  1. Eggs, Basket on SSD Failure Temporarily Halts Linux 3.12 Kernel Work · · Score: 5, Funny

    That's all that Ballmer needs to stop Linux? Just find Torvald's SSD?

  2. Pseudo-Streisand effect on 11-Word Extracts May Infringe Copyright In Europe · · Score: 1

    I could safely bet the next 10 stories will have the tag '11words'.

  3. Lost in thought over the children again on In Canada, No Expectation of Privacy On the Net · · Score: 1

    You know, Using the "THINK OF THE CHILDREN!" argument to justify violating my privacy is a little old these days. Especially with Child Pornography, distributed by pedophile rings that "Think of the children" much more than you do, minister.

  5. Grab Bag on Causes of Death Linked To Weight · · Score: 1

    overweight people have a lower death rate because they are much less likely to die from a grab bag of diseases...

    Now is this a Super Grab Bag or the Fun Size? Just making sure I get the right medicine!

  7. Jesus Christ in a Chicken Basket on NC State Creates Most Powerful Positron Beam Ever · · Score: 3, Insightful

    Currently, there are approximately 25 universities across the United States with active nuclear reactors on campus


    You know, when you've read as many science fiction books as I have, this shit is a liiiitle creepy.

  8. Re:Go For the Throat! on Subterranean Slashdot Email Blues · · Score: 1

    My favorite E-mail of them all is the fake "abuse" complaint which contained this gold:


    There isn't anything to correct dumb-ass. This is how the system was meant to work.

    Maybe the dude sending in the false complaint should follow his own advice!

  9. W32.Chair.G@mm on Subterranean Slashdot Email Blues · · Score: -1, Redundant

    So, Slashdot gets hate mail, eh? Who woulda thunk it?



    So...Any of those from Ballmer, by chance?

  10. Re:spyware on Freeware FPS Alien Arena 2007 Reviewed · · Score: 1

    Oh, so he's coming back and stirring up a bee's nest?

    HAMMERTIME!

    (now discussion can continue as normal.)

  12. Viva La Revolucion! on Little Old Lady Hammers Comcast · · Score: 0

    Suddenly, Whac-a-Mole has a whole new meaning.

    (damn, if this was AT&T I could have made that joke funny in three ways.)

  13. Re:spyware on Freeware FPS Alien Arena 2007 Reviewed · · Score: 1

    Oh yeah, I forgot, Alien Arena's project leader.

    Drop it. Posting screenshots does not equate to stealing players.

  14. Re:Linux gaming arena? on AMD To Open ATI Specs · · Score: 5, Funny

    You mean, I might be able to play Chromium?

  15. These are hardy/lucky little machines! on Spirit and Opportunity Are Back Online · · Score: 4, Funny

    I'm so glad these machines made it, I was seriously concerned if we would get any more information from these rovers. From what I heard, it would have been many months for replacements to arrive, and that would only be if there would be replacements at all.

    Go, Spirit and Opportunity!

  16. Re:Thank god I don't live in a retarded nation on Pirate Banned From Using Linux · · Score: 3, Funny

    And where would that be? International Copyright Laws don't apply where you live?

    Or did you forget to post AC?

  17. Newfags are Signing Up! on AC = Domestic Terrorists? · · Score: 1

    Fox11 just did what Anonymous couldn't. Advertise for their cause.

    People are joining the *chans like crazy wanting to be a part of the Anonymous Army.

    Thank you, Fox News. They're newfags, but they'll do. They'll do quite well.

  18. What the.... fuck... was this? on Web Radio Negotiations Carry Poison Pill · · Score: 3, Informative

    Impossible. Nothing was saved. As long as microphones and Full duplex cards exist, and a headphone jack, you cannot...

    Why is my nose bleeding?

  19. Obligatory on MS Moves R&D To Canada Due To Immigration Problem · · Score: 5, Funny

    Outsourcing, eh?

  20. NannyState? on CallerID Spoofing to be Made Illegal · · Score: 2, Interesting

    This isn't "NannyState" at all, this is an attempt at stopping scammers and other slimeballs from taking advantage of people.

  21. Re:papers please on National ID May Have Killed Immigration Bill · · Score: 0, Troll

    I'm sure he got an apology from that. Besides, wasn't that 5 months after the attacks?

  22. Re:FCC.gov slashdotted? on Monday is Wiretap the Internet Day · · Score: 1

    I cannot access it either. Funny.

  23. I'm going to test this for myself! on Vista Eating Battery Life · · Score: 1, Interesting

    My friend and I have the same laptop, with the same battery. I have an extra HD for my computer, I'm going to install Vista on mine and boot his and mine both to the desktop, and then unplug them.

    Let's see which one dies first.


    I will post my findings as a reply to this message...

  24. 10 dollar laptop, eh? on India Hopes to Make $10 Laptops a Reality · · Score: 3, Interesting

    I hope these could be sold in the states if they are made, lots of kids in the poorer southern states could benefit. Hell, anyone could benefit from a low cost multipurpose laptop!

    I bought a TI extensa for $25 and it's 100 MHz with 8 MB RAM and it lasted me through high school, and part of college (the DC jack broke and my wireless PC card broke too :( )


    If they could make this low cost laptop like the TI Extensa 710 (with a faster clock and more RAM of course) I think we'd find a low-cost solution. Perhaps some old technology chips could be made again for a low cost.

  25. Re:Park's Official English Web Page on The Unauthorized State-Owned Chinese Disneyland · · Score: 2, Funny

    I'm stuck. Disneyland is too far, and This park is waaaay too far.


    Oh, what's this? I'm 300 miles from DisneyWORLD! Take that, China!
