  1. Re:Meanwhile back at Queens Park on Diebold Audit Released, BlackBoxVoting.Org Shut Down · · Score: 1

    The evil reptilian kitten-eaters from another planet already have special beams to control that vote. :^P

  2. Re:use encrypted file w/ known & trusted publi on Anti-Spammers DDoSed Out Of Existence · · Score: 1

    But then they'd DDoS the central key repository at MIT, Noooo! :^P

  3. Re:SPEWS RIP? on Anti-Spammers DDoSed Out Of Existence · · Score: 1

    If SPEWS is blocking your mailbox, stop using it. If it's stopping your email from entering other people's mailboxes, that's their choice. Sucks to be you.

  4. Re:Where Did "Blocklist" Come From? on Anti-Spammers DDoSed Out Of Existence · · Score: 1

    The term is usually DNS Blocklist.

  5. Re:I RTFA and 'Kazaa' the magician is not mentione on RIAA Sues the Wrong Person · · Score: 1

    It's right between the fnords.

  6. Re:Magician at Kids' Parties? WTF? on RIAA Sues the Wrong Person · · Score: 3, Funny

    The Great Kazaa is a master magician -- he made the reference in the story disappear. His IPA is usually 127.0.0.1, tricky eh?

  7. Simple! on Geek Eye for the Average Guy · · Score: 5, Funny
    If the avarage family doesn't anything about the stuff or how to install it, they won't miss it if they don't have it.

    1. Install cardboard box with "Really Neat Box!" written on it.
    2. Pocket $15,000.
    3. ???
    4. Profit!

    (I think ??? involves running away very fast, but doesn't it always?)

  8. Re:Another reason to stop it. on ICANN Asks VeriSign To Stop DNS Wildcarding · · Score: 2, Insightful

    If hackers/spammers could compromise any TLD name server, wildcards or not, I think we could see a fair bit of disruption.

  9. A dup is okay... on ICANN Asks VeriSign To Stop DNS Wildcarding · · Score: 5, Funny
    After all, when Verisign pays no attention to ICANN's asking them to stop, ICANN will ask them again--maybe even notorized! That'll sure bring Verisign to their knees, oh yeah.

    Wake me up when it escalates to wrist-slapping.

  10. Re:Can you see the O'Reilly user manual? on Power Plant Fueled By Nut Shells · · Score: 1

    Hmm, my new .sig is actually relevent, who knew!

  11. Re:Nuts on Power Plant Fueled By Nut Shells · · Score: 1

    But has anyone checked the "greenhouse gas emissions" of the people eating all those nuts?

  12. Re:Disgusting coffee mug on BIND Strikes Back Against VeriSign's Site Finder · · Score: 1

    Heh, that LOTD is several weeks ago. I should change it before it turns funny colours.

  13. Re:It must be Space Aliens what done it! on BIND Strikes Back Against VeriSign's Site Finder · · Score: 1

    It's not just Dalton, it's a vast reptilian alien conspiracy involving the Queen and others. What, you thought that the Ontario Conservatives were just making this stuff up?

  14. Re:Internet standards humor alert on BIND Strikes Back Against VeriSign's Site Finder · · Score: 5, Funny

    "VeriSign did not respond requests for comment." Strange that requests for comment didn't end up at 64.94.110.11.

  15. It must be Space Aliens what done it! on BIND Strikes Back Against VeriSign's Site Finder · · Score: 1, Funny
    Verisign and SCO are buying mind-control Kool-Aid from Evil Reptilian Kitten-Eating Space-Aliens from Another Planet!

    Sure, it sounds like another tin-foil hat theory, but can anyone come up with another explaination which makes more sense for the "Lemming Look" of companies searching for the biggest cliff to jump off? (Yeah, I know, lemming suicides are a Disney myth. Too bad SCO and Verisign aren't.)

  16. Re:could NOT care less you idiot on BIND Strikes Back Against VeriSign's Site Finder · · Score: -1, Offtopic

    Unfortunetely, the (mis)use of "could care less" goes back at least a century or two. (I'd check exactly how long, but I could care less--but only if I really really work at caring less.)

  17. Re:Canada did not decide to enter the WWII on Canada Immune From RIAA? · · Score: 3, Informative

    Statute of Westminster in 1931. So Canada did have a choice.

  18. ADV: This is not legal spam! on Register.com Loses Class action Lawsuit · · Score: 1
    You are being sent this notice because you or someone who smells like you registered with register.com or affiliated with one of its affiliates. If you want to exclude yourself from the class, giving up any settlement and not being bound by its terms, you have to opt-out.

    Under the terms of the S.1618 Murky bill, this isn't spam because what we do is something other than spam.

    (Okay, it's not really spam, but that opt-out looked like all the other BS disclaimers that I get in my email.)

  19. Prior Art on Using GPS To Prevent Train Crashes In India · · Score: 1

    Okay, they had problems getting the guy on a horse with a red flag up to a fast enough speed, but those are just details. (Like the problem of replacing the horse/rider after receiving a "You don't got raaaiiiilllll! *splat*" emessage from in front. ["Maybe he was dictating?"]))

  20. Re:I hate to seem callous... on Using GPS To Prevent Train Crashes In India · · Score: 1
    Do the boulders have GPS too?

    Under IPv6, it'll have an IP address too. Then it'll be possible to Instant Message the bolder "H3Y D00D, M0V3!". This will fail because bolders rarely use IM.

  21. Re:Naughty! on Spammer Hangout's Membership Roster Left Exposed · · Score: 1

    All the spam I get knocked the 'ell out of my *splorf*.

  22. Re:Naughty! on Spammer Hangout's Membership Roster Left Exposed · · Score: 1

    Netchee or somebody who smells like him said "That which does not kill you makes you stronger." Let's make spammers really strong.

  23. Re:delete button a few times? on Spammer Hangout's Membership Roster Left Exposed · · Score: 1

    There's also the issue of false-positives when, after hitting delete dozens of times, you accidently whack that email that really is from an old friend or a job offer, or ...

  24. Naughty! on Spammer Hangout's Membership Roster Left Exposed · · Score: 5, Funny

    You know, snooping around a spammers site looking for open files is really fighting abuse with abuse and .. *sporf!* I can't keep typing this without busting a gut! Bwahahaha!

  25. Re:nmap scan on SCO Roundup · · Score: 1

    Narf! Last time I checked, their web server was changed to report that it was running Apache on UNIX instead of Linux as previously. Any bets that they just changed the string that Apache returns rather than actually shifting over to their own OS?
