  1. Maybe I'm just young and foolish... on We Really Don't Know Jack About Maintenance · · Score: 2, Funny

    But I really love maintenance. Sure, the job comes with tremendous amounts of stress but it really entertaining. In CCNA, there's nothing better than subnetting a large network :)

  2. It's easy to stay fit... on Becoming Agile · · Score: 0, Offtopic

    I eat whatever I want, whenever I want. But I also have swim practice two hours a day six days a week :)

  3. Re:Wow... on Vatican Debates Possibility of Alien Life · · Score: 1

    So bombarding Jerusalem and killing thousands in search of a holy artifact is "political"?

  4. Re:Wow... on Vatican Debates Possibility of Alien Life · · Score: 1

    Your kidding right? Catholics did not kill 'millions'. Where did you here that?

  5. Wow... on Vatican Debates Possibility of Alien Life · · Score: 0, Flamebait

    Going to get modded down for this, but if you believe anything the Vatican/Bible says your fucking stupid. Lets listen to the religion who has killed millions of innocent people just because they want to think differently; the same people who have detested the thought of non-human life for centuries.

    George Carlin puts this best: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=MeSSwKffj9o

    The pope needs to get kicked in the balls, hard. There is no man floating up in a cloud somewhere...and even if there was, he's a bloody moron. Leave this stuff for the pros, and go back to your worldwide business.

  6. Uh oh... on Nvidia's RealityServer to Offer Ubiquitous 3D Images · · Score: 1

    Somebody tell 4Chan's /hr/ department, quick!

  7. Re:Another case of bad parenting? on Bernie Madoff's Programmers Arrested · · Score: 1

    I always tell my kids that "so-and-so made me do it" is no defense.



    Oh boy your one of those fathers who always goes in to check the "collaborative shindig" for liquor, aren't you?
  8. Re:But on Bernie Madoff's Programmers Arrested · · Score: 3, Insightful

    The Goldman programmers aren't the problem. The lobbyists are.

  9. Re:Anyone else have a bad feeling about this? on Making Carriers Shoulder Smartphone Security · · Score: 2, Informative

    T-Mobile -> Sidekick is another failed example.

  10. Re:How my computer knows I'm ordering it to do stu on Google Voice Controls Giant LED Display · · Score: 2, Funny

    *Work laptop with Google Voice on nightstand*

    Woman: Oh yes, make love to me baby. Fuck me!!

    I'd like to see how that conversation goes down when your boss looks at your search history.

  11. Re:Rushed on What Happened To the Bay Bridge? · · Score: 1

    Yes Im 15, but it doesn't take much more than having common sense and living by NYC to tell that construction can't be rushed.

  12. Rushed on What Happened To the Bay Bridge? · · Score: 2, Insightful

    Things like this can't be rushed, plain and simple. Carefully executed planning is what's needed to take on these types of projects.

    Sure the commuters will have to wait a little bit longer while repairs are done, but it sure beats the mess they're in now.

  13. So... on Lawmakers Caught Again By File-Sharing Software · · Score: 5, Insightful

    Don't blame the person who actually leaked it, blame the damned software!

    Ahh...I love politics.

  14. Sigh... on Nintendo Announces DSi XL · · Score: 1

    Mediocre upgrade with no real reason to buy.

    I'll be waiting for the rumoured TS next year :)

  15. Re:exclusive partnership on Netflix Coming To Sony PS3 · · Score: 2, Insightful

    Until it became popular and Netflix wanted more cash.

  16. Underclocking on Low-Power Home Linux Server? · · Score: 5, Interesting

    You don't look like you need extensive processing power, so why not just underclock your current server? That alone will save you a pretty penny on your bill.

    Also, the mac mini draws 110 watts http://store.apple.com/us/browse/home/shop_mac/family/mac_mini?aid=AIC-NAUS-K2-BUYNOW-MACMINI-DESIGN&cp=BUYNOW-MACMINI-DESIGN

  17. NO!NO!NO! on Game Retailers Facing Digital Distribution Transition · · Score: 3, Insightful

    Uggh. I've had some HORRIBLE experiences with digital distribution for games (EA Download Manager, Steam).

    Give me a hard copy over digital any day.

  18. Re:Performance != Observance on Music Rights Holders Sue YouTube Again · · Score: -1, Flamebait

    Wir Deutsche sind, was Sie wirklich erwarten?

  19. Re:I hope Apple adopts this on Universal Phone Charger Approved By UN Body · · Score: 2, Insightful

    Not true at all.

    My blackberry Tour has it. My Blackberry Storm had it, and so did my LG Dare.

    Definitely not limited to Nokia.

  20. Huh? on Universal Phone Charger Approved By UN Body · · Score: 0

    My last three phones have all had a mini-usb charge/data port.

    It's pretty much the standard already.

  21. Yahoo! on OpenBSD 4.6 Released · · Score: -1, Troll

    Not trying to be a troll, but do any significant websites besides Yahoo! and Verio run BSD?

  22. Re:IPhone. Blah Blah Blah on Verizon's Challenge To the iPhone Confirmed · · Score: 0

    Your pretty self-centered.

    Just because YOU don't use these features, doesn't mean that others will not.

    So, sorry, but the iPhone is not popular just because it's from Apple. It's popular because it works.

    Hmm? My Blackberry Tour "Just works" and many other phones do too. Speaking of "Just Works", how is it that Apple can approve farting apps, while quality apps (Google Voice) get rejected? Now you could definitely argue that Apple doesn't have to support Google's products, but lets see how happy Apple is when Google decides to take away their maps? You'll see Apple bend over so fucking fast.

    To be brutally honest, the App Store is really the only thing keeping the IPhone alive at the moment.
     

  23. IPhone. Blah Blah Blah on Verizon's Challenge To the iPhone Confirmed · · Score: 4, Insightful

    The iPhone is only popular because it's from Apple. For years the IPhone didn't have:

    IM
    MMS
    Cut/Paste
    MP3/AAC ringtones
    Video recording
    Bluetooth A2DP

    There's many other great phones and carriers that easily surpass the IPhone and AT&T's shit network by a long-shot (Blackberry Tour, Palm Pre, HTC Pro)

  24. NO! on Kaspersky CEO Wants End To Online Anonymity · · Score: -1

    Ugh, I love the AC's trolling Slashdot.

    It makes Slashdot...well...Slashdot.

    It's a miracle if I can get my FIOS router to even work.
