Comment Re:Chilling thought (Score 1) 433

What disturbs me is that everyone fails to mention that the TV station owner used his TV station to accuse the government of mass killings, without presenting any proof whatsoever.

I mean, he owns the TV station, and he goes outside the country to make accusations (that may be true, mind you) without presenting any proof, and then transmits those declaration nonstop on his TV station. This is not about free speech, or freedom of press. It's about making claims without any proof and then using your own TV station to repeat the message ad-nauseam.

If you have the balls to make wild claims, you better have a pair to prove them.

You have the freedom to accuse the government of killing people, but you have the duty to present the proof. Nowhere in the world (including the USA) you can accuse anybody of mass killing people without presenting any proof and come out clean. And when the accuser is the owner of a major TV channel it's worse.

Next, we'll see slashdot out-crying the incarceration of killers because they voted against Chavez.

Submission + - The REAL PS3 Grill

twistedsymphony writes: "A friend of mine over in Australia took the PS3 grill joke to a whole new level, he got his hands on a Japanese PS3 and turned it into a working grill. In addition to pictures of him cooking up some tasty sausages and steaks they use the opportunity to make a through disassembly tutorial.
When the final case design of the Playstation 3 was released, it was widely critsised as looking exactly like a George Foreman Grill. A few months later, Photoshopped pictures started emerging on the internet of the Playstation 3 with a grill built into it we decided this would be a great project and challenge to actually build the Real PS3 Grill.

Submission + - The Rise of Casual Games

eldavojohn writes: "CNN is running a story on casual gaming. The article mentions that the latest PopCap game "Bookworm Adventures" cost $30 million. The article also claims that casual gamers play to relax and the majority of them are female, popular games are often copied by rogue programmers and that fancy graphics & music may detract from the games' appeal to the gamer. This was a new niche of computer gaming that seems to have exploded while I was busy with every MMO under the sun. Are the quick & simple games that I've somehow missed at sites like PopCap.com a multi-million dollar industry?"
