  1. Re:Pencil and Paper on Programming With Proportional Fonts? · · Score: 1

    Nah, I punched clay tablets.

  2. Re:What kind of shape is that on Willow Garage To Give Away 10 Open Source Robots · · Score: 1, Insightful

    If these robots really want to start an apocalypse, they'll have to be able to figure that out themselves.

  3. Very nice. on Willow Garage To Give Away 10 Open Source Robots · · Score: 2, Interesting

    Now I just need one of these in a hamster ball.

  5. Re:It's called evidence... on Airport Scanners Can Store and Transmit Images · · Score: 0

    If they see something suspicious from the scanner, they could just, you know, search them some more. Then just use the stuff they find as their evidence.

  6. Re:Imagine... on Futuristic Sex Robots Now Just "Sex Robots" · · Score: 0

    I hear that's the only major issue in the male version.

  7. Re:Imagine... on Futuristic Sex Robots Now Just "Sex Robots" · · Score: 0

    I at least hope it's not Windows. I wouldn't want to be ... using her when she suddenly stops working.

  8. Awesome security on Blizzard Authenticators May Become Mandatory · · Score: 0

    Sounds secure. Why don't they use it for our credit cards instead? (or both)

  9. Re:What is so great about the invisibility cloak? on Making a Liquid Invisibility Cloak · · Score: 0

    I'd rather be invisible in a chocolate factory.

  10. Salt? on Gravatars Can Leak Users' Email Addresses · · Score: 0

    I'm no expert in cryptography, but would it be helpful for them to add a salt? (Unless they do that already, of course)

  11. Don't slice on The Perfect Way To Slice a Pizza · · Score: 0

    Don't slice the pizza at all. Keep it all for yourself. Sure, it'll be harder to eat, but at least you'll be guaranteed to get the whole thing.

  12. Taskbar? on Will Tabbed Windows Be the Next Big Thing? · · Score: 0

    So, is this just a new taskbar?

  13. What about the gold? on Tapering Waveguide Captures a Rainbow · · Score: 0

    I'd say this is useless unles they've also trapped the gold.

  14. Re:Technically... on Is That Sushi Hazardous To Your Health? · · Score: 1

    How do you know what it's like to chew on an eyeball?

  15. Is it really a surprise? on New Microsoft Silverlight Features Have Windows Bias · · Score: 1

    Is anyone actually surprised that it has a Windows bias?

  16. Re:But Unfortunately... on Intel Says Brain Implants Could Control Computers By 2020 · · Score: 1

    I, for one, welcome our new brain implant overlords.

  17. Why that name anyway? on Google Under Fire For Calling Their Language "Go" · · Score: 1

    Why did they choose Go for a name anyway? Sounds like it would be very hard to search for information about it.

  18. Lock down their PC on Easing the Job of Family Tech Support? · · Score: 0

    Create a separate administrator account and give them normal user priviliges, or whatever it's called on Windows. And just don't tell them the admin password.

  19. Just wondering... on Web Open Font Format Gets Backing From Mozilla · · Score: 1

    How will this affect download times?

  20. Re:safer users on Microsoft Links Malware Rates To Pirated Windows · · Score: 1

    There are plenty of people that sell computers with pirated versions of Windows installed. Of course, the really computer illiterate will buy from someplace like FutureShop.

  21. Re:Not an Eee! on Asus Releases Desktop-Sized Supercomputer · · Score: 1

    I hope they collaborate with Richard Stallman, too, so we can have the Eeemacs text editor with it!

  22. Re:Screensavers? on Companies To Invade Your Retinas As Soon As Next Year? · · Score: 1

    Nah, they would be too distracting.

  23. Re:Except that on Save the Planet, Eat Your Dog · · Score: 1

    Well, if you're having a bird as a pet, you sure as hell shouldn't be giving it freedom!

  24. Just wondering... on White House Website Switches To Open Source · · Score: 2

    Just out of curiosity, what were they using before?

  25. Re:Great... on White House Website Switches To Open Source · · Score: 1

    Hey, at least it's open source, so it must be a good thing!
