  1. Restricted website? on Using AI to Monitor Kids Online · · Score: 4, Funny

    "I'm sorry, Dave... I'm afraid I can't do that..."

  2. Suggestion on Using AI to Monitor Kids Online · · Score: 2, Funny

    Ooh! Can they bring back the purple gorilla and parrot we all know and love from the wonderful folks at Bonzi??

  3. Space Cowboys on Expensive U.S. Spy Satellite Not Working · · Score: 1

    Well, now is the time to send up some more Space Cowboys to repair it. Clint Eastwood shouldn't be to busy right now...

  4. Who needs spaceships? on Blue Origin Building DC-X Lookalike · · Score: 1

    I, for one, will just wait for Willy Wonka to finish the Phase III testing of his fizzy lifting drinks

  5. Re:Forgot about Cisco? on How Apple Kept the iPhone Secret · · Score: 0

    Oh yeah, I happened to stumble across an article or 2 yesterday, but out of the 1400 some-odd comments that were made in the original iPhone/Macworld thread yesterday, I don't recall seeing a single mention of Cisco (at least in none of the posts modded 3+).

  6. Forgot about Cisco? on How Apple Kept the iPhone Secret · · Score: 2, Interesting

    With all of this recent iPhone talk, why haven't I seen a single mention about Cisco already trademarking the "iPhone" and creating their own iPhone a month or so ago?
    Have Cisco and Apple settled their talks over the trademark usage?

  7. Re:No danger! on 10th Annual Wacky Warning Labels Out · · Score: 0
    Yep, no danger here! Well, at least as long as the label isn't put inside the machine.
    That would actually be a good idea! "If you can read this, get out now!"
  8. Re:Carmen Sandiego on Can Games Fly On Google Earth? · · Score: 3, Funny

    She's having sex with Waldo...which would explain why you can never find either of them.

  9. W.C. Fields on Drinking Alcohol May Extend Your Life · · Score: 0

    To quote the comedian/heavy drinker, W.C. Fields, someone once asked him why he doesn't drink more water...his reply was "Because fish fuck in it."

  10. My password ideas on MySpace Users Have Stronger Passwords Than Employees · · Score: 1

    None of my passwords mean anything.

    All of my passwords are usually numeric patterns (done on the numpad) that form some shape or random pattern that I've come up with. They're not my birthday, my time of birth, SS#, phone number, etc, nothing that actually has any concrete meaning to it. Some are alphanumeric if both are required, but they still lack any concrete meaning.

    It's alot harder for someone to guess a password that just looks like a bunch of random numbers with no real meaning, especially when they ARE just a bunch of random numbers with no real meaning.

  11. Holy Redundancy, Batman! on World's First Jail Sentence for BitTorrent Piracy · · Score: 0, Redundant

    You can never have too many comments about his bad taste in here! Keep em coming!

  12. So what happens... on Microsoft Formally Releases Robotics Software · · Score: 4, Funny

    ...when you complete your 50m tall Gundam, complete the programming with Robotics Studio, and on the 30th day, you realize that you forgot to activate it using a Genuine MS key...

    The last thing I need is a 50m mobile suit pissed at me for pirating software...

  13. I'll have you know... on Is Internet Addiction a Medical Condition? · · Score: 1

    I'm not addicted to the internet, and I can stop anytime I want. ...I'm just trying to beat the end boss...

  14. The blogger's problem? on Online Store to Sue Blogger Over Google Ranking? · · Score: 1

    What's the point of suing the blogger? If Google is the one that creates the page rankings, and is the reason why that blog is ranked higher than his website, how is it the blogger's fault?

    Maybe TFA explained it, but it's /. traffic killed it...

  15. Warning time? on Predicting Space Weather · · Score: 1

    After RTFA, I'm curious as to how far these "forecasts" would stretch.

    Even if a giant solar flare was predicted quickly and accurately, unless it was predicted early enough to give us a 10 minute warning before arrival, we're screwed.

    ...Come to think of it, even if we get a 10 minute warning of a solar flare heading our way, what exactly would be able to do about it? Still seems like we're screwed, we'll just know about it a little sooner...

  16. Ancient mouse scores? on Independent Benchmarking System for Mice · · Score: 1

    I wonder what kind of score the very first mouse would get: http://sloan.stanford.edu/MouseSite/Archive/patent /Mouse.html

  17. Re:4 years down the road on Disk Drives Face Challenge From Chips · · Score: 1

    16 GIGS of RAM? Now that's just crazy talk. We all know 640K of this stuff is more than we'll ever really need.

  18. sp@m much? on EarthLink Is Losing a Lot of Email · · Score: 1

    Well if Earthlink subscribers only recieve 2 out of every 10 emails, does that mean they only get one for V1AGRA!! and another for C1AL1S!!, or is it slightly more diverse than that?

  19. Lawyer choice? on RIAA Victims Bring Class Action Against Kazaa · · Score: 1

    I just hope she's not going to use the same lawyers that SCO is using...

  20. Re:Nice chip but... will we get to see the benefit on AMD Announces 65-nm Chips, Touts Power Savings · · Score: 1

    "What Andy [Grove] giveth, Bill [Gates] taketh away."

  21. Punishment? on Warner CEO Admits His Kids Stole Music · · Score: 5, Funny

    Bronfman insists that, after a stern talking-to, his children have suffered the full consequences of their actions.

    Screw a stern talking-to.

    Screw lawsuits.

    I, for one, suggest that he lock his kids in the WB watertower.

  22. The goggles! on Millimeter-Wave Weapon Certified For Use In Iraq · · Score: 4, Funny

    They do nothing!!

  23. Rewards? on "Sysadmin of the Year" Winners Announced · · Score: 3, Funny

    So does the winner recieve all of the Xena and Star Trek: Voyager season DVDs, as well as a lifetime supply of Hot Pockets and Pop Tarts?

  24. Forgot something? on Windows Vista and XP Head To Head · · Score: 1

    HOME ENTERTAINMENT VISTA: Finally, the Media Center capabilities comes built-into most versions of Windows Vista aside from the basic, entry level version. It has also been enhanced over the previous version, although reviewers claim it has not received as much of an improvement as the rest of Windows has over previous versions. Vista also plays most other forms of digital media through its own Windows Media Player software, with a whole host of competing media players available to download, many free of charge, from the Internet.
    Is it just me, or did he conveniently forget to mention anything about any form of DRM in there?
  25. Decisions, Decisions on SCO Having a Hard Time In Court · · Score: 1, Funny

    In 1 year, I wonder what people would rather choose to own:

    100 shares of SCO stock or 100 nude photos of Janet Reno...


    Even after you've made your decision, what the hell do you do with 100 nude photos of Janet Reno??
