  1. Re:Dont bother competing on DARPA Announces 2005 Grand Challenge Semifinalists · · Score: 2, Insightful

    "DARPA Grand Challenge: Because An Army of Kill-Bots Will Make Them Like America Again!"

    I don't want our enemies to like us, I want them dead.

  2. Re:ocean temperatures? on Water Now More Awesome Than Previously Thought · · Score: 4, Funny

    Oceans are big - really big - you just won't believe how vastly, hugely mind-bogglingly big they are. You may think it's a long way down the road to the chemist, but that's just peanuts to oceans.

    (ref.)

  3. Re:Just because something is "old" on Beyond Relational Databases · · Score: 1

    Why people don't use PostgreSQL is beyond me - unless they don't like fact it is under a BSD license instead of the GPL (please don't get me started on that).

    I think it's more because people look at the name, try to figure out how to pronounce it, then give up and use MySQL.

  4. Re:I'm not a Californian on Tinfoil Hat House · · Score: 1

    I think it's a joke. See the monty python foot?

    Not that I see what's so funny... and it's not April 1 or anything, either..

  5. Re:Flame me, but... on Tinfoil Hat House · · Score: 0, Offtopic

    I guess the "readers" don't do much "reading"... it's a joke.

  6. Re:That's cool... on Cuba Switching to Linux · · Score: 1

    It is captivating, isn't it?

  7. Re:Can Microsoft even legally sell Windows in Cuba on Cuba Switching to Linux · · Score: -1, Troll

    I think Cuba does a good job of proving that communism doesn't work on its own.

  8. Re:5.7 teraflops on IBM Provides Access to Blue Gene On Demand · · Score: 1, Funny

    yeah, but it'd only take one or two flops to stimulate your mom

  9. Re:Why Turkey Guts? on AgroWaste to Oil a Growing Market · · Score: 1

    I'm sure slaughterhouses would be glad to have a way to get rid of all the shit that the animals produce.

    Ever eaten at Mickey D's?

  10. Re:Jon Stewart rocks... on Daily Show Production Team Nets Creative Freedom · · Score: 0

    Sound like a good read for an elementary school student.

  11. Re:The sad thing is... on Daily Show Production Team Nets Creative Freedom · · Score: -1, Flamebait

    Um, didn't John Stewart think John Kerry would make a good president?

    Talk about out of touch with reality...

  12. Re:Isnt' against federal law? on Online Cigarette Customers Get Bill from State · · Score: 1

    It sounds like you'd enjoy living in the Soviet Union. Too bad it's not around any longer...

  13. Re:Yeah, on WiMax Technology Could Blanket the US? · · Score: 1

    You realize that because of the invasion Saddam is no longer filling mass graves with children? That he's no longer building prisons and torture chambers specifically for children?

    If you wanna pull a "Think of the Children," at least try not to come up with complete Bush-derangement-syndrome America-hating bullshit.

    Even this British Marxist group can figure out what you've obviously failed to: http://www.marxist.org.uk/htm_docs/comm12.htm ...and for fuck's sake, they're British! And Marxists!

  14. Re:Smoke Screen on Kyoto Protocol Comes Into Force · · Score: 1

    The question is, can the will of the world force the US into a position that it views as unjust towards itself?

    The will of the world? Any group of countries not including the U.S., China and India is hardly representative of the "will of the world"... perhaps a spent shambles of world opinion, but nothing like the real thing.

  15. Re:'gain a relative economical advantage'.. on Kyoto Protocol Comes Into Force · · Score: 0, Troll

    ensuring that our children have a decent world left will have some costs.

    Yeah, somebody will have to pay the terrible emotional cost of killing all you environmentalist nutcases, so that our children are left with a decent world, free from inane blather.

    Think of the Children!
    Save the Planet!

  16. Re:White House on The Typo Millionaires · · Score: 1

    Funny comment, but you've got to wonder about the whole premise of this slashdot article. How is it possible that there's a sizable group of people who would sit down at the computer to look up, say, some research on american politics, and then when they mistype a URL and end up looking at a screen full of naked people decide "what the hell, might as well buy some porn instead"? It just doesn't make any sense...

  17. Re:Favorite mis-typed URLs? on The Typo Millionaires · · Score: 2, Interesting

    This isn't a misspelling, but I wonder about the website ©.com. I didn't even know you could register something like that.

    Hope it shows up correctly on your screen, if not it's copyright symbol dot com.

    AFTER PREVIEW: looks like the text shows up fine, but /. stripped the symbol out of the link. You'll have to copy-paste the URL, or type it yourself.

    Stephen Hawking might talk funny, but he's not dumb.

  20. Re:For those wondering... on Fallout From Japanese Patent On Help Icon · · Score: 1

    Sounds like what they had in all those Sierra games, Space Quest, Police Quest, etc.

    Addictive Vogon Poetry

  22. Re:A Prime Example of Wikifailure on WikiPedia Founder Wales Speaks About Wikinews · · Score: 1

    A link to a site where anyone can place material is not a link worth having on wikipedia.

    Rich.

    (In all seriousness, you do make a valid point)
