    goddamn people are stupid.

  3. Re:Just let me know on Death Star Subwoofer · · Score: 1
    How big a helium balloon would it take to tow a 15" subwoofer behind your car? Since it's not in (or even pointing directly at...) your car, you could make it even LOUDER to compensate.

    Q: Would having the speaker embedded in a helium envalope have any effects other than distorting the focus?

    A reall geek would build in a gyroscopically stablilized platform so they could aim it at innocent bystanders.

  4. Daisy, Daisy, give me your answer do... on What is Mainframe Culture? · · Score: 1
    "I've never heared of a sound card on a mainframe."

    It's called a AM pocket radio and a very special stack of punch cards, you insensitive clod!

  6. Malware == $ub$cription model?!!! on Win2000 Still Performs on 8-year-old Hardware · · Score: 1

    Gee, maybe unscrupulous OS vendors are using the malware / patch dynamic to keep the great upgrade wheel spinning.

  7. as negative population growth proponent on How the ESRB Rates Games · · Score: 2, Funny

    Actually, I think American lip-service to prudery is good thing. Sex leads to more people, violence leads to less people. (Unless it's violent sex. )

  8. Re:ADM is also why your Coke sucks in the USA on Ethanol More Trouble Than It's Worth? · · Score: 2, Informative
    "Have a Coke anywhere else in the world and it will taste good. Coke in the USA is undrinkable unless you can buy Passover Coke (once a year in certain markets) or Mexican Coke (in a glass bottle, yum) [B]both of which have real sugar.[/B]"

    Thank you for the useful information, JH!


    Don't forget that there are many people that believe the switch to high-fructose corn sysrup in soft drinks played a major part in the explosion of obesity in the US. (They claim that HFT is much more easily absorbed by the body than refined sugar.)

  11. They're felons, they have no rights. on Death Penalty For Hackers? · · Score: 0, Flamebait
    "The author suggests commuting the idea of a death sentence into a lifetime of servitude doing viral cleanup."

    Nice to see America returning to the core beliefs it was founded upon, like religous intolerance and slavery.

    Just cut off their thumbs with bolt cutters. They can't do much to you after that! Stuipd zombies.

  13. Re:I thought I was immune too on Non-Technical Users Talk Malware · · Score: 1

    I agree. Captain DaFt says he's "being nice" to the company that abused him and his trust. He should "be nice" to his fellow slashdotters by warning them off from such a rude, obnoxious and dangerous company.

  14. Bill Gates touched my junk on Possible RSS Abuse in Longhorn · · Score: -1, Troll
    Bill Gates touched my standards liberally. he strapped me in to his Internet Explorer and he couldnt keep his offensive extensions off of me. he was performing many red flag GPL violations, i couldnt believe what the fuck was going on. i told Bill Gates the DOJ would not approve of a billionaire subverting an industry standard for free.

    can you believe it? Bill Gates did all this. he picked me off the street, strapped my arms and legs down in the Internet Explorer's browser window, and just wouldn't stop corrupting my headers.

    they definately were red flag patches. the goddamn referee he had in the back seat kept on raising up this red flag every time he touched my transport layer but did Bill Gates care? NO WAY! he just kept on doing it. I couldn't believe what the fuck was going on, indeed. I pleaded with Bill Gates but to no avail. I told him the market would not approve of such a wealthy man subverting an open standard like me (at the time I was 13) without at least compensating me for the trauma and the use of my marketshare as his own personal plaything.

    this got to him, worrying about his image. he continued to twiddle my format every release, all the while ignoring the referee's red flags. then he drove the longhorn to my house and ejected the seat i was in! it was amazing. but surprisingly, after I woke up the next morning, my bank account had $150k in it!!! Can you believe it?????

  16. Re:Kids these days... on Microsoft to Release AJAX Framework · · Score: 1
    If you're talking web browser platforms, then you're talking about the web browser, not the OS that it happens to be running on. My interpertation of cross platform web-wise would mean that it runs on multiple browsers, since the OS is theoretically irrelevant for web stuff. I will grant you that IE on Windows is not quite the same beast as IE on Mac.

    Just imagine saying "yeah, my web app's cross-platform, it runs on Firefox on Windows and Linux".

    I don't think that word means what you think it does.
