  1. The only thing you need to know.... on Where Does a Geek Find a Social Life? · · Score: -1

    ....is that all geeks are queer, so don't even bother trying to hit on girls. You're welcome.

  2. Re:Software vulnerabilities on Apple and Microsoft Release Critical Patches · · Score: 1, Insightful
    "It's easy to point fingers at Microsoft for a faulty OS, but with Apple also suddenly suffering from the same type of security problems, I have to wonder if it isn't related to the choice of application processor."

    I'll bet that's why Linux users get so many viruses.

  3. Nazi Bastards on German Gov To Ban Paintballing After Shooting · · Score: -1

    Fookin' Nazi shithead moron bastards can go fuck themselves.

  4. People who "do HTML" on What Do You Call People Who "Do HTML"? · · Score: -1

    I call them "girls" or "nancy-boys".

  5. Where on Earth.... on Microsoft Unveils "Elevate America" · · Score: -1

    ...did anyone get the idea that Microsoft and IT bear any relationship to each other?

  6. How to... on How To Argue That Open Source Software Is Secure? · · Score: -1

    First, make sure your client is properly configured, firewalled, etc. Then tell him to invite the M$ weenie to demonstrate how easily the system can be hacked.

  7. Never mind all that.... on Review of Atom-Powered Toughbook Medical Tablet · · Score: -1
    "Of course it can be dropped and doused in water"

    Never mind that. How will it stand up to being sewed inside a patient's abdomen?

  8. Re:Spyware, Adware, Antivirus, Don't use IE, Use a on Downadup Worm — When Will the Next Shoe Drop? · · Score: -1, Troll
    It's only stupid fucks who use Windows that've got infected.

    There, fixed that for you.

  9. Ubuntu and my penis. on Ubuntu Download Speeds Beat Windows XP's · · Score: 1, Funny

    For every month I use Ubuntu, my penis grows three inches longer, so every couple of months I switch back to Windows and after a few weeks, it's back to normal. I would try OS X, but a friend had it, and he turned gay.

  10. Re:question... on Apple Quietly Recommends Antivirus Software For Macs · · Score: 0
    Think of it this way. Using Linux is like marrying a virgin and both of you staying true to each other forever. One of you could still get an STD, but it won't be from screwing each other. Using Windows is like screwing a different NYC crack whore every Saturday night. You will maybe not get infected if you use enough protection.

    You're welcome.

  11. Buying from AAFES on Recourse For Poor Customer Service? · · Score: 0

    I've bought three mail-order laptops through AAFES. No hassle, you can use your Military Star card, and you have recourse through AAFES if the vendor screws up. I highly recommend ordering through AAFES to all military folks.

  12. computers from rich countries found on the ground. on The Effects of Exporting Used PCs To Africa · · Score: 0

    Maybe if they had put them inside on a desk and not outside on the ground, they wouldn't be junk

  13. Re:Details... on Vista's Security Rendered Completely Useless · · Score: 0

    "it makes any attack fairly useless on a correctly configured machine using IE. " There is no such thing as a "correctly configured" machine using IE.

  14. Gates Feeling Guilty? on Gates Issues Call For "Creative Capitalism" · · Score: -1, Troll

    Gates reminds me of the Hollywood airheads who, feeling guilty about getting so much money for doing nothing of value, attempt to buy back their souls by championing some nitwit cause. If he really wants to do something constructive, he should fix the Crapware he foisted on the world.

  15. Silly? on What Gore Didn't Say About Solar Cells · · Score: -1, Flamebait
    "An optimistic statement, but not a flat-out silly one."

    Anything Rev. Gore says that is not flat-out silly is worthy of note.

  16. Re:Vista... Microsoft's "New Coke" on Making the Switch To Windows "Workstation" 2008 · · Score: 1, Interesting
    "No, Vista is definitely a Ford Edsel"

    Not even close. Edsels were a commercial failure, but they were perfectly capable cars, on par with most American made cars of the time. Vista, to use a car analogy, is a Cadillac chassis with a Yugo engine.

  17. Good question. on Why Do We Have To Restart Routers? · · Score: 0, Redundant

    Why DO you have to reboot your routers? Mine, including a WR54GT almost never require rebooting. Occasionally, after a power outage, it's necessary, but not very often. Maybe once or twice a year, and I live in Panama, where power interruptions come fairly frequently.

  18. This should clarify things.... on Follow-up On Texas PI Law For PC Techs · · Score: -1, Flamebait

    ...for those of you who thought all the idiots were in Washington.

  19. This is a no-brainer.... on TSA Bans Flight If You Refuse To Show ID · · Score: 1

    ...which is a good thing, there being so few brains in TSA. Security theater at its best.

  20. "it's better than nothing" on Microsoft Pushes Devs With Wider IE8 Beta · · Score: 5, Insightful

    That pretty well sums up the entire Microsoft experience.

  21. Re:How about ... on Windows Vista SP1 Meeting Sour Reception In Places · · Score: 3, Funny
    "Particularly for 64bit, which was almost twice the size of the 32bit update."

    Well, let's see. 64/32 = 2. Yup, twice the size sounds about right.

  22. Let's have a show of hands. on Developers Warned over OOXML Patent Risk · · Score: 1

    OK,everyone who needed to be told that you can't trust Microsoft, raise your hand.

  23. Hooray! on Class Action Suit Against RIAA Can Proceed · · Score: -1, Redundant

    I hope she takes the Nazis to the cleaners.

  24. Well, it's a start. on VBA Going Away, Macs Now, PCs Soon · · Score: 5, Funny

    Let me know when they dump Windows.

  25. Impossible task! on No Dual-Boot XO Laptop, According to Microsoft · · Score: 5, Funny
    "Our current goal remains to provide a high-quality Windows experience on the XO device"

    I think most folks would be happy just to get a high-quality Windows experience on any computer.
