  1. Re:The EU justice system on New Blow for Microsoft in EU Row · · Score: 4, Funny

    If you were on trial, would you want the assumption of innocence?

    Yes, but in Microsoft's case you can make the assumption of guilty and be right.

  2. I would do it on Making and Breaking HDCP Handshakes · · Score: 3, Funny


    But I don't have room for the forty big-screen TVs.

  3. Let me be the first on Slashdot Bookmarks · · Score: 4, Funny


    to say that I'm glad dupe and spell check have been added.

  4. Dear Poseur nerd on ARM Offers First Clockless Processor Core · · Score: 2, Funny

    In English please? Thanks.

    Dear Poseur nerd;

    Your Slashdot post has been audited by a nerd committee and has been found to be lacking in both quality and substance. Normally this would only result in downward moderation. However, in this instance it grossly lacks nerdly appreciation of the subject matter presented, indicating that you are not a true nerd. If you were a true nerd, you would have instead made a post about where one of the said clockless processors might be obtained, or maybe indicate how it might be useful for an linux ogg player, which you have failed to do. You also probably have a girlfriend and have your own place.

    Therefore we hereby revoke your standing as a nerd, and must ask that you turn in your nerd card at the door as you leave the premises.

    Sincerely,

    the Slashdot phony nerd patroll

  6. It's obvious on Wikipedia Covers April Fool's Hoaxes · · Score: 5, Funny


    Chuck Norris rides horses, not ponies. He kicked slashdot so hard that it turned green.

  7. Re:I'd stay away from it... on Should We Be Afraid of TPM Chips? · · Score: 2, Funny

    for now, my fiance wants Windows so it might be Windows in the future...not sure

    Nope, it's not worth it. Stay with Linux, dump the girl.

  8. Re:the economics of it on Theaters Unhappy About Faster DVD Releases · · Score: 1

    Some movies, such as Star Trek, attact crowds that eat so much junk food that theaters pay 100% over nut

    Yes, except the tricoder I carry with me is where I stash all the goodies from home.

    Theatres screwed once again.

  9. Re:It's not Microsoft's fault for once on Anti-malware Vendors Stare Down Microsoft Threat · · Score: 1

    Hate to throw water on your hopes of a mass industry die-off, but how do you know that Vista is going to be any more secure than anything else they have ever produced?? Do you know something about Microsofts QA that we don't??

  10. Lazy eye?? on VR Treatment for Lazy Eye · · Score: 1

    ...you're part of the Windows Problem, I guess.

    Agreed. Isn't this like putting the pig on the lipstick??

  14. Re:Sigh... on GoDaddy.com Dumps Linux for Microsoft · · Score: 1

    Why would GoDaddy site security as their reason to change vendors?

    A big wad of cash thrown their way??

    Not that there is anything wrong with that...

  15. Re:Sad on IE7 Separated from Windows Explorer · · Score: 5, Funny

    Why can't Americans just stay together for the kids?

    Because this marriage produces a kid every other day that has three eyes or extra limbs??

  16. Well Duh on Dismantling the Myth of IT Being a Dead-End Career · · Score: 4, Funny


    It's because you can't get dates studying "IT". Say you are in medschool or a doctor and they're all over you and it.

    All three slashdotters who are married do not need to reply and tell me I'm wrong.

  17. Re:My wife gave me two thumbs up... on ATI's 1GB Video Card · · Score: 1

    Just don't mention that you need to buy a better air conditioner to the summer... she'll discover that one. ;)

    And when she does you're either going to ebay that card or be very lonely at night.

    These guys will go up and bring the rovers back before Mars colonists get around to building a museum.

  21. Re:Come on on UK Demands Sourcecode for Strike Fighters · · Score: 2, Funny

    FTA "...as [the planes] could effectively be "switched off" by the Americans without warning."

    Actually it's not that the British doesn't trust us or that there is a failsafe, it's that we would accidently turn off their planes.

    Personally, I don't think we should turn over the source code, because then the British would see that it runs on a Playstation 3.

  22. blurry video?? on Slashback: Real-ID, PriceRitePhoto, RIM · · Score: 4, Insightful

    For all we know it could just be a full-screen movie of a Windows XP install/boot that's running.

    For all we know, it could be a broadcast by UFOs.

  23. Re:The Collector in Me Cringes on Is the Physical CD Still A Viable Market? · · Score: 2, Interesting

    At th thought of not owning physical media with an album.

    I too want to have a physical object. As long as the RIAA is unable to offer DRM free alternatives, it will remain a very medium to me.

  24. Re:Touch Screen? on Seven-Ounce Linux 'Wrist PC' · · Score: 2, Funny

    So with a 2" touch screen, and roughly .5 sq inch finger tip, that gives me 16 touch recognition points on the screen? :-)

    Dufus, that's why it comes with the toothpick.

  25. Vive la France! on France To Force iTunes to Open to Other Players? · · Score: 5, Funny

    I vote to change our "freedom fries" to "french fries"!

    I also think that whole "fance surrenders" thing was silly too.
