  1. lazy egghead... on 5th Edition of Dungeons & Dragons Announced · · Score: 1

    yet we're still waiting for the second part of Combinatorial Algorithms...

  2. I LIKE TO BREAK STUFF! on Could a Dirty Rag Take Out a $2 Billion Satellite? · · Score: 1

    If I had one of those, I'd use it to smash the world's smallest violin!

  3. word of the day : Siphonaptera on Researchers Develop Insect Powered Energy Source · · Score: 1
  4. God shmod, I want my monkeyman! on Researchers Develop Insect Powered Energy Source · · Score: 1

    Maybe mainstream Western Science will some day catch up with Viktor Grebennikov's work.

  5. RIP Troy McClure & Lionel Hutz on Researchers Create First Genetically Modified Monkeys · · Score: 2

    The best and brightest of a generation cut down by Zoloft.

  6. if buildings were built like programs... on Germans Increase Office Efficiency With "Cloud Ceiling" · · Score: 1

    I don't think I'd want to live in a house you[*] built, for six weeks, let alone two years.

    [*] assuming the typical slashdot population profile here, no personal slight intended.

  7. YOU ARE ALL EDUCATED STUPID! on Leap Second Coming In June, 2012 · · Score: 1

    wat, no luv for Gene Ray all up in this thread?!!! For shame.
    I never did understand what irradiating genetic material had to do with the natural timeframe of reality, but then, I'm not one of dem there big brains with a website on teh intarwebs.

  8. it's the Euros, stupid! on Germans Increase Office Efficiency With "Cloud Ceiling" · · Score: 1

    Even more productive Germans? My God...

    Somebody has to carry the Greeks.
    And Italians.
    And Spanish.
    And French.
    And..

    awwww, fuck it.

  9. Re:I approve! on Germans Increase Office Efficiency With "Cloud Ceiling" · · Score: 3, Insightful

    Keep workers happy == keep workers productive.

    you do know that could evaluate to false as well right?

    If they were American companies, they'd improve worker productivity every year for 30 years, pocket the money, reduce salaries in $$$ (while the government devalues the $$$$ themselves), and accuse the workers of being ingrates engaging in class warfare.


    Oh, and I would think techies would be upset and disturbed by the unfamiliar environment provided by this big blue room simulator. Does it go black at night?

  10. Atari rulz, Commode-door droolz! on Looking Back At the Commodore 64 · · Score: -1, Troll

    Commodore was always day late and a dollar short.
    1541 floppy drives, OMGWTFLOL, the pain!

    And it looked like a deformed loaf of bread.
    I will give you that the original PET case design was some prime 1970's post-StarTrek goodness.


    Oh, and Star Trek > Star Wars. It's a scientifically proven fact.

  11. yeah, but... on Avoiding Facial Recognition of the Future · · Score: 1

    do you want to go with the "America's Most Wanted" set or the "Seperated at Birth" ?
    fun, but in different ways, see...

  12. OWS : immantize the Gernsback continuum now! on One Million Web Pages Attacked By Lilupophilupop · · Score: 1
    Who the hell put William Gibson in charge of scripting reality these days?!!!

    godamn, it's real

    I'd like to send this letter to the Prussian consulate in Siam by aeromail. Am I too late for the 4:30 autogyro?

    time here.

  13. ooooh, too soon? on Inside a Last-Ditch Effort To Save the Space Shuttle · · Score: 2

    I prefer to think of it as " more bang for the buck ".

  14. watch out what you wish for... on Hello World On PS Vita, Thanks to Buffer Overflow · · Score: 1

    you could end up with the unholy abomination that is the appblaster (WARNING: worse than goatse)

  15. PWEW PWEW PWEW! on The Future of Battle Tech · · Score: 2

    Don't forget nuclear isomer powered GRASER rifles. They're powered by Americanium .
    Oh wait, that was swept under the rug as "junk science", right?

    Anyhow, the military seems to be the our only institution left that's doing any forward thinking and planning past the next quarter. I'm hoping for some neato civilian spin-offs.

  16. Re:Oh great on Russian Scientist Discovers Giant Arctic Methane Plumes · · Score: 1

    Jersey Shore, religious Luddites and plain old-fashioned greed were doing an adequate job of destroying civilization before we learned about this minor new problem.

  17. Re:Teabaggers == true dingbats on Time's Person of the Year Is "The Protester" · · Score: 1

    I prefer to use the term teabaggers because it perfectly underscores the tone-deaf cluenessness of these people. Any immaturity displayed is a unfortunate result of addressing them on their own level. Never wrestle with a pig or argue with an idiot and all that.

    And there's no reason I shouldn't share my personal opinion on some messageboard on teh intarwebs. It's not like I'm being promoted by a multi-billion dollar broadcast network where I routinely pass off opinion and outright falsehoods as fair and "balanced reporting" "in the public interest".

  18. Teabaggers == true Amerikuhns on Time's Person of the Year Is "The Protester" · · Score: -1, Troll

    Yeah, there was lots of Teabagger rallies in Auckland, Sydney, Hong Kong, Taipei, Tokyo, São Paulo, Paris, Madrid, Berlin, Hamburg, Leipzig and Yemen, Tunisia, Libya, Algeria, Iraq, the Israeli border areas, Jordan, Kuwait, Morocco, Oman, Saudi Arabia, Egypt, Syria, Bahrain .

    For some reason "occupy" and the "Arab Spring" spread to many countries. The Tea Party, not so much.

  19. oh, just get off my lawn... on UK Police Test 'Temporarily Blinding' LASER · · Score: 1

    Jane Badler is best Diana, junior.

  20. Re:Reflection? on UK Police Test 'Temporarily Blinding' LASER · · Score: 1

    "I'm sure someone will figure out a way to reflect (mirror?) back to the source."

    I guess this means mirrored sunglasses are going to make a comeback. Or did they already? I don't pay attention to fashion.

    Why, they'll be banned like the hoody!

    'ere, e's wearin' mirrors an' a hoody. Bloody terrorist is what 'e is!

    eh, it's a fair cop...

  21. damn American provincialism rears it's head again! on Facebook Launches Suicide-Prevention Effort · · Score: 1

    With almost one trillion people on the face of the planet, sucking up resources, it's not going to hurt to lose some.

    I suppose it's possible to call 0.7% of a trillion "almost a trillion".

    But, more likely, you just don't know how big a billion and a trillion are....

    Listen bub, there's 76 planets in the Galactic Confederacy, what makes you think he's talking about Earth?!!

  22. meta-Goodwined! on Facebook Launches Suicide-Prevention Effort · · Score: 1

    You know who else doesn't have a Facebook account?

    fine, here's one : Zuzu can't play piano worth shit. And she just keeps banging on those keys.

  24. I'll stand up and say it: on Site Offers History of Torrent Downloads By IP · · Score: 3, Insightful

    "It's a Wonderful Life" is a horrible movie.
    The only reason it's remembered is because it fell into the public domain.

    see you in Hell, modpoints!

  25. Re:Don't forget the ones being recovered from Spac on Two Lost Doctor Who Episodes Found · · Score: 1

    We demand you produce the one called McNeal.
