You are a moron if you don't realize, that there are music clips out there that can easily count as art. Nobody in their right mind watches music videos because they want to listen to music. They watch music videos to be entertained.
Slashdot editors should have to take a grammar test before being allowed to access the site. Or maybe a test if they're drunk, very much like this test.
That might all be well and true, but if you read the post I was replying to again you will see that all I did was counter the OP's "The console is about as cheap as they get" argument.
I know there is no reason for Nintendo to dop the price, as it would undermine the "exclusiveness" of the Wii.
Yes, you can. You will need to make use of the Twilight Hack, so you definitely need Twilight Princess if you don't own a modchip. It's ok if you borrow it for an hour or so, you just need it to get your foot in the door.
The console is about as cheap as they get, and Nintendo put an incredible amount of research and effort into making the best games in the world. When do you folk feel a bit ethically obliged to let the company just make some money out of the good work they've done.
Err, I really like Nintendo, I really like the Wii, and I'd really like some of what you were smoking. 1) The console price hasn't gone down AT ALL since it was released almost two years ago. Compare that to the prices of the PS3 or Xbox360 during the same timeframe. Also compare it to the fact that the Xbox360 is now way cheaper than the Wii while being much, much faster.
2) The last few months there were nothing but half-assed games coming out for the Wii, especially from Nintendo. I don't see "the best games in the world" anymore, anywhere. Think back to the last Nintendo press conference and tell me you were really positively surprised with what they came up with.
3) The Homebrew Channel can do a lot, but what it can't do is play Wii games off of burned discs. You still need a modchip for that. You can play copied WiiWare games, but team Twiizers officially denounces warez. They're doing it to open up the platform itself, not to open it up for the warez kids.
I never said I could. But if it can be done with the Home Brew Channel, it could also be done with the vanilla Wii itself. Missing SDHC support is not a hardware limitation (as we can see now), it's merely the unwillingness of Nintendo.
The biggest news out of the whole thing for me is that they have added SDHC support through a _channel_ in the Wii dashboard. People have been speculating why the Wii would not support SDHC and if it was some hardware limitation...well, it seems like it isn't. Which really makes me wonder why Nintendo has not added it, yet...in this day and age it's almost getting hard to find a non-SDHC card...
Seriously...WTF. This isn't the first time some 3rd party tool squeezes more functionality out of hardware. But this should really be a no-brainer to implement for the big N.
4. All games are Vista and XP compatible. Thanks to our handsome programming team, the classics are now Windows Vista and Windows XP compatible. Now you can use your lightning-fast PC to unleash the full potential of those games you just couldnâ(TM)t play properly on that busted old 386.

Sure, live the dirty live, but watch your filthy mouth.
This will blow your mind, but there are no Matrix sequels...
Don't we all wish that were true...
I call dibs on omg.wtf!

You could increase security for that town, essentially making everyone living elsewhere a second-class citizen.

They apparently all run under XP and Vista:

that's supposed to read "180 degrees"
I'd be all for a TV program that could cure stupidity, but that would be something like 180Â turnaround.
So what you're saying is "In Soviet America the joke's on you"?
That's not fair, stop mocking the String Theorists. :)
You probably need to get yourself an extra few dimensions to make 3 particles collide exactly head-on.
Guess that one was misleading.
My head explodes at the sheer number of possible meta-jokes hidden here...
[...] they all cite the same source: Nikkei Business Daily. No one has yet independently confirmed this. So take it with a very large grain of salt.
Or considering the source maybe even a grain of rice.
Here is not a comprehensive list of those programmers, but at least a comprehensive list of their collective works:

Why would I want to run OSX on my PC? And why would I have to to run any Adobe software?
[and a clonedome You know, 1 will enter 2 will leave]
Lol, thanks for the laugh. :)
You do realize that for less than half that sum you can get a PC with an up-to-date graphics card that will also easily run the Adobe Suite?
