  1. Re:I've disabled text messaging on SMS 4x More Expensive Than Data From Hubble · · Score: 0

    We disabled text messaging the first time we had pay money to receive a spam message. That was simply unacceptable. Everything about SMS pricing is stupid.

  2. "Modern" OSes on MIT Releases the Source of MULTICS, Father of UNIX · · Score: 0, Offtopic

    ...the father of UNIX and all modern OSes.

    Am I just being paranoid, or is everything a swipe against Microsoft?

  3. ELIZA on Don't Dismiss Online Relationships As Fantasy · · Score: 3, Funny

    I used to chat online with someone named ELIZA. She was always very attentive to everything I said. She wanted to know everything about me and my parents. You can't tell me that wasn't real!

  4. It's nothing personal--only business. on Chicago Cancels Municipal Wi-Fi Plan · · Score: 2, Funny

    This is the start of the Wi-Fi turf wars. Earthlink is going to host hotspots inside AT&T's territory. "They can't muscle their way in here. Everyone knows that we own the south side." Disputes will be settled with tommy guns. There'll be secret meetings with the leaders of the five telecoms. That's Chicago for you.

  5. Re:Oh jesus on Humans Can Still Out-Bluff Machines · · Score: 2, Funny

    Maybe a couple of people just "needed" to spend some mod points before they expired, and computer poker is the only thread they weren't going to post about.

    That's the way I would expect a poker player to think about things.

    Or, perhaps, you are not really that analytical, but you want us to think you are. Hmm...

  6. Re:shooting the messenger is now + 5 insightful? on Apple Safari On Windows Broken On First Day · · Score: 1

    And if you're installing a beta then yes, you really should be aware that you're in for some bugs. It's very unfortunate that Google has diluted the meaning of "beta" so much.

    Stupid Google and their bug-free code. They're ruining it for everybody.

  7. Germans on Polish Fans Held By Police For Movie Translations · · Score: 1

    website was shut down immediately afterwards by the German forces

    "Ve have vays of making you not talk.

  8. Re:Oh good grief on Experts Now Say JFK Bullet Analysis Was Wrong · · Score: 2, Funny

    Yeah, yeah, JFK and Monroe, sure. But not Elvis.

    OK, people. Let's get this straight. Elvis is dead. Period. He's been dead since 1991. Otherwise the US Postal Service would never have made a stamp with him on it. Best as I can figure, the CIA must have told the USPS about his demise as soon as it happened.

  9. Re:Doesn't Clobber Win2k on The Clueless Newbie Rides Again · · Score: 1

    Maybe she should realize that there's only ONE COMPANY out there that assumes it owns your whole PC....

    RealMedia?

  10. Re:In Other News... on RIAA Wants Student Deposed On School Day · · Score: 1

    What kind of a moron sees this funny?

    I thought it was quite funny. But I'm not familiar with your moron classification system, so I can't help you out, Anonymous Coward. Clearly you and I are in separate moron categories.
