  1. Re:Ahhh, but what they don't know is... on Windows XP to Target MP3 Files · · Score: 1

    mod this up. It's funny.. :)

  2. If you want to read something really funny... on Why Community Matters · · Score: 1

    ...try this article

  3. Re:why not give the planes an escort on Hyperreality: The U.S-China Standoff · · Score: 1

    I think the idea is to try to not get noticed...

  4. My favorite interstitials... on Bringing Interruption-Based Ads To the Web · · Score: 1

    ...are the ones that say "We're just showing this to you until the page you requested is loaded." But if you look at the lights on the cable modem, nothings being loaded. There's just some timer keeping me from seeing the page I want.

  5. Re:What the hell happened to Java? on PDA Giant Sharp Promises Linux-Running PDAs · · Score: 1
    Good luck trying to get Personal Java on anything but a PDA. It's possible, but Sun has little/no info on how to do it. Besides, why would you want to run any interpreted language on a limited resource machine, when you can compile C++ to native machine code? Java is too slow and requires too much memory to be useful.

    Oh. I'm a Java Programmer...

  6. MIR-day on Guess When Mir Will Splash · · Score: 1
    2001-4-02 12:00:00.

    Wouldn't it be cool if it dropped on April Fool's day? No.. I guess it wouldn't.

    Look at all the people who need new t-shirts.. :)

  7. What's wrong with browsers.. on W3C On How To Fix Browsers · · Score: 2

    .. is the fucking advertising shit they put on them like the "Shopping bar" and all that 'I'm an AOL user-I don't know how to go to ebay myself' crap. If all the browser makers would just strip down the interface to the essential stuff for going to web pages, they could focus more on fixing the damn inconsistencies with the spec's.

  8. Re:...and braille? on W3C On How To Fix Browsers · · Score: 1

    Haven't you ever watched the movie 'Sneakers'? The thing the blind guy had...

  9. An alternative.. on Napster Introduces Subscription Charge · · Score: 1
    Why not just show an ad banner when using Napster, and they could use the proceeds to pay off the overbearing music industry? Beats me having to pay for it..

  10. Re:What about just running a httpd on your box... on Napster Introduces Subscription Charge · · Score: 1
    "What am I missing?"

    The MP3 search engine..

  11. Tunnels on Infiltration · · Score: 1
    One of the coolest things we did at Penn State was to play Laser Tag at midnight in the old tunnels. They have tunnels that connect several buildings' basements. So much room to play, and we only ran into a security guard once.

  12. Kenwood on What Audio System Powers Your Home Theater? · · Score: 1

    Kenwood makes the best recievers anywhere. However, their speakers aren't much to speak of. Get a Kenwood with Optical in's and surround outs. Then maybe BOSE shelf speakers and you have to have an Infinity woofer.

  13. Re:Sick of It on Racism At Microsoft? · · Score: 1

    My thoughts exactly..

  14. Re:Learn to fucking read on Bill Gates's email - about Linux · · Score: 1

    "Can't you motherfucking morons learn to fucking read? It's a fucking satire, and you report it as God's-truth NEWS. Slashdot fucking sucks anymore. Go to .5e instead. Stupid fucks."

    Can't you fucking read? This is like the 1,000th post stating that the letter was fake. Give it up. Read more comments before posting!!

  15. Huh? on D&D Trailer · · Score: 1

    What's so big about Drag & Drop? And where do the dice come in??

    -=Yankees Rule=-

  16. Re:What pisses me off as H1-B on Senate Pushes H1-B Visa Bill · · Score: 1
    If Al Gore gets elected, no one will collect social security...

  17. Brain pain on Overcomming Programmer's Block? · · Score: 1

    Try cleaning off your desk, and getting a big piece of paper and sketching out your ideas. If you don't like it, throw it away and start again.

  18. Can't you just picture it:? on Faster Than Supersonic Travel - Underwater · · Score: 2

    " ... Ladies and gentleman. In the event we lose cabin pressure, 75 pound SCUBA tanks will drop from the ceiling above you. Place the mask securely on your face, slip into your wet suit, and pull the straps to tighten. Your seat cushion may also be used as a floatation device..."



    -- "Computer Literacy? You mean my computer is supposed to read?"

  19. What a piece of crap! on Netscape 6 Preview Release · · Score: 1

    It looks like something a 1st grader would draw.

    What happened to the "hold down the back button and get a list of previous sites" so that you could back up by a whole bunch at a time? And why is there a Search button where the "Go" button should be?

    All in all, it looks terrible and isn't intuitive at all. Man, I really wanted to stop using IE, but...Sorry Netscape. You lose.
