  1. Re:Advertisement on Howard Stern Coming To the Net · · Score: 1

    You're new here, aren't you?

  2. Re:Newspapers, anyone? on The Daily Show as Substantive as Broadcast News · · Score: 1

    Am I the only one here who gets her news from newspapers, ala The New York Times and The Wallstreet Journal?

    Since you're the only girl on Slashdot, I'd say the answer is pretty obvious here.

  3. Re:FIELD / SERVICE on Dutch Blackbox Voting Pwned · · Score: 2, Funny

    Minor translation issue. The password was actually "SECURE".

  4. Re:Looks nice... on Beautiful Wooden PC Cases · · Score: 1

    Thank goodness they're packaging FOSS, otherwise these things would be prohibitively expensive.

  5. Re:Big Dang Deal on Administration Ignored Bin Laden Intel · · Score: 1, Insightful

    Interesting, Bill Clinton said last Sunday night or whenever it was that He "left a comprehensive anti-terror strategy." I guess that turned out to be a lie if Rice was being pressured to set one herself.

    President Clinton could have very well left a strategy. What's likely is that the Bush Administration through it out, as it was not their own.

  6. Re:Oblivion Confirmed for PS3 Launch on Oblivion Confirmed for PS3 Launch · · Score: 2, Funny

    It would have happened sooner had Satan not been so polarized in favor of the Blu-Ray camp.

  7. Re:To really put things in perspective.. on Much Ado About Gas Prices · · Score: 1

    Your logic only makes sense if everybody had to drive everywhere. We don't.

  8. Re:Obligatory... on NASA Testing Linux-Based Exploration Robots · · Score: 2, Funny

    No, but the one that crashed full-speed into Mars probably did.

  9. Re:And it only cost 6 million dollars... on Bionic Arm Provides Hope for Amputees · · Score: 4, Funny

    If this arm doesn't make that cool "neh neh neh neh" bionic noise already, they should add it.

  10. No Thanks! on ATI Releases Five New Radeons · · Score: 0, Offtopic

    I'm waiting for Wii!

  11. Re:how it went down on Software Giants Seek Friends Among Hackers · · Score: 3, Funny

    Judging by Microsoft's past penchant for back doors, I don't think they're going for his back...

  12. Re:Remember the good old days? on Japan Plans a Moonbase by 2030 · · Score: 1

    I recall him doing a long pattern of stupid and irresponsible behavior that earned said ridicule.

  13. Do It Yourself Better on Mozilla Partners with Real Networks · · Score: 1

    Firefox
    Real Alternative
    All of the functionality of this debacle without the spyware.

  14. Re:Object of Desire?!?!?! on Microsoft Encouraging OEMs to Beautify Computers · · Score: 1

    You post on slashdot. This might be a good bet to take.

  15. And In Other News... on Windows Vista still Rife with Insecure Code · · Score: 0, Offtopic

    ...representatives of the US automotive insurance industry announced today that after careful analysis of 2007 model year vehicles that every last one of them could run into something and get damaged.

  16. Re:Why do we link to blogs? on Cook Your Breakfast With MacBook · · Score: 1

    They should have linked to this article, really.

  17. Re:Incomplete study... on Cell Users As Bad As Drunk Drivers · · Score: 4, Funny

    They can't find enough pot-smoking teens with the motivation to get off of the couch, let alone actually DRIVE somewhere.

  18. Hot Damn! on Cell Users As Bad As Drunk Drivers · · Score: 4, Funny

    You mean I might have a chance with the hot babe at the party whose sober but chatting on her cell phone?

  19. Efficient? YES! on Microsoft Releases IE7 Beta 3 · · Score: 1

    "the most efficient way to deploy and manage Web-based solutions."

    If by "Web-based solutions" you mean trojans, spyware, and other nefarious exploits then I whole-heartedly agree.

  20. Brilliant! on RIAA Drops P2P Lawsuit Strategy, Goes Local · · Score: 3, Funny

    You know, at first I thought that the attorneys who work for the RIAA were blood-sucking leeches for going after all of those people like they do. However, the more I think about it the more I think that they truly are brilliant. They have tapped into a seemingly endless supply of cash at the RIAA by trying to accomplish something that will never work: shutting down file sharing entirely.

    If they ARE blood-sucking leeches, they are very smart blood sucking leeches. Bravo!

  21. Visa/Mastercard Living Peacefully Together on Google Launches PayPal Rival · · Score: 1

    "Analysts compare Google/Paypal to for example Visa/Mastercard living peacefully together"

    It's easy to live peacefully together when you're owned by the same parent company (BofA).

  22. Re:Listen on Hurricane Simulator to Destroy Full Size Building · · Score: 4, Funny

    Canadian votes are just as valid as South Florida votes in our election process. Cmon down.

    RTFA, man! Apple is going to BUY it!

  24. Re:Where's Dvorak? on The 10 Tech People Who Don't Matter · · Score: 1

    Both of them generate plenty of headlines and discussion, so apparently they do matter whether we like it or not.

  25. Internet Reality TV on Jeff Pulver Is Betting on Internet Video · · Score: 1

    "Someday he wants to start an Internet reality TV show."

    I'm sorry, but watching someone browse pr0n is not what I envision to be good television. Not unless they give me URLs, too.
