    So edgy.
    So hard-lined!

    You really stuck it to that dead guy! Go hog wild!

  2. Re:Why Aaron Swartz? on RMS, Aaron Swartz Among 2013 Internet Hall of Fame Inductees · · Score: 1

    Should naive commentators who are anonymously cowardly in the face of Slashdot be considered for any mod points?

  3. Re:Hahaha on The Glorious Return of the Twinkie · · Score: 1

    This is exactly what the summary sounds like, quite the ostentatious start to the week.

  4. Re:Over $400 mega dollars (U.S.) on The Glorious Return of the Twinkie · · Score: 4, Funny

    I honestly have not noticed that until just right now.

    Oh man I need a minute to digest this.

  5. Geek Food Staple? on The Glorious Return of the Twinkie · · Score: 4, Insightful

    Could you not just write "Bazinga! 42! All Your Base!! xD!" instead?
    If anything, the Twinkie is the food staple to those who are too nostalgic or stupid to know to buy ANYTHING ELSE.

    The sturdy main component of the foundation to the geek four food groups of sugar, fat, caffeine and bacon

    Ugh. I feel ashamed this is in the summary.

    cool.

  7. Re:Misses the point on Android Fragmentation Isn't Hurting Its Adoption · · Score: 1

    I actually just upgraded from my Nexus One to a Nexus 4 this week, because of that internal memory problem. It wasn't a problem when facebook and GMaps were 10mb, but now Facebook is 12mb, and Maps is near 30mb, and you can't uninstall them, just the updates!

    And I also had "All Your Base Are Belong To Us" on my backpack.

    In ten years things can change! I get my pizza in circles now.

    I was wondering what kind of person would still use the tagline, "relax, we understand j00", and then you come along and use numbers in your words as well.

    That beautiful CRT bulge.

    But what about that one CRT you keep around for the pre-hd consoles?

  12. Re:THE NOISE on Ask Slashdot: Does LED Backlight PWM Drive You Crazy? · · Score: 1

    I guess it's not a lot thankfully, but now they have become rare enough that when I'm near one it's jarringly loud. To think my entire CRT-enjoying childhood I used to enjoy "knowing" when a CRT was turned on in a room.

    I still won't miss it when it's gone!

  13. Re:Whiny little bitch on Ask Slashdot: Does LED Backlight PWM Drive You Crazy? · · Score: 1, Insightful

    If you wanted to use the phrase "literally" to mean "figuratively", couldn't you have just said "figuratively"?

  14. Re:No on Ask Slashdot: Does LED Backlight PWM Drive You Crazy? · · Score: 0, Flamebait

    These same people also will complain about "wifi sickness". Everyone has to be unique in some special way~

  15. THE NOISE on Ask Slashdot: Does LED Backlight PWM Drive You Crazy? · · Score: 1

    I cannot wait until I get old enough that I cannot hear the whine of CRT. I don't care what that means for my hearing, that noise alone is just... gross feeling in my head.

  20. Re:And You Are Some Magic Insect Sorting Entity? on UN Says: Why Not Eat More Insects? · · Score: 1

    So....I typed all that to type this:

    Bugs have very simple nervous systems, and as such don't suffer nearly as much as, say, cows. So, the depth of evil in eating a bug is not very far above the evil of eating a plant, and still probably less than the evil of driving your car down the road. That, combined with the fact that the amount of bugs in your vegan food is low enough that you don't notice anyway, you can write off that level of evil as "rounds down to zero." :)

    This is a lot of hoops you gotta jump yourself through just so you don't feel bad killing something to survive.

  23. Spreading FUD with Facts? on Boston Replacing Microsoft Exchange With Google Apps · · Score: 1

    More and more customers aren't buying that FUD.

    But then the summary goes on to explain that another company re-neg'd on this deal... indicating it's not all FUD?

    I don't care about gdocs or office, but how could say it's FUD, when LA has switched back to office because of actual - documented - problems?
