  1. Re:Sell out the Logic on Superman V: The Sordid Story · · Score: 1

    I dunno. Some women might like a guy that never has to come up for air.

  2. Re:AMD on G5 on The Funniest Places for Hardware Stickers? · · Score: 1

    I haven't done anything with my AMD Athlon XP sticker yet. There's a black/green rectangle at the bottom. Does it change colour depending on the temperature? (Like those '70s fishtank thermometer strips.) I doubt I'd stick it processor--taking the cover off, sticking my head under the desk with a flashlight just to check the heat seems awkward.

    I have a coin-op arcade 25 cents, push to reject sticker on my PC.

    Internet Channel Initiative site.
    CP80 is not a content filter solution, nor is it another .xxx-domain-name solution.

    CP80 is a non-profit Internet channel initiative.

    It uses Internet channels--similar to cable TV channels--to categorize content on the Web. There would be one channel for general-public content and other channels for other content, such as an adult Internet channel for pornography.

    Their use of the word channel and the block diagrams show that they haven't got a clue.

    The error message (Acceleration) said it was running Red Hat. No SCO Unix for him!

    He doesn't even have the generic stock picture of the mixed group of happy employees. Most tiny shops have one of those, especially the single person operations.

    Chicken and egg. Are you sure that it wasn't his brain that caused SCO to rot?

    Sure, after all, his company has such an impressive web site, if you like 100% Flash and no content except meaningless buzzwords.

    Darn, and I was wondering what up up down down left right left right B A start would do on her controller.

  10. Re:Handy with a screen-saver on Smart Mouse with E-Mail and IM Alerts · · Score: 1

    I have sounds for that. Personalized "ring-tones" attached to my contact list even. Usually good email plays a Klingon yellow alert, worthy email plays a Klingon red alert (and true warrior email blasts through my firewall, and slays my spam filters in personal combat...) Announcing email with mice would be dishonourable!

    You can dress up like Inspector Fenwick's daughter Nell if you like. About the only thing you can't do is marry the horse, yet.

    one where the lifestyle isn't that much different than your own?

    Except for that part where we peel our faces off and reveal ourselves to our god. Wait, forget I said that. Everything is fine.

  14. Re:What's Your Beef? on Dotless Top Level Domains? · · Score: 1
    This seems like a very reasonable price for a TLD. At least to me, it seems reasonable.

    Only if those TLDs are accessable to everyone else without requiring customized DNS settings or flakey plug-ins. Otherwise it's a massive rip-off of gullible fools. An alternative DNS root could be done with one box and BIND. Would that be worth $1000, $240/year?

  15. Re:A golden age of Fellows on Cray Co-Founder Joins Microsoft · · Score: 1

    They used to have a Clippit Fellow, until he went bad and they had to cut him off.

    I can imagine the PHB being convinced by Wally to use it--when talking on speakerphone.

  21. Only for cubes? on Cube Privacy Via Gibberish · · Score: 4, Insightful

    Could they make a portable one for people's cell phones? There are some calls that I'd rather not hear even half of. (As Ren and Stimpy would put it, "Repugnant, yet strangely compelling".)

    Like the way we were mocking IBM not that long ago? Yes, but don't let that bother you. By then they'll teenagers and you'll have other things to worry about.
