  1. Re:Oh no.... on Scientists Discover Solar Powered Hornets · · Score: 1

    Just let me get my lead box out...

  2. Re:Good! on Doubling of CO2 Not So Tragic After All? · · Score: 1

    I'm pretty sure Mr. Burns doesn't run the government yet.

  3. Re:Why does the USDA have 120,000 employees? on USDA Services Moving To the Microsoft Cloud · · Score: 2

    The Forest Service is in that department, for example.

  4. Re:Burn, maybe not... on President Obama On Mythbusters Tonight · · Score: 1

    Let's see what they can MacGyver with Slaves, Bronze, Olive Oil, and a Laurel Wreath.

  5. Re:Irony on US To Host World Press Freedom Day · · Score: 1

    Despite appearances, it definitely wasn't an anemic post.

  6. Re:If you didn't do anything wrong, on DDoS Attack On Wikileaks Increasing · · Score: 1

    Sounds to me like Duck and smother.

  7. Re:So that mean on Hong Kong Team Stores 90GB of Data In 1g of Bacteria · · Score: 1

    If this is a step toward brain bleach, I'm all for it!

  8. Re:I certainly hope so on Microsoft (Probably) Didn't Just Buy Unix · · Score: 1

    What are you talking about?? I'm sure Microsoft would spare no expense to make it look as attractive as possible!

  9. Re:Everyone has a right to change their mind on Microsoft Says Kinect Left Open By Design · · Score: 1

    Please see my sig.

    Which, I agree, is pretty accurate. However, I hope you'll forgive me for saying that it's not the most impressive prescient act in the context of a thread *about* a Microsoft product.

  10. Re:Oh yeah on Microsoft Says Kinect Left Open By Design · · Score: 1

    You mean that's not why he's called "Ballmer"??

  11. Re:Seriously? Why not force registration on Wikipedia Could Block 67 Million Verizon Customers · · Score: 5, Funny

    This is the most calmly-punctuated 'Flamebait' I have ever seen.

  12. Re:Security Risk? on Google Preparing To Launch G-Town · · Score: 4, Informative

    Last time I was there (to scope it out for a potential scout event), I believe that all I had to show was a valid ID, such as a driver's license, to get through the main gate and onto the Moffet field campus.

  13. Re:Article dated 21st Dec 2005? on US Army Develops Tooth Cleaning Gum · · Score: 1

    It involves a dilation incident, for which I have discovered a truly marvelous proof which the margins of this comment are too narrow to contain.

  14. Re:How they managed to hide the sabotage on Court Returns Stolen Stargate MMO To Founder · · Score: 1

    Please ignore the man behind the curtain...

  15. Re:it's been said on LimeWire Lives Again · · Score: 1

    Never mind, my symbols seem to have been dropped.

  16. Re:it's been said on LimeWire Lives Again · · Score: 1

    You mean + != 2??

  17. Re:It's the Larry Ellison Parade on FBI Watching Oracle-SAP Trial · · Score: 1

    For me, it's all about the PPC vs. LBX-AC debate.

  18. 'Doping' on Not Transparent Aluminum, But Conductive Plastic · · Score: 1

    What?? We're doping plastic now? Just imagine what other innocent materials could also be sullied with 'performance-enhancing' substances!

  19. Re:F Pound WTF? on Microsoft Open Sources F# · · Score: 1

    Bah. Or perhaps leap of intuition.

  20. Re:F Pound WTF? on Microsoft Open Sources F# · · Score: 1

    Well, to be pedantic, since it's not actually a 'sharp' sign so much as a 'pound' sign, one could conceivably be forgiven for not making the implicit leap of logic (small as it would be). But that's if you were being pedantic, I suppose.

  21. Re:"Alice" one of the best learning languages toda on Land of Lisp · · Score: 1

    I think she's a friend of Bob's.

  22. Re: "specified location" on USB 'Dead Drops' · · Score: 1

    Perhaps geocaching then? I've not partaken myself, but it seems to be something along the lines of what you're talking about.

  23. Re:Clueless on Pay Or Else, News Site Threatens · · Score: 1

    My local-ish station (KQED) doesn't seem to brow-beat as such. They seem to rely on subtle guilting, combined with seductive descriptions of their pledge-gifts.

  24. Re:Obligatory... on Sharp To Quit Making Personal Computers · · Score: 1

    Sharp apparently has a hand in a relatively broad range of products, from computers to microwaves to their 'Sharp Solar' division (according to Wikipedia). It seems to be almost a given for large companies/conglomerates in Japan (and several other east Asian countries, e.g. LG in South Korea). My example isn't entirely accurate in that Sharp isn't actually a conglomerate, to my knowledge.

  25. Re:Steve Jobs has clout on Are Consumer Hard Drives Headed Into History? · · Score: 1

    We're not hating. We're just tired of getting a story every time Jobs farts.

    But it's better, possibly, than getting a story every time Ballmer farts...
