And once again Slashdotters manage to downmod someone without any valid reason whatsoever. I think it's baffling that 99,9% of the people on a computer technology site have no idea what a "flame" or "troll" is. I don't know, I guess most people here are 12 years old and thus not sufficiently aware of Internet culture.
Yes, because at this moment it's notpossibleto createfree music. We totally need a network for that sort of stuff, which will also somehow solve the problem of Internet radio dying.
I never thought the race-war bozos would make it onto/.
And once again Slashdotters manage to create accusations of racism out of thin air. It's amazing.
See? Hmmm... seems plausible. But think: Maybe I'm different based on the country I was born in, the way my parents fed me, raised me (the fact that I had loving parents), their wealth and social connections, the forces and choices that formed my personality. My education, the books I read, what I chose to study, my teachers and role models, how hard I worked at it, how well I networked, the career and jobs I chose, the person I married, the city I live in... Where does this genetic optimization come in?
As we all know, humans are incorporeal entities that are entirely constructed from culture. Biology? What's that?
The fact remains that any deviation from leftist-liberal dogma will result in lost karma on Slashdot. Also, anything that's simply politically incorrect or makes too much sense will usually get you downmodded too.
Slashdot is generally pretty right-libertarian leaning. Hardly 80% strongly liberal.
I want to have whatever it is that you're smoking/injecting/snorting. If you say anything on Slashdot that does not strictly adhere to liberal-leftist religious dogma, you get modded down. Simple as that.
Deep and satisfying story? Bah. Some key moments were good, such as when you decide on the fate of the guy you're chasing, but the vast majority of the time there isn't even any story going on, you're just driving around and doing random missions for gangsters for no apparent reason (what does Niko do with all that money that he so desperately claims to need?). The actual story appears so infrequently that you sometimes forget it's even there.
What an amazingly stupid question they managed to ask. I can't immediately think of anything specific, but I'm sure you could go back all the way to the eighties and find lots of games with branching storylines. In the nineties you'll of course find such classics as Fallout which provide you with a bit more than just a couple of decisions. Gamers have incredibly short memories.
I guess it would be sort of cool, but it would never lead to any truly meaningful story telling. The industry is still, after all these years, cautiously poking at the tip of the iceberg when it comes to normal story telling, so I don't think they'd do a very good job with dynamically generated stories. Video games could do a lot that film and literature can't, but is anyone exploring those possibilities? Probably not. So let's not start running towards the next best thing just yet.
OK then you racist, authoritarian tosser, let me tear apart your idiotic rambling
Where did he say anything racist?
4. Shut the fuck up you BNP loving organ of the police state, and have some respect for an innocent victim of extreme police brutality.
Where did he express support for the BNP?
Scum like you make me ashamed of Britian.
Well, it's mainly morons like you who are the problem. You respond to everything with hysterical knee-jerk reactions and throw around blind, random accusations like confetti.
It actually has nothing to do with the police itself. Give certain people power and they'll abuse the shit out of it. Just look at Slashdotters with mod points, or go to pretty much any web forum. Most people can't handle even a trivial, almost non-existent amount of power in a responsible manner, let alone the kind of power they get as police officers.
Why am I being modded troll again and again? I'm not the one making blanket statements. I'm not the one accusing complete strangers of things they haven't done, aren't doing and will not do.
Learn what the fuck "troll" means you stupid assholes. I'm sick of your laziness and inability to look up something from Wikipedia. Do you need someone to come over to your house an draw a fucking diagram? I mean what the fuck. How hard can it be to check the definition of a word on the Internet? How do you even survive daily life if you can't manage that much? What are you doing on Slashdot? Jesus pissing Christ.
And you're not being a troll by projecting your personal issues on every single person on the planet? Just because you're a weak, corrupt asshole doesn't mean everyone is.

Prove it.
Oh, wait, you can't.
Yes, there's no doubt that the US will invade and occupy any country that continues to operate Internet radio stations.
Jesus fucking Christ.
Yes, because at this moment it's not possible to create free music. We totally need a network for that sort of stuff, which will also somehow solve the problem of Internet radio dying.
What the hell are you talking about? Are you even replying to the right post?
I'd love to know how you managed to get modded troll.

Hell yeah, man.
I already did. He's frothing at the mouth and accusing the guy of being a racist BNP supporter for no apparent reason.
You can be outraged and still remain rational. You did not remain rational.
Where did he say anything racist?
Where did he express support for the BNP?

No, it isn't.
And someone might say "it's over 9000" without referencing the meme, but who in their right mind would believe them?
"LOL I spilled my coffee!"
"LOL I almost spilled my coffee!"
"LOL I need a new keyboard now!"
That meme. It's getting really old.
Yes, you and everyone else and their dogs. Ha ha, we get it.
This meme is getting really old.
The people will gladly accept anything the government can think of, no matter how stupid or offensive.

Finland is third? I have 512/512 because that's all I can afford, and I live in a city. 20 mbps sure as fuck isn't the average speed over here.
