    A bit of trivia. It actually called Donkey Kong. True story!

  4. Re:Credit Card on 60,000 Credit Cards Numbers Stolen Online · · Score: 2

    This is why I fucked up my credit beyond repair. I'd LIKE to see one of those foreign credit card thieves get something approved on MY credit. Muuaaaahahahahahaaaaaaa

    Financial irresponsibility is your only real protection.

  5. Re:Bad Developer, BAD! on Microsoft Word Security Flaw · · Score: 3, Funny

    The free upgrades that you seek can be downloaded here. Just don't go telling everyone because people will take advantage of their generosity.

    ...or an interactive pr0n display!

  7. Re:Backup? on Maxtor Announces 80GB Platters · · Score: 2

    You buy an identical drive and a RAID card and mirror.

  8. Re:Apollo Historical Site on First Commercial Moon Mission Approved · · Score: 2

    Damn, wish you would have suggested that sooner. We just tore that set down to make room for the set needed for "The New Beverly Hillbillies".

  9. Re:Wait for it... on Pro-Active Furniture Assembly · · Score: 2

    "Imagine a beowulf cluster" in the futon...

    Most geek guys do, but they have to buy porn to experience it.

  10. Wait for it... on Pro-Active Furniture Assembly · · Score: 5, Funny

    How long before we see the /. article about someone getting the Linux kernel to boot in his futon?

  11. Re:Well on Satirewire Calls It Quits · · Score: 2

  13. Re:Tabbed browsing on KDE 3.1 Beta Released · · Score: 2

    Flipping Jon Katz off every time he posts a story.

  14. Re:Download times... on TransGaming Ports 3 Kohan Titles to Linux · · Score: 2

    Back in my modem days I used a download manager, a connection re-establisher (I made that word up), and would simply start the download before I went to bed. I did a lot of downloading of large files that way.

  15. Re:Contrary to the other posts in this thread. . . on VisionTek Folds · · Score: 2

    Companies that offer warranty's on their product should have to buy insurance to cover if they go under.

  16. Re:Lifetime Warranty? on VisionTek Folds · · Score: 2

    A warranty that long on home computer parts is a joke. Did you really think that you were going to be using that card in 6 years? Five? Four? Would you still have the receipt? And if the card died in five years, what would you expect the vendor to do? Give you a GeForce XV in return?

    Warranty's can be good, but they can also be completely useless. A six year warranty on a consumer video card is useless. Even moreso now that VisionTek is soon to be gone.

  17. Re:Worse than Klipsch ProMedia? on Turning Dead Drives into Speakers? · · Score: 2

    Please stay on topic, Sivar. We're discussing the ways to fix the reposting issues at /. and NOT the story, mmmmmkay?

    "Of course, anyone who didn't want to be tracked could just put it in the glovebox anyway, so they won't be catching clever felons or tracking real paranoiacs."

    I folded up a little tinfoil hat for mine.

  19. Re:Northern Hemisphere on Perseid Meteor Showers · · Score: 3, Funny

    It'll be similar but the streaks will be going the other direction.

  20. Re:The user comments. on NeoNapster's NeoAudio Rips Off CDex · · Score: 5, Funny

    That's obviously a fake. Not a misspelled word to be seen.

  21. Implement, huh? on MS to Implement Some DoJ Settlement Terms Preemptively · · Score: 1

    Let's get this outta the way now: Implement, and EXTEND.

  22. Re:I'd wear that on HP Uses DMCA To Quash Vulnerability Publication · · Score: 2

    Looks like it will!

    I would post the program but apparently I'm supposed to use fewer 'junk' characters, even when posting as code. Honestly, I think that this program is much more than 'junk characters'.

  23. I'd wear that on HP Uses DMCA To Quash Vulnerability Publication · · Score: 2

    Anyone know if this exploit would fit on a t-shirt?

  24. Easily fixed on Hop-On Hops Back On the PR Bandwagon · · Score: 2

  25. Re:Good... on DJs Spinning Those Hard Drives · · Score: 4, Funny

    Dude, he's posting on /. He doesn't HAVE a girl. Clean your glasses and realize that in the weird-ass club lights just because it has long hair doesn't mean that it's a girl.
