  1. Ugly on Bing Gains 10% Marketshare · · Score: 1

    To bad the website is still ugly. I want fast loads and simple design/colors not large pictures of a moose. I say good day to you M$.

  2. Re:This could make things worse... on Engineered Bacteria Glows To Reveal Land Mines · · Score: 1

    How would remote detonators be worse, that would mean someone actually has to be watching..?

    at least then you could possibly see your enemy, that would be better than the landmines now where your enemy is drinking a mai tai while Lt. Dan's is looking for his legs.

  3. Re:Job Security on If the Comments Are Ugly, the Code Is Ugly · · Score: 1

    haha I'm okay, I work for the gov and I mainly do easy scripting. I was joking for the most part, because I'm to dumb not to comment on larger apps.

    But I would make a good car salesmen. Preferably used cars.

  4. Job Security on If the Comments Are Ugly, the Code Is Ugly · · Score: 1

    I barely comment; JOB Security baby...

    I do however keep a personal notes file of the few items I find interesting, or harder to work out; JUST in case I can't remember or tie together wtf I was doing.

  5. NBU on Computer Failure Causes Gridlock In MD County · · Score: 2, Funny

    http://www.symantec.com/netbackup

    Just throwing that out there.

  6. I live there on Computer Failure Causes Gridlock In MD County · · Score: 1

    I live around this area and I hadn't noticed anything. I haven't heard anyone complain either..

    I guess traffic was a little heavier yesterday. Traffic sucks all the time, if it rains it is the apocalypse.

    Hmm.. Strange.

  7. Google, Facebook, Yahoo! Oh My! on Internet Traffic Shifting Away From Tier-1 Carriers · · Score: 1

    This seems like common sense to me... I mean anyone want to raise there hand if their homepage isn't on that top 30 list (other than /. or blank).

  8. Cell phones? on FCC Considers Opening Up US Broadband Access · · Score: 5, Interesting

    Can they do this with cell phone networks too? Not only to stop the Verizon "Can you hear me now", but I imagine that would focus on better phones rather than commercials about a fscking map.

    Just wonderin'

  9. PSSSST on Yahoo! Opens Floodgates On Homepage To Devs · · Score: 1

    http://dictionary.reference.com/browse/Binoculars?o=

    *moves Yahoo CEO until he's facing the Google building* Pssst, Maybe you should try stealing! It'll keep you closer to the curve.

    Get ready for the iYahoo deployment next week!

    (All in all I think it'll be a good move for Yahoo, but obviously a bit late to matter..)

  10. Re:I think he may possibly deserver the prize on Barack Obama Wins the 2009 Nobel Peace Prize · · Score: 1

    I completely agree.

    "his extraordinary efforts to strengthen international diplomacy and cooperation between peoples".

    So why did he get nominated in February again?

    I think the real problem is, he might deserve it toward the end of his tenure... why award it now and belittle its meaning.

  11. Re:I think he may possibly deserver the prize on Barack Obama Wins the 2009 Nobel Peace Prize · · Score: 1

    Nominations for this award where closed out early Feb. Two weeks after he took office... So I'm gonna go ahead and doubt that.

    "Barack Obama Wins Nobel Peace Prize--Nominations Closed 02/01/09 (ABC's Website)"

    If they are going to award the Nobel Peace Prize for intentions, then it should go every year to Miss America for pushing "World Peace."
