I've actually heard a lot of complaints about this recently. Everbody is in such a tizzy to get their CDs louder than everybody else's they compress the shit out of it. Gotta love clipping.
About a year ago, I was in college full time, worked 40 hours a week, and was in two bands. I still prefered games that were more in depth, and had progessive difficulty than casual, coddling games, even though it took me longer to beat them. I guess it's a matter of ambition.
Do you like to take short walks in the park, or do you like to climb mountains?
Or do you like to take short walks and say you climb mountains?
Yeah, right. Selling 6 millions PS3s would only cement sony's position in the video game industry. It'd give them a huge market, and would have developers lining up, purchasing *gasp* dev kits, and of course, licences to produce games. Big Name Games, and hell, sony'd make cash of the turdz as well. That's why they're selling it at a loss. I thought this was the basis of console strategy for a long time? (well, minus nintendo, but they're way out in left field anyway)
The only thing worse than your logic is your manners. I have snipped
away most of your of what you wrote, because, well... it didn't
really say anything. Your attempt at constructing a creative flame was
pitiful. I mean, really, stringing together a bunch of insults among a
load of babbling was hardly effective... Maybe later in life, after
you have learned to read, write, spell, and count, you will have more
success. True, these are rudimentary skills that many of us "normal"
people take for granted that everyone has an easy time of mastering.
But we sometimes forget that there are "challenged" persons in this
world who find these things to be difficult. If I had known that this
was true in your case then I would have never have exposed myself to
what you wrote. It just wouldn't have been "right." Sort of like
parking in a handicap space. I wish you the best of luck in the
emotional, and social struggles that seem to be placing such a
demand on you.
The fact that more than half of engineering students admit to cheating should be more than a bit disturbing, if they are cheating in their engineering classes. I don't want to go through a tunnel or over a bridge that was designed by one of these folks.

My friends X-Box would frequently display an odd "loading" screen in halo, yet on mine, with the same disk, nothing. This happened whether or not it was the last game played.
This is if our X-Boxes would even run at all. Some times, after purchasing a shiny BRAND NEW xbox game we would get a "disk not recognizable" screen, and one would have to reset it, sometimes several times, to work. Once, mine stopped working for almost two weeks. The light turned red, and it wouldn't even display picture. I hesitated sending it back, because I heard stories of people getting charged for the repairs, and to pay SHIPPING for the beast to get there would be bad enough. I just hoped it'd start working again (it did, and I never have had a similiar problem).
It's not that I hate the x-box, it's just that they're finicky beasts. I've had my x-box not be able to play the hot new game that came out yesterday.
2. Every game is guaranteed to work. Ever try to convince that pimply-faced teenager at the game store that your computer won't run that hot new game you bought yesterday? He doesn't care. "Read the friggin' box," is what he'll say. "No returns on opened PC games." This won't happen in the console realm. If you own "system X" every game made for it will perform the same way. Guaranteed.
I am in charge of ordering for a mid-sized company located on the west coast. Earlier this week the head of the productivity deparment approached me, and informed me that we would issuing portable sound-file players to employees that would have compressed versions of meetings and company lectures downloaded on them so employees who otherwise would miss out on these, or when scheduling them would cause conflicts. Some personal use would be allowed, as studies have shown this increases moral and therefore productivity.
Now, when I looked into portable audio playing technologies, I check into apple first, due to the buzz about them, and I thought their progressive image would mesh well with our company. I was let down when I discovered that not only would the Ipod not play "OGG" soundfiles (which our meetings are "encoded" in), that the only thing it could play were files that were downloaded from apple's internet music store.
I think this is a very foolhardy decision from apple. If apple wants to stay competitive in today's buisness driven market they need to be more willing to work progressively with corporate entities, much like companies like IBM, who we've worked with in the past, and have demonstrated admirable corporate synergy.
Shut the fuck up. Have you ever heard of Internet? Well, that's what you're fucking up with your retarded jokes.
Internet is serious buisness. SERIOUS FUCKING BUISNESS, and I don't need you fucking around on it, so do us all a favor and turn your computer off so the rest of us can get back to making money. SERIOUS MONEY.
I like to keep it real. If I want to post a troll, I do. I don't really see any good reason to AC myself to post something, but I have two huge reasons not to. They're called balls.
It is interesting how the nick affects moderation, though. (the sig has some effect, as well)
Well, the thing is, this might not be that time efficient either. If I can go buy a movie at a store for the same price as it costs online, and I can get to the store, buy it, and come home before it would of finished downloading, that certainly lessens the appeal.

I think this is the first time I've laughed so hard at while on slashdot.
Oh wow! Why didn't the Sony Marketing Division consult you first?
Sorry, man. Looks like you got modded "-1 a redundant".

Studies show you just got pwned, biznatch!
WINNER IS YOU!
