  1. Re:They know the system is coming down on CCIA Calls Copyright Wiretaps 'Hollywood's PATRIOT Act' · · Score: 1

    To be honest, within the next hundred years I'm expecting the USA will have another revolution, at least if this shit keeps up.

  2. Re:Unbreakable? on PS3 Hacker Claims He's Jailbroken 3.60 Firmware · · Score: 2

    That is the entire point of hacking in general, to satisfy curiosity. At least true hacking.

    while some of his views are rather....unorthodox...and i do not agree with the ones you specifically mentioned....in the end...how many presidents or candidates have put their money where their mouth is as much as he has.

    i voted ron paul. not all politicians suck. just the ones that have the charisma to make idiots believe they will do something different.

    if YOU have good enough charisma to get voted in by a large majority of an entire country, then do run. we will vote for you...though chances are you like many others wouldnt refuse a large check from lobbyists... practice what you preach.

  5. ...really.. on What Pi Sounds Like · · Score: 1

    I'm not saying it's as good as Lady Gaga or Justin Bieber or something

    And I am not saying this is news...when did slashdot become blogger...

  6. hmm I can see the point, but then again... on Study Shows Technology May Inhibit Good Sleep · · Score: 1

    I am CONSTANTLY fixing my sleep schedule, I have taken numerous different sleeping medications, but to be honest no matter what even after a ton of melatonin, i am still up and online, I know it has to do with having so much information so readily available, but it also probably has another type of sleeping disorder.

    TL;DR There are too many factors.

  7. sigh on Final Fantasy XIII-2 Announced · · Score: 1

    seems to me like after FFX final fantasy has just become a complete sellout....i use to get excited when a new final fantasy was coming out....not in a long time...

  8. what about those of us that just dont care? on Doubling of CO2 Not So Tragic After All? · · Score: 1

    i dont understand why people are considered "green or not" and not includes skeptics and disbelievers.....what about people like me? people who dont really care, being that this wont affect me in my lifetime give me 1 reason why i should care(and no not FOR THE CHILDREN, im not a politician.)

    Also this is not flamebait or a troll, i honestly just want to know why people care so much

    if we fuck up the earth bad enough itll bite back and fuck us up.

    and the world goes on.

    let people be stupid, if they dont notice something extreme changing, then let natural selection take its course.

    plus i would pay money to see a vegan in an ice age.

  9. Re:Age and other duties. on Have I Lost My Gaming Mojo? · · Score: 1

    Back when i played counter strike(like 6 years ago...), i had an older gentleman in my clan...at the ripe old age of 63. And my god was he a redneck. He played with his grandkids, and to be honest was one of the best counter strike players i have played with, i think i was like 18 or so, and this guy could turn and shoot me in the head before I had the chance to get my bearings...and then hed laugh and you could hear his 10 year old grandkids in the background going "nice shot gramps".

    If anything, at 60 your more desensitized to loud noises and can concentrate better. which to be honest slow and methodical is a much better way to play fps's, Twitch shooting doesn't reward nearly as much as a single precise shot to the skull.

    honestly the biggest problem i had was how when someone would throw a grenade or something next to me id twitch and sidestep, and inevitably run into a wall or fuck up somehow, i tried going back to counter strike fairly recently(old friend invited me for a game, so i joined for a few rounds before i got bored and logged) and i noticed how much slower i played....i also went 55-3 k/d. after not playing for 6 years. when the best i used to be able to do was 40-3. Although i also learned the trick of not constantly pressing taband trying to get that top spot also helped.

    anyways back on topic of being an old time fpser.

    You will get trampled on until you learn the maps/common player strategies, after that if your not top of the board, then put on your glasses and you will be.

    Diriculous came from the rescrambling of the word ridiculous. It is defined as something which is completely absurd and plain stupid. Just from looking at it you would know it was silly.

    let me fix his post for you. that advertising company has gone out of its way so that you are *not* viewing horrifyingly bright and loud flash ad's while browsing, as well as offering a myriad of free services, and supporting OSS software, which has taken a bite out of M$'s share. he was talking about google to any other platform...not windows to mac(lols as if.) or mac to windows(easy.)
