  1. !constitution on AT&T Invents Surveillance Programming Language · · Score: 5, Informative

    Hancock signed the Declaration of Independence.

  2. Re:Best AntiVirus Product out there on AntiVirus Products Fail to Find Simple IE Malware · · Score: 2, Informative

    Why would you use a tinyurl for ubuntu.com? You look like a troll.

  3. Re:Vaporware. on Researchers Achieve Amazing Memory Density · · Score: 1

    I don't mean to say that we'll never have the advertised storage density - we all remember our first 100 MB system, or 1 GB system, or 100 GB system, whatever seemed impossible to fill at the time we were growing up - but you're joking if you don't have a product on the market which someone has bought.

  4. Vaporware. on Researchers Achieve Amazing Memory Density · · Score: 3, Insightful

    We've all seen this a dozen times before. All "amazing density storage" is vaporware, even if we'll be able to buy it real soon now.

  5. Spore is finished. on Spore About Six Months Away · · Score: 2, Informative
  6. Re:Rumors on Court Strikes Down Age Verification For Adult Sites · · Score: 1

    Oh, I'm not a troll, I just like to encourage diligence. Maybe I should put my sig behind a tinyurl though. Not using previews seems to be a problem.

  8. Prerelease leaks on Name-Your-Cost Radiohead Album Pirated More Than Purchased · · Score: 1

    Lots of my friends torrented the album early. Let all this conserved bandwidth be a lesson to Radiohead about not releasing the album when it's finished.

  9. Re:Beatles... on Led Zeppelin Agrees To Digital Distribution · · Score: 1

    I think you're confusing "The Battle of Evermore" with the lyric "the angels of Avalon."

  10. Re:Unfortunately... on Satellite Images Used to Monitor Burmese Junta · · Score: 1

    It's an ancient ad campaign for a brand of shaving cream called Burma-Shave. There would be a series of billboards with a rhyme. See http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Burma-Shave.

  11. First time in history... on Impassable Northwest Passage Open For First Time In History · · Score: 1

    ...for very small values of history.

  12. Re:I've never understood the desire to use an Ipod on Apple Cuts Off Linux iPod Users · · Score: 1

    Cowon iAudio I7. Rated for 60 hours, with a 5-band EQ and 52 mW amplifier.

  14. Fourth on HD VMD Shows Up Late For the Format War · · Score: 4, Informative
  15. Re:Because they're smarter. on Why Are So Many Nerds Libertarians? · · Score: 1

    Why did you assume I am a libertarian?

  16. Because they're smarter. (n/t) on Why Are So Many Nerds Libertarians? · · Score: 1, Insightful

    Because they're smarter. (n/t)

  17. No. on Viacom Says User Infringed His Own Copyright · · Score: 1

  18. Re:Funny how things like this work out. on Users Trash Wal-Mart On Its Facebook Site · · Score: 1

    Most people out there know someone that worked at or works for Walmart. I have never met someone that had anything good to say about working there, yes even higher up district managers.
    Wal-Mart sucks because retail sucks.
  19. Ooh, how many sides? on MS Seeks Patent On Virtual Fuzzy Dice · · Score: 1

    I hope they offer an icosahedral version.

  20. Re:Yeah........ on Skype Blames Microsoft Patch Tuesday for Outage · · Score: 4, Insightful

    Care to elaborate, Hercule Poirot?

  21. Re:Is YouTube really an appropriate platform? on Putting Anti-Evolution Candidates On the Spot · · Score: 0, Troll

    Thumbs up or down on macroevolution is not a "major decision". It is an untestable hypothesis with no bearing on anyone's life.

  22. Re:What about on DUI Defendant Wins Source Code to Breathalyzer · · Score: 1

    He probably wrote it in Latin.

  23. Re:What do you mean apparent? on Gamers Don't Know Their Own Consoles · · Score: 1

    I think someone needs to look up what "apparently" means.

  24. Let's all take this as a reminder to on Couple Bonding Through PC Building · · Score: 5, Insightful

    Go to the Firehose and bury inconsequential stories.

  25. Well done, /. on Ubuntu Dell Now In UK, France, and Germany · · Score: 1

    Good job, editors. With all the complaints we see about bad summaries, it's nice to see a summary that's so concise and correct.
