  1. Re:Obvious troll is obvious on How Donald Trump Uses Twitter As a Weapon of Fear · · Score: 1

    That would be awesome. I can imagine it now. Halfway through the final campaign speech, Rick Astley pops out and does his thing.

  2. Re:Hello? The 21st Century Calling on US Blocks Intel From Selling Xeon Chips To Chinese Supercomputer Projects · · Score: 1

    Fabricating a CPU is a lot harder than finding out the secret plans. This isn't KFC's secret herbs and spices or Coke's secret formula.

  3. Re:Just give the option to turn it off... on Fake Engine Noise Is the Auto Industry's Dirty Little Secret · · Score: 1

    Great. "Ringtones" for cars. I'm not even a doomsday prepper, but I'll move to an underground bunker just to avoid a freeway of cars pumping out a mix of Pitbull, Justin Beiber and the bro-country flavor of the week

  4. Re:Goodbye TOR and the like on President Obama Backs Regulation of Broadband As a Utility · · Score: 1

    Congratulations, you understand Net Neutrality less that Ted Cruz and that's saying something.

  5. Wait a sec on The Great Robocoin Rip-off · · Score: 1

    Shouldn't the transaction to purchase a Bitcoin ATM be conducted in Bitcoin.

  6. I still am waiting... on The Correct Response To Photo Hack Victim-Blamers · · Score: 1

    For a worthwhile comment to a news story on the Internet and that includes this comment

  7. Re:Oblig on Will Microsoft IIS Overtake Apache? · · Score: 1

    Exactly, why do think I'm putting all my assets into rhinestone studded jumpsuits?

  8. Re:A problem with Canada? on Inside Piston-Powered Nuclear Fusion Company General Fusion · · Score: 2

    You can't let them in here. They'll see everything. They'll see the big board.

  9. Cycling is relatively safe on How Safe Is Cycling? · · Score: 2, Insightful

    It's all the cars that are dangerous

  10. I know the guys to ask on How To Develop Unmaintainable Software · · Score: 1

    The guys who wrote the software at my previous job were masters of it. I don't know all their secrets, but some of their finest work included: single character named global variables that were reused indiscriminately, code in stored in a database that was then evaluated inline that did things like changing variable values and declaring functions and other fun stuff, 500+ line functions that tried to do a little of everything, and liberal use of copy and paste.

  11. I'm going to find out the best language... on The Most WTF-y Programming Languages · · Score: 5, Funny

    by using the search term "l33t".

  12. Re:Officer dickhead is a dickhead. on Georgia Cop Issues 800 Tickets To Drivers Texting At Red Lights · · Score: 1

    If your foot is falling of the giant brake pedal and you are creeping into the intersection at idle and you can't do anything about it in the 5-10 seconds it takes to move forward enough to cause a dangerous situation, you don't need to have a driver license.

  13. Re:Leaked evidence chemical attack was false flag. on US and Israel Test Missile As Syria War Tensions Rise · · Score: 1

    You aren't thinking enough like a conspiracy theorist. These are either a carefully crafted code to their Illuminati brothers or the colonels have been removed from the earth and alien doppelgangers have been put in their place.

    See, it's all very obvious when you think it through.

  14. Re:Attention Cinephiles on HDMI 2.0 Officially Announced · · Score: 1

    Can we please stop with this tired old joke? It's never been funny.

    Nope. The jokes stop when fools quit falling for high-end cables. You have the right to throw away money on platinum cables with insulation made from unicorn horn that have been bathed in the tears of angels to break them in and I have the right to laugh at you.

  15. Re:Not for me... on Technologies Like Google's Self-Driving Car: Destroying Jobs? · · Score: 1

    Look out, you're taunting soon to be angry teamsters. That's not a good recipe for continued health.

  16. Re:Car salesmen on Death of the Car Salesman? BMW Makes AI App To Sell Electric Cars · · Score: 1

    What the heck!? When did Myspace get into the auto leasing business?

  17. Re:Don't Do The Dig ... on Canadian Couple Charged $5k For Finding 400-Year-Old Skeleton · · Score: 0

    they flail wildly with abso-fucking-lutely no direction. Politicians basically sit around and comment on shit of which they have no idea to appear busy.

    This is not limited politicians. This statement pretty much describes all of human history up to and including this reply.

    Stick with what works I always say.

    I'm founding Kickstopper.

  20. Re:Incompatible on NTSB Recommends Lower Drunk Driving Threshold Nationwide: 0.05 BAC · · Score: 1

    Sorry that the laws aren't convenient with your current situation. Please continue to drive under the influence. And, if you don't have a car, feel free to steal a car because of our oversight to provide you public transportation or an inexpensive cab.

  21. Re:Firebug is awesome on Firefox 21 Arrives · · Score: 2

    If your development involves working with cookies, Firebug totally beats the Chrome development tools. With Firebug, I can edit a cookie with a click, filter them, set breakpoints on the cookie so you can see when it is modified. Chrome pretty much lets me view them and delete them individually and that's it. Chrome development tools are still very useful, but I think Firebug totally outclasses it.

  22. Re:In my experience on FAA Pushed To Review Ban On Electronics · · Score: 1

    I like your new plan. I'll take all the crying kids you can put on an airplane if I can see a way too cocky guy having a cell phone conversation (probably via a bluetooth headset) get booted off a plane. Look we all understand you've been snapping necks and cashing checks after selling the Catalina Wine Mixer but we'll be where we are going in a couple hours. You can get with your brahs then.

  23. Re:I knew this article was gonna be BS on Can You Really Hear the Difference Between Lossless, Lossy Audio? · · Score: 1

    This is good to know. The next time I'll just tell my wife I was searching for the Neil Young audio conversion service "Pono" and I mistyped it.

  24. Re:Better question on Can You Really Hear the Difference Between Lossless, Lossy Audio? · · Score: 2

    Thanks for the pointer, I've had my electrons swimming upstream all along. I also rewired my usb mouse after I discovered that it was wired the wrong way around at the factory. You won't believe the warmth of my lefts, the mellowness of my rights, the dynamic ups and well rounded downs.

  25. If you want to defuse this argument on Can You Really Hear the Difference Between Lossless, Lossy Audio? · · Score: 1

    Charge less for the lossless format. Audiophiles use a common benchmarking system that is hidden in plain view. You look for the number after this character "$" and the larger that number is the better the component or recording or system will sound.
