  1. Spammer's Solution on Resume Spamming Creates Storage, Legal Snags · · Score: 1

    I wonder when spammers will start attaching resumes to their spam to make companies have to let the spam through, even store the spam for five years...

  2. Re:maybe I've been surfing the web too long on P2P Meets Push · · Score: 1

    Glad to see that SOMEONE picked up on that. After I hit Submit I figured that it might be too subtle.

  3. Re:Toilet paper... on Caldera vs. Microsoft Court Documents To Be Shredded · · Score: 1

    Does this mean a revival of the Back Oriface project?

  4. Re:maybe I've been surfing the web too long on P2P Meets Push · · Score: 1

    ...let alone trust the content published on them.

  5. Re:Somewhere on the outskirts of Kent, WA... on Have You Seen This Segway? · · Score: 1

    Funny, I thought that you conservatives weren't the type to have people do for you what you can do for yourself.

    I empower you, oh ChaoticLimbs, to go forth and figure out how to add yourself to my Freak List. Discover the clue that eludes you, through the letters "RTFM", and become enlightened.

  6. Somewhere on the outskirts of Kent, WA... on Have You Seen This Segway? · · Score: 3, Funny

    "Yer right, Cletis. That IS one fancy-pants lookin' push-mower. If'n ya only had the keys..."

  7. Conclusion...UPDATED on Memory Timings Analysis · · Score: 4, Funny

    Advanced memory timings, while beneficial in squeezing that last bit of performance out of your system, won't save your server from the Slashdot Effect.

  8. Just Great on MailBlocks sues Earthlink over Anti-Spam Tech · · Score: 4, Funny

    Why can't it be that the penis enlarger companies are the ones that are suing each other into bankruptcy over patent infringement?

  9. Re:outdoor enclosures on The Wireless Networking Question Roundup... · · Score: 1

    Why do you want to know?

  10. Re:I suspect on VIA's New Nehemiah M10000 Processor Reviewed · · Score: 3, Funny

    Yeah, but based on my experience with getting Tabasco sauce in my right eye I don't think that I'll be trying it in my left anytime soon.

  11. Re:Instead... on Making Change · · Score: 1

    I thought about that, too. Thought it would be a great idea to get rid of pennies. Then two words hit me and it all fell apart: sales tax.

  12. When Mathmeticians Lose Touch with Reality on Making Change · · Score: 0, Flamebait

    Sorry, but the average white-bread eating American does not have the mental capacity to use an 18 or 32 coin.

    It's nice to know, however, that the University of Waterloo math department doesn't do drug testing of their employees.

  13. Don't bother clicking the forum links on Gentoo Games · · Score: 1, Troll

    I caught them just as they were grinding to a halt and the meat of the threads was "Dude, that TOTALLY rules!"

  14. Re:America's Army on Gentoo Games · · Score: 5, Funny

    Totally agree. I've had a problem with the lack of reality in games ever since that giant ape took my girlfriend captive and started rolling barrels at me.

  15. A possible Slashdot suggestion on Electrolux Robot Vacuum Cleaner · · Score: 1

    Would it be possible to create a sub-classification at Slashdot to cover press releases like this? Sure, it's a link to an article about this product, but products like these things have been out a couple years now, so this is hardly news.

    Mod me a troll if you want, but this is an ad for a freaking two year old vaccuum, people. When did Ron Popeil become an editor here?

  16. Re:Automate the World! on AIBO Robot Dog Soccer Competition · · Score: 1

    Finally, an opportunity to get even with all of those torturous jocks from high school!

  17. Bring on the CG! on The Hiring, Firing and Re-Hiring of Spider-Man · · Score: 1, Insightful

    The sooner we can get rid of these primadonna actors the better.

    Honestly, for the amount of bank that this whiner is getting for making this movie I'd put up with an amazing amount of pain.

  18. Re:Thanks for hijacking my referral links on FreeBSD: The Complete Reference · · Score: 4, Insightful

    So the /. editors won't fix spalling erorrs in a post but they'll make sure to rip off the referral purchase? Smooth.

  19. Good timing on TiVo For Radio? · · Score: 1

    It's pledge month at the local PBS radio affiliate.

  20. Re:Move your sites to Montana! on California Senate Approves Net Tax Bill · · Score: 1

    Who will tend to the sheep?

  21. Re:Oregon doesn't have a Sales Tax on California Senate Approves Net Tax Bill · · Score: 1

    And we also have the shortest school year of any state in America, thanks to a lack of funding. So really we're a haven for credit card number-stealing 14 year olds.

  22. Get even on Dancing Barefoot · · Score: 1

    Cast Wil in the movie, and then cut him from it during post-production.

  23. Re:This ad paid for by On2 on On2 Releases VP6 video codec · · Score: 4, Funny

    On a positive note, PR folks tend to send their releases through spell-checkers before they publish them.

  24. Is it me? on Radio Shack Selling Subway Cars on eBay · · Score: 2, Funny

    Is it just me, or does anyone else look at eBay auction pictures with a fear in the back of your mind that you will see the naked guy who took the picture reflected somewhere?

  25. Re:Of Subject, I know on Build Your Own Mac With CoreCrib Kit · · Score: 0, Offtopic

    Shouldn't nitpick. "Of Subject"?
