  1. Re:co-op! on Non-Deathmatch: Preempt v. Low-Latency Patch · · Score: 2
    Hmm. Let me count the ways:
    • Windows 3.0
    • Windows 3.1
    • Windows for Workgroups
    • Windows 95
    • Windows 98
    • Windows 98SE

    The list goes on...

    Well, let's just make it definitive. Run it through the "CmdrTaco Ofishul Spalchukkar" and let's see what we get:
    • preumtailable
    Well, there...you...go!
  3. Re:I think... on Scientology Uses DMCA to Delist Critic's Website · · Score: 2

    Dubya forgot to mention one member of his "Axis of Evil".

    Google? Despite this, it's still the best search engine for my needs today.

  4. Re:http://twiki.org/ on Beginning Project Documentation? · · Score: 3, Funny

    TWiki, a flexible, powerful, and easy to use Web-based collaboration platform...

    Does it have an audible announcement for notifications? Maybe something along the lines of, "BeeDeeBeeDeeBeeDee. Hey, Buck!"

  5. Oxymoron on Virtual Keyboard a Reality · · Score: 3, Funny

    So is "Slashdot Editor" for that matter.

  6. Re: Lawsuits everywhere! on Virtual Keyboard a Reality · · Score: 2

    ...placed his virtual keyboard on...Ravenous Bugblatter Beast of Traal...

    It's his own damn fault for not closing his eyes. Like sticking your tongue in a light socket and expecting to NOT get zapped. Dip.

  7. Re:NICE! on Virtual Keyboard a Reality · · Score: 2

    It's like the trackpoint on a notebook :)

    If, that is, you can find it. American males, for example, tend to be very deficient in this particular regard.

  8. Re:Thanks for picking on us, CNN... on Stealth Asteroid Misses Earth · · Score: 4, Funny

    Couldn't you have talked about it hitting somewhere where I don't live? Like Kabul, or something? Maybe Baghdad?

    Or Redmond, Washington.

  9. Re:or militia movement on Alleged eBay Hacker Goofs up and Goes to Jail · · Score: 2
    There are a few people who belive that the Sixteenth Amendment was never ratified that think that your name in all caps is the name of a legal fiction.

    Maybe it's just me, but how does your statement, and this case, relate to this:
    • Amendment XVI
    • The Congress shall have power to lay and collect taxes on incomes, from whatever source derived, without apportionment among the several states, and without regard to any census of enumeration.
  10. Re:Why don't they... on Former Penthouse Lawyer On Thumbnails · · Score: 2

    You have to be able to do this for a full workday, without having to stop for a moist towellete and a nap after xx minutes.

  11. Hmm. Wonder why on Another Go At Making Spam Cost Money · · Score: 5, Funny

    From the eTracks homepage:
    Not only is your target moving...It's picking up speed.

    Now I wonder why that is. Could it be that your "target" is trying to not receive your fucking worthles spam? Perhaps they are satisfied with their penis size? Maybe they don't want to about losing 150 pounds in three days? Perhaps the Ladies Quilting Club down at the retirement center isn't interested in tight teen anal sex?

  12. Re: total of 5+ days without access on University Network Policies and Punishment? · · Score: 3, Funny

    respond in a manner befitting an ISP

    You mean, walk you through setting up your Windows98 network and dial-up settings, no matter how many times you have done it on a particular call, no matter what the problems you are having are and no matter what OS you are using, be it Win9x, WinNT, Mac, *NIX, OS/2, etc?

  14. GNU/Linux driver in the works? on Analog Tachometer PC Mod · · Score: 1, Flamebait

    If this thing measures your RPMs, seems like it would already work on Linux. Besides, the RedHat Package Manager already has a progress meter that will move faster the faster a package is installed. the command 'rpm -ih' will turn on hashes during install.

  15. InstallShield on Microsoft, zlib, and Security Flaws · · Score: 5, Informative

    InstallShield is written and published by a company named InstallShield, and has been for many years. It is not a "Microsoft technology", but rather a technology that has support for creating software installation routines for Windows, amongst other OSes.

    "Me neither. Want to go get a beer?"
    "Dude!"

  18. Re:Well then... on FCC: Cable ISPs Need Not Give Competitors Access · · Score: 3, Funny

    There is no incentive for the cablecos to screw over their customers since they have a monopoly in many areas.

    Quite the opposite. Since the cable companies have a monopoly in most, if not all areas, they can screw their customers over without fear of losing them to another cable company.

    ...to make their software as reliable and trustworthy as electric, water, and telephone service

    Well, Windows is already more reliable than Ameritech or Indianapolis Power & Light Co. The water company still has 'em beat, though.

    Where would it go? The whole thing is one big idiocy.
