  1. Headlines on If Extinct Species Can Be Brought Back... Should We? · · Score: 1

    If headlines can be worded awkwardly, should we?

  2. Re:Finally ? on Samsung Reinvents Windows (Not the OS) With Touchscreen Display · · Score: 1

    Being pedantic for its own sake is bad enough, but it takes a special kind of cluelessness to be pedantic while explaining somebody their own joke.

  3. Re:Its a study that admits its incomplete on Study Hints That Wi-Fi Near Testes Could Decrease Male Fertility · · Score: 1

    So you don't have a smartphone in your pocket?

  4. Re:Institutional Incompetence v "Conspiracy Theori on 1 MW Cold Fusion Plant Supposedly To Come Online · · Score: 1

    I can't tell if you are a shizophrenic or one of those random text generators intended to circumvent spam detection.

  5. Re:So? on OpenOffice Is Dying (And IBM Won't Help) · · Score: 1

    +1 funny

  6. Re:W115 = Hendrikje van Andel-Schipper on DNA Sequenced of Woman Who Lived To 115 · · Score: 1

    Wikipedia says that "The Netherlands has the 16th largest economy in the world, and ranks 7th in GDP (nominal) per capita."

  7. Re:All I can say is... on Why Star Wars Should be Left to the Fans · · Score: 1

    Noooooooo!!!!!!!

    Did you mean "DO NOT WANT!"?

  8. Re:Cheaper than a huge flying vacuum on $300M To Save 6 Milliseconds · · Score: 2

    Also, the vacuum would only suck real money.

  9. Re:crop circles on Search For Alien Life On 86 Planets Begins · · Score: 1

    Have you factored the meaning of the word "humour" into your interpretation of GP's post?

  10. Re:Synthesizer on Glove Emulates Musical Instruments · · Score: 1

    Alright, sorry for my inaccuracy.

    SO it's like a really shitty keyboard?

  11. Synthesizer on Glove Emulates Musical Instruments · · Score: 1

    So this is really like an extremely complicated, barely functional synthesizer?

  12. Re:1/3 on Over 7.5 Million Facebook Users Are Under 13 · · Score: 1

    There sure is a lot of guessing going on there... very insightful.

  13. Re:Maximum douche on Face-Mounted Nose Stylus Created For Phones · · Score: 1

    I never thought there'd be a way to look like even more of a douche than missing the point entirely and posting inappropriately smug and condescending comments on Slashdot. Oh wait, there isn't.

  14. Re:major "new" features? on Spotify Challenges iTunes With iPod Support, Playlist Synching · · Score: 1

    Spotify isn't an online music store; it started out as a music streaming service. They are actually doing very well, I've been using Spotify for over a year now and can't even imagine going back to anything else. The Spotify client allows me to purchase mp3's, manage my local library which I ripped from my CD's, and gives me a mind bogglingly huge array of music ready to sream at any time.

    I strongly recommend you give it a try. Dont listen to the naysayers; people who complain about the recent restrictions on free accounts should really consider that a subscription which grants [b]unlimited[/b] access costs $5/month.

  15. Re:DON'T on Ask Slashdot: Best Way To Leave My Router Open? · · Score: 1

    Actually, lots of people let random persons sleep in the spare room of their house. There is even a very popular website to facilitate this concept.

  16. Re:IQ is bullshit ... so? on What Does IQ Really Measure? · · Score: 1

    The problem with IQ is not one of acceptance or usefulness. Some scientists have already pointed out that taking the results of IQ tests at face value has some very Unfortunate Implications, see this article by Paul Barrett for example. (the article points out consistently measured significant differences between IQ scores between races, for example). Basically, IQ is an undefined construct which has a purely statistical basis at best. Nonetheless it is a very widely known construct which has nested itself deeply in the collective psyche.

  17. Re-post on Countries Ranked In Terms of Internet Freedom · · Score: 4, Informative
  18. Re:Populist nonsense on Apple Logging Locations of All iPhone Users · · Score: 1

    You are querying the wrong table. TFA clearly mentions a table named CellLocation. Which would probably contain cellphone location records, just like your table called WifiLocation contains wifi base station locations. I'm not sure if you are trolling or just extremely willfully ignorant.

  19. Re:Wrong problem anyone? on The Hobbit Filming at 48fps · · Score: 0

    attachment:notsureiftroll.jpg
    People get headaches because of 60Hz CRT monitor refresh rates. Which is why faster monitors were invented. The whole issue is moot anyway with LCD displays. This has nothing to do at all with framerates.

  20. Warfrogs on GameStop Buys Impulse From Stardock · · Score: 0

    Good, maybe they can keep a stock of Battletoads now?

  21. Re:"Media has opinions" on IE9 Released, Media Has Opinions · · Score: 1

    The best headline I've ever seen has to be "Tired Gay succumbs to Dix in 200 meters"

  22. Re:"Media has opinions" on IE9 Released, Media Has Opinions · · Score: 0
  23. Re:Here's to hoping Expert's Exchange is among the on Google Goes After Content Farms · · Score: 0

    Or use Duck Duck Go as your search engine and prefix your query with !so.

  24. Triple woosh on UK To Track All Browsing, Email, and Phone Calls · · Score: 0, Troll

    WWOOOOOOOOOSHHHHHHHHH

  25. Re:Absolute Nonsense on The Surreal World of Chatroulette · · Score: 1

    Gender/age is a part of physical appearace? Wow.
