  1. Re:What if we sandbox major apps like browsers? on Future Trends of Malware · · Score: 1

    Good idea, but if you make the root and drunk sub-users mutally exclusive, I'd get nothing done!

  2. a blind spot you could drive a truk through... on On the Matter of Slashdot Story Selection · · Score: 1

    I like how Rob totally omits editing spelling & grammar in the story submissions from the job of "editur".

    Light behind the display?

    Back in the 50's people thought you'd ruin your sight by staring at those newfangled televisions in a dark room. There was a whole industry devoted to making TV lamps to place on top of your tv to provide some backlighting. That's where all those tacky light-up ceramic panthers came from.

  4. I'm sure this was warned of in Revelations: on Landing the Internship or Full-Time Job · · Score: 0, Offtopic
    McBlare: A Robotic Bagpipe Player

    Dear God no! That is wrong on so many levels. I'm pretty sure that's contra the Geneva convention and several human rights treaties.

    "It sounds like you're inquiring about one's "position","

    Maybe they're talking about "futbol".

  11. Like spearing eels in a bucket! on Pluto is Much Colder Than Expected · · Score: 1

    Never used a dictionary, eh?

  12. Re:But... on Accused Molester Hunted On Xbox Live · · Score: 1

    That leads to all sorts of amusing mental images of what such warning icons might look like. And how they could be abused.

  13. you probably liked HHGG in the cinema, too on Futurama to be Resurrected? · · Score: 1
    You'll love the big-budget live-action Hollywood blockbuster. In theaters 3/17/2008 - 3/18/2008!

    Wait, nobody ever likes that stuff.

  14. TV-YA, bud on Futurama to be Resurrected? · · Score: 1
    Bender is hardly an appropriate role model for a young girl.

    Are you some kind of robosexual?!!!

    "Apple uses Intel. Apple has always used Intel. PowerPC sucks."

  20. This is new?!!! on Physicists Close in on 'Superlens' · · Score: 1

    Bah! Royal Rife did this back in the 40's. Mainstream "sciennce" catches up with the cranks. Next you'll be trumpeting the use of resonant RF frequencies to destroy bacteria or using the interatomic forces in a crystal latice to finesse hydrogen atoms to fuse.

  21. MOD. PARENT. UP! on Bush Backed Spying On Americans · · Score: 0, Flamebait
    Technically, the New-aged GOP is exactly that, a "third party" that no one has ever seen in America before. One where ignorance, blatant disregard for everything the US stands for, and religious beliefs take precedence over everything else.

    BTW -- I used to consider myself a Republican. I don't know what to call myself now.



    Amen, brutha! I'm still a (mostly) republican. The Party left me behind when it abandoned its principles.

  22. My /. posting history will serve me well on Bush Backed Spying On Americans · · Score: 1

    When I use the Steve Dallas defense to counter charges that I bilked Citibank for one treellion dollars!

  23. or was it "Ubik"? on E-Paper On Cereal Boxes · · Score: 1

    Or you could trigger a psychotic break with reality when the delivery girl's fish pedant starts talking to you. You won't even need to massively abues aphetemines to get the effect.
