  1. practical use? on Chu's Final Breakthrough Before Taking Office · · Score: -1, Troll

    Nice that Obama is all techno- and elitist, but how is this going to change the lives of Joe Sixpack? Oh wait, the elected officials are not concerned with Joe Sixpack, just maintaining their power.

  2. "little known" ??? on Tapping the Earth For Home Heating and Cooling · · Score: 5, Insightful

    Ah yes, kdawson.

    This technology is HARDLY little-known, but places where people need lots of heating and cooling (the Northeast) are also places where electricity is uber expensive (thank you Greenpeace), so heat pumps aren't worth the $$.

  3. laptop != hard drive on Ubuntu's Laptop Killing Bug Fixed · · Score: 3, Informative

    Oh wait, it's kdawson.

    It shortens the life of your HD, not the laptop itself, you chimp.

  4. Re:hmm. on Ubuntu's Laptop Killing Bug Fixed · · Score: 1

    Sounds like someone's been reading too much Chomsky.

  5. AND, it begins... on MS Silverlight To Stream Obama Inauguration Events · · Score: 1, Insightful

    So folks, now that the new Administration is showing itself to be like every other... How do you feel? Like the slut that nobody respects in the morning maybe?

  6. Use European or Japanese channels on How Best To Deal With WiFi Interference? · · Score: 1

    Change the frequency you're running on to one that your less-technical neighbor can use.

    Problem solved.

  7. Hey, that's OUR corporate policy !!1! on How To Suck At Information Security · · Score: 5, Interesting

    I work for $LARGE_US_BANK and our Infosuck guys do exactly all these things. Manage by magazine article, hire 'architects' who think portscanning is the same as pen-testing, and come up with policy upon policy that tries to limit what people can do - it does by mostly limiting the work people can do.

    This thing nails it.

  8. early adopter FTL on Seagate Hard Drive Fiasco Grows · · Score: -1, Troll

    How much porn do you really need? Seems this latest bug is biting all the early-adopter douchebag/fanboys who like to crow about their TB home storage setups.

  9. I run Debian on ARM on The Secret Lives of Ubuntu and Debian Users · · Score: 1

    So therefore nVidia drivers are irrelevant to me - does that get factored in, or am I "a debian user who does not use nvidia drivers" ?

  10. Re:$400 a month? on Switching To Solar Power — Six Months Later · · Score: 1

    You READ the article? With your low Slashdot ID and everything? /sign of the apocalypse

  11. or go vegetarian? on Future Astronauts May Survive On Eating Silkworms · · Score: 3, Insightful

    Given that it costs more to raise an animal on vegetable feed than you gain by eating it, why not just eat the food that they're feeding the silkworms ?

  12. $400 a month? on Switching To Solar Power — Six Months Later · · Score: 5, Interesting

    Who the hell uses that much electric power?

  13. What do you expect from the GAO? on Taxpayer Data At IRS Remains Vulnerable · · Score: 1

    It's like when the PWC douchebags come and "audit" you, by first being given root access on all your servers, then glibly pointing out that you're running sendmail or Tomcat of some microscopic version behind the current rev or that /etc/password is world-readable.

  14. There is no "College of Rhode Island" on RIAA Backs Down In Austin, Texas · · Score: -1, Redundant

    Unless you mean Miskatonic University.

    Way to go, editors.

  15. BLACKberry on Solving Obama's BlackBerry Dilemma · · Score: 1

    Call it what it is.

  16. of course he does, he's a Statist on Obama Proposes Digital Health Records · · Score: 0, Troll

    He's down with Big Brother - did anyone expect anything else? What the hell does Obama care, his family is set for life.

  17. Re:Utah is the biggest scam capital in the world on SCO Proposes Sale of Assets To Continue Litigation · · Score: 1

    It's all the fancy underwear they wear in UT.

  18. But then what if they win? on SCO Proposes Sale of Assets To Continue Litigation · · Score: 1

    If they win, but there's no company left, what do they do then?

  19. Engrish? on Cisco Mulls Adding Verbal Interview To CCIE Exams · · Score: 0, Troll

    But won't this weed out the non-English speaking, book-memorizing, cheap-working brown people that Corporate America loves so dearly?

  20. Willingness? on The Scope of US E-Waste · · Score: 2, Insightful

    Guiyu's willingness to deal with lead, mercury and other toxic materials...

    There's the problem. Don't do that.

  21. When open WiFi is a terrorist tool on Mumbai Police To Enforce Wi-Fi Security · · Score: 1

    Then only terrorists will use open WiFi.

    Nice try, Bombay police, but FAIL.

  22. Re:Air Force One replacement on USAF Seeks Air Force One Replacement · · Score: -1, Troll

    While your post has enough buzzwords to garner the Insightful tag from clueless mods, your use of the term POTUS and the link with the 'in town' reference only earns you the Douche tag.

  23. buh-bye VZ on Microsoft In Mobile Search Deal With Verizon · · Score: 1

    Yeah, thanks, I'll be switching when my phone contract comes up. Sorry Ballmer, throw your chair at someone else. You douche.

  24. Ironic? on Roland Piquepaille Dies · · Score: 1

    Isn't it ironic that the Slashdot submission itself has a bunch of links to other websites in it, Roland style? /RIP and all that, click-harvester

  25. but can you make phone calls with it? on Palm Announces Killer New Phone · · Score: 2, Interesting

    Can I open it up, punch buttons, and make a phone call? Can I drop it w/o it shattering? Can I lose it, without losing my entire personal identity?
