  1. Baby Boomers on White House Pressuring Registrars To Block Sites · · Score: 1

    I can't wait until the baby boomer generation dies off and my generation can become political leaders.

  2. Solution I found on Buried By The Brigade At Digg · · Score: 2, Insightful

    I figured out a solution about two year ago.. I just stopped visiting the site and the problem went away.

  3. $2m, not that much on Google Donates $2 Million To the Wikimedia Foundation · · Score: 2, Insightful

    because Google makes $500m a year off typos...

  4. Already had to live through the steroid era on Super Strength Substance Approaching Human Trials · · Score: 1

    Now baseball will enter the myostatin era....

  5. Re:Not the cost of the computer on Chrome OS Designed To Start Microsoft Death Spiral · · Score: 1

    Then Linux is actually the most expensive choice? :)

  6. Obvious Solution on Nikon Unveils a Camera With Built-In Projector · · Score: 1

    It may drain the battery but uhh...

    You could just plug it in for your long slideshows :)

  7. Re:The City on RadioShack To Rebrand As "The Shack"? · · Score: 1

    Don't forget Pizza Hut, rebranding some of it's stores "The Hut".

    "The new "Hut" stores will be more than simply places to place a delivery order, according to MediaWeek. They will include televisions that broadcast programs such as "Wheel of Fortune" and "Entertainment Tonight."

    Ahh Entertainment Tonight, me and my friends haven't missed an episode in years. Laugh.

  8. Re:It's true!! on Games Fail To Portray Gender and Ethnic Diversity · · Score: 1

    Affirmative action the video game!

    Play as a black, native american, latino, or even a woman!

    Sure they might not be qualified for the task at hand, but at least there is some diversity in your game!!

  9. Pssh, I'm not worried on Scientists Worry Machines May Outsmart Man · · Score: 1

    I have UAC, that keeps me safe

  10. Let me make a run at a joke! on Laser Ignition May Replace the Spark Plug · · Score: 2, Funny

    "So the spark plug could soon join the fax machine in the pantheon of antiquated technologies that will never completely disappear."

    I always get my secretary to page me when I get a new fax. Then I head over to the closest payphone and give her a call to see what it says. Generally its just spam :(

  11. Can't afford another pyramid on Reasons To Hesitate On Zer01's Unlimited Mobile Offer · · Score: 1

    I already give all my money to Amway Global :(

  12. Re:And this is different from what? on How Apple's App Review Is Sabotaging the iPhone · · Score: 1

    Yea and then people bitch about how unsecure windows is on all levels and how these security flaws create problems.

    What we need is a mobile phone O/S that lets you install everything you want in the world, automatically filters through crappy apps, and will make sure the program is robust before it installs it!

    Can't have everything, when you add one aspect you take away from another.

  13. Re:yeah... on US Videogame Sales Have Biggest Drop In 9 Years · · Score: 1

    Yea but what will still happen is... the titles get bought for $39.99 and then the re-seller retail stores take the profits from there for many years to come. Gamestop drove up the prices of video games... there is a valid reason they sell the new ones for so much money.

  14. Re:How the... on Is Cataclysm the Next World of Warcraft Expansion? · · Score: 1

    better than michael jackson news... but not by much

  15. Super on Free Wi-Fi For the Residents of Venice, Italy · · Score: 1

    Jealous

  16. Re:Obvious on SoftMaker Office 2008 vs. OpenOffice.org 3.1 · · Score: 1

    Oh wow a self righteous linux post who saw that coming on slashdot.

    In most circumstances you get a better product when it cost money than if it is free, in all aspects of life. There are of course exceptions to the rule.

  17. Obvious on SoftMaker Office 2008 vs. OpenOffice.org 3.1 · · Score: 1

    Wait, something that cost $80 performs better than something that is free? Just blew my mind with this article.

  18. Not enough data on Need a Favor? Talk To My Right Ear · · Score: 1, Insightful

    176 people... How is that enough to put the data up to more than just coincidence? Repeat the experiment 10 more times, then it might be a little more credible.

  19. Sometimes change is good... on Ray Bradbury Loves Libraries, Hates the Internet · · Score: 0, Troll

    I wonder how he feels about African Americans... I have have a good guess.

  20. Re:what is going on ? on Iran Moves To End "Facebook Revolution" · · Score: 1

    http://tehranbureau.com/2009/06/13/faulty-election-data/

    This is about as clear cut as it gets that it was fraud.

  21. Think of the whales :( on First Floating Wind Turbine Buoyed Off Norway · · Score: 1

    One whale will die, whole project will be shot.

  22. Car Analogy on iPhone Users Angry Over AT&T Upgrade Policy · · Score: 1

    I had an 08 Honda Accord... when I found out they were coming out with the 09 Honda Accord I was so fucking pissed! I had just spent $20,000 on this thing and they are already coming out with a new one! It was outrageous. I felt like they should have given me the 09 for free (or at least real cheap) so I went to my dealership and got all pissy in their face. They said sorry your logic is dumb. Alas nothing happened. This is stupid.

  23. Contests like these... on Protecting the Apollo Landing Sites From Later Landings · · Score: 2, Interesting

    These sort of contests work wonders towards inspiring new ideas and breaking away from old paradigms. In a free(ish) economy the main motivation is money. If you set out a prize for various pinnacles of innovation, then it is just a matter of time before they will be captured. If the goal is not achieved, then set the bounty higher. I love this idea for one and wish any attempts to gain the prize well! Break free from NASA's model, but don't step on the lunar dirt prints!

  24. Hmm on Lawsuit Says Google's Sale of Keywords Is Illegal · · Score: 2, Insightful

    Who the fuck clicks on the advertisement links?

  25. Come... on Man Arrested For Taking Photo of Open ATM · · Score: 1
