  1. And they're called? on Chinese Companies Rent White Foreigners · · Score: 5, Funny

    If the Chinese hire them to hang out around the water cooler, does that make them coolies?

  2. I'll bet it's that on Knuth Plans 'Earthshaking Announcement' Wednesday · · Score: 5, Funny

    TeX has been adopted by W3 as the new HTML 6 standard.

  3. and it's headed right for us! on Supermassive Black Hole Is Thrown Out of Galaxy · · Score: 1

    Run, you fools!

  4. Mr. Kirk should move on Ambassador Claims ACTA Secrecy Necessary · · Score: 1

    Despite being the former mayor of Dallas, it sounds like Mr. Kirk should permanently move to Washington or Chicago where he'll feel more at home.

  5. Why not infrared? on Nokia Developed Wireless Power-Harvesting Phones · · Score: 1

    Why not just have the phones suck the heat from the user's bodies? They're already sucking our lives away every time they ring.

  6. Re:suddenoutbreakofcommonsense on Cambridge, Mass. Moves To Nix Security Cameras · · Score: 2, Interesting

    Our civil liberties are doing just fine thanks

    What civil liberties? Britons have no expectation of privacy, no right of self-defense, and no right of free speech. As we say in America, "Other than that, how was the play, Mrs. Lincoln?"

  7. At the high-power end of the spectrum... on End of the Road For AMD's Geode Chip · · Score: 1

    anyone know what Intel's planning to do with the Itanium?

  8. Re:Who frigging knows? on Microsoft Lays Off Entire Flight Sim Team · · Score: 1

    Microsoft will probably come out with FSXI, but it will require you to fly with a co-pilot named Bob and Clippy will pop up from time to time saying, "It looks like you're trying to file a flight plan."

  9. Kill Zune, Save FS! on Microsoft To Exit the Zune Business? · · Score: 1

    I'm just angry that Microsoft axed the entire Flight Simulator team.

  10. A knife, you say? on A Robotic Cyberknife To Fight Cancer · · Score: 4, Funny

    Here now, what's all this then? Somebody has a knife? In the UK? No worries, a constable will be around shortly to confiscate it!

  11. But it's from EA! on The Making of Mirror's Edge · · Score: 1

    Coming from EA, it will probably be unplayable as it will require the DVD remain in the drive at all times, try to activate itself over the Internet every thirty minutes, and require a blood sample for authentication every time the game is started up.

  12. Re:RIAA/MPAA on Thai Government To Close 400 Anti-government Sites · · Score: 1

    This isn't just true in the U.S. Check the other story today that reminds us how Microsoft made several national ISO committees its bitch.
