  1. Twain chose that word for a reason on War and Nookd — eBook Regex Gone Haywire · · Score: 4, Funny

    You do realize that you can actually post the word "nigga" on slashdot, right?

    apparently AKabral is one of many avatars of Ironyman.

    oh, and the word being referred to is nigger

  2. homework... on In America, 46% of People Hold a Creationist View of Human Origins · · Score: 4, Funny

    More telling, religions don't deal with formal proofs and require that you show your work.

  3. George Orwell couldn't even come close to today on War and Nookd — eBook Regex Gone Haywire · · Score: 4, Insightful

    "I accidentally Western Literature, is that bad?"

    It's not just intentional malice you need to look out for but also just pure distilled stupidity.

  4. Re:When you can't innovate on Canadian Copyright Board To Charge For Music At Weddings, Parades · · Score: 1

    ... then you create a legal scam to charge for everything else. Let's not congratulate this by being silent.

  5. pshaw! on Solar Geoengineering Could Lead To Whiter, Brighter Skies · · Score: 1

    As any fan of Charlie Sheen's[*] oeuvre is well aware, chemtrails are created by the ancient aliens. They're terraforming (sic) Earth to be more like Zeta Rediculi.
    This also explains reality teevee.


    [*]oh yeah, that's right, I went there.
    The alien disinformation smear campaign is just rutheless.

  6. alienz, really?!!! on Solar Geoengineering Could Lead To Whiter, Brighter Skies · · Score: 4, Funny

    Whatcouldpossiblygowrong?

    Seriously, have these guys never seen the matrix or highlander?

    So we need to avoid any potential sequels ?

  7. next up, I solve world peace... on After Trip to ISS, SpaceX's Dragon Capsule Returns Safely To Earth · · Score: 1

    That's why the Death Star was blown up TWICE

    HA! I've got you now!
    The Enterprise was blown up many more times than TWICE! Enterprise WINS. Your argument is invalid.

  8. they're The Man, now dawg! on After Trip to ISS, SpaceX's Dragon Capsule Returns Safely To Earth · · Score: 2

    Safety not guaranteed.
    They have only done this once before.

  9. HFCS's got what plants CRAVE on Soda Ban May Hit the Big Apple · · Score: 2

    Dude, you mean WATER, like in the toilet?!
    gross!

  10. people like you are what's wrong with the country on Soda Ban May Hit the Big Apple · · Score: 1

    whaddarya, some sort of web 2.0 brogrammer?!!

    Get a clue jr, and drink coffee, like a real man. Black, not loaded up with sugar and whipped cream like some effete poofta hipster . And larn ya some C. Or FORTRAN at least.

  11. google air (or, "it's drones, all the way down") on VA Governor Wants Military Drones For Police · · Score: 1

    I see a huge $ market for anti-surveillance drones . Automated swarming shouldn't be hard, right? Couple of one-shot shotguns and Bowb's your uncle. Those should be pretty small and cheap.

    And then we can sell $$ them anti-anti-surveillance drones. And then we can cash in $$$ on anti-anti-anti surveillance drones. Your imagination's the limit $$$$ ! (that's four dollar signs...)

  12. eats, shoots and leaves on Autralian Mining Companies Increasing Use of UAVs · · Score: 1

    Aerovel has a unit that stays up 48 hrs, then lands and refuels and takes back off totally anonymously.

    You mean it leaves without paying for the fuel?

    Must be the Autrailian speelling...

  13. Re:Finally! on Chemists Make Olympic Rings On a Molecular Scale · · Score: 1

    1968?
    1972?
    19 80?

    oh wait, 3 of those 4 were notable for non-sports reasons...

  14. LOL, WUT? on ISS Captures SpaceX Dragon Capsule · · Score: 1

    The saving grace is that the every North Koreans man woman and child don't owe $50000 in national debt.

    Quite right.
    They're just starving.

  15. dear god, the ADS, the ADS! on HP's Core WebOS Enyo Team Going To Google · · Score: 1

    really webos team, your damn browser doesn't have a useful ad-blocker, like every other goddamned civilized browser? (yeah, that's a cheap slam against IE, deal with it...)
    It's a real eye-opening nightmare when I have to resort to using a browser with no ad blocking. Probably why my parents don't use the web as much as we do.

    This is not acceptable.

  16. need some space Chinamen to build a space railroad on ISS Captures SpaceX Dragon Capsule · · Score: 1, Funny

    I, for one, welcome an era of interplanetary robber-barons as long as they build us a economical & functional space infrastructure.

  17. so BAD even YOUR MOM won't fall for this on When Antivirus Scammers Call the Wrong Guy · · Score: 3, Interesting

    These "Dave from Houston" fuckheads have called my house repeatedly. Unfortunately, I haven't been home to screw with them. Even my wife felt bad for these pitiful lamebrains when she told them none of our computers run Windows. And then these disorganized half-wits can't remember the FAILED on their previous calls, so they call back again.

  18. gravity's hambone on Designing the World's Tiniest Manned Suborbital Vehicle · · Score: 1

    Looks like these guys are going to drain the world market of imipolex g for their little project.

  19. good grief, it's a joke... on SpaceX's Falcon 9 Successfully Reaches Orbit · · Score: 1

    I woulda bought one, but they don't take paypal.

    BTW, that's the KSC online shop, not directly from SpaceX, WTF?

  20. Re:Irrefutable fact on Disentangling Facts From Fantasy In the World of Edison and Tesla · · Score: 1

    Rory Williams > Chuck Norris.

    hmmm, interesting play, that. I can't immediately determine it one way or another.
    He may very well be a discordain saint, like Mr Magoo and inspector Clouseau.

  21. like I'm going to heed Forbes on tech issues... on Disentangling Facts From Fantasy In the World of Edison and Tesla · · Score: 1

    also, Tesla didn't electrocute an elephant to scare little old grannies about the dangers of D.C. And any neigborhood dogs and cats he could get his slimy paws on. So yes, Edison was douchebag. A product of his time, but a world-class electrified douchebag nonetheless.

  22. off The Man! on HP To Cut 30,000 Jobs · · Score: 1

    ...200% more productive.

    All of which goes to executive compensation and maybe dividends for shareholders. The worker gets none of the benefit of added productivity.

    It's been that way for at least 30 years, where have you been?

  23. well, there's your problem, right there... on Ask Slashdot: Is Outsourcing Development a Good Idea? · · Score: 4, Insightful

    I used to work with a team of developers, but for reasons outside the scope of this question, my boss and I are the only ones left.

    I suspect this actually gets right to the heart of your problem.
    Just look at the other responses that basically say you boss has no respect for what you do, you should GTFO NOW.

  24. in soviet America... Yakov Smirnoff is funny on Star City and the Baikonur Cosmodrome · · Score: 1

    little bureaucracy?
    Wouldn't have thought I'd ever say that about Russia.
