  1. Re:Our old sys admin on Suitable Naming Conventions For Workstations? · · Score: 1

    I know the acronym LOL gets abused a lot, but this actually made me laugh out loud.

    I wish I had mod points right now, +6

  2. Re:Paranoid about control on While My Guitar Gently Beeps · · Score: 1

    WHOOOOSH

  3. Re:Dumb AND obsessively repetitive... on Finding New and Unintended Ways of Playing Games · · Score: 1

    I once decided that I would go back and play through Super Mario 64 and get every star in sequential order. I would fully complete one level and then move on to the next. I played through every level, until I got to 119/120 stars.

    I went over constantly in my head trying to figure out which star I was missing, until I realized that I had only caught the golden bunny once. I went down to find him and he was not there. Then I realized in dismay that I had not even gone down into the basement until I had 50 stars, I never caught him with 20 stars. I sat there, locked at 119 stars not able to complete the game. I am still haunted to this day.

  4. Re:Duke Nuked 'em? on StarCraft II Delayed Until 2010 · · Score: 1

    Its about damned time...

  5. Re:Oooh. on Intel 34nm SSDs Lower Prices, Raise Performance · · Score: 1
  6. 99% on 'Vanish' Makes Sensitive Data Self-Destruct · · Score: 1

    Dammit, I'm trying to decode your email, but it's been stuck at 99.5% for the last 4 hours!

  7. Re:Well there can be only one answer.... on Noctilucent Clouds Spread and Mystify · · Score: 4, Insightful

    Otherwise, it's a closed system and there's no net change in temperature.

    You know, except for that whole sun thing.

  8. Mod Parent Up on The Evolution of Multiplayer Games and Online Play · · Score: 1

    I totally agree with this. Even as games get bigger and flashier I still pull out my old DOS games to play once and a while.

    Despite new games coming out, the old games aren't just phased out, they are still competitive in enjoyment.

  9. Slashdotted on Wikipedia Censored To Protect Captive Reporter · · Score: 0, Troll

    What? David Rohde was captured? Shit i better go post this on wikipedia.

  10. Re:One-finger salute, talking butt, 'see my apples on Text Comments Out In YouTube "National Discussion" of Health Care · · Score: 2, Informative

    Just as intellectual as the rest of the farce known as politics. The only difference is that the professionals wear fancy suits and genuinely think they are saying something insightful.

    Sounds a lot like slashdot to me.

  11. Re:Good ideas. on Buzz Aldrin's Radical Plan For NASA · · Score: 1

    Well NASA has had balloons take multi-ton payloads to 171,000 ft.

    So at that extreme altitude we could rail gun materials into space.

  12. Re:Good ideas. on Buzz Aldrin's Radical Plan For NASA · · Score: 1

    You realize that eventually, no matter what we do, the universe will no longer sustain life (2nd Law of Thermodynamics)?

    Maybe so, but I want someone to be around to watch it happen.

  13. Re:Lotus Notes on Nielsen Recommends Not Masking Passwords · · Score: 1

    It was even easier than that. In fact they didn't even have to remember your heiroglyphs! They could just try passwords until they got a match!

  14. Re:Inline documentation? on Automated Migration From Cobol To Java On Linux · · Score: 1

    The fools, if only they had figured out a way to translate the COBOL comments into Java comments. WHEN WILL THEY LEARN?

  15. Re:Please Drop the Us V Them Mentality on Tracking Thieves With 'Find my iPhone' · · Score: 3, Funny

    Ah, when will man learn that all races are equally inferior to robots.

  16. Google Chrome on Heavy Rain Gameplay Explained · · Score: 1

    I clicked the link in Google chrome and there was no video. I copied the URL to Firefox and the video showed up.

  17. Re:Missing a door on The Ultimate "Doll House" For WoW Players · · Score: 1

    While this is a good idea, it is missing a critical component: privacy.

    If it had a door to close for privacy what use would the toilet be?

  18. Still two different devices. on Apple May Bring a Non-iPhone To Verizon Wireless · · Score: 1

    I thought the point was that apple did not want to develop two different models of their products for different networks. Wouldn't making a separate "iPhone" for verizon pretty much amount to the same thing?

  19. Re:Only ultraviolet? So they are almost useless on New Material For Fast-Change Sunglasses, Data Storage · · Score: 2, Informative

    They are activated by ultraviolet light...

    Since they turn dark blue, I'll let you figure out what type of light they filter out.

  20. I always stock up on repel on Mariners Develop High Tech Pirate Repellents · · Score: 1
  21. Re:What is 'good enough'? on "Good Enough" Computers Are the Future · · Score: 2, Funny

    That's what I was going for, except the actual quote goes like this:

    Fry: How soon will we get there?

    Glurmo: Soon enough.

    Fry: That's not soon enough!

  22. Re:meh on "Good Enough" Computers Are the Future · · Score: 1

    Im posting this from my desktop running on a Z80

  23. Re:What is 'good enough'? on "Good Enough" Computers Are the Future · · Score: 1

    How good is this computer?

    Good Enough.

    That's not good enough!

  24. Re:RTG's, baby... on Developing Battery Replacement Infrastructure For Electric Cars · · Score: 1

    (v^2) / t != a^2

  25. Re:I see filesharing as a New World Order on Reflections On the Less-Cool Effects of Filesharing · · Score: 3, Funny

    This is where I learned calculus.

    It made me smart. Now I know about change and time. Calculus is good to know for math. With wikipedia, anyone can share what they know!
