All you used to complain about was crashing. Now that crashing's over, you've moved on to more sophisticated arguements and justifications to being a "fan-boy"
Since when were political actions based on the question of "violating basic human rights"?
I don't think any political power in the world cares whether or not another violates basic human rights. That didn't drive Americans to invade Iraq, and especially didn't drive Americans to do anything (because they haven't) about genocides around the world (including Sudan).
Do you own the rights to have it published or will Microsoft just pay you royalties (that probably wouldn't make you back your $99 either).
I'd never subject Blob and Conquer to this.
Maybe you should read the article before jumping to conclusions.
Microsoft would regulate the content for appropriateness and intellectual property issues, but users would own their work, Mr Moore said.
On price alone, I think Nintendo's going to do well. I'm not a console-gamer, but if I chose to get into console gaming, I'd go with a Wii I think. After all, I already have an incredibly expensive box full of hardware for super-pretty games: my desktop!
You just erased all credibility you had at the onset of your comment. I mean, you destroyed your own argument. You aren't something but IF you were, you'd do something. But you aren't something so what do we care if you WOULD do something that you would never end up doing, not being what you aren't.
I'm sorry, if you were offended.
Aren't conditionals a great way to say what you mean by getting out of saying what you don't mean because you never meant it in the first place?
It's just a programmable korean robot that some guy programmed the motions to pour beer, he put a bottle in between the hands of the robot, it spilled quite a bit of beer, and he didn't even take a video of it. I could've staged that in like two seconds with a lego mindstorm kit during the 11th grade in my AP C++ class.
The difference between the insult and the fact lies in whether or not a person believes that they are knowledgable or not.
Example: I talk about a car's fuel system. Someone tells me I'm wrong, and I'm ignorant. Thus, it is an insult. Otherwise, if I didn't talk about it. And I simply admitted I was ignorant, of course, it remains a fact.
The end result is cars with equal performance being more economical (in MPG therms) in Europe then in the US. Sure, the rich guys still get their Hummers and Ferraris but (unfortunally for the enviroment) it's their liberty.
- end the war in Iraq to free up the funds for the above initiatives
I'm not so sure many people in the government right now (this isn't my personal opinion) are willing to stop a war in Iraq to start another on global warming. There are two threats, I know, but I think for some reason... One's more iminent than the other... (not going to name which).
So why persue science and medicine at all? why make discoveries? why create art? why listen to music? why start a family? Why not just spend our entire lives cloistered and worshipping this divine being who gives our life its only true meaning?
Indeed, why live at all?
What is our place in the universe?
You're just asking questions that have been asked from the beginning, religion or no religion, you're asking unanswerable questions. So what?
Easy. There's two of them. They each want to be billionaires, and on that Fortune list of 750 Richest Americans or whatever. $750 Million, split in two, isn't as nice as an instant spot on the world's Billionaire list (a very exclusive list, indeed). They want to be the next Larry Page and Sergey Brin, although I don't think Facebook is nearly as neat idea as Google...
You do forget that these so called "groups" above-average or otherwise are "groups" created arbiltraily by man and defined by things out of our control. So what if my dad was born in Mexico, you're going to group me with every other dad born in Mexico and then try to categorize us in a bell curve and see where I fall (or don't fall)?
Great. So... What's the point? Really. These groups are just badly drawn boundries.
Libraries? You guys are all just nerds. Of course, normal people watch movies in theaters. Elsewise is there so much money being spent on movies? Maybe not made, but spent. And you guys talk about libraries as if they were a norm. Not every neighborhood has a nice, well funded library. But I'll tell you this, every neighborhood has a movie theater with at least 10 screens.

It's funny though,
All you used to complain about was crashing. Now that crashing's over, you've moved on to more sophisticated arguements and justifications to being a "fan-boy"
Hrm.
But if you're a child molester, I guess this isn't so true.

A 1500 out of a 2400?
Have you seen the SAT lately? That's a horrible score.
How are you so sure of the parent's intent? All he did was quote the Bible.

Is this really news
When was the last time you saw news on Slashdot?
Stupidity overruling their lack of honesty? What does that mean?
Anyways, you made no sense. But, dishonesty (a better term, by the way) and stupidity do have a slight correlation.
(He gets modded up? He can't even spell people, let alone make sense.)
Why are you bringing this up? Just the obligatory nerd (filled with technical jargon) comment?
I doubt this guy even formatted his computer.
Why did this make the frontpage of slashdot?

Apparently, everyone in America is a rich guy.

How did they arrive at 2 billion?
Easy. There's two of them. They each want to be billionaires, and on that Fortune list of 750 Richest Americans or whatever. $750 Million, split in two, isn't as nice as an instant spot on the world's Billionaire list (a very exclusive list, indeed).

I'd be willing to pay more for a gaming console if I had control to produce my own content [e.g. programs, games, whatever].
You and what army?
Males have weiners. Women don't.
Can you tell me what Asians have that Whites or Blacks don't?

It's been a while since a film warranted spending the money to watch it in a room full of strangers.
Since when did whether or not a room was filled with strangers have anything to do with whether or not you watched a movie? Weirdo.

Microsoft != Bungie
Hate Microsoft, ok that's cool. But hate Bungie? No. Never. You can't possibly hate Bungie if you call yourself a nerd.
Alexander the great and Napolean are the two great conquorers in the history of the world. Yes there are others but nobody comes close to these two.
You don't know much about history do you?

Uhm, King Tut died a long time ago... A really, really long time ago...
