? Nothing, except to make it "vista-only".

  21. Re:Who actually uses that button? on The 110 Million Dollar Button · · Score: 1

    If I were to use that button, odds are that I would get to the page, determine it's not what I want... click back, then click the regular search button.

    You are not lucky.

  22. P2P vs speed? on Mark Cuban Calls on ISPs to Block P2P · · Score: 1

    What effect, if any, would there be on Mark Cuban's internet speed after blocking all P2P traffic?
    I sort of assume he gets whatever speeds he pays for, regardless of the load other people are putting on their connections.

  23. Portal on Why Do Games Still Have Levels? · · Score: 1

    Portal has individual, disconnected levels because its story was specifically designed for it.
    When you're done with one test chamber you get on a elevator and go to the next one. I don't see any artificial interruptions in the gameplay.

  24. Wiiiii! on The Latest From the Front in the Console Wars · · Score: 2, Interesting

    the race for console dominance is still anyone's to win

    I disagree.

  25. Fireworks on NASA Knows How To Party · · Score: 0, Troll

    NASA has the best fireworks.
