  1. Re:Why Slashdot won't adopt it on Unicode 6.1 Released · · Score: 1

    Before anyone chimes in complaining that Slashdot doesn't even support an old version of Unicode...

    Oops.. But I kinda wish the <i> tag still worked

  2. Re:Stick to ASCII on Unicode 6.1 Released · · Score: 1

    Slashdot seems to believe so, seeing that we can't type accents and whatnot without jumping through a few hoops

  3. Re:What about Google and Youtube? on Swedish Supreme Court Refuses Appeal In Pirate Bay Case · · Score: 1

    Google and Youtube are being good citizens

  4. Well, I don't know about the rest of y'all on White House Refuses To Comment On Petition To Investigate Chris Dodd · · Score: 1

    But I'm gonna kick back and fire up a fatty

  5. What number am I thinking of? on Computer Program Reconstructs Heard Words From Brain Scans · · Score: 4, Funny

    69 dude!

  6. Re:Jobs are a necessary evil on America's Future Is In Software, Not Hardware · · Score: 1

    ...corporations will inevitably pursue automation.

    More likely they will promote cannibalism.

    But anyway, for your reading pleasure

  7. Waddya expect? on Trials and Errors: Why Science Is Failing Us · · Score: 1

    They all still believe the law of thermodynamics are absolute and unbreakable. And nobody's trying to see past Einstein's theories. This is typical human arrogance that reflects 19th Century Victorian beliefs. But, I've already been through this. Everybody thinks there's this brick wall we'll never pass. If that's the case, why bother with science if we've already learned everything there is to learn.

  8. Re:prizes? I just want to see the competition on Pentagon: 30,000 Pound Bomb Too Small · · Score: 1

    ...who hands out prizes for stuff like this...?

    The Nobel Committee?

  9. Re:Cue The Peaceniks on Pentagon: 30,000 Pound Bomb Too Small · · Score: 1

    Heh, really... Peace sucks! heh, heh Bombs are cool.. heh, heh

  10. Re:My guess on Eye of Tiger Composer Sues Gingrich To Stop Campaign From Using Song · · Score: 1

    They are a type of fruit.

    We find that very offensive

  11. Jurisdiction? on WikiLeaks To Ship Servers To Micronation of Sealand? · · Score: 3, Insightful

    Anybody actually think that would stop the bombs and bullets? Please! It would only suffer the same fate as Iraq, Afghanistan, Libya, Vietnam, Philippines, etc etc etc.

  12. Re:Eye of Newt on Eye of Tiger Composer Sues Gingrich To Stop Campaign From Using Song · · Score: 1

    They're creepy and they're kooky,
    Mysterious and spooky,
    They're all together ooky,
    The Gingrich Family.

  13. Re:Dear republican candidates on Eye of Tiger Composer Sues Gingrich To Stop Campaign From Using Song · · Score: 1

    Just shuffle off...

    to Buffalo?

  14. Re:My guess on Eye of Tiger Composer Sues Gingrich To Stop Campaign From Using Song · · Score: 5, Funny

    ...despicable Republican...

    :-) Is there another kind?

  15. Re:you lose credit when you say 'MAFIAA' on Megaupload Lawyer Says User Data Will Be Held For Two Weeks · · Score: 1

    ...it was done by the Federal Government.

    Using legislation bought and paid for by the MAFIAA (Music and Film Industries Association of America... Seeing as you like to keep repeating that). See, the real problem is not the government per se, but that we allow the it to become so corrupted, thinking there's something in it for us. Just looking for a fast buck

  16. Re:Start at the beginning on Ask Slashdot: How To Inform a Non-Techie About Proposed Copyright Laws · · Score: 1

    Start at the beginning...

    First, the earth cooled.. Then the dinosaurs came...

  17. These bills aren't the problem on Ask Slashdot: How To Inform a Non-Techie About Proposed Copyright Laws · · Score: 1

    You need to show him how destructive copyright is... that enforced exclusivity is bad m'kay? Read him some of Jefferson's thoughts on the matter.

  18. Re:AAF: Ammo Against Facebook on Facebook's Oregon Data Center Uses As Much Power As Entire County · · Score: 1

    Don't give them any ideas.. It's because things aren't deleted that Slashdot has any value. How many other places can you so easily look 13 years into the past... and see people argue about the same things over and over again? You know there was a time when the journals had no spam?

  19. Re:The next time... on DHS Sends Tourists Home Over Twitter Jokes · · Score: 4, Funny

    That's why you should vote for Newt... to finish the job.

  20. Re:Well on What If the Apollo Program Never Happened? · · Score: 1

    Maybe the mistake is trying to separate the universe from its component parts, because I am talking about the universe as a whole. Everything works together. There really is only one system. To exclude certain parts just because we don't understand them or don't fit our pet theories will lead to erroneous conclusions. It's like the cops failing to follow a lead only because they want to believe they already got their man. The wrong guy gets convicted. The universe, with all its parts is the perpetual motion machine. There's always something, even if it's just a singularity.

  21. Re:Achilles Heel on Jailbreaking the Internet For Freedom's Sake · · Score: 1

    "religion" is really just another business. Consumerism, a result of industrialization, is a slightly more secular version of religion. But all economics is faith based, worshiping a different god. We all seem able to live with it as long it's not our fingernails being pulled off.

  22. Re:Well on What If the Apollo Program Never Happened? · · Score: 1

    People used to believe the earth was flat, and that everything revolved around it. Nobody believed a tiny little germ cell could kill a man. And of course we'll never fly, much less faster than sound. We view the universe and all events through the tiniest of pinholes.

  23. Re:Well on What If the Apollo Program Never Happened? · · Score: 1

    There is no 'external'. Maybe mass and energy aren't as distinct as they seem to be.

  24. Re:Achilles Heel on Jailbreaking the Internet For Freedom's Sake · · Score: 1

    I don't trust private owners, and I don't trust the government. I'm undecided which one I trust least.

    Don't sweat it. They're the same thing. Two sides of one coin. The lack of one precludes the existence of the other.

  25. Re:Well on What If the Apollo Program Never Happened? · · Score: 1

    All that assumes that we've seen it all, and there's nothing else to learn.
