  1. Re:Code Red Infects Slashdot! on Code Red II: Shells for the Taking · · Score: 1

    Microsoft is a bad neihbor, whose allowed their yard to fill with filth and trash, subjecting the people around them to the vermin and roaches that breed within their unkempt property. It is on this day that the internet will begin to sputter and fail in places due to the tremendous burdon Microsofts incompetence has placed upon it.
    Microsoft's products spew pollution into the information space like a burning mountain of tires.


    Yeah and the funny thing is, they may be doing it on porpose, seriously. Just check out the last Cringely article at PBS on this subject.

  2. But our sun won't be able to do the same on Stellar Apocalypse Shows Water · · Score: 1

    Because according to a previous /. alert story, our galaxy is gonna collapse with Andromeda in 2 billion years, so our sun now is out o' time to burn in 5 billion years. Oh well, too bad, was looking forward to it...

  3. Re:That's easy to answer! on Comcast Bidding To Buy AT&T's Cable-Modem Unit · · Score: 1

    Hey! Why was my post moderated as a troll? I gave my honest opinion! Can we disagree without being labeled trolls in here or what? So much for freedom of speech :-(

  4. That's easy to answer! on Comcast Bidding To Buy AT&T's Cable-Modem Unit · · Score: 1

    They both suck. Consumers always lose, so it is a lose-lose situation. Any more questions?

  5. I don't know but on Nuclear Booster Rockets · · Score: 1

    The rest of the articles on that New Scientist webpage look like the National Enquirer of science. Just how credible are this guys? The article seems a bit to sensationalistic to be all true.

  6. R.I.P. Napster on Napster Bans Non-Native Clients · · Score: 2

    This is NOT the same free trading Napster I knwe.

    R.I.P. Napster. Have fun RIIA.

  7. Napster R.I.P. on Napster Signs Indie Deal · · Score: 2

    This sure is not the same ole Napster I used when it first came out. Napster was ALL about free trading.

    Napster is dead. R.I.P.

  8. Re:How the Egyptions did it - alternate view on Caltech Team Raises 6900-Pound Obelisk, By Kite · · Score: 1

    The problem with this is they left drawings with ramps for construction but I am not aware of any with construction kites.

  9. Planks constant on Star In A Jar · · Score: 1

    That's the number of planks it takes to build your backyard deck, which is ALWAYS (that's why it's a constant) more than what you already bought, so you need to make ONE MORE TRIP to the home improvement store.

    Same for nails constant and screws constant.

  10. Well, think about it... on Legitimacy Of ICANN? · · Score: 1

    The Internet can be divided into those who say ICANN and those who say ICANN'T ;-)

  11. Re:selfish people on Make Way for Fiber · · Score: 1

    Maybe you just have a really bad sense of humor?

    Heh, maybe, but more likely, moderators don't read the guidelines: attempts at humor are NOT offtopic.

  12. Re:selfish people on Make Way for Fiber · · Score: 1

    I hear ya. I've given up on making any sense from the moderation system. Everytime I make a "funny" post, it gets moded down as either offtopic or troll. If I make an offtopic comment, it gets funny ratings. Mods on crack, or maybe a clueless system.

  13. Re:Hangups on What Do You Do To Relieve Lower Back Pain? · · Score: 1

    Thanks for your advise. I am not nearsighted, and have consulted first with both my medical doctor and my chiropractor. I used to suffer from chronic back pain. It has not gone away completly, but it has gone down to the point where I am not aware of it.

  14. Re:Try instead Glucosamine on What Do You Do To Relieve Lower Back Pain? · · Score: 1

    That IS correct. However, it treats the CAUSE of the pain. It is not a painkiller, but it will eventually make the pain either go away or go down a lot.

    Painkillers only MASK the pain, so you can injure yourself even more over time.

  15. Hangups on What Do You Do To Relieve Lower Back Pain? · · Score: 1

    I use an inversion table called HANGUPS. You just hang from your ankles upside down. It both streches and straightens your spinal column.

    I have been using it for about a year and it is great. Also getting a Glucosamine supplement. Completly natural and releives both lower back and wrist pains.

  16. Try instead Glucosamine on What Do You Do To Relieve Lower Back Pain? · · Score: 1

    It is completly natural and won't mess up your brain.

  17. Re:Not a big deal on Apple Dropping CRTs for LCDs · · Score: 1

    wow, geek music!

  18. Woah, imagine the size of that magnetic field on Superconducting Power Cable in Detroit · · Score: 2

    Heh, if you happen to have a steel plate in your head, better make sure you don't walk over that underground superconducting cable, else your head could get glued to the ground.

    That will be funny. Also, imagine all the lose coins that this thingy will collect...

  19. Re:interesting..but.. on Superconducting Power Cable in Detroit · · Score: 1

    Of course, if you are a Chem E and you I am wrong, then please enlighten us!!

    uh? Are you the grammar nazi or not? Second post with a second gramatical error.

    Tsk tsk tsk

  20. Re:who watches TV anymore? on Lone Gunmen Get the Axe From Fox · · Score: 2

    News? I usually watch PBS, and we even get the BBC news for half hour, that added to the 1 hr PBS news, takes away most of the stupid local news time in my house.

    By the way, BBC news IS hilarious! ;-)

  21. Re:who watches TV anymore? on Lone Gunmen Get the Axe From Fox · · Score: 1

    I've cut the cable off and set up a roof antena... Free TV! What a concept. Same crap, but free.

  22. Re:(OT) DC distribution on Mundie Responds · · Score: 2

    I think it's a funny flamebait that's not on topic.

  23. It was on TV last nite on Making Joysticks Obsolete · · Score: 2

    It really works already. Also they were showing interfaces directly into the brain with an implanted microchip that let deaf people hear.

    The future is now.

  24. Re:Time shifting on Digital TV Approaches · · Score: 2

    I am the only one enjoying PBS? Damn, I feel weird!
