  1. Re:Wii for handicapped gamers? on Wii-mote In Action · · Score: 1

    Who blew you this morning?

    why dont you just ignore comments that dont interest you, instead of just being a cock to people.

  2. Re:Wii for handicapped gamers? on Wii-mote In Action · · Score: 1

    He didnt get into a "huff" over it, he simply stated it will not work for some people and that he would be evaluating the two alternatives instead.

    Way to be a dick.

  3. Profiting from rape on Teen Sues MySpace Over Sexual Assault · · Score: 1

    Wow, what great parents, they are trying to profit from their daughters rape.

  4. Re:BT Client sucks on Opera 9.0 Released · · Score: 1

    Joe average certainly does care when their upstream is maxed out, manifesting itself in "hey what the hell is wrong with the internet, i cant go anywheres"

    Oh, and since when is Joe average even using Opera. Not everything is intended for that group of people.

  5. Re:Chinese Education Reforms & Conundrum on Chinese Students' Cheating Techniques - Don't Try at Home · · Score: 1

    Not to mention those are not the people having problems getting into school, but rather China's epxanding middle class.

    What is it with people, they always have this desire to relate everything to the poorest of the poor and not the rest of the population.

    "well this group makes a nickle a year and eats dirt, they cant afford that..." when obviously that group has nothing to do with the problem being discussed.

  6. Re:wikipedia!=encyclopedia on A Look at the Editorial Changes on Wikipedia · · Score: 1

    Always,

    personally I would have just told you to fuck off and left the conversation regardless of who was right. Being a jackass has no place in normal debates.

  7. Re:Very dangerous precedent on GoDaddy Holds Domains Hostage · · Score: 1

    It isnt the registars job function to stop crime like that.

  8. Re:$9.99 Still Too High on Hollywood Against Jobs' Movie Pricing Plan · · Score: 1

    $25 or more?

    Lies

  9. Re:module shotguns on Linux 2.6.17 Released · · Score: 1

    Too bad for people still using ISA i guess

  10. Re:So, what about online retailers? on Jack Thompson's Violent Game Bill Signed Into Law · · Score: 1

    Those major online retailers should just threaten to not sell anything to anyone in that state... I think the general public would be pretty pissed off and that would be the end of the idiotic law.

  11. Re:VHS Still on the Shelves on Blu-Ray Launch Expected Next Week · · Score: 1

    If by on the shelf you mean put in the corner and ignored without many new releases.
    and if by just getting acceptance you mean fighting over them at walmart...
    then you would be correct.

    people are used to DVD, it is accepted, it is the standard and will be for a long time. The adoption will be much worse the new hidef stuff but DVD has been THE standard for awhile, 2-3 years ago might as well have been a decade in adoption.

  12. Re:Cant we just execute people on Procurement Fraud in the IT Sector · · Score: 1

    Pushing an agenda still requires some form of approval, and in each of those cases, consent by the nation was given, unfortunately.

  13. Meanwhile... on Microsoft Says Vista Most Secure OS Ever · · Score: 3, Insightful

    Those blackhats are just making notes of the real vulnerabilities while reporting simple superficial ones.

  14. Cant we just execute people on Procurement Fraud in the IT Sector · · Score: 1

    that scam others in wake of a national tragedy. Those people that claimed they died in 9/11, the people that scammed 1.5 billion from the hurricane. Hell, the politicians that claimed they needed hurricane money in Utah.

  15. Re:Culprit on How iTunes Hurts Weird Al · · Score: 1

    He would be committing copyright infringement then, he does not own those works anymore, the contract made them property of the label if he were to take previous recording.

    If he were to start from scratch, well itunes doesnt want to deal with him.

  16. Re:Global Cooling on Arctic Sea Level Falling? · · Score: 1, Informative

    but but but Gore is an environmentalist.

    err, I suppose that should be in quotes.

    Seriously cant that guy just go back to spain or wherever the hell he disappeared to after losing in 2000.

  17. Re:You had the head on its nail on 3D Realms Won't Rush Duke Nukem Forever · · Score: 1

    They dont have investors so it isnt a big deal.

  18. Re:Game industry is funny on World of Starcraft? Not So Much · · Score: 1

    There seems to be a trend lately...articles from blog postings based on an IRC chat that was....
    All of these "articles" have a common theme, they are in the form of a question. The answer is almost always no but they keep coming and mostly are just stupid to begin with. The google and Apple ones are generally the most stupid and seemingly prevalent.

  19. Rush? I dont think a decade is considering rushing on 3D Realms Won't Rush Duke Nukem Forever · · Score: 1

    Why dont they just give up at this point...

  20. Theo should never talk on Hifn Restricts Crypto Docs, OpenBSD Opens Fire · · Score: 3, Insightful

    in a form that will be made public. They need a PR person.

    He is right in principal in many cases, however he has absolutely no talent when it comes to voicing that principal. OpenBSD seriously need a PR person that knows how to deal with actual people, you know with a hint of tact, cause he doesnt have any whatsoever.

  21. Re:Neo-cons co-opted terms like Christian & Li on Christian Science Monitor Putting OSS at the Helm · · Score: 1

    Actually that article is well written and doesnt have much bias with good quotes from both sides and examines the issue. It basically is looking at the legal side of the issue and even goes so far as to say it probably wouldnt hold up.

  22. Re:Neo-cons co-opted terms like Christian & Li on Christian Science Monitor Putting OSS at the Helm · · Score: 2, Interesting

    Exactly. For research papers the first time I read an article from their website I saw it was the Christian Science Monitor and wasnt sure about it. Then I verified the facts and realized it was the best article I had. There was a continous theme in papers I worked on, the CSM was always very well written and extremely accurate and a great resource. The name throws you at first but in reality it is a great respectable place for real journalism.

  23. Re:Poor solution on Hawking Says Humans Must Go Into Space · · Score: 1

    Cause we all know easterners dont have that problem at all.........

  24. Well when only one side is attacking on Microsoft Calls for Truce With GPL and Linux? · · Score: 1

    it really isnt necessary for a "truce" to be called, just for the one side to stop attacking.

    The GPL and greater OSS community likes OSS products and wants to use them. This is generally at the expense of Microsoft since they are dominate. I dont really call that an "attack." Maybe MS should stop spreading blatant lies and there wont be a problem.

  25. Re:Some things that will help on How Nintendo Could Win It All · · Score: 1

    Seriously, I dont think anyone cares about dvd playback anymore. Sure it was nice with the xbox, but hell by that time dvd players were becoming so cheap it was not a big deal
