  1. I got a full cavity search from those guys once on CBSA Reveals Some Laptop Search Info, But Not Much · · Score: 1

    They seemed to enjoy their jobs. True story.

  2. Re:Yeeeeeehaw! on Texas Tells Cape Wind "You're Not First Yet" · · Score: 1

    That wouldn't happen because of zoning.

  3. Re:Blindness on Gene Therapy Restores Sight To Blind · · Score: 5, Funny

    Easy for you to say, my wife's got the face of a saint - a Saint Bernard.

  4. I actually tried to read to RTFA on Why Making Money From Free Software Matters · · Score: 1

    In general I won't mind paying a buck or two if it means the page will load.

  5. Re:Just give us a name on Police Seize Computers From Gizmodo Editor · · Score: 1

    Well I guess that's true. But only if they value their credibility at $0 and don't pay their photoshoppers.

  6. Re:Just give us a name on Police Seize Computers From Gizmodo Editor · · Score: 1

    Not to me it doesn't. It suggests the story was worth $5000 either way.

  7. Re:Just give us a name on Police Seize Computers From Gizmodo Editor · · Score: 1

    Before they opened the phone nobody knew if it was a hoax, publicity stunt, or actual lost prototype.
    So really it's like looking inside a lost wallet for an id before returning it to the owner.
    I know you don't usually photograph and blog about lost wallet - but that's not illegal.

  8. Re:Security through obscurity? on Don't Talk To Aliens, Warns Stephen Hawking · · Score: 1

    Our women.

  9. If they really wanted to discredit the guy on Climate Researchers Fight Back · · Score: 1

    They should have just accused him of being chinese.

  10. Re:You don't say on South Park's Episode 201 — the Expurgated Version · · Score: 2, Insightful

    Comedy Central != America. If it did Colbert would be president and Matt and Trey would be secretary of fart jokes.

  11. Re:I think I just jizzed myself on Android Ported To iPhone · · Score: 5, Funny

    And we've apparently found a new niche: Label-conscious serial public masturbators.

  12. Re:Apple behind this? on Group Calls For Google Antitrust Probe · · Score: 1

    I'm confused as to how you paid for adwords without opening your wallet.
    Did they have your credit card info from an old gmail you sent someone?

  13. yawn on Photos of Chinese Sweatshop Used By Microsoft · · Score: 1

    apparently it's still better than being unemployed or they'd quit.

  14. Re:Ever done business in China? on China's Research Ambitions Hurt By Faked Results · · Score: 1

    The Chinese approach to ethics is almost purely situational

    Mine too. But I get called an asshole for it.

  15. not just crystal structures on China's Research Ambitions Hurt By Faked Results · · Score: 4, Funny

    Some of the Gucci handbags they make are not so authentic either.

  16. There is no cosmic plot on Maybe the Aliens Are Addicted To Computer Games · · Score: 1

    If you believe that evolution has some kind of goal, then you might just be more of an "intelligent design"-er than you think.
    BTW you can turn any agenda into a theory on why there's no aliens.
    Maybe they all succumbed to global warming.
    Maybe they all elected leaders who were born in Kenya.
    See how easy that is?

  17. Yar on The Pirate Party of Canada Is Official · · Score: 1, Flamebait

    There ain't no party like a pirate party because a pirate don't respect intellectual property laws.

  18. Re:strange diet on Japanese Guts Are Made For Sushi · · Score: 4, Funny

    Your mother swears by it.

  19. Re:Ammo for Racism on Japanese Guts Are Made For Sushi · · Score: 5, Funny

    This sort of incomplete research just feeds the view of racial uniqueness (and superiority) among Japanese and justifies their racism and discrimination against others.

    They can keep their ability to digest seaweed.
    I'll just try to get by on my > 4" weiner.

  20. Re:Applied skills on Wisconsin DA Threatens Arrests Over Sex Ed · · Score: 1

    Maybe Wisconsin needs more babies.

  21. Re:Same old on Microsoft Lost Search War By Ignoring the Long Tail · · Score: 0, Troll

    Everything about this post is wrong.
    Microsoft gives free search, browser, and email just like google. And google was happy to censor their results in order to do business in China.
    This is not a very insightful post IMHO

  22. Re:It's a lose lose on Dell To Leave China For India · · Score: 1, Flamebait

    So your solution is to take away their job opportunities too?

  23. Re:Maybe it's cart horse... on Math Skills For Programmers — Necessary Or Not? · · Score: 1

    You missed the point. The question is: do you need math to do truly interesting work? The answer is: only if you are only truly interested in math. Otherwise you will find something else truly interesting.

  24. Re:Given two programmers on Math Skills For Programmers — Necessary Or Not? · · Score: 5, Funny

    My people skills would give your math skills a wedgie.
