  1. Re:Money on Expensify CEO On 'Why We Won't Hire .NET Developers' · · Score: -1, Troll

    You have HOW many posts on slashdot? That definitely raises questions.

  2. Re:I LOVE ANALOGIES! on If Search Is Google's Castle, Android Is the Moat · · Score: 2

    Google Alerts is a watch tower, and Analytics is for planning a defence. If the invaders managed to cross the moat, FeedBurner can be poured of them as a last line of defence.
    Google Buzz, URL Shortener and Blog Search are for torturing and extracting information from captured soldiers.

  3. Re:Lather, rinse, repeat on Utah Works To Repeal Anti-Transparency Law · · Score: 1

    A common misquote. It's actually:

    "The price of freedom is 75 trillion dollars" -- Thomas Jefferson

  4. App ecosystem! on Firefox 4, A Day Later · · Score: 5, Funny

    The "IE will survive/firefox will die" article:
    Firefox will die because it ONLY has extensions. It doesn't have an app ecosystem, and is therefore not buzzword compliant.

    Erm, yeah.

  5. Trust on Amazon Stymies Lendle E-book Lending Service · · Score: 3, Interesting

    I trust warez release groups more than Amazon. That's so wrong.

  6. Re:There really is an app for everything :P on Apple's App Store Accepts 'Gay Cure' App · · Score: 1

    That's brilliant!
    Because there is so much interpretation in religious texts anyway, we need a book that reads the users mind, and presents nothing more or less than exactly what they want to read. The ultimate confirmation bias. It will be the best seller of all time.

  7. Re:Copyright free scores already exist... on Open-Source Bach; Copyright-Free Goldbergs · · Score: 1

    I am totally opposed to this! What incentive is there for Bach to write more music if it's just going to be given away?

  8. 7 days on Internet Explorer From 1.0 To 9.0 · · Score: 5, Funny

    7 days after you watch that youtube video, YOUR BROWSER WILL CRASH.

  9. Re:How much per gallon? on Intelsat To Start Refueling Satellites In Orbit · · Score: 3, Funny

    More than Oregon. Less than in the UK

  10. Re:Watching the watchers on Scott Adams Says Plenty Would Choose Life In Noprivacyville · · Score: 1

    People can't learn the lessons of history. They don't live long enough.

  11. Everything is economics on Scott Adams Says Plenty Would Choose Life In Noprivacyville · · Score: 1

    The scheme would cost money to run, paid for by higher taxes. Offsetting any of the dubious proposed savings.
    Things are the way they are because that's the economic equilibrium. Utopias/dystopias are not stable configurations.

  12. Re:First Invent AI on Scott Adams Says Plenty Would Choose Life In Noprivacyville · · Score: 1

    Why would an AI care?

  13. Re:Facebook isn't "Social" on Poole To Zuckerberg: You’re Doing It Wrong · · Score: 1

    I can't decide if facebook is anti-social or sociopathic. It's definitely not social though.

  14. Re:Remind me, which one is the billionare? on Poole To Zuckerberg: You’re Doing It Wrong · · Score: 4, Insightful

    Neither was facebook

  15. tb;dw on Kinect Self-Awareness Hack · · Score: 5, Funny

    Too bearded;didn't watch

  16. Objection! on Gates' Future of Education Straight Out of '60s · · Score: 1

    Objection! OP is quoting "The Fellowship of the Ring"

    Some things that should not have been forgotten were lost. History became legend. Legend became myth. And for forty years, PLATO passed out of all knowledge.

  17. Re:Again? on 41% of Facebook Users Willing To Divulge Personal Info · · Score: 1

    Change your name to John Smith. Problem solved.

  18. Re:Stadards, people! on Solar Powered Table That Wirelessly Charges Your Gadgets · · Score: 2

    Radioisotope thermoelectric generators are the future of phone batteries, not all that poncy recharging.

  19. Re:No, there is NOT a 'meltdown'.... on Japan Battles Partial Nuclear Meltdown · · Score: 1

    I think the press has its priorities wrong

    The priority of selling more papers is wrong?

  20. Re:Real Benchmarks on Investigating the Performance of Firefox 4 and IE9 · · Score: 4, Funny

    Ultimate browser benchmark: Logging in, and posting on slashdot.

  21. Re:speaking in tongues on China Switching To Home-Grown Chips For Supercomputers · · Score: 1

    Superstition is not part of human nature; curiosity is.
    Superstition is the vacuum left over when you give up, or lack the means to continue the pursuit of knowledge.

  22. Re:Domination on China Switching To Home-Grown Chips For Supercomputers · · Score: 1

    Chinese vs Western is irrelevant.
    There is scientific/evidence-based medicine, and then there is everything else.

  23. Re:Efficiency is the key! on New Hardware Needed For Future Computational Brain · · Score: 2

    Why haven't we learned anything from the CPU industry?

    So you're saying AI is all in the branding, and that we should ship AI with artificial brain lobules disabled to reduce manufacturing costs?

  24. Beer powered on New Hardware Needed For Future Computational Brain · · Score: 5, Funny

    Each pint of beer contains 600 joules of energy, which can power your 20 watt brain for many hours, and give you trouble with vision, motion, and common sense.

  25. Re:Firefox/Linux on Safari/MacBook First To Fall At Pwn2Own 2011 · · Score: 1

    Yeah, fine forget linux. It's been tested in the past but not this year.

    ...it's nice to see firefox under represented in pwn2own.
