  1. Re:Why Kirk is Better Than Picard on Giant Paramount Auction of Star Trek Items · · Score: 1
    Kirk wore a uniform.

    One word: Velour.

    'Nuff said.
  2. Re:Great scott! on Change of Focus for Liquid Crystals · · Score: 1

    Those things are expensive! You should really try to stop being so surprised.

  3. Re:We have you surrounded on Windows Media Player 11 and Urge · · Score: 1
    Come out with your hands up, bend over, this won't hurt us a bit.

    There, fixed that for you.

  4. Will they give tickets? on Microsoft Introduces Pay-as-You-Go Computing · · Score: 1

    After using my tokens and playing Windows, will I get tickets from my PC that I can redeem for prizes at Chuck E. Cheese?

    *SMOKE*

  6. Re:Bah! on Microsoft Releases Vista Hardware Requirements · · Score: 1

    Just you wait until you see what the Jack of Spades is doing to the Queen of Hearts!

  7. Re:Wohoo on Dell to Use AMD Chips in its Servers · · Score: 1
    Now this means we can't equate Dell with Hell in terms of heat output?

    Relax, there's still calling their "tech support".

  8. Re:No need for Suse Linux on Novell Delivers Device Driver Breakthrough · · Score: 1

    Since it's from Outer Space, it MUST be better than anything terrestrials have come up with!

  9. Re:How typical! on Gates Claims PC Era Not Over Yet · · Score: 1
    That's an interesting position from someone who claims that Indianapolis is not in the USA, but rather an "other place" in some remote corner of the world far from the USA.

    As to exotic; well, if you find algae, potholes and big hair exotic, then more power to you.

  10. Re:Faked Demo? on Sony Fakes Blu-Ray Demo? · · Score: 1, Troll
    It's not liked they faked the demo and entered it as courtroom evidence in a criminal trial.



    Poor Sony, playing second-best behind Microsoft.

  11. Re:The article is 100% wrongheaded on Wireless Security Attacks and Defenses · · Score: 1

    You got a lot farther than I did. I got to the part about sticking an antenna into the PCMCIA slot to get a wireless connection and gave up on finding and intelligent discussion in the article.

  12. Re:MPlayer on New Windows Media Player Leaks · · Score: 1
    I have a PIII running Windows 98SE with Windows Media Player 9 - it is very slow to load.

    That's because you're not using the right product. The Pentium III makes the Internet go faster, not the Media Player.

  13. I hear... on Oracle VP Robert Shrimp on Enterprise Search · · Score: 1

    that the Jefferies Tubes are a good place to make a clandestine Enterprise search.

  15. Re:Whaaa? on Kororaa Accused of Violating GPL · · Score: 1

    Get drunk and watch "Stimpy's Invention" over and over and over!

  16. Re:Let's be absolutely clear about this on Making the Most of IT support? · · Score: 1
    It boils down to the fact that IT is a loss for the company. It is a net loser which produces nothing that makes money.

    Lucky for you that your company is able to implement such a simple solution: Turn off all the computers and get rid of IT! The expenses disappear and profits go up.

    If someone else in the company can't use their computer because of some IT-administrative issue (lost password, etc) then the company is losing money because they can't make any money with the computer in an unusable state.

    That makes no sense. You just stated that IT produces nothing that makes money. It seems like your example employee should be MORE productive and generate MORE profit for the company at times when he is unable to use the "products" of the IT department.

  17. Re:Hmmmmmmmmmn, on Bio-diesel Made from Sewage · · Score: 4, Funny
    shit eating algae ... start in Washington?

    Some might say it's already started.

  18. Re:Is your palm blinking red, Taco? on CmdrTaco becomes An Old(er) Man · · Score: 1

    You're just GAGGING for a new low in Slashdot color schemes, aren't you? You thought they couldn't get any worse than it.slashdot.org or games.slashdot.org, didn't you? Now, prepare yourself for .slashdot.org!

  19. So that's why on Dwarf Galaxies Discovered · · Score: 5, Funny

    I understand now why I don't see Orion in the sky all year round: He's off with Perseus and Hercules drinking and dwarf-galaxy tossing!

  20. Re:Google Earth named best visual design on 2006 Webby Award Winners Announced · · Score: 1

    Is that where Chelsea Charms lives? Wouldn't suprise me if you could see them from space.

  21. Re:Web 3D on Mapping a Path For the 3D Web · · Score: 1

    Takes that porno blooper where the cameraman gets "hit" to a whole new level.

  22. Re:Don't we already have tiered service? on Small Cable Groups Seek To Break Net Neutrality · · Score: 1

    Yes, but these new tiers go to Eleven!

  23. If you have to explain the joke... on Warcraft Movie In The Works? · · Score: 1
  24. Early reports indicate on Warcraft Movie In The Works? · · Score: 1

    The big, full-cast musical finale will be the runaway hit, "The Internet is for Porn".

  25. Re:My first reaction on Final Fantasy XIII Announced At E3 · · Score: 1

    Mr. Crimsane, this is the most blatant case of false advertising since my suit against the film "The Never-Ending Story".
