  1. That's not a Chinese Wikipedia. on Self-Censoring 'Chinese Wikipedia' Launched · · Score: 5, Funny

    That's a Chinese Fox News.

  3. Re:Huh? on Cloak of Invisibility Coming Soon · · Score: 1

    No, no... that's avoision.

  4. Will Ted McGinley be in it? on 'Revenge of the Nerds' Remake in the Works · · Score: 1

    I believe that's guaranteed box office gold.

  5. Re:The news they don't want you to know: on World's Largest Pyramid Discovered in Bosnia? · · Score: -1, Troll

    That gap is a valuable tool, for someone who spends her life fellating needle-dicked neo-cons.

  6. a whole new category of profitable perversion... on Privacy Threat in New RFID Travel Cards? · · Score: 1

    identity frottaging.

  7. Re:Surplus Stores on Tech on the Cheap? · · Score: 1

    Universities, too.

  8. Re:Its not eye candy if it helps you work better. on Thinking About Desktop Eyecandy · · Score: 1

    "The author then makes the claim that nice interfaces rob the computer of processing power. I disagree."

    Yeah, no kidding. Most of my resources are eaten up by this thing called "system idle processes" and I just can't seem to disable it. ;-)

  9. Re:Metrics on The State of Online Advertising · · Score: 5, Insightful

    That's hardly the parent poster's concern, now is it? Sucks for the ad biz when us "eyeballs" outsmart them.

  10. Re:Amazing stats on Hornet Pro PC Reviewed · · Score: 1

    I agree that the article was lacking in gory details, but the mention of a socket 939 motherboard tends to indicate the author was running an AMD processor. ;-)

  11. This just in: on U.S. Army Robots Break Asimov's First Law · · Score: 1

    AG Gonzales declares Asimov's Laws "quaint."

  12. Re:Much more than cocaine on Cocaine Biosensor · · Score: 1

    it's not THAT hard to get. Any hospital or clinic where sinus surgeries are performed will have a considerable quantity on hand.

  13. Re:PS2 Controller Suit... on PS2 Controller Suit Goes Badly For Sony · · Score: 1

    Heh - Nintendo... Smell the Glove.

  14. Re:Scientific progress is amazing on Nanotech and the Blind · · Score: 1

    {ahem} Tim Russert.

  16. Re:Costly and dangerous on The Most Dangerous Bacteria · · Score: 2, Informative

    Merck deserves to get hit hard. Not for making dangerous drugs (cox-2 inhibitors are still quite a bit safer than nsaids for the vast majority of patients), but for actively suppressing evidence of the drugs' dangers in clinical trials. Had they been forthright during trials, the drug would have been approved for marketing with a black box warning, and Merck would have made less immediate profit from it. But Merck decided to go the criminal route, and I for one am quite happy to see them forced to pay up for their hubris.

  17. An excellent idea! on Let Joe Average Help You Code · · Score: 2, Funny

    Maybe we should let Joe Average try his hand at other things, too, like air traffic control or surgery. Hell, we already let him pretend to be president.

  18. Re:Interesting... on New York Times sues DoD over Domestic Spying · · Score: 1

    Interesting... that the bushbot response to Dear Leader's criminal bypass of FISA is to scream "them durned libruls did it, too!" Oh, and BTW - that talking point you've borrowed from Rush Limbaugh is (surprise, surprise) incorrect.

  19. Re:Contact Microsoft on Linux vs. Windows for Schools? · · Score: 1

    Don't read too much into the word "village" - it does not necessarily place the OP in a developing nation. "Villages" are also local governmental entities throughout Wisconsin, for example.

  20. not for nuthin', but on Blackberry Injunction Postponed · · Score: 1

    Blue Thunder would kick Airwolf's ass. ;-)

  21. Re:Should it ever be on the lap anyway? on Lapinator and Lapinator Plus, a Closer Look · · Score: 2, Funny

    If lap undulation makes proper use of your computer troublesome, I humbly suggest you stick with pole dancing.

  22. Re:Turn the table on HP Developing Hybrid Tablet PC / Coffee Table · · Score: 1

    Tablet PCs (and most LCD monitors) have nifty screen rotation features that I'm sure could be incorporated, though obviously rotation only provides a right-side-up picture from one orientation at a time.

  23. Cruel and Unusual... on CIA Secretly Reclassifying Documents · · Score: 3, Funny

    10 years of pleasuring the Queen... GAK!

  24. Re:DDR2? on A First Look at AMD's M2 Platform · · Score: 1

    Feh. Mine goes up to GDDR11. ;-)

  25. Re:Stirling engines on Segway Inventor Turns To Environment · · Score: 3, Funny

    Seals, eh? I would've suspected aardvarks. Damned nosy bastards.
