  1. Did you ever plan for your future? on Ask Slashdot: Am I Too Old To Retrain? · · Score: -1

    Did you ever bother to save any money in the last 20 years? Did you ever think that maybe you wouldn't have this problem if you saved enough money to start your own business? Programming is a young person's game and you need to save money while you're young so you can tell young people what to do when you're old.

    Sun Blasts Another Incoming Chicago Mercantile Exchange (CME).

    AAAAAAA!!! DUCK AND COVER!!!!

  4. Re:Opposite for me on New Study Finds People Remember More Than They Think · · Score: 0

    Think about what?

  5. That's alright on Ask Slashdot: Huge Digital Media Libraries · · Score: 5, Funny

    You can admit it. Slashdot understands that you have a large *personal* media collection *AHEM*.

  6. allowed rate on AT&T To Introduce Broadband Caps · · Score: 5, Informative

    (150 gigabytes) / (31 days) = 58.7240143 kBps
    (250 gigabytes) / (31 days) = 97.8733572 kBps
    That's some bs.

  7. High Times on Fermilab To Test Holographic Universe Theory · · Score: -1

    Scientists at Fermilab have decided that it's high time they build a 'holometer' to test the smoothness of space-time.

    Man... must be High Times at Fermilab :)
    Oh my god, space time.. it's soooo smoooth mannnn

  8. An apple a day on iOS Update May Tackle iPhone 4's Antenna Problems · · Score: 0, Funny

    keeps the paycheck away.

  9. part of democracy is free speech on Say No To a Government Internet "Kill Switch" · · Score: -1

    the government and its people will always have some horrible ideas. I would be scared if something like this was actually implemented. Not if people in the government are just 'considering' it.

  10. Re:VERY, VERY Flawed Analogy... on The Fashion Industry As a Model For IP Reform · · Score: -1

    Not sure if anyone still listens to Jack Payne and His Orchestra or any other musicians from the 1920s.

    Most linux users have to reboot their computers about as many times as they have been laid.

  13. Re:Soo.... on Internet Nominated For 2010 Nobel Peace Prize · · Score: -1

    My guess, if the internet wins the Nobel Peace Prize, the money will go toward internet infrastructure in poor countries with a violence problem.

    How the hell is this score 5 insightful? This system so stupid.

  14. Re:Maybe... on Red Hat Exchange Is Dead · · Score: -1

    Make more score 5 funny comments! NOW!

  15. Re:For the dull knives in the drawer on Uranus and Neptune May Have "Oceans of Diamonds" · · Score: -1, Redundant

    I only point this out because you would be surprised at how many human beings don't know this, but for it to float to the top, that means its frozen state is less dense, hence expands, when freezes. Almost nothing else does this.

    Water does that.

  16. Re:At least the Perl crowd is trying, on Helping Perl Packagers Package Perl · · Score: 3, Informative

    Python does actually have a distribution system with easy_install. On windows, the install is a little more complicated, but, other than that, easy_install works pretty well.

  17. Re:May I Be the First To Say This on Helping Perl Packagers Package Perl · · Score: -1, Offtopic

    Yeah, PHP isn't great either, although, it's more legible than perl. I mostly use Python myself.

  18. Re:May I Be the First To Say This on Helping Perl Packagers Package Perl · · Score: 1

    Well, my next trick was actually going to be all about how I like vi. :)

    Fuck perl.

  20. Re:Windows 7 Ultimate party pack on Inside the Windows 7 Launch Party Pack · · Score: 1

    To do what with?

    Where has the glory of reinstalling windows XP gone?

  23. My Daddy Taught Me how to Leak Right.. on Recovery Tool Includes Leak of Palm's WebOS 1.2 · · Score: 0, Offtopic

    Why can't companies like Palm do it? I don't remember what age I learned to piss at but I sure didn't leak all over myself like Palm.

  24. Re:Try these on Replacements For Adobe Creative Suite 3 Apps? · · Score: -1, Troll

    Here's a relevant link to a place where you can find photoshop: http://thepiratebay.org/
    Believe it or not, Adobe PotatoeChop is a free program.
