  1. Re:internet has obsoleted the necessity for contac on France and Japan Planning New Supersonic Jet · · Score: 1

    It was my understanding that southwest treats its employees *much* better than walmart does...

  2. zerg on Protecting Your Personal Info While Traveling? · · Score: 1

    Someone out there must have a list of the default passwords for all the keyloggers... Just fire up notepad and type these passwords in. If nothing happens, you're probably in the clear.

  3. zerg on Creative Commons & Webcomics · · Score: 1

    So, you have a panel on webcomics, and only one of the five people there happens to be a webcomics guy.

    (to say nothing of the quality of his work, oy!)

  4. zerg on 2000-Year-Old Judean Date Tree Seed Sprouts · · Score: 1

    Maybe after The War Against Terrorism is over, the Israelis can export this technology to Iraq...

  5. zerg on The Evil in E-Mail · · Score: 1

    Anyone who's watched the classic documentary "Enemy of the State" knows that the NSA is already eavesdropping on all of us for the words "Allah", "bomb" and "President". That's why I always greet people in cyberspace w/ "Allah bomb President!"

  6. zerg on New NASA Admin Griffin Cleans House · · Score: 3, Insightful

    Does anyone have the political affiliations of the people who were fired?

  7. zerg on Who Isn't Paying Attention to ROBOTS.TXT? · · Score: 3, Interesting

    The next question should be, "How do we make them regret their non-compliance?"

  8. zerg on The Epic Story of Black and White · · Score: 1

    It turns out that the very last game in the series is actually (temporally) the first! And when people play it, they'll be all "Whoa!"

  9. zerg on Effective C++, Third Edition · · Score: 1

    Does the release of the 3rd Edition mean they'll update the -Weffc++ switch for gcc?

  10. zerg on FBI Conducts Feasibility Study on Project Sentinel · · Score: 2, Insightful

    FBI Director Robert Mueller told lawmakers he is unable yet to place a price tag on the Sentinel project.

    If Mr. Mueller wasn't a doofus, he'd call up Google and ask them for a quote. The system would wind up deployed before the year was over.

    Maybe they should make me Director of the FBI.
  11. zerg on Voice Actors Vote on VG Strike · · Score: 1

    Solidarity!

  12. Re:"Trickle" from Bell Labs? on Rob Pike's Excellent Adventure · · Score: 1

    When exactly did Einstein build a real system out of his crazy relativity ideas? :p

  13. Re:"Trickle" from Bell Labs? on Rob Pike's Excellent Adventure · · Score: 1

    Maybe a Nobel prize will come out of the telescope work he does in his free time?

  14. zerg on Transmeta Closing Up Shop · · Score: 1

    Does this mean Transmeta laptops will be really cheap now?

  15. [OT] Re:This just in, North Korea has an army too! on North Korean Hackers Rival CIA? · · Score: 1

    Those who love their country know that there's no such thing as "good enough".

    Those who hate everything good about America tend to rant on and on about liberals.

  16. Re:Remember Iraq? on North Korean Hackers Rival CIA? · · Score: 1
    "Iraq has the 4th largest army in the world". That's what they kept telling us before the first Iraq war.
    To survive a war w/ Iran, they absolutely needed to have one that big.

    Keep those numbers in mind whenever the current administration tells you that the insurgency is populated by dead-enders who are fighting so hard because the insurgency itself is on its last legs...
  17. zerg on North Korean Hackers Rival CIA? · · Score: 1

    He means, "They're not very good, but ignorant sheep will probably assume that they are."

    Now why he would want to say something like that is, IMO, a more interesting question...

  18. zerg on Nintendogs Pummels Sony Products · · Score: 1

    Eh, I'm more interested in "DS Training For Adults: Work Your Brain"... I hope it comes out in the US.

    Here is where I first heard of it...

  19. zerg on Korean MSN Site Hacked · · Score: 1

    This wouldn't have been that big of a deal if Microsoft's security push came w/ Trust in a Bottle...

  20. zerg on Top Mythconceptions On VG Patent Protection · · Score: 1

    http://dictionary.reference.com/search?q=mythconce ption

    (not nearly as cool as "ginormous"...)

  21. zergs on Europe Home to Majority of Zombies · · Score: 2, Funny

    Guns are outlawed in most of Europe, right? How will they defend themselves?

  22. [OT] Re:And I helped make it happen! on Texas Wireless Ban Has Failed · · Score: 1

    Counter-terrorists win!

    Good job!

  23. Re:[OT] Re:Is that count fair? on Independent Cartoonists Band Together for Success · · Score: 1
    Wait, I thought it was a Zombie outbreak that got the Republicans into office in the first place?
    If you watched Romero's trilogy, then you saw that the undead retained some semblance of brain function...
  24. [OT] Re:Is that count fair? on Independent Cartoonists Band Together for Success · · Score: 1

    I swear to God, I pray every night for a zombie outbreak, because it's the only way Democrats are evar gonna take back the White House!

  25. zerg on Independent Cartoonists Band Together for Success · · Score: 3, Informative

    If we can dream for a moment that David Willis won't turn Shortpacked! into another infinite loop of "I can't have sex w/ you because I love you" like his other comics, then Blank Label might actually have a decent comic. 1 out of 10 ain't that bad...

    Modern Tales has American Born Chinese, Ice, Narbonic, No Stereotypes, Odd Jobs, Paradigm Shift and Wahoo Moris. 7 out of 63.
    Graphic Smash has Aces High, Ascent, Digger, Fans, Gun Street Girl, Johnny Saturn, Life's a Croc, Little White Knight, Magellan, Rip & Teri, The Jaded, The Replacements and Vigil. 13 out of 31.
    Girlamatic has Jupiter, L'il Mell, Sevenplains and The Stiff. 4 out of 23.

    YMMV.
