  1. Re:SCREW EVERYONE ELSE on Supreme Court: Affordable Care Act Is Constitutional · · Score: 1

    American politics have nothing to do with reality or decisions based on issues. Every issue is automatically split into two divergent sides and then a simplified message is crafted and sold to the people. Even issues that shouldn't be political are politicized in this manner. This has been going on for so long most people simply put their faith in one political party and then think anything their party recommends is fine with them.

  2. Re:Was Jesus riding Nessie? on Fundamentalist Schools Using "Nessie" To Disprove Evolution · · Score: 1

    Now this is a religion I can get behind. Now, do we call this Jesus/Nessie combo Jessie or Nessus?

  3. I think I know how this went down on Google To Pay $0 To Oracle In Copyright Case · · Score: 5, Funny

    Google: I'm going to write a figure on this piece of paper. It's not quite as large as the last one, but I think you'll find it fair.
    Oracle's Lawyers: I think we should take it.

  4. Re:Were they bored? on 12-Core ARM Cluster Beats Intel Atom, AMD Fusion · · Score: 1

    Actually, I bet they did it to attract women.

  5. Re:I'm confused on Apple News From WWDC and iPhone 5 Rumors · · Score: 1

    So what happens when they issue a incremental upgrade to the "new iPhone"? Is it now the "new iPhone" and the previous one the "old iPhone?" Maybe they need to just to keep add the word "new" to the front for later versions. Then, you can count the number of times the word "new" appears in the product title to determine the version number.

  6. Re:I blame Apple on Worst Design Ever? Plastic Clamshell Packaging · · Score: 2

    It can't be Apple's fault. The plastic clamshell is only difficult to open. If Apple designed it is wouldn't be able to be opened by the end-user. Apple would require you to visit a nearby Apple store, pay a service charge and have a "genius" retrieve the contents.

  7. So how much did we pay.. on US State Department Hacks Al-Qaeda Websites In Yemen · · Score: 1

    to rickroll an Al-Qaeda group? Forget it, it's worth it.

  8. Re:i volunteer to live with no women? on Russia To Establish Bases On the Moon · · Score: 1

    Don't worry. We'll dress it up like your mom's basement. You won't know the difference. The only real trade off will be cosmic rays instead of radon.

  9. Alright, on 'Inexact' Chips Save Power By Fudging the Math · · Score: 2

    From here on out, I'm requiring my chips to show their work. And, it better not look the same as the work that that northbridge chip you are sitting next to.

  10. Re:Most powerful? on Member Claims Anonymous "Might Well Be the Most Powerful Organization On Earth" · · Score: 5, Funny

    Well, not counting those guys, because getting beheaded is the ultimate DOS attack.

  11. Good luck with all that on Wozniak Calls For Open Apple · · Score: 1

    This will never happen. They've built their current empire by tightening control. They are not going to turn a 180..

  12. I don't care what my TV case is made of.. on Foxconn CEO Fuels iTV Rumors · · Score: 2

    This is getting dangerously close to the super high end crap they sell audiophiles.

  13. Re:Good Luck on How Would Driver-less Cars Change Motoring? · · Score: 2

    Why does it have to be an all or nothing proposition? Automated cars could exist on the road with human drivers.

  14. Re:Going the speed limit is a hazard on How Would Driver-less Cars Change Motoring? · · Score: 1

    I'm with you on this, but it's you morons cruising down the road at a mere 120. I don't let the speedometer drop below 160 and I need 2 lanes minimum to handle safely at that speed. All of you one lane driving 120km/h freaks are the real problem.

  15. Heading to a new Dark Age on Only 22% of California 8th Graders Pass National Science Test · · Score: 1

    I think we are headed to a new Dark Ages, much like Europe after the fall of the Roman Empire. Instead of being caused by strictly by a hardline Catholic church, this one will be a combination of religious and political division, the insatiable desire to consume media with no redeeming value and the idolization of fame. You only have to look to the Kardashians, Paris Hilton, Lindsey Lohan and anyone on the Jersey Shore.

    Then again, maybe I'm just getting old.

  16. Re:Quick! on Only 22% of California 8th Graders Pass National Science Test · · Score: 1

    They certainly aren't helping.

  17. We are so far down the moron path on The Rise of Chemophobia In the News · · Score: 1

    It's probably better just to accept it at this point. We believe marketing over scientifically proven facts by an overwhelming margin. I'm just going to enjoy my gentleman's latte with happy ending and the latest episode of "Ow! my balls"

    Enough of this, I need to go water my lawn with Brawndo. It's got what plants crave.

  18. Re:Speaking as a hipster on Google Patents Using iPhones To Kill 'Free Bird' · · Score: 1

    That's not the way most human beings and especially hipster work. They are never content to not disturb anyone. If no one is noticing that you are living a "kick ass" life, is it really that "kick ass."

  19. Advice for app developers on BlackBerry 10 Unveiled · · Score: 1

    If you get an incentive check, do not wait to cash it.

  20. Bad plan. on German Authorities Find Al Qaeda Plans Disguised In Porn · · Score: 1

    Aren't you suppose to hide something in a place they would never look? What's next, trying to smuggle their plans in a box labeled donuts?

    I don't want to give Al Qaeda tips but embed that stuff on slide 5 of a powerpoint presentation named Corporate Synergistics or Business Process Best Practices.

  21. I've got nothing to add but, on Wind Turbine Extracts Water From Air · · Score: 1

    I'm just trying to thin out some of the Dune and Star Wars comments.

  22. Let me be the first to say, on Gold Nanoparticles Help Red Blood Cells Deliver Drugs · · Score: 2

    Thank you to the tireless researcher striving to make this a better world. Your efforts have been noted, Dr. Lil Jon. I knew that grill was for health reasons.

  23. Re:More Linux fragmentation... on MATE Desktop 1.2 Released · · Score: 5, Insightful

    Fragmentation is not a bad thing. Think of it as natural selection in the open source software world. This is the mutation that may result in a new or different product.

  24. Won't someone think of the middle man on Paramount Claims Louis CK "Didn't Monetize" · · Score: 1

    These poor entertainment executives have multiple sports cars and trophy wives that aren't going to fund themselves.

  25. Re:Excel 1040 on Ask Slashdot: Open Source Tax Software? · · Score: 2

    It's ok to use Comic-sans if you center align all the elements on the page. It's a case of two wrongs making a right.
