    Capsized? Like a ship? Be sure not to put it's anchor down on any of your LAN wires.

  2. Re:vista ultra-lite - rm /dev/sda1/* on Software Tool Strips Windows Vista To Bare Bones · · Score: 0

    I don't quite understand the relation of what portion of my comment you quoted and what you replied with, but then again, my Linux experience extends to an install of Ubuntu and never going back to it again except to change it so it boots to Windows by default, so it could be related.

  3. Re:AVG not free for use on LANs or outside the hom on Software Tool Strips Windows Vista To Bare Bones · · Score: 0

    How does making the user use the free version only at home, or not in a network force him to get the expensive business lincense and "Internet Security" suite?

    Couldn't I just cut those costs of virus protection by using Avira, or AVG, or one of the many other free anti-viruses on the Internet, along with a free anti-spyware checker? Not unlike you proposing we run Linux, a free OS. We could even be a smart user and not get viruses and malware!

  5. Remember... on Charter Accidentally Wipes 14K Email Accounts · · Score: 0

    The email most safe from spam is the one that doesn't exist.

  6. Re:Sounds like... on Hasbro Using DMCA on Facebook Game Apps · · Score: 0

    Don't Go comparing Apples to Apples now, or to express my meaning better, don't take a Risk with an out there pun.

    Personally, I've never checked to see if what comes out is heavier...

  8. Re:Runs on Windows? on Computer Glitch Halts Seattle New Year's Fireworks · · Score: 1, Insightful
    Obviously, you go for what suits you best, and now you two choices:

    1. You can either be a childish homophobe

    2. You can say nothing.

  9. Re:Y2K finally hits!! on iPhone Wants To Hang On To the Old Year · · Score: 0

    It's funny, this time, for Y2K-and-one-one-twenty-fifths, nobody expected anything!

    Blah Blah Capitalism, blah blah evil corporations, blah blah series of tubes blah yakity yak is bad.

    And what house? Should be read "your basement."

  12. Re:Wait... on Necessity of Dark Energy Questioned · · Score: 1

    Real funny. But what is the question?

  13. All I personally would need on How Would You Design Your Dream Office? · · Score: 3, Funny

    A mini-fridge, a computer, and the phone. In fact, screw the computer and phone.

  14. I for one... on Information Overload Predicted Problem of the Year for 2008 · · Score: 3, Funny

    welcome our new information overlord. Wait, I read that wrong.

  15. Re:Next time work "with 2K" on 1 more thing on Ken Levine's Acceptance Speech That Never Was · · Score: 1

    The PC version of the game was only allowed to have 2 activations at any given time. Fun anti-user nonsense, that is. If anyone could pressure the publisher into giving up on such BS, I would hope it's the developer. Gamers definitely can't.
    Which was later patched: expanded to five, and no one has complained about it in months.
  16. Re:hmmmm.... on The LCD Panel vs. The Crossbow · · Score: 1

    Informing and subtle trolling. Nice.

    Because at the time many of us we on our 25Mb Hotmail and Yahoo accounts, and bigger sounded better.

  18. Re:What will happen then? on Only 2 in 500 College Students Believe in IP · · Score: 1

    Scratch that. The RIAA will have to, as music labels aren't losing money anyways, considering a pirate always would have pirated and never paid.

  19. This story on OLPC a Hit in Remote Peruvian Village · · Score: 1

    It makes me feel warm inside despite having no contact or influence with the OLPC project.

  20. Re:Can't stop myself...oh the Humoranity! on Light-based Quantum Circuit Does Basic Maths · · Score: 1

    You must be pun-ished for that.

    In hindsight, Thinking about how AA works, I may have just owned myself there.

  22. Re:Maybe I'll join back up... on Army Opens New Office of Videogames · · Score: 1, Insightful

    I've always felt AA was different from real combat in that in one of them, you don't respawn.

    I think it's fine as long as it gets done for the people who are still alive.
