Backslash comments are always either bitching about the Backslash feature, or rehashing the same old arguments from the previous day's posts.
Techinically, aren't we at the point where bitching about Backslsh is really just rehashing arguments from the last Backslash? (Besides, I thought Backslash was all about rehashing)
tell me how one's fond recollections of videogame playing--with brothers, sisters, neighborhood friends--are different from your grandparent's stories of fort building and crayfish hunting?
My grandparents had to do it in foot deep snow, uphill, both ways.
You know what would be crazy! What if they made a pen-and-paper ruleset for WoW. It's almost like Blizzard is milking the Warcraft universe for all its cash. (Now if only the bastards would do this with Starcraft!)
1. Make a succseful game. 2. Make spin off products like roleplaying games, board games, CCGs, T-Shirts (Blizzard is guilty on all accounts) 3. ????? 4. MORE PROFIT! (Note, should steps 3 or 4 fail to occur, it is suggested that you discontinue that product line.)
Nope. MPAA and ESRB ratings are both voluntary which is not to say the don't carry some amount of weight since they are both accepted industry standards that are usually (although not because of any legal threat) enforced by the content distributors (Walmart and movie theatres in this example).
Backslash: Will Pretty PCs Make Vista More Attractive.
Read on for today's Slashback summary
Wait is this a Backslash or a Slashback? I thought Slashbacks were minor stories and updates. Obviously the number of sections abusing the word 'Slash' are not confusing enough. To rectify this issue, I propose a new section known as 'Slashwrists' which will contain emo blogs along with any the new MySpace stories.
So apparently Zango makes some crappy adware toolbars. Then they get video's to link back to the Zango website and bring up installers when they try to play. Webmasters can sign up and push Zango crapware in return for $$$s per install.
This is where that mangled piece of English in the summary comes in. That piece is from an email where Zango reveals there evil scheme to the Zango pushing legions. In the email, Zango tells its associates to target kids and make it easy to embed Zango vids in their MySpace profiles. Then all their friends come, have the installer pop up, and let it through so they can see the cool new video.
There, just in case you were confused after trying to read only the summary like I was.
Profiles named Zango were found on MySpace and Zango later admitted an employee created the profiles and said it was a "mistake".
See... it was all just an honest mistake. You know we have all accidently tried to force feed people adware at one time or another, it's a natural human thing to do.
So once again this will do nothing towards preventing terrorism, but everything to alienate The People.
Oh, ha ha ha ha! You thought they were REALLY trying to stop terrorism. Oh, bwuahaha, that's a good one! I'm in tears. Hey, hey Bob! Come over here and look a this, it's hilarious!
I may (or may not, although all signs point to 'may') have forgotten to add the ending to verr- which would make it verrai for the purposes of the post. Verr being the irregular future simple stem of the verb voir. I also think that there is a strong likelyhood that I put the French words out of order. To redeem my poor French I hereby submit this correction.
Déjà Verrai: The feeling this is not the last time you will undergo this experience.
Actually, the French for 'Will See Again Tommorow' is something like 'Vais Voir Deja Demain' or 'Verr Deja Demain'
or of course you could 'Read' the article tommorow which would be 'Vais Lire Deja Demain, or 'Lirai Deja Demain'
Of all of them, I think Verr Deja sounds the best. It is that feeling that you will have this same experience in the future. This can be applied to experiences like reading a post welcoming our new Overlords on/. at work or wanking off in front of your computerat home.

I montion that we rename Uranus once and for all to stop all these bad jokes.
My suggested name is 'Urectum'

They are embracing new technology and trying new distribution methods, good for them.

The real question is, "How do I do windmills with my keyboard?"
Perhaps it wold work if you picked your keyboard up and held it like a guitar. (Warning: This may get you strange looks.)
no rootkits?
I'm still amazed to find 'readable' and 'regular expressions' in the same context.

So... This would be a multiplayer game then?

Security holes were found. Security holes were fixed. I don't see a lack of attention to security.

I think the tinfoil hat is on a little too tight.

Remember, French can be fun!(TM)
I think these guys are spending too much time looking for possible terrorists and not enough time on the real threats.
Like snakes.
What I'm really scared of is mothaf*cking snakes on mothaf*cking planes!
At University of Washington in the CS building they have huge whiteboards on every floor and several rooms which have whiteboards for walls.
It's enough to make a man weep with happiness.
Look, if I argue with you, I must take up a contrary position.
It's probably cause blogs function a lot like diaries for most people, but they don't feel as silly.
Oh, sorry, I thought this was the forum for arguments.
