  1. Re:What? on LucasArts Embargoes "Clone Wars" Reviews · · Score: 1

    Can anyone straighten this out... Its commonly agreed (I think) that Ewoks live on 'The Forest Moon of Endor', but is the moon actually called Endor, or does this forest moon actually orbit the planet Endor? It may sound trivial but I've thought about it on and off for about 20 years :-) Anyone??

  2. Car Park Folly on What Examples of Security Theater Have You Encountered? · · Score: 1

    My company had a problem with people from other companies parking in our car park, meaning there wasnt enough spaces for our employees. Their solution? Make everyone who works here register their vehicle details with reception, and provide everyone with badges to display in their car window. The problem? Nobody patrols the car park to check the badges, so the people who illegally parked before are still doing it, meanwhile we jump through hoops for no reason.

  3. Re:Where have I seen this before? on Internet Tax Imminent? · · Score: 5, Funny

    Never mind taxing "the internet" - They should start taxing Slashdot editors for each dupe story.

    Several friends of mine are dedicated Sony fans
    A corporation is not something that should attract 'fans'. A football team might, or maybe a band or something, but a faceless corporation? Get some new friends dude!
  5. Re:OK, got it now on U.S. Cities Don't Make the Intelligence Cut · · Score: 1

    I was born and raised in Sunderland, I was at school in the 80s when the shipyards and the coal mines were closing I saw a lot of depravation and the hardships that working class people faced under the thatcher government. Then I studied IT at a local college, went to Sunderland University and got a degree in IT, now I work for one of the companies mentioned on the list in that article. I really thought there was no hope for us back then. It makes me very proud of Sunderland that things have turned around,

    Now lets see about increasing that H1B visa quota
    What the hell have pencils got to do with it??!!
  7. Re:Still can't find a Wii though... on New PS3, Wii, 360 Downloadables Announced · · Score: 1

    Why not just give it a few days/weeks and try again, or look around online for one. Not having this console for a week or 2 isnt going to kill anyone, and is it really worth spending a night on the street?
