  1. Re:From the Description... on Tractor Beams Come To Life · · Score: 1

    Or a Bactor Beam.

  2. Re:Google home page? on Google Logo Changes Again, Hinting RT Search? · · Score: 1

    Possibly the fact that browser bar searching won't give you results as you type? Not just suggestions, actual results, which this appears to be.

  3. I really don't see the problem here on The Gaping Holes In the UAE's Net Firewall · · Score: 1

    So when I connect up my internet for the first time, I won't run into any naked people by accident. Good.

    If I want to look at naked people, the ISP itself will give me what I need to see naked people. Also Good.

    The UAE governmant is happy, horny teenagers are happy, concerned (protective) parents are happy. Where is the problem?

  4. Oblig on Pirate Bay Down; Police Raids Across Europe · · Score: 1, Redundant

    The rumors of my death have been greatly exaggerated

  5. Mobile phone providers too on M2Z's Free, Wireless Broadband Killed In Advance · · Score: 2, Interesting

    If we had 1mb free wireless internet all across the country, the impact would be huge to mobile phone providers. Lots of people would just switch to using wifi and google voice/skype or similar to make calls. 1mb is more than enough to handle a non-video call.

  6. Re:Is It Only Through iTMS Application? on Ping Could Be Apple's Social Networking Backdoor? · · Score: 5, Funny

    "It's Turtlenecks all the way down"

  7. Re:he's lost it on Hawking Picks Physics Over God For Big Bang · · Score: 1

    brane-theory

    Mmmm branes

  8. Re:Annnd... brain goes splat. on Hawking Picks Physics Over God For Big Bang · · Score: 1

    Oh irony, you are so delicious.

    And slightly metallic.

  9. Re:stupid lawsuit, good ruling on Lineage II Addiction Lawsuit Makes It Past the EULA · · Score: 1

    If by weakens, you mean forces everyone to make a stronger EULA, one that protects them against this kind of lawsuit, then yeah, this is really going to weaken EULAs

  10. Re:ok... on Charles Darwin's Best-Kept Secret · · Score: 1

    Oh lets just throw everything on it and see what sticks.

    And when we finally have a manned mission to lush green Mars we are greeted by the lines, "Feed Me!"

  11. A solution on Armed Man Takes Hostages At Discovery Channel HQ · · Score: 1

    The only way to prevent over population (and to stop the future people from coming back to "tuuuk ur jubs") is if we all become Gay. Where does Malthus-Darwin stand on this?

  12. Re:No thanks on Neal Stephenson Unveils His Digital Novel Platform · · Score: 1

    It doesn't clarify if the price is for just the Mongoliad, or access to all books on the site. If it is a subscription based system, you would suspect you could read everything they have, at which point it's reasonable, especially if they regularly add additional content to books already written.

  13. Re:Reminds me of The Matrix. on Assange Rape Case Reopened · · Score: 1

    Here, take this blue pill...

  14. Re:puppies on Assange Rape Case Reopened · · Score: 1

    Baby Seal, stuffed with puppies, stuffed with kittens, stuffed with hamsters

  15. Re:Assange guilty of first degree douchebaggery on Assange Rape Case Reopened · · Score: 1

    The Court of Public Opinion seems to.

  16. Re:Assange guilty of first degree douchebaggery on Assange Rape Case Reopened · · Score: 1

    guilty?

    I in which court?

  17. Re:And if you want a big SSD on New Silicon-Based Memory 5X Denser Than NAND Flash · · Score: 2, Informative

    more IOPS than god

    God doesn't need any Outputs. It's all one-way traffic with him.

  18. Re:Let's see on Ancient Nubians Drank Antibiotic-Laced Beer · · Score: 1

    Or, "expecting mothers drank copious amounts of beer during pregnancy, for it's 'antibiotic' properties"

  19. Re:Great, it's denser. on New Silicon-Based Memory 5X Denser Than NAND Flash · · Score: 1

    I'd say it's a safe bet you won't insult anyone on /. with that comment

  20. Re:Fly agaric and urine-drinking in Siberia on Whisky Made From Diabetics' Urine · · Score: 1

    Well I've heard of a 'sugar high', but this really is taking the piss.

    When you're done taking the piss, I've got a really good idea what we can do with it. I just need to dig out my old distillery.

  21. Re:Scary analogy on No More Need To Reboot Fedora w/ Ksplice · · Score: 1

    "replacing your car's engine while speeding down the highway"

    It would be like updating your Kernel while doing some graphical rendering, or video conversion.

    Using Ksplice should more likely be "like replacing your car engine while parked/idling on the side of the road"

  22. Re:How about good subject lines? on GMail Introduces Priority Inbox · · Score: 1

    I trick people into opening emails with the subject line.

    "FW: FW: FW: Paris Hilton Embarrassing Photo (NSFW)" will ensure that everyone reads important memos.

  23. Re:Confused on Prosecutor Loses Case For Citing Wikipedia · · Score: 1

    Why isn't the ex-wife attending court (for an appeal of marriage annulment no less) in her briefs not the subject of the article?

  24. Re:More likely to die? on Sit Longer, Die Sooner · · Score: 1

    Long live hermaphrodites!

  25. Re:Richest? on Richest Planetary System Discovered With 7 Planets · · Score: 1

    I always went along with the idea that Flammable and Inflammable was like famous and infamous. Flammable was one of the intended properties of the compound, but inflammable was being flammable for all the wrong reasons.
