  1. Re:Sealab 2021 on Hannu H. Kari Gives The Internet 2 More Years · · Score: 1

    You mean that there's a Black Anonymous Coward?

  2. Re:Taking the Steam out... on Half-Life 2 Ship Date Confirmed · · Score: 2, Insightful
    You act as if the only aspect of this game to be exciting about is the graphics engine. What about the storyline, that made the first Half-Life so immersive and good?

    Being "wowed" by a game's graphics goes away in about a week. If there's nothing else behind it, the game kind of fades away in the minds of gamers. Think Unreal 1.

    Looks like... you also learned... how to type.......... from Shatner.......

    I'm not sure what's funnier, the post, or the fact that it's modded "informative" and not funny.

    Unless it's really true that Slashdotters are like cowboys eating beans while farting...

    Why doesn't Slashdot's Polling section start taking entries by rank? ;)

    The winner of the debate was... Cowboyneal?!?!?!?

  9. Re:Why so surprised? on Spam Over Internet Telephony (SPIT) to Come? · · Score: 1
    I wonder what would happen if it became a crime to respond to spam...

    Making it a crime to BE scammed is almost funny in my book.

  10. It's not that there isn't work in IT... on U.S. IT jobs Down 400K Since 2001 · · Score: 1

    It's just that all these qualified people getting blinded by seeing the IT section of slashdot...

  11. Re:No thanks on Cringely's P2P Backup Idea · · Score: 2, Interesting
    Encryption? Simply using GnuPG or any of the free AES encryptors out there will make it incredibly secure. If your data is sensitive enough, you should be doing this already...

    Or for that matter, why not build encryption into the system itself, so that you don't have to manually do it.

    Think Mel Brooks would actually mind that?

    After all the stories on voting tampering that are going to be posted in this section, you expect us to believe that? ;)

    Your vote is supreme. Hack the machine.

    I'm guessing Spock would win due to the nerd contingent.

    In a forum of virgin nerds, you have to give the nod to Scully.

  16. As for me, the average male... on New Ad Technology Tracks Consumer Movement · · Score: 3, Funny

    Any technology that will prevent me from ever having to see or hear a tampon or yeast infection commercial ever again is fine by my book.

    You're measuring in gigabytes, and not rotations or miles?

    What's next? You're gonna start telling me that your hard drive can do the Kessel run in less than 12 parsecs?

    So instead of "loading" the level we're now... "prebuffering" ? Doesn't this sound familiar?

    That's sunbird dude, not laserbird.

  24. Re:Some of the changes (possible spoilers) on Star Wars on DVD · · Score: 5, Funny

    I think George Lucas sees Star Wars as a mock autobiography of his life, with himself playing Darth Vader. At first, he used to be on the good side of the force. But then he became corrupt with the evils of money, and became more a machine now, twisted and evil.
