  1. Re:Images? on Changing Planet Revealed In Atlas · · Score: 2, Informative

    Those pictures of the emergence of our giant, shadow puppet-shaped peninsular overlords at the mouth of the Yellow River aren't very impressive.

  2. Re:Solar Sails on The Flight of the Solar Sail · · Score: 2, Funny

    You could have a solar car, if you didn't mind it looking like a black pop-tart and other problems.

  3. The boyz in the 'hood on Apple to Recycle your iPod for Free · · Score: 2, Funny

    Will recycle it for free too. Just bop around a rough area with the ear-pods visible and someone may make you an offer to take it off your hands for no charge*. (* no charge for the iPod. Other charges may apply.)

  4. Re:The best of the series, I predict on Spielberg & Lucas Approve Indy 4 Script · · Score: 1

    Indiana Jones and the Barr Sinister.

  5. Re:Kill MS? on Cheap Solid State Computers Could Kill Microsoft · · Score: 1

    The plan is to get close enough to throw the computers down Microsoft's throat and choke it. If that fails, we fall back and try the Oxygen Destroyers.

  6. Re:Chuck E. Cheese ??? on Chuck E. Cheese 2.0 · · Score: 1

    One free token for every kid? That doesn't sound like much of a bounty. Next you'll be insisting on no disintegrations! I think I'll see if Pizza the Hutt will make a better offer.

  7. Re:Good luck Nolan on Chuck E. Cheese 2.0 · · Score: 1

    Those pretty legs are going to hook feet, especially in a beer-enhanced zone. (Gives the table more stability, but ..)

  8. Re:Cool to go to... once. on Chuck E. Cheese 2.0 · · Score: 1
    getting into the ball room was like inviting a bacterial infection.

    Resident Chuck Evil Cheese.

  9. Re:The best of the series, I predict on Spielberg & Lucas Approve Indy 4 Script · · Score: 3, Funny

    Adam Sandler.

  10. Re:Titanium is a pain to weld or melt in the house on Kazakhstan's Spaceship Junkyard · · Score: 1

    I wonder when they started substituting it for use in tin-foil hats?

  11. Re:In soviet russia, waste manages you! on Kazakhstan's Spaceship Junkyard · · Score: 1

    Boosters have to land somewhere. (The top picture renders in IE, but not Firefox.)

  12. Re:Dead cows... on Kazakhstan's Spaceship Junkyard · · Score: 1

    So that's why they couldn't find any pieces from the 1908 Tunguska blast. Industrious farmers sold it all before the 1930 expedition.

  13. Re:Sounds like... on Kazakhstan's Spaceship Junkyard · · Score: 1

    The titanium, if allowed to "rust" and mix with the soil, would make crops tasty to H. Beam Piper's Zarathustran Fuzzies. Yeek!

  14. If you smoke, the terrorists have already won on Terrorist Link to Copyright Piracy Alleged · · Score: 1
    The other item mentioned is bootleg cigarettes. That has to be a bigger money-maker than DVDs. So the obvious solution is to outlaw all cigarette smoking to destroy the market for the bootleg ones and stop terrorism! I'm sure that the US congress will get right to work on that.

    <sfx: crickets chirp>

  15. Re:Security? on HP Announces National Id System Built on .NET · · Score: 1

    Maybe not. If someone had enough access into the system, not only could they pretend to be you, but they could gimick it so that you couldn't be you. (At least not without a lot of PITA effort.)

  16. Re:Though you gotta wonder why the ominous name on BBC Launches Linux Powered Weather Format · · Score: 1

    Works here. Oh well, I'll do it the hard way.

  17. Re:Though you gotta wonder why the ominous name on BBC Launches Linux Powered Weather Format · · Score: 1

    Oops, Slashdot doesn't like compound URLs. This works.

  18. Re:Though you gotta wonder why the ominous name on BBC Launches Linux Powered Weather Format · · Score: 1

    The http://www.usenet-replayer.com/1/6/0/4/1117284061. 8.jpg">Blue Sign of Death of the Toronto Cthurch of Elronology is nice against the sky, but they could tune the colour a little.

  19. Commando Cody: Sky Marshal of the Universe on Revenge of the Sith Easter Eggs · · Score: 1

    Maybe you mean Commando Cody, a hero of Republic movie/tv serials. (Republic, get it?)

  20. Re:huh? on Revenge of the Sith Easter Eggs · · Score: 1

    "Good perogrammer? I've been doing .NET for 10 years..."

  21. How Ben really scared away the Sand People on Revenge of the Sith Easter Eggs · · Score: 1
    Going back to Episode IV, when Luke gets in-yer-faced and beat-up by sand people, Ben comes along and apparently does some scary call that makes them run away for a while.

    I figure what he really did was yell in some language the sand people understood: "Hey, you just beat up the son of Anakin Skywalker! If he dies, remember how pissed off he was about his mom?"

    That might not be a bluff. If Vader ever found out that he now had a dead son thanks to the sand people, he might get miffed. (Miffed as in "Let me tell you about my mother," and hosing the planet with the Death Star, Jabba the Hutt be damned.)

  22. Re:What's Wrong with New "Star Wars" Trilogy? on Revenge of the Sith Easter Eggs · · Score: 1
    If I were an evil Sith Lord, I'd have Sith organized blood drives. Coffee, tea, jelly doughnuts, you name it. Good PR, and there'd be incentives for people found with certain rare factors...

    Then I'd figure why I couldn't just breed a batch of them in a vat (maybe surrounded by Ymlessari-whatsits). I'd also work on a limited antibiotic that quickly kills them in a person, so I could slip it into Count Dorko's tea the next time he gives me some lip.

    I wonder if you can catch the Force from a dirty toilet seat?

  23. Re:Panic attack! on Device Drivers Filled with Flaws, Pose Risk · · Score: 1

    I said there was a field, I didn't say it had to contain valid data. Now you've gone and told everyone!

  24. Re:Injokes and references on Revenge of the Sith Easter Eggs · · Score: 1

    Umm, Anakin left C3PO behind while he went off to become a Jedi. C3PO must have been on the Lars farm for as long as dead-mom-skywalker. (Minor issue of who owned C3PO since Anakin was a slave when he built it, but Watto might have made a two-for-one deal.)

  25. Re:What's Wrong with New "Star Wars" Trilogy? on Revenge of the Sith Easter Eggs · · Score: 5, Funny

    Bah! If Captain Kirk had been there, he would have had Spock and McCoy whip him up a super-charged shot with the same stuff, and once his midideloreans hit 88, you'd see some serious shit!
