OLPC shakeup: dual-screen XO-2 out, ARM-based XO 1.75 in {Engadget}

Nov 3rd 2009 2:00PM Could be his reflection on glass, but I'm not putting money on it.

HP's Pavilion dv3 and dm1 wash ashore on European land {Engadget}

Oct 26th 2009 10:23PM Sometimes it can be for ergonomic reasons. Other times, the laptop will feature a keypad and, instead of centering the touchpad with the whole laptop, they choose to center it with the the standard keyboard area which pushes it a bit left. This is probably most likely so that your hands are closer to the area of the keyboard that gets used most.

Police to auction off nitrous-fueled, motorized La-Z-Boy {Engadget}

Oct 26th 2009 10:18PM Slappy, besides speculation, you've proved nothing other than your troll mentality. Go back to making cars and screwing in-laws, as social interaction isn't working for you or any of your future bastard sons anytime soon.

Microsoft ditches Family Guy special... for being Family Guy {Engadget}

Oct 26th 2009 9:47PM I don't really have qualms about the people that don't like this show, in fact I see their point in some cases; However, I'd like to make the case that even stupid comedy is comedy, it's just a brand that requires the watcher to let go a lot of the eloquence and wit of more seriously written humor in order to cherish what is essentially just plain silly. Now in that vein, I think Family Guy does an excellent job (sometimes) giving the stupid humor genre its due. If you're so heavily turned off by the vulgarity and stupidity outlined in Family Guy, I suggest watching a season of Drawn Together. I'm not saying Family Guy as a whole is great by any stretch, but opening our acceptance of different forms of comedy should be more important than shamelessly pinning the show as a corner for the drudges of society.

Magic Mouse post-teardown loses some of its dark arts charm {Engadget}

Oct 22nd 2009 1:11AM Yeah, well I hate both of your comments AND my own. So hah.

In-game 'shop' will bring microtransactions to Fable 3 {Joystiq}

Oct 21st 2009 10:36PM @Markez: I never understood the, "I recognize this is something that a lot of people don't agree with, so just sit there and do nothing about it" mentality. Just because DLC is becoming a popular "wave of the future" (what is this, the 90s?) doesn't mean that people shouldn't be able to protest it, and telling everybody who is protesting to "sit down and shut up" isn't a very constructive way to help move the game industry towards an experience we all can enjoy.

Metareview: Borderlands {Joystiq}

Oct 20th 2009 9:13PM I would personally forgo Chinatown Wars PSP and Assassin's Creed Bloodlines in place of this game. Of course, I do have Chinatown Wars for the DS and don't find myself playing it much anymore.

Metareview: Borderlands {Joystiq}

Oct 20th 2009 9:04PM I want it for PC so very badly. I've got it pre-ordered, but I wish there were a way to play it sooner other than for-go the mouse, keyboard, and full frame-rate for a console version.

Point-and-click your way to the ever-charming Machinarium {Joystiq}

Oct 18th 2009 8:39PM Even? Not really.

You chose the torrent over the demo - you contributed upload speed to others that aren't downloading the demo, which probably played through the game and didn't buy it regardless of if you were just trying it or not.

Torrenting the whole game and downloading a demo are not the same, regardless of your intentions with the media you torrented.

If your beliefs are different, so be it, but they don't and most likely never will super-cede the laws that are in place that say otherwise.
