  1. Re:Mental Disabilities on The Secret to Raising Smart Kids · · Score: 2, Informative

    I think you are thinking of this story: http://instruct.westvalley.edu/lafave/hb.html Harrison Bergeron

    Its the only one I like by Vonnegut.

  2. Chemicals on The Secret to Raising Smart Kids · · Score: 5, Funny

    The early intake of PCB's seems to have made me [NO CARRIER]

  3. Re:which platform? on Jack Thompson Facing Disbarment Trial · · Score: 1

    He's facing a disbarment trial, not a crowbar trial! So its a Half-Life 2 mod? I'd rather use the Gravity Gun and a toilet, but what the heck.
  4. Re:Comedy Central? on David X. Cohen of Futurama Talks About the Movie · · Score: 1

    Thanks for the correction. I was posting from work and couldn't look it up.

    This is one of those times a "-1 Wrong" mod would be handy.

  5. Re:Comedy Central? on David X. Cohen of Futurama Talks About the Movie · · Score: 2, Informative

    I think "Dead Like Me" was originally on ABC and didn't last a full season. Sci-fi ran the episodes a few times and then moved on. They do that alot with cancelled series.

  6. Re:It seems like all this does... on How to Turn Your PC into a Mac · · Score: 1

    Try Fiesty Fawn running Xcfe. It runs very well on the 6 year old beat up Dell tomorrow I play around with.

  7. Awww geeee..... on IBM Files DVD Spam Patent Application · · Score: 1

    Thanks IBM; this is just what I wanted for Christmas.

    All I got you were these raspberries.

    pppppppppppppppfffffbbbbbtttttt!

  8. and yo mama too on RIAA Afraid of Harvard · · Score: 1

    sucka fool RIAA punks. Don't mess with the Crimson!

  9. Re:So if I stop looking? on The Universe Damaged By Observation? · · Score: 1

    Forget the physicists! Millions of lawyers are seeing dollar signs. Think of the damages they can sue those aliens for. The destruction of our universe must be monetized.

  10. Re:Did they actually play it? on US Senators Take On The ESRB Over Manhunt 2 · · Score: -1, Troll

    Fuck experts or playing games, I hope they deal with the real issues instead, like our failing economic policies, failing health care system, failing occupations of Iraq and Afghanistan, failing trade policies, failing dollar, and this miserable failure of an illegitimate presidency. I bet you do really well with the lib-tard skanks. I don't see any solutions from you so I'll just assume you're foaming at the mouth and not rational.

    Sigh, there goes my karma.
  11. Re:Not enough...sure... on Croal vs. Totilo - The Portal Letters · · Score: 1

    I'll give Will Wright a call and see what he can do with procedural puzzle generating. It should be read by 2018.

  12. Not enough...sure... on Croal vs. Totilo - The Portal Letters · · Score: 2, Interesting

    Someone else on /. in an earlier thread about Portal pointed out that 500 levels wouldn't have been enough. But that many would have drowned out the story. I've played through Portal about 8 times now and find something new each time. That kind of craftsmanship isn't an accident.

    Hopefully Valve starts releasing bonus maps or *gasp!* episodic content. [Insert Flame Here] So far the Portal community maps aren't very impressive. But the full SDK should fix that.

  13. Too late on FSF Reaches Out to RIAA Victims · · Score: 3, Insightful

    I like the FSF but where were they with this a few months ago.

  14. Re:welcome to slashdot on Riding Shotgun With the Google Street View Beetle · · Score: 1

    I have! The only thing it got me was a visit from the vice squad and sexual harassment suit.

  15. Re:No coincidence on Judge Rules That I Own Slashdot · · Score: 2, Funny

    So you're one of the codgers who didn't feel the need to install the extra wide gauge "tubes".
    Way to be short sighted.


    I kid...

  16. Depends on how he plays... on Murdoch's New Internet Strategy for the WSJ · · Score: 2, Insightful

    If Murdoch doesn't play around with the newsroom the WSJ should continue its tradition of excellence. I've been reading the NY Times since it went free online and have been anticipating the same for the WSJ.

  17. Re:'That modeled the wrong behavior' on Sesame Street DVD Deemed Adult-Only Entertainment · · Score: 1

    Not to mention Cruella DeVille smoking a cigarette.

    I smoke a pipe and I don't think my example has ever caused any children to smoke.

  18. It balances out on Do Tiny URL Services Weaken Net Architecture? · · Score: 2, Insightful

    Bad webpage designers will get what they deserve in the event of a catastrophic failure.

    Good webpage designers will not be adversely affected; it may even help to get some of the crap of the Web.

  19. The Chinese... on What's the Best Way to Recycle Old Tech in the US? · · Score: 0

    Apparently the best way is to have the Chinese turn it into cadmium laced jewelry. http://www.democratandchronicle.com/apps/pbcs.dll/article?AID=/20071116/NEWS01/711160345/1002/NEWS

  20. Needs more cowbell on Half a Million Database Servers 'Have no Firewall' · · Score: 0

    My server is in county lock up for exposing itself.

    Thank you; I'll be here all week.

  21. Re:Oh really? on Genetically Engineered Mouse is Not Scared of Cats · · Score: 1

    Cats are programmed to attack short jerky motions, such as mice running, and anything which freezes has a good chance of being ignored. So cats are alot like Velociraptors...no wonder I don't trust them.
  22. Think about the future on The Crafting of Half-Life 2 - Episode Two · · Score: 5, Funny

    Go to OpenGL you idiots. Don't lock yourselves into the Combine's propritary format.

    WWGFD?

  23. Dungeons & Dragons on Intel Launches Power-Efficient Penryn Processors · · Score: 1

    Intel engineers should not be allowed to name the new chip lines after their D&D characters.

  24. new meaning on Even the Masseuse is a Multimillionaire at Google · · Score: 3, Funny

    This gives new meaning to "massaging the data".

  25. Crazy Old Man on Dvorak Says gPhone is Doomed · · Score: 2, Funny

    ...Get off my lawn you damn kids!...
