Combat games disrespect war laws, report claims

well,

Pro Juvenile and Trial can piss off.

I know the difference between a church in C&C and real life. One of them I will destroy wantonly, t'other I won't go anywhere near.

Perhaps these twats should concentrate on getting parents to understand how to raise children and those that fail can expect their children to be removed.

WON'T SOMEONE PLEASE THINK OF THE CHILDREN (!)

whats a title

I could understand it if the dude had said "I'm going to blow the White House up" ... that would make sense to have the person's identity revealed, but over a joke? Sounds like a fail to me. Do they not have jokes in the US?

Wales adopts mobile average speed cameras

AC 4

rewritten their statement for you.

it should read

"We are not interested in cutting road deaths as much as we are interested in fleecing more money from an already well raped motorist as we have large holes in our finances. The best way for us to do this is to use mobile average speed cameras. Althouigh, by their very nature, they will require a lot of time and effort to install and configure correctly to assure accurate readings, we will not bother to do this so that from the second the unit arrives at its location, we can start stealing monies. Mwahahahaha."

... yeah fuck you wales, first you make me pay to enter your shitty little country on the M4 bridge and now you want to steal more of my cash with dodgy "road death prevention" initiatives.

Facebook kills 'Kill Obama' poll

but clearly it's fun to kill Obama randomly put bombs in the whitehouse words into sentences.

How is this poll a threat? The SS are dumbasses. This polls is what's called F-U-N. Or do you not have fun on that side of the pond?

Hang on, there's a knock on the doo...

Hello world, I Love Obama. End communication.

i hear

the police station might be able to fit him in.

he just needs to go in, tell his story and they'll take pity and give him a room.

although actually maybe that's a bad plan as my tax cash monies would then be spent keeping the fucker fed and alive. hmm.

Amazon red cards 'offensive' Man Utd chant CD

AC 4
Dead Vulture

Aha, El Reg FALE!

Unofrtunately my bestest buddies, the chant actually went more like

"Sit down you ..."

I was part of the group of fans that highlighted the story to the sport.co.uk website who were then picked up on by the beeb et al.

Either way, like you say a) why is that even included as a manure chant CD and b) so long as it's been dropped.

im on orange

and I had heard about this about 10 days ago. I put off ringing them as I'm a lazy bastard.

Last night I rang them to get it done and was told that they weren't making the changes any more.

I was told it was because of "customer confusion" over the matter. They say people thought the change in charge related to calls made from within their bundles.

I call bullshit. They pulled it cos they lost millions of customers!

Sports site sues Facebook for click fraud

WTF?

heh

How many visitors a day does stalkerbook get? And these chumps get an entire 300 - 800 clicks a day. Wow that is impressively crap, I'd have expected the proportion of retards clicking on adverts to be higher at stalkerbook.

Thank god advertising appears to be dying, it's fucking annoying and I know I've never clicked on one in my entire t'interweb career.

@Estariel

Sorry, have you failed to distinguish between reality and fantasy? Granted I maybe should've said it sounded entertaining instead of enjoyable given the potential for sexual connotations but can you not see that it's to be read as fantasy and not as a guideline for an action in reality?

I'm willing to bet that at some point in your life you have played a game that has resulted in you killing some other form of "life" in the game and that it brought a smile to your face. Shall we recommend you for psychiatric assessment too?

You have also got your definitions confused, if something is "illegal but unprovably so" then it must therefore be legal. The Law does not set out what is legal, it sets out what is illegal and so if it doesn't fall into the "illegal" category it must therefore be legal, not the other way around.

The guy is not doing time for it (mercifully) because he has a fundemental right to be able to compose and publish works of pure fantasy. Is everybody really a boring mindless drone in your utopian world? What this guy did in writing and publishing his story was 100% ok and I'd hate to live in your world where it seems it's not.

now that it's not obscene,

can you publish it please? Or perhaps a playmobil reconstruction? The title of the piece makes it sound particularly enjoyable
