  1. Re:It's hard at the bleeding edge. on Production of Boeing 787 Dreamliner Delayed Again · · Score: 1

    Most of the people that visit Slashdot are definitely above average folk.

    Good Lord, humanity really is doomed.

  2. Re:Chrome 2 on Netscape Founder Backs New Browser · · Score: 3, Funny

    I imagine Marc Andreessen has enough change in his sofa cushions to keep a startup going for decades.

  3. Re:Oh how true ... on Domain Tasting "Officially Dead" Thanks To Cancellation Policy · · Score: 4, Funny

    One of the unfortunate aspects of networked computing is that the cost of antisocial behaviors is so small

    I disagree, you JACKASS!

  4. Re:Aion will Flop on On Transitioning To an Asian-Style MMO, Such As Aion · · Score: 1

    Sometimes I have 2 or 3 of hours to play, and grouping makes sense.

    Often I only have 1/2 an hour, and it would suck if the game mechanics didn't allow me to squeeze in 1 quick solo quest.

  5. Re:No on College Credits For Trolling the Web? · · Score: 2, Funny

    We could all benefit from arguing from the opponent's perspective once in a while anyway - it helps widen one's views.

    DOES NOT!!!

    Hey, you're right, I feel smarter already...

  6. Re:Interesting defense on Patent Trolls Target Small East Texas Companies · · Score: 2

    Proxies. Botnets. If you're motivated you can have as many IP addresses as you want.

    What provide the motivation? Getting a reaction from people like you. Somewhere, in his mom's basement, there's a guy with his cock out fwapping away to your post.

    I hope you're proud of yourself.

  7. Re:Where's the downside? on Novel Algae Fuel-Farming Method Gets Big Backing · · Score: 1

    Dump it back in the ocean?

    Were you watching it because you wanted to, or because your parents were trying to train a boy genius?

  9. Re:5 and 2 years old? on Tomorrow's Science Heroes? · · Score: 1

    If they like it that's great, but don't kid yourself that a 5 year old is learning any more then they would watching animals on Diego or Zob0omafoo.

    Ever watch Curious George? Seriously.

    George gets into trouble, and tries a bunch of different things to solve his problem. Whoever makes that show is trying to teach problem solving skills.

  11. Re:Keep reading... on Tomorrow's Science Heroes? · · Score: 1

    So relax and enjoy the little kids you have right now, and Ask Slashdot in a couple of years.

    At that age work on language, literacy, numeracy etc. That's the foundation, there's lots of time for the rest.

  12. 5 and 2 years old? on Tomorrow's Science Heroes? · · Score: 3, Insightful

    How about Elmo and Curious George?

    You've got years before they give a rat's ass about Cosmos or David Attenborough wildlife documentaries. It's OK, they're little kids.

  13. Re:Flat Earth on Enthusiasts Convene To Say No To SQL, Hash Out New DB Breed · · Score: 2, Funny

    You're not going to get many page hits with an attitude like that...

  14. Re:DOOOOOOPED! You Are So Wrong... on Madoff Sentenced To 150 Years · · Score: 1

    But I think it's obvious that the general public just doesn't care.

    Why should the general public care? I didn't lose any money, and I can't magically recover the money other people lost, so why am I supposed to get worked up?

    It's the same as any other stuff in the newspaper. A train blew up in Italy today. That's a shame, but I wasn't hurt, I don't know a soul in Italy, how much am I really supposed to care?

  15. Re:Anti-trust? on AV-Test Deems Windows Security Essentials "Very Good" · · Score: 1

    Incidentally, did you ever [i]try[/i] dealing with windows during the era of 3rd party tcp/ip stacks? It was unpleasant, to say the least.

    Of all the retarded problems that Win3.x had, Trumpet Winsock is pretty low on my list.

  16. Re:Fantastic on US Plans To Bulldoze 50 Shrinking Cities · · Score: 1

    All these razed swaths are going to do is become cheap development land that is cleared off at the tax payers expense.

    Is that worse then having blocks of derelict firetraps full of squatting crackheads?

    There's an ongoing cost to that, too.

    I believe that is "Jesus saves, Gretzky gets the rebound and SCORES!"

  18. Re:400M Silverlight installs on HTML 5 Takes Aim At Flash and Silverlight · · Score: 1

    Why would you have to worry in the first place?

    Golly, what could possibly go wrong for end users if a Microsoft technology gains the upper hand in the browser wars? I get all warm and fuzzy reminiscing about the golden days of IE supremacy after Netscape had been curb-stomped and before the alternatives gained a following.

  22. Re:Bad research on A Case Study of RMTs In EVE Online · · Score: 1

    As a salaried executive for a Fortune 10 company I simply don't have enough time to earn sufficient in game finds to enjoy the time I do have available.

    But you've got lots of time to post to Slashdot in the middle of the day?

  23. Re:My choices on Directory Service Implementation From Scratch? · · Score: 2, Informative

    SunDS, FDS and Novell eDirectory are all based on Netscapes DS,

    Uh, eDirectory is the current name for NDS, which came out with Netware 4 in 1993, before Netscape was even a company.

  24. desktop on a cart on Keeping a PC Personal At School? · · Score: 1

    If you make borrowing computers really annoying, fewer people will pester you to borrow a computer.
