  1. Re:Misguided or simply lazy on 30 Days With Ubuntu Linux · · Score: 1

    But then you are saying that PC's are only good for running statistical / design / math / unix / hard to run stuff. Many people have goals that involve an application / media that will only run on windows (currently). That is the primary problem IMHO. Theres no need to say go play on a console, as it has no bearing on the topic.

  2. Re:I much prefer... on Apple Turning Cell Phone Market Upside Down? · · Score: 1

    damn... there goes amateur radio phone sex.. :D

  3. *cross fingers* come on slashdot effect! on CERTStation Threat-Level Aggregator · · Score: 1

    Seriously thats an fugly page, all the flash is just gonna bog it down when the thousands pour in to look at it. Maybe they should streamline it more if they need all that flashy stuff.

  4. Re:Taxes suck, but why not? on Taxing Virtual Gaming Assets · · Score: 1
    The government doesn't run the country, the people do.
    Then what is the point of electing them in the first place if 'we' run the country? And I don't see why American's are so bent on guns, and having them = Power(TM). I don't think they will tax virtual environments, this will create unnecessary taxation loopholes, etc that will just end up being exploited by people with the knowhow to pull it off.
  5. New features.. wooo on The MySpace Ecosystem · · Score: 2, Interesting

    Wow thats great, maybe someone might actually come up with a page design application that doesn't have flashing gifs, multiple videos, tacky backgrounds for my(crap)space. I don't understand why everyone on myspace must design their page like something out of the 1990's with as many flashing images and crap as possible.. Just to annoy you.

  6. Pr0nographic... on Music Industry Prepares to Sue Yahoo China · · Score: 1
    Is it just me or does anyone else always read International Federation of the Phonographic Industries (IFPI) as
    International Federation of the Pornographic Industries (IFPI)
    Hehe.. guess its just me..
  7. Re:Phew... on RIAA Claims P2P Has Been Contained · · Score: 1

    Amen! Now we can go about our downloading business knowing that its 'flat' and that we are no LONGER costing the RIAA / MIAA MILLIONS (muahahaha!) of dollars in fictional losses.

  8. Hmm thats not a shield its a spacestation!!! on New Crater On Moon Caught On Video · · Score: 1

    That is actually pretty interesting "Trophy", I love the 'minimal collateral damage' point on that video, makes me want to be there when some guy is selling it to the military etc. :P

  9. Re:Ha on Fortune Magazine Profiles MySQL AB · · Score: 1


    I'd also agree, most people are lazy and greedy, especially the ones I've met climbing the ladders in the corporate world. I was just discussing with a friend of mine, if it wasn't for the people below, the people on top would be lost & confused on a daily basis even with things like checking their email :P

  10. yes.. quite the model company on Fortune Magazine Profiles MySQL AB · · Score: 1
    MySQL's Mickos says, "Avoid young men without a wife or girlfriend or dog or parents."

    Wouldn't that exclude most of /. readers? too? hehe
    "We have people with lots of tattoos," notes Widenius. "Some of them I would not like to be with in the office every day."

    They really seem to like their workers spread out don't they?
  11. Its funny they pick on GTA but SIMS online is .... on In Defense of Games · · Score: 1

    just as bad if not worse, I remember reading articles that delt with the rampant sex trade on Sims Online (I haven't kept up with it latley) but that basically became some kind of extortion scheme. Where n00bie sims players would be put into a jail, so their character couldn't get out, unless they paid the house owner money. Either way, games are made to be a source of entertainment, wether good or bad. I think the article is one of the positives I've seen in a wave of negative tones in the US aimed at gamers / gamers.

  12. Re:BAD name on ThePirateBay Will Rise Again? · · Score: 1

    Whats wrong with 'Pirate Bay' ? They were never saying 'Na Na Na', they were saying they are a search engine, and plus under Swedish law, they didn't do anything wrong. I fail to see any merit to your comment other than to be flamebait.
