    Moscow -- via Branson, MO

  2. I see a bad moon rising! on Microsoft Loses Key Engineer to Google · · Score: 1
    Important high-level software architechts defecting is an obvious sign of the beginning of the end for Microsoft.


    Unfortunately, this man brings with him the taint Microsoft. This is where google starts turning evil. And inept.

  3. Secret weapons of the USAAF! on GlobalFlyer Completes Record-Breaking Flight · · Score: 1
    it's a 12,000 foot runway that they used to train B52 bomber's during WW2.

    I don't think so.

  4. Do you know my family?!!! on Pay-Per-View Downloads of TV Shows? · · Score: 1
    " Most stuff on TV is pure crap that people will sit and watch rather than look at, and talk to, their partner/kids/grandma"

    Hey now, don't knock it! Many people would pay good money for a socially acceptable way to avoid awkward conversations with their family members!

  5. Re:comcast hd-dvr not as bad as expected on TiVo vs Microsoft vs HDTV Cable · · Score: 1
    "Last Sunday I set it to record the Oscars, and then I fast forwarded through at super speed and just watched the good parts. That was very handy."

    Interesting. So because you had a DVR, you watched (part of) something that you wouldn't invest the time to watch the whole thing in realtime. I bet advertisers would love to know that!

  6. I was promised blipverts! Where are the blipverts? on TiVo vs Microsoft vs HDTV Cable · · Score: 1

    I want high-speed download of commercials to the tivo for my later viewing pleasure! (Unfortunately, there seem to be some negative side-effects for real-time viewers.)

  8. plz remember the natural order, kthx bye! on Microsoft Robots to Watch Kids · · Score: 1
    Procreation first, mindless slavelike drudgery to obtain unneccessary luxuries second.

    A family can easily get by on one salary. If they are willing to limit themselves to a 1950's quality of life.

  9. Re:To answer the parent and grandparent on More On Save Enterprise Donations · · Score: 1

    They should've given the $3M to these guys. (Or, better yet, to these guys!) I bet they could stretch that money a lot farther!

  10. Re:This is easy to hack... on Face Recognition Comes to Cameraphones · · Score: 1

    That's not quite the same as a conversation starter, now is it?

  11. You're honor, my opponent is an idiot. on MGM v. Grokster: Here's Why P2P is Valuable · · Score: 2, Interesting
    "First, the United States' description of the Internet's design is wrong. P2P networks are not new developments in network design, but rather the design on which the Internet itself is based."

    BURN!
    Fucking awsome!

  12. Where do I send my check? on More On Save Enterprise Donations · · Score: 3, Funny

    Where do I donate to KILL OFF Enterprise?!!!!

    Higher prices than "your immortal soul"?!!!! That's ridiculous!


    Oh, wait, there's legitmate places to download music online from?!!!


    Primitive peoples often think that you're stealing their soul when you photograph them.

    I make no guarentee of this post's relevancy to anything.

    I want a tourette's syndrome ringtone!

  15. BZZZZZZZT! BZZZZZZZZT! BZZZZZZZZT! BZZZZZZZZZT! on Short History of Cellphone Ringtones · · Score: 2, Informative

    Leaving your phone on a hard desk when set to vibrate's pretty damn annoying. The whole desktop acts as an amplifier, and if it rings long enough, it goes "thump" when it falls off the edge onto the floor.

  16. adding insult to injury... on MP3 Download Prices to Rise? · · Score: 2
    "whenever it's about to expire, various Vested Intrests will simply lobby their CongressCritter to have the Act extended."

  17. Sea monkies only count 1/2 for census purposes! on 100,000 More Social Security Numbers Exposed · · Score: 1

    Igor you imbicile! That has only half the base pairs we need! That's not good enough!

  18. Re:Fingerprints/retnal scan on 100,000 More Social Security Numbers Exposed · · Score: 1
    A good closeup photo and an inkjet printer that shoots gelatin, and I've got a good copy of your retinal pattern. Works adequately for fingerprints too!

    DNA's still a little hard to fake -- so far.

  19. Re:But will this matter... on 100,000 More Social Security Numbers Exposed · · Score: 1

    Then how come it's titled GW Bush's "How to eat seniors" plan?!!!

    With guardians like this, pretty soon the whole XXX-XX-XXXX range will be p0wn3d!

  21. The Wrong Princess! on Four-Story Pixellated Mario Mural · · Score: 1
    Do you even know what they're talking about?

    Damn, "The WRONG Princess" just sounds like transgender slashfiction! ugh.

  22. Re:Already Slashdotted on DRM for 1'3" of Silence · · Score: 1

    I downloaded this, but the file was truncated at 1'2".
