Let me mention a few keywords that your text-mining software might include in the next monthly report as a word cloud that a human looks at for a few seconds before deciding everything is hunky dory:

idiocy
greed
repugnant
careless
bullying

Great job! Does your system recognize sarcasm?

Yeah it looked like the Dungeon Master had a seperate screen to control certain aspects of the game, so maybe they could also "override" the strict rules there without anyone being the wiser?

Sorry, are you confused about creationism or have you not played Spore?

I think that's a matter of opinion. I find that I'm pretty good at keeping the malware off and my disk defragged. I'm not a sys admin, so I only have to deal with my machines and my family's, but still ...

Nah, it's our job as avid /. readers to constantly second guess our government. :)

I'm sick of people endlessly making sequels. I watched Rambo: First Blood a couple of months ago and was shocked at how good it was.

It's really easy to call people idiots while having the benefit of hindsight, not to mention reading all the comments that have already been made on the topic.

Put yourself in their shoes: burglaries are a big problem in their neighborhood; a car with a big camera drives by "casing" your neighborhood. What do you do?

You probably wouldn't do anything, most people are apathetic about their own futures. I applaud the person who noticed the car, drew a quick conclusion, and decided to take action. That's leadership.

So that Val Kilmer can navigate the surface of Mars, of course.

Sorry, how confident are you that the DRM is to blame here? Uninstallers often leave behind old libraries, which can cause problems during a re-install.

I'm no fan of DRM either but still ...
