  1. Re:Cue Lawsuit From Lucasfilms... NOW! on Star Wars Uncut Project Complete · · Score: 1

    of course it's not Hans Solo

  2. Re:come on, no pics? on Russian Scientist Claims Signs of Life Spotted On Venus · · Score: 1

    Yea it's a bit miss leading. He found a little blue pill and exclaimed, "Zhere be life in my vinus!!" to his wife. That was heard by someone else and this article came of it.

  3. Re:measurement on Google Updates Algorithm To Punish Websites With Excessive Ads · · Score: 1

    Or just use bing.

  4. Re:The hardware is not important? on Intel Relying On Ice Cream Sandwich For Tablet Push · · Score: 1

    Umm, are you arguing that they are right or wrong? It's hard to tell from your post. The software's not important because everyone is using it? I don't get it. When it comes to tablets look and feel of the hardware, and familiarity with the software is more important than the detailed specs. As long as the software is smooth and responsive.

  5. Re:This is why we don't need regulation on DOJ Investigates Google, Apple, and Others For 'No Poaching' Agreement · · Score: 1

    I don't work for any of these companies so I get all of the benefits. These companies products and services at a cheaper rate. I say screw the whiny employees probably close to 1%ers or at least well into the 10%ers anyway.

    Of course each bit of regulation is mandating every bit of your life. It's mandating one bit each.

  7. Re:This is why we don't need regulation on DOJ Investigates Google, Apple, and Others For 'No Poaching' Agreement · · Score: 1, Troll

    Exactly, it'd be so much better if the government would just tell me where I should work. Why should I have to worry about presenting my self to companies and showing how I could be of benefit to them?

  8. Re:Cookie Cutter Concrete on Printing a Home: The Case For Contour Crafting · · Score: 4, Funny

    I don't know, i heard they were stretching New Mexico.

  9. Re:What kind of argument is that? on Is Climate Change the New Evolution? · · Score: 1

    This is more like saying, "I don't understand how gravity works, but I don't think I should have to pay an helium tax so that I can counter its effects."

  10. Re:Also on Is Climate Change the New Evolution? · · Score: 1

    or "AGW remediation would be inconvenient for me so what are the other options? Ohh they've all been squashed due to policy creators not being able to harbor more power from them."

  11. Re:Nope. on Is Climate Change the New Evolution? · · Score: 1

    Climate change is more like the new religion. Big scary thing in the sky that if you don't do the "right thing" then it will burn you for all eternity.

    Of course "right thing" is what ever our religious^Wgovernment leaders tell us.

  12. Re:Linux? on Windows Admins Need To Prepare For GUI-Less Server · · Score: 1

    Sad that he thinks that, or sad that it's true? Many windows admins have said, "No GUI, No Do-ee."

  13. Re:So, why is it called Windows, then? on Windows Admins Need To Prepare For GUI-Less Server · · Score: 1

    Perhaps you should look at .ps2 then. Though I have many complaints of things that a re different just for the sake of being different. There are also a lot of really nice things about it compared to the Unix shell.

  14. Re:Eventually on The Doomsday Clock Is Moved Closer To Midnight · · Score: 5, Insightful

    "A symbolic clock is as emotionally reassuring as a picture of oxygen to a drowning man." -Dr. Manhattan

  15. Re:Who uses technology versus who talks about it on Ask Slashdot: Which Candidates For Geek Issues? · · Score: 1

    I do find it annoying that there will be entire articles about all the candidates and how their doing in the primaries with paragraphs plus dedicated to even the 5th and 6th place candidates but Ron Paul, in second place, gets nothing except the second place mark on the candidate list.

  16. Re:So is that good or bad? on Carbon Emissions 'Will Defer Ice Age' · · Score: 1

    "..it is very likely to be seriously detrimental, beneficial or have no effect for the next few centuries until then."

    FTFY

  17. Re:False supposition on Why Do All Movie Tickets Cost the Same? · · Score: 2

    supply is absolutely a factor. There is a very limited supply of seats available. Not only that but some seats are more premium than others. Some screens are more premium than others. Some times are more premium than others. Airlines take all these sorts of things into account when pricing tickets.

  18. Re:One Sided view really social media? on Occupy Protesters Are Building a Facebook for the 99% · · Score: 1

    A post full of spoon feed sound bites about spoon feed sound bites. Is that irony or just funny?

    better yet, lets have it split into 50 sections then have a small union bound by a written document with very explicitly limited powers to keep them together and playing nice.

    Sins can be forgiven by man, but crimes must be punished.

  22. This is good on New Record High Temperature At South Pole · · Score: 1, Interesting

    Soon we can turn Antarctica into a useful human settle-able land with farming and cities. Maybe Al Gore Warming isn't so bad.

  23. Re:Yea, well... on Imgur.com: Why We Dumped GoDaddy · · Score: 1

    It's like walking in on your best friend banging your wife, he looks up and says, "sorry, dude. I'm almost finished." then continues until done.

  24. Re:Pretty Lame on Recent Discovery Contains Oldest Depiction of the Tower of Babel · · Score: 1

    On second thought, let's not build a tower of babel. Tis a silly place.
