    Yeah, using communications technology to communicate with people! Who thought that up?! ~~

  2. Re:Heroin? on Crowdsourcing the Department of Public Works · · Score: 1

    LSD has never caused a death by overdose, and no neurotoxicity is known.

    Maybe, but you're unlikely to fuck your head up with Ecstasy the same way that you might with LSD.

  3. Re:Gushing, ignoring the important issues on Review of Adobe Creative Suite 5 · · Score: 1

    Yeah, but...is it actually any good?

  4. Re:Some of P. K. Dick's stuff is great, but how ab on Hollywood's Growing Obsession With Philip K. Dick · · Score: 2, Funny

    Not as bad as Andy McNab. A chapter and a half of a guy sitting in a bush, shitting in a plastic bag. Thrilling stuff.

  5. Re:I want a sum-of-all-knowledge-opedia. on Aussie Tech-Focused Wiki Launched · · Score: 2, Informative

    Talking of Australia, Batman and Wikipedia...

    Did you know Melbourne, Australia (or technically the town that became Melbourne) was founded by John Batman and he named the land Batmania. I shit you not.

  6. Re:Look at last fiew SI prefixes on Yoctonewton Detector Smashes Force Sensing Record · · Score: 4, Insightful

    What will we do after Apple makes the iPod Yocto?

    Isn't it obvious? We'll bitch about how useless and locked-down it is whilst simultaneously posting at least two stories a day that say how it is changing the world.

    Scorchio!

  8. Re:Relativity... on Man-Made Atomic Clocks the Best In the Universe · · Score: 1

    Maybe I'm missing something...but doesn't that only give you the difference between the two? It doesn't show you which one is true.

  9. Re:Night Driver FTW on Videogame Driving Skills Don't Apply In Real Life · · Score: 2, Funny

    I tried parachuting out of a moving car after playing Just Cause 2.

    Didn't work so well...

  11. Re:How are we supposed to understand this? on Wikileaks Releases Video of Journalist Killings · · Score: 1

    but the purpose of war is to kill the enemy.

    No it isn't. It isn't at all. Killing is the means, not the purpose.

    An army that can win a war without killing anyone are the best army there can be.

  12. Re:Unfortunately ... on Game CEO Sees "Gamification" of Work and Military · · Score: 1

    We've always been playing Counter Strike against Eurasia.

  13. Re:OK.... on France Bans Use of 2.0 · · Score: 1

    It's April Fool's Day, a day for amusing pranks and jokes. Why is that relevant?

    Oops, posted AC somehow...

    You need something else?

  16. Re:WTF slashdot on France Bans Use of 2.0 · · Score: 1

    Yeah, having it in the one post would have been funny. Having it in every post just makes surreptitiously browsing from work harder.

  17. Re:Electronic Music Production on Apple iPad Reviewed · · Score: 1

    I've tried using my brothers HTC Hero as a wireless touch controller for Ableton Live over Wifi. I was surprised how smoothly it worked. I'm thoroughly underwhelmed by the iPad but if there is some decent controller software for it I might take another look.

  18. Re:Ok, so... on Apple iPad Reviewed · · Score: 1

    So...it's like a big iPhone with less features that costs more?

  19. Re:Multi-tasking on Apple iPad Reviewed · · Score: 1

    None of them would know if the machine was capable of multitasking or not, as long as their open apps came up in the same state that they left them.

    Apart from when the reason they left the app was because it was doing something lengthy and they wanted it to do it in the background while they did something else...in which case finding the app in the same state would be exactly what they don't want...which is kind of the point.

  20. Re:Back when... on Office Guardian Angel Worse Than Clippy · · Score: 1

    I used to have Hal saying "Human error". Aah, good times.

    The fact that I'm not slowly moving sideways?

  23. Re:That's a relief on NZ Draft Bill Rules Out Software Patents · · Score: 1

    Is that because [...] you like to [...] give the value of your efforts to your boss or your customers?

    Isn't that why they're paying you?

  24. Re:Reboot???!! on MS Issues Emergency IE Security Update · · Score: 1

    And yes, that was a rhetorical question.

    Sure but is this?
