  1. Re:People don't learn from history on Barack Obama Wins Democratic Nomination · · Score: 2, Insightful

    Same here, but not if Ms. Clinton is on the ticket.

  2. Re:Do no evil doesnt stop 'aiding evil do bad thin on Google Assists In Arrest Of Indian Man · · Score: 5, Insightful

    Homeboy ought to move to where you live. However, as he lives where he lives, the laws of where he lives were enforced, not the laws where you live. That, unfortunately, is the Way Things Are.

  3. Testing for the Olympics on NBC Activates Broadcast Flag · · Score: 1

    They may be testing it to see how well it works before the Olympics. People will want to record and delay the events, which could interfere with them watching NBC's nightly Highlightopalooza they seem so fond of.

  4. wow on Peter Gabriel's Web Server Stolen · · Score: 1, Redundant

    How could they have gotten in? Something like a sledgehammer maybe?

  5. Um, yeah, visuals on Speed Racer's Visual FX Uncovered · · Score: 1

    Have you ever seen the cartoon? It never was about deep plot lines, fascinating characters or great dialog. It was a kid, in a super-duper race car doing various improbable stunts to win races. For God's sake, one of the main characters is a monkey. Lighten. Up. It's supposed to be nothing more than "cooooool".

  6. Sniff, sniff on German Firms Patent Scented Text Messaging · · Score: 1

    Hey, I smell sex and candy!

  7. Re:Death certificate on Post-Suicide Account Cracking? · · Score: 1

    I agree with this sentiment. If the guy went to the trouble to lock all of his stuff away while he was alive, his privacy should be respected after he's gone.

  8. Not suprising on Disillusioned With IT? · · Score: 1

    Welcome to life over 35.

  9. Re:Well, sure, they have the cheap launch system. on India Launches 10 Satellites At Once · · Score: 1

    So you're saying that only one family could launch a satellite?

  10. Re:The surveillence is the easy bit on Is Cheap Video Surveillance Possible? · · Score: 1

    If he got pulled over for no taillights on the trailer, then he's a stupid criminal. Just like the guys with 200lbs of weed in the trunk that get popped for speeding. RE: Tim McVeigh.

  11. Not much has changed on Spam Is 30 Years Old · · Score: 3, Insightful

    30 years later one crap message to a list can still generate dozens of messages bitching about the extra traffic and waste of resources.

  12. Good enough on Diebold Admits ATMs Are More Robust Than Voting Machines · · Score: 1

    What's the problem? One has *my* money, the other has *your* vote.

  13. Re:oh god on How Social Networks May Kill Search as We Know It · · Score: 1

    So your mom says "baby, you can do anything you want..." And I'm all "faceboogle?"

  14. Re:Of course the geek chooses sports on Many Scientists Using Performance Enhancing Drugs · · Score: 1

    Multiple blows to the head aren't a mitigating factor that causes sensory impairment?

  15. Re:Reminds me of Maddox on Writers Find Blogging To Be a Stressful Method of Reporting · · Score: 1

    I work for a newspaper. Is it ok if I know what's going on 24/7?

  16. Re:Plus Ads on Newspapers Are Dying, Blog At 11 · · Score: 1

    Because subscriptions and stand sales don't cover the costs of producing the newspaper.

  17. Re:John Titor on Large Hadron Collider Sparks 'Doomsday' Lawsuit · · Score: 1

    that's "potatoe".

  18. Re:Proposed new budget on Must a CD Cost $15.99? · · Score: 1

    Wal-Mart employees burning discs? You have your expectations set too high.

  19. Could be $2.00 on Must a CD Cost $15.99? · · Score: 2, Interesting

    I like to buy CD's. I like reading the album notes, I like the artwork, and I like the smell of a freshly opened disc. I hate the music companies and don't like shelling out $15.00 for a disc. But the one thing I hate more than that is Wal-Mart censoring and altering the original work *without* placing a warning sticker on the label. And until they stop doing that, I will NOT buy any CD from them for any price. I live in a small town and as such I end up buying a lot of stuff at Wal-Mart; music CD's are not on that list.

  20. Re:Why no go back to horses sometime? on 100-Year-Old Electric Car Design Makes a Comeback · · Score: 1

    Four Letters: PETA.

  21. Re:The same John Uribe? on Late Adopters Prefer the Tried and True · · Score: 4, Insightful

    The dude probably doesn't see the need to change. I've got ~300 users just like him. The check their email, they log on to their banks website once a month and occasionally they look at the weather or news. That's all they do with the internet. They don't care about YouTube, they don't Facebook and they don't download music. Netscape on Win98 over dialup works for them and they see no need to change at all. They're not afraid to, they just don't need or particularly care enough to want to. Not nearly all of them are over 50.

  22. Re:Exactly what I wanted to hear! on Ron Paul Campaign Answers Slashdot Reader Questions · · Score: 0, Troll

    You're saying Obama is a libertarian?

  23. Re:It's also a cause of the problem described on Corporate Email Etiquette - Dead or Alive? · · Score: 1

    Out of curiosity, what's the problem with just ignoring an email that isn't appropriate to you? It's a little like ignoring off topic posts to a mailing list, isn't it? Some people just can't help themselves and you end up with a list full of off topically bitching about off topic messages. You all know who you are.
  24. Re:My first computer was there on The 10 Worst PC Keyboards of All Time · · Score: 1

    Oh man, we just got in a group of new iMacs here at the office. I haven't used one yet, but the new keyboards look like a bumpy credit card. Are they just the final step before a buttonless, iPhone type interface?

  25. Re:Common sense on Domains May Disappear After Search · · Score: 1

    I think the "excreting" part is happening already.
