  1. How Ironic... on Open Media, Take Two: The Sensemakers · · Score: 1

    You wax despondent about the filtering's ability to reinforce your extant views at the expense of challenging your beliefs.

    Judging by your Trollin' Fo' Jefus posts on othe articles, you aren't challenging your own beliefs as it is.

    Troll.

  2. Cloning for political Advancement on Australian Scientists Produce Giant Mutant Mice · · Score: 1

    The most obvious use of cloning is to grab cells of children destined to be political figures! Grow them in a vat...if the person does become famous/infamous you've got tabloid fodder of the highest order!

    Put the clone in a compromising position...a blood drenched midget orgy, kicking a puppy, slapping a ho...and tape it!

    Instant Blackmail.

  3. Spoken like a true Ignoramus on Overclocking The AMD Duron · · Score: 1

    Whats wrong with tweaking something you have to make it run faster? Car, computer, code...etc?

    I suppose that when your code runs too slowly you don't optimize it...you go buy a new machine, right?

    Nah...with that attitude you probably don't write code...

  4. AIX is not Cool? on Linux Replaces Sun At Weather.com · · Score: 1

    Why is AIX not cool for corporate computer people while Sun is?

    All I can say is the Solaris on x86 systems I used in College were utter crap compared to AIX 4.3.3 on the H70s I deal with at work.

    The AIX documentation is astounding compared to what you get from Sun!

  5. As Did Ministry on Symphony For Dot Matrix Printers · · Score: 1

    The song "Thieves" on "The Mind Is A Terrible Thing To Taste" has sampled printers.

    Check it out!

  6. I had a rant that agreed with you on Appeals Court Upholds COPA Decision · · Score: 1

    But I'm just too tired and cynical today to care.

    Maybe another time.

  7. Re:I think you're lying! on Court Orders Owner Of Peta.org To Give Up Domain · · Score: 1

    Hopefully you do this in Texas, so when the lunatic confesses you can share the poor person's fate.

  8. I think you're lying! on Court Orders Owner Of Peta.org To Give Up Domain · · Score: 1

    Say some crazed lunatic had a dog, and a person both chained to a wall. He had a shotgun. He was only going to kill one of the two, but you had to choose which he would kill.

    Which would you pick?

  9. Read the effin ARTICLE! on Beta BeOS R5 OpenGL Benchmarks Smoke Linux and Win · · Score: 1

    Dumbass.

  10. Too Cool! on Computers And The Noise They Make · · Score: 1

    I wish the tour info was more up to date. Alas, the 6/21 tour in montreal is too short notice, and the November Montreal tour is impossible as I will be in Australia.

    I'd love to see this show. Reminds me of EPCOT center when it first opened...

  11. Hell Yeah! on Computers And The Noise They Make · · Score: 1

    Noises mean it's working!

  12. It would just be a client... on AOL To Open AIM Protocol? · · Score: 1

    Just a client that would sign on as yourself or an ID you own. For example, a coworker wrote one that he would run when not at his desk. Any messages would be mailed to his pager. Since our org uses email address as the unique ID for our IM system, the next logical step is to encode the reply-to so that you can converse over the IM system w/ your 2-way pager!

    Not much time for this thee days...it's a shame. Should n't take to long either...

  13. Nice! I can write a bot now! on AOL To Open AIM Protocol? · · Score: 2

    I've been doing bots and such with the Lotus SameTime product, which is an off-shoot of the AOL IM product. It's usefull to have an entity available that is hooked into your Enterprise Directory so a person look-up is only an IM away. The API is horrid! It uses lots of class variables so that you can only have one connection to the server per JVM! Ugly. The Win32 API is not an option for me ;-). Hopefully AOL will provide an API a bit more...uh...modular than SameTime's

    I did see a page which had some of the AIM protocol reverse engineered, but I figured since the MS/AOL pissing match the page would be out of date.

  14. Re:the book was good...No, really! on The Battlefield Earth Contest · · Score: 1

    I bet you don't get quite as insulting about things when you are face-to-face with someone, now do you? Why do so on an online forum?

    You call AIX a dying OS? Jeeze...but I'd guess you'd think so if your job consisted of setting up Windows machines.

  15. Re:the book was good...No, really! on The Battlefield Earth Contest · · Score: 1

    You need some more face-time sparky.

  16. Re:the book was good...No, really! on The Battlefield Earth Contest · · Score: 1

    You're a fine one to speak about art. I wouldn't call Ranma any kind of great work. So angry....so angry...

  17. Ahoy there Sissy! on Massive DDoS Attack Brewing? · · Score: 1

    Whatcha got in your mouth Sissy?

    - Earlmeyer the Butt Pirate.

  18. Lobotomy as Punishment?!? on Taking On A Spammer · · Score: 1

    I thought a lobotomy was a prerequisit of using MS products! :)

  19. Atom and His Package not signed on At Last And At Length: Lars Speaks · · Score: 1

    But they tour everywhere and sell CDs. So even though they are technically not signed by a label, the download was done because somebody wanted to avoid buy a CD, not because somebody wanted to check this no-name band out.

  20. Twiki was BLACK! on Robotic Short Order Cook · · Score: 1

    Sure his skin was silver, but he was a soul-brotha all the way. He kinda rapped, and he had that big ol' chain and medalion! word!

  21. Re:typical MIT nerd dork on French Court To Yahoo!: Dump Nazi-Related Auctions · · Score: 1

    hahah...yeah...I read about 3 paragraphs...

    I see an early death for that guy...most likely involving a blunt object to the back of the head followed by a short-lived career in movies of the sort which make it to www.bangedup.com

    Most of us got over that sort of behaviour in high school, but there always are "late bloomers"

  22. dddoooooohhhhhhhh on New, More Destructive Love Bug Variant · · Score: 1

    That was witty...

    Sounds like a lyric a bad highschool band would come up with.

  23. PC Hiding behind Copyright Law on Dialectizer Shut Down · · Score: 1

    It's painfully obvious that these sites would not threaten bablefish or other such "non parody" translation engines.

    Some dumb shit probably linked through the dialectizer to Bank America, was outraged that Bank America was so rascist as to be written in 'Jive' and threatened to sue. And Bank America seeking refuge from the countless bullshit lawsuits claiming discrimination found this a relatively cost-effective way to reduce possible attacks from sleazy trial lawyers.

    Makes sense in a twisted way...

  24. Done on What AI Elements Could Improve the Web? · · Score: 1

    try wine.com

  25. Europe Not Socialist Back Then... on AMD's Duron Slated For June · · Score: 1

    Europe was far from socialist during the colonization days.
