    Big question here. Why the hell are they demoing an exploit which can't be patched? Isn't that kind of...I don't know...nihilistic?

    FFS Get off my lawn!

    Samuel says : I've had enough of these mother******* trilobites on my mother******* lawn!

  4. ISO fails/refuses to see the issue on ISO Recommends Denying OOXML Appeals · · Score: 3, Insightful

    The problem is not whether the appeals hold any merit. The problem is the process handling the appeals (as well as any other ISO process) is flawed.

    It's like asking a paralyzed man to piss and hit toilet.

  5. AHMAGAD! on MS To Finally End OEM Licensing For Windows 3.11 · · Score: 1, Interesting

    And nothing of value was lost.

  6. First application depends on origin. on The Future of Mind Control of Physical Objects · · Score: 2, Funny

    If in America : "Scientists have recently developed a handfree TV-remote-control, so now all you fat bastards don't have to waste those precious joules operating a regular remote.

    If in Japan : "Scientists have recently developed an obedient sexbot which knows exactly what you want; tentacles sold separately."

  7. Great on Solar Power From Home Curtains · · Score: 4, Funny

    Now I just have to block out the sun to get light in my room.

    If only there was an easier way...

  8. Geeks honor : on First Images of Solar System's Invisible Frontier · · Score: 1

    the suprathermal electron sensor in the IMPACT (In-situ Measurements of Particles and CME Transients) suite of instruments on board each STEREO spacecraft detected neutral atoms originating from the same spot in the sky: the shock front and the heliosheath beyond, where the sun plunges through the interstellar medium."

    Admit it, you don't know what it means.

  9. Uuuh uuuh I got a joke! on PC Repair In Texas Now Requires a PI License · · Score: 1

    Did someone call for........Inspector Gadget? Badabum-tish!

    I mean, americans are always getting fatter, right?

  11. Re:Long story short on What Happens When You Reply To ALL of Your Spam · · Score: 2, Funny

    Burma Shave.

  12. Re:clipperz? on RMS and Clipperz Promoting Freedom In the Cloud · · Score: 1

    Part of humor is being able to laugh at one's own foibles, even if they're stereotypical. While some jokes are just plain crude/crass/mean (think: dead baby jokes)

    Yeah, think about the dead children. Whoops! I made a nono.

  13. Re:Bullshit on Lack of Sunlight Could Lead To Early Death · · Score: 1

    This dude, in my opinion, is in the pockets of the pharmaceutic industry, trying to sell us more stupid medicine we don't really need. Pfizer has patented sunlight? Oh noes!
  14. Let me guess... on DOJ To Oversee Windows 7 Development · · Score: 1

    MS is gonna put a positive spin on it with some kind of fancy "DoJ-approved" sticker to go with your new laptop.

  15. It's the Boll-effect... on Atari Tries To Supress Bad Reviews, Claims Piracy · · Score: 1

    If you venture into anything Uwe Boll has had his hands on at some point, you're doomed from the start. It got to Atari, now that company should be purged by flame to limit further contamination.

  16. I've said it before and I'll say it again... on EU Calls For Use of Open Standards · · Score: 0

    Pin-ups men! We need pin-ups!

    Sure, she definitely falls into the "milf"-category, but whenever Neelie opens her mouth anyone who cares about open standards gets a geekgasm.

  17. Bah... on HoloVizio 3D, Holodeck 1.0 to Some, Makes Its Debut · · Score: 0, Redundant

    Johnny Lee already made something similar with a Wii-mote

    Americans getting fatter, news at 11.

  19. Re:Porno Studio on What Shall We Do With the Moon Once We Get There? · · Score: -1, Troll

    And after that it's only a matter of time before Gay niggers from Outer Space appears.

  20. The idea is not as bad as it seems on Latest "Green" Power Generation — Your Feet · · Score: 4, Insightful

    Getting all nerded up and talking about "there is no free energy" only covers it partly, specificly the bad part.

    In 'reality' though there are certain bonusses to a soft walking surface.

    1. You get more traction and reduce slipping of feet (which is a problem on hard surfaces with grains of sand on it).

    2. Damage from falling is reduced.

    3. A soft surface is easier on the joints, which is important for everyone, though especially elderly and disabled people.

    Try finding one of those new fancy playgrounds with a semi-soft rubbery-like surface and walk on it. Much more comfortable to walk on compared to concrete.

  21. What?! on Cell Phone Tracking Reveals Users' Habits · · Score: 1

    So what they say is that it is possible to track my position if I carry a cellphone. Somewhere Captain Obvious is having a field day.

  22. Strange generalization on Microsoft Seeks Patent On Brain-Based Development · · Score: 1

    Microsoft argues that its 'invention' of having a Program Manager act as an arbitrator/communicator between a group of right-brained software users and left-brained software developers mimics 'the way that the brain communicates between its two distinct hemispheres Ehh...so all software-users are right-brained while the developers are left-brained?

    Sure, there is a rough schism between humanists and engineers, but acting as a mediator between those is what the field of Human-Computer Interaction has been concentrating on for years.

    Microsoft is trying to patent my education, wtf?!
  23. I found a picture of the chip! on IBM Water-Cools 3D Multi-Core Chip Stacks · · Score: 2, Funny
  24. Cool more mp3's... on Music Industry Tells Advertisers to Boycott "Pirate" Baidu · · Score: 1

    ...wait...what is that little chinese policeman doing at the bottom of my screen?

  25. Re:They won't count. on India Third to Appeal ISO's OOXML Approval · · Score: 5, Insightful

    You will probably find that in the end that no weight is given to these appeals because they all come from second and third world countries.
    Yet the new technological meccas Azerbaijan and C'ote D'ivoire gets taken seriously when voting in favor of OOXML?

    Something sure smells fishy.
