  1. Re:Woot..? on XBMC4XBOX 3.0.1 Stable Released · · Score: 1

    Yah, the hot swap is easy as pie.. Playing a song to unlock the drive, good thinking.. I unplugged the DVD Rom and booted it which crashes it in a red-ring, unlocked state.. The process is so easy.... chips are for suckers ;)

  2. Re:How? on Windows 8 ARM Will Not Support Legacy Software · · Score: 1

    hence the (initially) part of the statement. Once the viruses and malware are compiled for ARM, then its back to business as usual.

  3. Re:Anti-groups are obsessed with what they hate on Apple Causes Religious Reaction In Brains of Fans · · Score: 1

    I'm not new to the internet, but I dont see a lot of Apple Buttsecks? What sites are you visiting? Funny how you rant about generalizations, and then generalize internet trolls as living in their parents basement obsessed with anal rape and apple users..

    ...and as an athiest, i can hosently say, i have never trolled a christian or butt raped an apple user.

  4. Re:It's a cult. on Apple Causes Religious Reaction In Brains of Fans · · Score: 1

    I've always thought Apple has a great marketing machine. But really, their job is made unbelievably easy thanks to all the fanatics.

    I would say all the fanatics are a result of their marketing machine.

    for the record, I am not a fanatic, but I do have an iPod.

  5. instead of snow days on Internet Could Mean End of "Snow Days" · · Score: 1

    Instead of snow days, the kids will have "over my bandwidth cap days".... Please excuse Timmy from the online lecture, we used up our bandwidth using Netflix

  6. Could work for Sony. on Verifying Passwords By the Way They're Typed · · Score: 0

    measure how you play a game... if you make smart choices in the game, you are probably to smart to give your credit card to Sony, and therefore are not the actual account holder..

  7. Good news for Apple on Apple Causes Religious Reaction In Brains of Fans · · Score: 2

    They should be a tax free religious organization now.

    and making fun of an apple user is now a hate crime

  8. Re:sorry on US Preserves Smallpox For Defense · · Score: 1

    its worse than I thought.

  9. Re:long term security comes to mind on US Preserves Smallpox For Defense · · Score: 1

    10 - 100 9 / 11 = 81.7272727272727273. definately scary stuff.

  10. Ok, time to rally.. on The FSF's Campaign Against the Nintendo 3DS · · Score: 1

    Everyone buy a 3DS and take pictures of your Bowel Movements.. Should make for an interesting ad campaign for Nintendo.

    Its an extension of my TweetPoop campaign to Tweet the Conservastive Party of Canada everyone I sit on the can.

  11. Re:Habitable on Gliese 581d Confirmed as 'Habitable' Exoplanet · · Score: 1

    habitable adjective/habitbl/Suitable or good enough to live in

    In order for me to figure a planet suitable for me to live on, I would prefer something earth-like, as opposed to say, a bubbling cauldron of methan gas.

  12. Re:It's a drug smuggling tunnel! on Tunnel Boring Machine Completes Hole Under Niagara Falls · · Score: 1

    Wouldnt it have to cross the border to be a smuggling tunnel? Seems off to use a tunnel to get drugs from one part of a city over to another part of a city. Most canadians use a truck for that.

  13. Re:Uninformative! on Bing Adds 'Like' Button · · Score: 1

    its a perfectly cromulent idea, that embiggens the bing search engine

  14. Re:I am a curmudgeon on Bing Adds 'Like' Button · · Score: 1

    nope.... next question?

  15. Re:"Rogers Center"s? on Tunnel Boring Machine Completes Hole Under Niagara Falls · · Score: 1

    It's equivelent to about 18,000,000 Ten Commandment monuments.

  16. Re:The reason on Tunnel Boring Machine Completes Hole Under Niagara Falls · · Score: 1

    You do realize the tunnel doesnt cross a border right?

  17. Re:No, I'm not going to RTFA just to find out on Tunnel Boring Machine Completes Hole Under Niagara Falls · · Score: 1

    Yah, from one side of a Canadian city to the other? We never did figure out that smuggling thing... note this tunnel does not cross the border.

  18. Re:The real reason for the tunnel on Tunnel Boring Machine Completes Hole Under Niagara Falls · · Score: 1

    Then they should make a tunnel that actually spans the border. This tunnel is under Niagra, not under the river.

  19. Re:I wish they on Tunnel Boring Machine Completes Hole Under Niagara Falls · · Score: 1

    perhaps because the general audience would be bored to death by raw numbers.. this is light, yay for us story in a shitty newspaper. Their readership doesn't want to sit and think about numbers, they want to get little quotes like 'enough rock to fill the skydome' that they can impress their friends with at the coffee maker.. The amound of rock and the amount of concrete doesnt matter to the story at all, its just fluff to make the reader feel smart.. Slashdot is a different audience, we may want to see actual units of measure, design specs and tolerances... The average douch in Toronto reading this article on his coffee break could care less.

    Shut up and go make me a sandwich.

  21. Re:I Agree, Ban Wifi In Schools... on GSM Association Slams Euro Call For Ban On Wireless In School · · Score: 1

    Yeah, the last thing we want in schools is modernization and progress.. All schools should be single room buildings with a cranky school marm. Smack the left handed kids with rulers and make the slightly less developed child wear a dunce cap...

    In my day we didnt have mobile computers, we had small-pox, thats the way it was and we LIKED it.

  22. Re:So ... on Tunnel Boring Machine Completes Hole Under Niagara Falls · · Score: 1

    that sir, is the funniest quip ive seen here in a long while.

  23. Re:Canadian units? on Tunnel Boring Machine Completes Hole Under Niagara Falls · · Score: 1

    Since the SkyDome (Rogers Centre) was built in the 80's all its measurments were done in Metric.. Therefor, a Rogers Centre is a metric measurment.. We have Rogers Centremeters, Rogers Centrelitres and Rogers Centreminutes (a unit of time established by how long it takes to open the roof).

  24. Re:"Rogers Center"s? on Tunnel Boring Machine Completes Hole Under Niagara Falls · · Score: 1

    Well, since its currently the Rogers centre, you can't fill it with rock.. You can put 60 ton of rock in, and each adition ton will cost you $2.50.

    In this case, the sponsor owns most of the media
