  1. Poor choice of everything. on Accidental Wii Suicide · · Score: 5, Insightful

    First of all, this wasn't an "accidental suicide", it was an accidental death.

    Second of all, putting "wii" in the title is highly misleading and is typical of today's media which is more interested in tabloid journalism, trying to grab everyones attention by assuming all your readers are more responsitive to these kind of headlines.

    My respect for Slashdot just went down a few.

  2. I for one welcome... on Aussie Scientists Find Coconut-Carrying Octopus · · Score: 4, Funny

    I for one welcome our undersea, coconut wielding, overlords.

    There's been a few documentaries on the Discovery channel where they've not only mention how intelligent they were, but even suggested they might have emotions.

  3. Another conspiracy on "2012" a Miscalculation; Actual Calendar Ends 2220 · · Score: 1

    This is all we need, a conspiracy about a conspiracy.

  4. Extra Fud on Windows 7 Upgrade Can Take Nearly a Day · · Score: 1

    "That second extreme is not a typo: Microsoft really did time an upgrade that took 20 hours and 20 minutes. That's with 650GB of data, 40 applications, on mid-end hardware, and during a 32-bit upgrade."

    So from now on, all I'll hear is how Windows 7 takes "...nearly a day" up upgrade, based on these extremes.

  5. Yahoo has changed on Google Search Flagging Everything As Potentially Harmful · · Score: 5, Funny

    Wow! Yahoo looks a lot different than it used to.

  6. Re:Oh, that's what made Vista fail!? on Ballmer Sets Loose Windows 7 Public Beta At CES · · Score: 1

    "They ARE fixing UAC, and they ARE slimming down Vista. I quote from the article."

    They ARE NOT slimming down Vista. They are selling a whole other product.
