  1. Apropos Icon on Latest WinWorm Spreads Via ICQ And Outlook · · Score: 2, Funny

    The silouhette of Darth Vader in the icon is a nice touch, to my way of thinking.

  2. Re:The CEO of my technology company on Latest WinWorm Spreads Via ICQ And Outlook · · Score: 5, Funny

    I'll send you the bill...

    Shouldn't that be, "I send you this bill to ask your repair"?

  3. Re:A chance to win... on Information Security On An Olympic Scale · · Score: 2

    Make sure to protect your virtual kneecap! Those texture-mapped crow-bars can really put a stop to your dream.

  4. Re:nope, sorry. on Latest WinWorm Spreads Via ICQ And Outlook · · Score: 2

    As soon as virus writers learn how to spell correctly and learn proper grammar, I think we're going to be in some serious trouble.

    Yeah, the /. editors will get their asses kicked by script kiddies in the next 1337 hAx0r Spelling Bee. Then the kiddies will look at Slashcode, and discover that "where" is constantly misspelled as "were", the fixing of which will eliminate those annoying form_key errors.

  5. Re:Another case of denial.......... on Advice for Websites Combating Net.Obscurity? · · Score: 2

    You forgot: "Why am I not getting any E-Mail?!?!"

  6. Re:Manties on Gifts and Toys You Should Pass on This Season? · · Score: 2

    ROFL!! Now, we just need to find someone selling the Manssiere, (the Bro), to go with them.

  7. Re:"guardians of good taste at the Fox Network" on Futurama Season 4 Update from David X. Cohen · · Score: 2

    Irish Sobriety

  8. Re:"guardians of good taste at the Fox Network" on Futurama Season 4 Update from David X. Cohen · · Score: 2

    Humble America

  9. "guardians of good taste at the Fox Network" on Futurama Season 4 Update from David X. Cohen · · Score: 3, Funny

    Some more sentiments in the same vein:

    Military Intelligence
    Bureaucratic Efficiency
    Microsoft Quality
    George W. Bush's Oath of Office

  10. Re:Are they near an airbase? on Disney World Goes 802.11b · · Score: 2

    "Look at the size of that thing!"

  11. Re:Are they near an airbase? on Disney World Goes 802.11b · · Score: 1, Offtopic

    RED LEADER, RED LEADER THIS IS TANGO ONE.

    Don't you mean:
    Red 5: "OK, we're going in, we're going in at full throttle. That ought to keep those fighters off our backs!"
    Red 3: "Luke, at that speed will we be able to pull out in time?"
    Red 5: "It'll be just like Beggar's Canyon back home!"

  12. Re:Not Really Region Free? on Slashback: Regionalism, Rivalry, Zensur · · Score: 2

    It would be very poor of a manufacturer to have a device make a perminant change to itself, limiting functionality, without even warning the user.

    Yeah, that wouldn't be at all like Microsoft, would it? They would no more sell a DVD drive that locked itself into a region without user input that they would make email client after email client that would run attachments or scripts with full access to system-level files without user input.

  13. Re:What have we learned? on Building a Better Webserver · · Score: 2

    A single $999 box isn't going to stand up to Slashdot, unless every page is static.

    Don't you mean, "...unless each page really says *Server too busy*"?

  14. Re:Jif? on Cable Co's Want More Control Over Your Network · · Score: 2

    pictureframe that shows revolving jif's

    You should probably work with Peter Pan Peanut Butter. It won't age the way JIF will.

  15. Re:The two submissions are vastly different, on Transferring the Leadership of Open Source Projects? · · Score: 2

    You forgot: Runs on my old 486 with 4MB RAM, 250MB HDD and 1MB VESA video. And provides 3D positional Surround Sound on my Pro-Audio Spectrum.

  16. Re:is a call to prior art a bad thing? on PNG Group Unconcerned About Apple's Patent · · Score: 2

    Exactly. A bad patent is a bad patent is a bad patent. Just because it doesn't seem to affect $OPEN_SOURCE_PROJECT_DU_JOUR at this moment in time, doesn't mean that it will never do so, or that it doesn't set an unpleasant precedent, or that it will not affect $FUTURE_OPEN_SOURCE_PROJECT.

  17. Re:Drugs? on Ask Tick Creator Ben Edlund · · Score: 2

    Codpiece is perfectly understandable to me anyway. You could also say "cup", the piece of hard plastic or metal you slip into the pocket of an athletic supporter (jock-strap).

  18. Terrorist? WTF? on Bush Wants an Unhackable Private Network · · Score: 2

    Or is there something else a 'net terrorist' could do to 'disrupt the vital flow of information'?"

    I thought this was the government's job, not the terrorist's job.

  19. Re:Hmmm on Museum Of Broken Packets · · Score: 2, Flamebait

    Surely we now need a `Museum of shoddy half-assed software which passes junk as validly formed data`?

    Already there: The Product and Technology Catalog. It even includes a demo if you use Opera to view it!

  20. Re:Where is this museum located? on Museum Of Broken Packets · · Score: 2

    Is it, by any chance, on the Island of Misfit Toys?

    Maybe. Rumor is Hermie, the UDP packet who wants to be a Dentist, started it up to help him pay for dental school.

    Next Weeks Menu!!!

    See! Battle Fil&#233t of SPAM!
    Watch! Combat Bologna Cord&#243n Ble&#250!!

  22. Lacks one thing on C with Safety - Cyclone · · Score: 2

    A mascot. It needs a little animated tornado, maybe named Cyclonius, to pop up and interact with the user.

    "You appear to be coding with Visual Studio. Please stop!"

  23. I won't be in today, Mr. Smithers. on Scourge: The Once and Future Threat of Smallpox · · Score: 4, Funny

    I have Smallpox.

  24. Has to be said... on Return of the Dragon · · Score: 3, Funny

    "I see dead senseis"

    At least he's not dancing with a fucking vacuum cleaner.

  25. Re:Love Plot on New Star Wars Episode II Trailer Out · · Score: 2

    go watch the originals again. They always had that.

    Yes, but does the love story in AOTC involve incestuous themes? Any brothers and sisters, like in the originals?
