  1. Re:cluster on PS3 Problems Cause Sony Stocks to Slide · · Score: 0

    You found out where all the Ps2 HDD's went to! Yay!

  2. I wonder on Public Betas For CrossOver Mac and Linux · · Score: 0
    if it's just the Valve games?
    For instance, would Ritual's Sin: Emergence work with this? Sin uses the same gameplay physics and engine as HL2 as far as I know... How about HL2 Episode one? And why only Steam/Valve games?

    I see WoW, but that's about as entertaining as watching the State of the Union address...
    Come on. It's Slashdot.

  3. Re:Slashdot Business Model? on HP to Acquire Voodoo PC · · Score: 0

    So... I guess Sony and Toshiba don't count anymore? If they do, who did they buy for a gaming company?

  4. That's correct- on Guitar Hero II Coming to Next-Gen Consoles · · Score: 0

    And the soundtrack includes Rock God's, Rush. I wonder how hard their song will be?

  5. Re:Never owned a console in my life on Will the Wii Work? · · Score: 0

    No! Be careful dude- its addictive as hell. That year? Yeah. Gone in a few months.

    Bah, silly Rusians musta pulled out their firehoses to extinguish the "threat"

  7. So... on Professor Sells Lectures Online · · Score: 0
    Part of me thinks that some students would abuse this- there's no way to validate the claims made by a student out for a week, and now, they can just grab an electronic copy... But part of me, for the reasons stated in the article and more, likes this a lot. I can honestly say I wish my college would offer this, because things have happened that I cannot control, and I do miss classes.

    At the same time, part of me is angered by this. The statement that "I've payed to get into the classrooms", is sort of bullshit. First of all, I've paid a lot of fuckin' money to get there- AND THEN I HAVE TO BUY MY BOOKS. How is it that you figure on top of my 18,xxx$ a YEAR tuition you should not include at least an electronic copy of the lecture in some form, IF I am able to prove that I had missed class for a reason better than just oversleeping?

    On another note... One kids tuition probably pays the same as the entire ammount of money the school might stand to gain in the course of selling lectures for a year- I can't imagine it's a huge market, and just as a bonus, it would make me that much happier when I see him drive away in his Porsche. Dunno why, it just would.

    I'm not quite sure if I just found that out [and it was my company, school, ect.] while I was drunk that I would stop drinking...

    Hell, pass that borrle.
    Did I say borrle? Haha.

  10. Re:doesn't shock me on Teens Don't Think CD Copying is a Crime · · Score: 0

    From your article; "This memory black hole is essentially the problem of the older crowd: 48 percent of those who did not know were between the ages of 55 and 64, and 47 percent were older than 65, according to the poll." So, please tell me, what does this have to do with teenagers?

  11. I dunno... on Zango Caught in Lies About MySpace? · · Score: 1, Funny
    Something about my MySpace and 5 dollars and crappy embedded videos...

    I'm out.

    Buying a car.

    You have choices, a Lexus, Acura, and a Ford.

    Ford's come from the factory broken, and continue to break down over time, requiring numerous trips to the dealership, so it's safe to say NO!

    Acura's are fancy, and have the speed side down, [Think NSX] and the reliability is good, but there isn't much you can do to the car, unless you buy aftermarket accessories.

    Lexus's are really nice, and have tons of options. While they may not be as quick as Acura's, their choices and reliability are almost unbeatable!

    In the end, it all comes down to what you want and need [Which is NOT the Ford] - so you choose accordingly.

  14. I feel bad for on Playstation 3 Soon Into Production · · Score: 0
    Every single asshole on all the message boards that I visit that always tell me, Oh PS3's initial batch is already built and Sony is just waiting [for whatever new excuse not to launch they can pull out of their ass]

    Haha. Morons.

  15. A lot of you fail to see the possibilities: on Walmart Tries to Emulate MySpace · · Score: 0

    Think about the parents who wont allow their children on MySpace, and have the very young tweens [11-12-13] who may not be interested in MySpace just yet, and these parents see this "Safe" version of MySpace, they would let them join. There, you have your user base.

  17. This has been around forever- on Voice Phishing Hits PayPal · · Score: 0

  18. Hopefully on Athens Breeding "Super Mosquitoes" · · Score: 0

    Hopefully these Mosquitoes will turn on other Mosquitoes and drive them off, or kill them completely- why? Because the regular ones aren't bad enough, and the way the article describes these things sucking sounds like my SUV with the pedal to the floor, so bring 'em on, Raid 2.0 is ready.

  22. uhhh on Library Chief Criticized for Requiring Subpoena · · Score: 0

    Yeah, because the Government is scared at how many times Harry Potter has been checked out in the past few months, and that's kind of like file sharing, except they don't really steal it because they give it back to their community. Eventually.

    Everyone put a fucking mirror on their roof, and bounce sunlight back into space.
