Comment Works fine for me (Score 1) 208

I am not supporting the release of crappy software and I didn't buy BF4 on day one. But I did buy it fairly early on and honestly I have never experienced any game or enjoyment destroying issues. Yes there were bugs and yes the servers were down sometimes but I have been playing for many months now with no significant issues at all. As far as I can tell just about everyone else is as bad as EA and yes we as the consumer seem to be willing to accept pretty shoddy product. And I do think the answer is simply to not buy until there is some level of stability.

First off the original article is so inconsistent as to be laughable. First it is Marines then the Army. Second there is no reliable evidence or report that Saddam was even shown the movie, much less repeatedly. The original article certainly doesn't offer any and the only indication is Trey saying he was told they did it. But /.ers will still throw a hissy fit about something that probably didn't happen in the first place and if it did is so secondary and trivial compared to all that did happen that it makes me want to puke.

Comment Re:Peace through mini nukes! (Score 1) 611

As I read it no not "a couple minutes with common construction equipment". No common construction equipment can dig through 25-30 feet of compacted soil in a few minutes, not to mention breach the containment vessel. Maybe a day. But part of the plan, as strange as it seems, is to locate these in populated areas. That way the local population forms a type of security system. If I see guys digging around my local nuke site you can bet I am going to check up on it!
