  1. Re:Oh my dear god on A 3D Lego Fabricator Made of Lego · · Score: 1

    You get the Legos warm and re-meld the plastic ever so lightly and could get textures like a wax figure, just don't ask how I know that.

  2. Re:Oh my dear god on A 3D Lego Fabricator Made of Lego · · Score: 3, Funny

    Meh. I, for one, welcome our new self-assembling, replicating lego overlords.

    Oh crap, am I the only one who thought of Replicators from Stargate?

  3. Running Linux not a mistake. on Panasonic Invites Gamers To the Jungle · · Score: 4, Insightful

    If it runs Linux then they are going to be guaranteed a few sales from people just wanting to tinker with it.

  4. Re:Settle In Sweetheart on Google TV Details Revealed · · Score: 1

    You: Put the kids to bed and make some popcorn. It's viral video night! Spouse: Great, I just love watching my favorite viral videos! You: Me too! Spouse: I love you honey.

    You: I sent you a link to a really awesome viral video, let's watch that, ok? Spouse: Great idea, my lovey-dov... Google TV: NEVER GONNA GIVE YOU UP / NEVER GONNA... Spouse: I'm filing for divorce.

    You: I thought that song seemed romantic. It was about a guy never giving up, never letting down, never running around and hurting, never making you cry, and never saying good bye.

  5. Re:Just like in real life... on Micro-Transactions Coming To Team Fortress 2 Via Steam Wallet · · Score: 1

    A game that emulated real life would be pretty boring (see also: The Sims).

    Yet The Sims was one of the best selling games of all time.

  6. Re:Your definition of movie may vary... on Torrent-Only Movie Denied IMDb Listing · · Score: 1
    To be fair The Guild and Dr. Horrible Sing Along Blog are both sold as DVDs through Amazon. (I don't know about the others, but Amazon is where I got those two from.)

    Agreed on the Doraleous and Associates though.

  7. Re:the weekend on Facebook Is Down · · Score: 1

    That story would have been much more believable if you left out the part about an Asian girlfriend.

  8. Re:Interesting, yet pointless on Twitter Closes Hole After Attack Hits Up To 500K Users · · Score: 1

    That explains why people post to Twitter. Why do people read it?

    People want to feel part of a group that bitches about things they bitch about?

  9. Re:Interesting, yet pointless on Twitter Closes Hole After Attack Hits Up To 500K Users · · Score: 1

    Thereby destroying the name-referentiality of the Web, so as soon as one of those URL-shortener services goes out of business, poof, all the links in saved messages evaporate.

    If they are worth it then the sites can be found another way.

  10. Re:counterproductive on DDoS From 4chan Hits MPAA and Anti-Piracy Website · · Score: 1

    The first wave of attacks was merely a distraction. General Pedobear is leading an attack through the backdoor to crush them once and for all.

    The general is talking about surprise buttsex, right? General Pedobear should be one of the most experienced in that field.

  11. Re:counterproductive on DDoS From 4chan Hits MPAA and Anti-Piracy Website · · Score: 4, Insightful

    If anonymous members can't target more essential parts of their business with their attacks, they shouldn't bother.

    So should they do black faxes then?

  12. Re:How? on Remote Operated Aircraft Targets Hurricanes · · Score: 1

    Saving a few lives when 100x as many die every year to massive overpopulation?

    The overpopulation problem seems to be fixing itself then.

  13. Re:Gotta Say on Review: Halo: Reach · · Score: 1

    The game does look beautiful. Almost makes me want to get an Xbox to play this.Is there any chance of this coming out for PC.

    Not a chance.

  14. Re:Forget chocolate rain on Police Publish 'An Introduction To PEDO BEAR' · · Score: 1

    Very, but they still get to vote. Three guesses as to which way "they" lean.

    You only need three ways left, right, and neither.

  15. Do they not already have restrictions? on 72% of US Adults Support Violent-Game Ban For Minors · · Score: 3, Interesting

    I have had to show an ID to get M rated games from stores here in Texas, does California not already do that?

  16. Re:Why do the complicated expensive solution? on Preventing Networked Gizmo Use During Exams? · · Score: 1

    I had a Korean student who was upset and dropped the course when I told her she couldn't use her iPod during an exam — she said she used it as a dictionary.

    And another thing. You should have told her "Welcome to America - learn fuckin' English!" I wouldn't get a degree in Korea and expect not to learn Korean. Fuck, if she was Mexican you'd have powerful lobbies trying to make your college bi-lingual because another word for illegal alien is undocumented Democrat. Koreans in particular and Asians in general are too small a percent of population for those assholes to push an agenda about them, unlike the spics. So she dropped the class. No loss there, Asian chicks usually have small tits anyway.

    You had a point until you were all trollish about it.

  17. Re:The hell? on New Email Worm Squirming Through Windows Users' Inboxes · · Score: 1

    OS is the only thing that will run your application properly, you run the 2001 OS.

    Not for checking your email it isn't. Unless of course you are a fucking moron.

    Checking email isn't the only thing people do on computers these days.

  18. Re:Well... on Can NetBooks & Tablets Co-Exist? · · Score: 2

    Yes, but I needed an article like this to cheer me up in the morning. Makes me glad I'm not a /. editor who has to try and filter this kind of stuff.

    The editors don't seem to try too hard.

  19. You shouldn't have fired him then. on HP Sues Hurd For Joining Oracle · · Score: 3, Insightful

    That's all.

  20. Re:Never about Protecting Intellectual Content on Sony Releases PS3 Firmware Update To Fight Jailbreaks · · Score: 1

    Copyright exists to force people to spend more money than they would have otherwise, thereby inflating the GDP.

    How would that inflate the GDP? The extra money would have just been spent elsewhere.

  21. LOLWUT? on Newspapers Cut Wikileaks Out of Shield Law · · Score: 5, Insightful

    Wikileaks doesn't deserve source protection because 'it's not journalism.

    Did the news industry forget what journalism is?

  22. Re:I may have read that one wrong on Burning Man Goes Open Source For Cell Phones · · Score: 4, Insightful

    There's certainly a lot of overlap between the techie crowd and the hippie crowd. Steve Jobs, for example, experimented with LSD.

    Jobs never has been been really a techie though, he is more of a hipster businessman.

  23. Re:But.... on Pentagon Selects Companies To Build Flying Humvees · · Score: 1

    Autobots can't transform into flying things. Only Decepticons do.

    Omega Supreme would like a word with you.
