  1. TV Party tonight! on Mining the Cognitive Surplus · · Score: 1

    We've got nothing better to do, than watch tv and have a couple of brews...
    /black flag

  2. oblig on Pentagon Manipulating TV Analysts · · Score: 1

    Long live the new flesh!

  3. Re:LimeWire? on 1.6 Million PCs Track Popular P2P Clients · · Score: 1

    My school didn't have a DC++ network either. And 4 of my peers didn't have all electronic equipment confiscated from their dorms by the FBI never to see any of it again.

  4. Affleck on Schoolboy Corrects NASA's Math On Killer Asteroid · · Score: 1

    I propose we launch Ben Affleck into it. The asteroid will be sure to avoid Earth after this, I know I would.

  5. The Real WTF on Oklahoma Leaks 10,000 Social Security Numbers · · Score: 1

    TRWTF is that OK's DoC did nothing (nothing effective) to stop using SQL statements in the URL's querystring, UNTIL the author showed how manipulating the vulnerability not only put the criminals' personal info at risk, but also the employees' info.

  6. Adapt on Climate Change Finally Impacts Important Industry · · Score: 1

    Maybe I don't understand everything about the issue at hand, but if climate change is such a threat to crops in their current locations, won't it just force the industry to move the farms to areas that used to be too cold to grow at?
    Adapt, or stagnate and complain.

  7. Re:This has to be proof... on Google StreetView Is In Your Driveway · · Score: 1

    The van could have driven in the grass briefly to turn around, but I'm guessing Google haters would complain about vandalism.

  8. Re:Idiots. on Creative Vista Driver Modder Speaks Out · · Score: 5, Funny

    mailing it to a charity (for the deaf?) would be a better solution IMHO

  9. Re:attn computer scientists: stop renaming stuff on Augmenting Data Beats Better Algorithms · · Score: 5, Funny

    Say what you want about computer scientists, but without them you'd probably be complaining on a chalkboard.

  10. Re:Illegally? on South Park To Be Available Online Free and Legal · · Score: 2, Funny

    He's no longer Flamebait, but a Troll.
    That makes me a saaad panda.

  11. Re:Also from the article... on China to Use Silver Iodide & Dry Ice to Control the Weather · · Score: 0

    I don't have any articles to cite, but I think they're being evicted (temporarily, I hope, if I'm right), because of the pollution caused from those citizens going to and from work.

  12. Re:Silence of the Lambs on Computers May Thwart 2010 Census · · Score: 0

    not that it matters, but I thought it was a "nice Chianti"

  13. Auctions on Wireless Auction Ends With Mixed Feelings · · Score: 0

    Maybe my definition of 'auction' is wrong, but I thought that all auctions favored deep pockets, regardless of attached rules.
    Can a former mail carrier really bring the $ to the table to beat Verizon?

  14. Re:If you patent something on Sony Blu-ray Under Patent Infringement Probe · · Score: 0

    But you nor I know that is the case with this professor. I know what happens to you and me when I assume,
    but since this professor is obviously tech-savvy, and since there's been decent media coverage surrounding Blu-Ray vs HD DVD, I'm very tempted to assume she was aware, and waited on purpose.
  15. Interesting on "Manhattan Project" For Prosthetic Arms · · Score: 0

    The action requires little to no attention. Not so for the wearer of current prosthetic arms, for whom the act of taking a sip of soda precludes any other activity... A much cheaper invention that solves this problem comes to mind.... a straw.
  16. Re:What do you expect? on Microsoft Accepts Flash For Windows Mobile · · Score: 0

    That's exactly why one wouldn't expect it from Microsoft :P

  17. wtf? on The Party Princess · · Score: 0

    that girl should be shot. she's clearly got no sense.

  18. Sweet on Space Planes to Meet 'Big Demand' For Tourism · · Score: 0

    One step closer to my namesake becoming a reality.

  19. Re:Bizarre and hysterical rant on Google Street a Slice of Dystopian Future? · · Score: 0

    if you don't want to be seen sunbathing, do it indoors

  20. Re:He's an idiot on Customer Loses Xbox 360 Artwork During Repair · · Score: -1, Flamebait

    mod parent up
    this is a fucking dumb article, about a fucking dumb person

  21. Re:No kidding on Teen Phone Phreak Targeted by the FBI · · Score: 1

    from the kid's phone phreak 'mentor': "Instead of looking at him as some malicious kid who's out to do no good, maybe you should look at him as a 17-year-old blind kid with an addiction," says Daniels. "Maybe the adults should think about that." Ha

  22. Re:Obligatory on Killer Military Robot Arms Race Underway? · · Score: 1

    What about the 0th law? The one that the robots themselves realized. It allows them to kill/harm humans if it benefits humanity.

  23. Re:Personal Fabrication on The Beckoning Promise of Personal Fabrication · · Score: 1

    Yes, I, for one, watch plenty of porn.

  24. nintendo on Wii Homebrew Takes Several Leaps Forward · · Score: 2, Funny

    Nintendo is sure to be pissed, or wii'd?

  25. Re:/. defense on Hans Reiser and the "Geek Defense" Strategy · · Score: 1

    "threat to society" is pretty close to the definition of "anti-social". I think you mean asocial.
