  1. Re:Joke right? on US Army Considers a Smartphone For Every Soldier · · Score: 2

    When your kill ratio is 100:1 you should STFU about it being challenging or even about it being war.

  2. Re:sic? on Nigerian Email Scam Victim Sues Bank, Loses Appeal · · Score: 1

    "outside America continent" is an odd turn of phrase. I guess it indicates faulty grammar.

  3. If I find one, on Join a Worldwide Planet Search · · Score: 1, Funny

    Can I keep it?

  4. Re:strange brew that's also good for you. on The Clock Is Ticking On Encryption · · Score: 1

    Side effects include turning into a spambot touting the virtues of moldy tea.

  5. For all my encryption cracking needs... on The Clock Is Ticking On Encryption · · Score: 4, Insightful

    I rely on magic pixie dust found on top of the space elevator. It's easier to get than a useful quantum computer and will be for quite some time.

  6. Square Enix has prior art. on OnLive Awarded Patent For Cloud-Based Gaming · · Score: 5, Funny

    Cloud based gaming was integral to Final Fantasy 7.

  7. Re:youre on /., a geek or a nerd, and you dont car on Today's WikiLeaks News · · Score: 1

    When the US government cancels the school trip because little Julian was unruly in class don't beat him up in the playground. That's what teacher wants you to do.

  8. Re:For Better or *for Worse* ... on TIME Names Mark Zuckerberg Person of Year · · Score: 1

    Hi Mark, congratulations. Glad you could join us.

    Funnily enough, I owe much to all these people:

    Stalin: He made my dad want to flee the USSR.
    Hitler: Created the opportunity for my dad to flee to the west.

    Without these two he would never have met my mom and I wouldn't exist.

    Ayatollah Khomeini: They dropped his coffin during his burial, making his corpse fall out. For me, this is one of the funniest moments in television history.

    Mark Zuckerberg: Eeeh... Helped me meet women. And Mafia Wars... no wait that's a bad thig.

    Life is strange sometimes.

  9. Re:I used to love this game... on 20 Years of Commander Keen · · Score: 1

    What? And violate the holy Ai Pee? Think of that poor endangered ai, who peed for you.

  10. Re:Not removed from Kindles, but from the "Archive on Amazon Taking Down Erotica, Removing From Kindles · · Score: 1

    Amazon: breach of trust and unreliable service.
    Fuck them.

  11. Re:Games to Movies on Why Video Game Movie Adaptations Need New Respect · · Score: 1

    I disagree, but it would make a classic TV series like the old Adam West Batman series. Every week a new quest that is almost the same as last week's quest with wood elves camping it up for comic relief. It could last for nine seasons easily.

  12. Re:No more Uwe on Why Video Game Movie Adaptations Need New Respect · · Score: 2

    Hush now. Postal was awesome.

  13. Re:What is the point on Why Video Game Movie Adaptations Need New Respect · · Score: 2

    I think it's great and I firmly believe the next step is turning architecture into cinematic classics. Who needs original content?

    (Come to think of it, Helvetica the movie was quite excellent. I can't wait for the adaptation of Comic Sans, let's hire Uwe Boll for that.)

  14. Re:Noscript wins again on Two Major Ad Networks Found Serving Malware · · Score: 1

    Sure, but nobody wants to subscribe to many sites. One or two is fine but twenty or more? Especially when most only have interesting content once a fortnight.
    (I know that's not what you meant but it gets to the heart of the problem as I see it.)

  15. Re:Noah, etc on A Lost Civilization Beneath the Persian Gulf? · · Score: 1

    Tell that to the Babylonians who lived next door to all these Biblical events. They named the guy Utnapishtim. Now if you can twist that into Noah you must have studied under a Jezuit.

  16. Re:Haha, it won't hold up. on Man Sues Rockstar Saying GTA:SA Is Based On His Life · · Score: 1

    Having RTFA (I know it is frowned upon) a researcher from Rockstar interviewed him for half a hour and now he thinks they owe him a living.

  17. Re:Internet war? No it's more dangerous than that. on WikiLeaks Took Advice From Media Outlets · · Score: 2

    Please go back on your meds. The Wikileaks core team runs great risk, but nobody will be going after their supporters. The only risk I feel I'm facing personally is my donation not reaching it's intended target. Fuck it. It's only money.
    This is a time to show a straight spine, not to be so cowardly that you refrain from taking simple relatively safe actions such as donating money (once a trustworthy bank is found,) mirroring the site or seeding the torrents.

  18. Re:Missing the Point, entirely on Schneier Recommends Nuclear-Style Cyberwar Hotlines, Treaties · · Score: 1

    Once you've backtraced it, do you call the cyber police?

  19. Re:Ok, a question or two on Ransomware Making a Comeback · · Score: 1

    Damn that Western Digital. That's why I only send money via Seagate or Toshiba.

  20. Re:Fugly on BendDesk Merges Computer, Monitor and Desk · · Score: 3, Insightful

    Did you just say "feasibility of the usage paradigm" and mean it?

  21. Why not stick with SDXC? on SanDisk, Nikon and Sony Develop 500MB/sec 2TB Flash Card · · Score: 0

    These cards will be more bulky and slower than high end SDXC cards. And SDXC is already in use today.

  22. Re:What is the basis for the suit? on Apple Sues Steve Jobs Figurine Maker Over Likeness · · Score: 1

    They did and they were planning to issue their own toys.
    Liver sold separately.

  23. Re:Sad day on Empire Strikes Back Director Irvin Kershner Dies at 87 · · Score: 1

    Yeah but then they terraformed his grave and he popped out safe and sound.

  24. Re:Sad day on Empire Strikes Back Director Irvin Kershner Dies at 87 · · Score: 1

    Protip: If you're going to pay tribute to somebody in your sig, at least spell his name right.

  25. Re:Monday morning blues.. on DIY Sound-Activated High-Speed Photography · · Score: 1

    You mean like this?
