    Hey, I rather liked "Opteron: The Last Airbender".


    What?

  2. Re:Two many? on Intel Names Upcoming Chips · · Score: 1
    Pffft. It'll be buggy. I'll wait until they release the Rev. 2 version.

    Come on, Rev. 1.99995827903 is close enough for nontechnical people.

  3. Re:The unsinkable Kernel on Microkernel: The Comeback? · · Score: 1

    Well, then it will be the ideal kernel for a machine running an Unbreakable Database.

    Wow, that sure was a long-winded way of saying, "Bad guys come to town."

  7. Re:Analyzing Anomalous Materials on First Neutron Pulse from SNS · · Score: 1
    Sure, it starts out that way, but before you know it you've opened up a gateway to another dimesion.

    It's just Cartman's ass. Jeez....

  8. Re:Phrasing on Nintendo Revolution Renamed 'Wii' · · Score: 1
    I'm sorry, but I can't find the right way to incorprate the Wii into conversation.

    How is drinking lots of Mt. Dew like taping 2 Nintendos together?

    You end up with Wii-Wii!

  9. Re:Can't they just... on Australians to Get Compulsory Photo ID Smartcard · · Score: 1

    That still depends on their readers working properly. Perhaps tattooing the ID numbers on the wrist would be a better option.

  10. Re:The Lord knew. on The World's Deepest Dinosaur · · Score: 1

    Thank the Lord that the knucklebone in question was designed intelligently enough to last this long.

    Uh-oh.

    Steve will regard this as a "trade secret" and sue the pants of Woz.

    He's only going to sue Woz's pants? Wouldn't it be more profitable to sue Woz himself?

    The first rule of Penguin Club is you don't talk about Penguin Club.

  22. Re:Call the FBI on D-Link Firmware Abuses Open NTP Servers · · Score: 1
    Not to mention that the server in question is providing a service critical to the DIX infrastructure. His NTP server is so important to the Denmark public networks, he is given a very expensive connection to the network in return for providing it. It seems that it would be a very compelling reason to get the Danish law enforcement involved to work with the FBI, etc. to resolve the issue.

    D-Link, in it's refusal to correct a mistake and continuing belligerence, now appears to to be knowingly contributing to a botnet that is perpetrating a Distributed Denial-of-Service attack against a critical public utility in another sovergeign nation.

  23. Re:send NTP replies with very low IP TTL on D-Link Firmware Abuses Open NTP Servers · · Score: 1

    It's D-Link though. If it doesn't receive an answer, who's to say it won't simply increase its request rate until it does? Kind of like an American tourist in France yelling louder and louder on the theory that screaming at someone will somehow make them understand English.

  24. Re:Sony's reaction on Lucent Sues Microsoft, Wants All 360s Recalled · · Score: 1

    Well, in Sony's favor, they've likely already rooted any number of music-lover's computers at the Lucent offices.

    Well, I can think of SOMETHING that qualifies as recent:
