  1. Re:my star trigger test was successful on Solar Eruption To Reach Earth Soon · · Score: 1

    I told Chmee to plot a route so the orbits wouldn't intersect. Now he's triggered the automated defenses and burned off all his fur.

  2. Re:5 Passengers? on Aiming For a Commercially Available Submersible · · Score: 2

    Watch list? How quaint.

    The NSA has decided that profiling isn't PC, so they just watch everybody now. More fair that way, don'tcha know.

  3. ground control calling Major Tom on DIY Space Suit Testing · · Score: 0

    There really are easier ways to go about suffocating yourself.

  7. Re:Still can't handle proper units? on Magellan II's Adaptive Optics Top Hubble's Resolution · · Score: 3, Funny

    actually, you're using the old, pre-normalization units. I has been scientifically proven that all units are convertible to Libraries of Congress.

    1 Library of Congress = 25 Petabytes (data)
    1 Library of Congress = 65,000,000 kilograms (mass)
    1 Library of Congress = 30,000,000 m^3 (volume)
    1 Library of Congress = 9,000,000 m of shelves (length)
    1 Library of Congress = 53,700,000,000 BTU when burnt (energy)
    1 Library of Congress = 11e10 seconds to read (time)
    1 Library of Congress = 1,137 employees.

    This is /. , why isn't there some hipster maker with a kickstartr to build a arduinio-driven robot recycling bin that can sort our plastics for us?!!! It should use a dirigible to go door-to-door soliciting refuse and dispensing bitcoins, which, at the customer's option can be donated to the EFF.

  12. heh heh, you said "invasion of privacy", heh heh on San Francisco Fire Chief Bans Helmet-Mounted Cameras For Firefighters · · Score: 1

    I really don't want a camera strapped to my fireman's helmet, thank you very much. What?

    fine.

    How about the police officer's?
    Or the Indian Chief's "bonnet"?

    Having a hard time coming up with a suitable double entendre for the Navy guy, so I'll just throw in the phrase "able bodied seaman" for no good reason.

    Does this movie even mention Lisa? Or the Apple Lisa?

    First Kutchner punks Charlie Sheen, now this. fookin' hipsters with their whitewash hipster movie can fook right off.

  17. oh Woz, you crazy PRANKSTER! on Early Apple Employees Talk Memories of Steve Jobs, Thoughts On New Movie · · Score: 3, Funny

    Woz gave St Jobs pancreatic cancer by spiking his yoghurt with polonium.[*]


    [*] Payback for the breakout ripoff of 1976. Just you wait, it'll come out after Woz is dead. OK, I'm wrong about the polonium being the mechanism, that's just not correct. Revenge is a dish best served cold.

  19. YOU THINK I MAEK JOKE: on The Grasshopper Can Fly Sideways · · Score: 1

    Well, it's certainly cheaper than having some internet billionaire salvage your rocket parts off the sea floor for you.

    Of course with precedents like Howard Hughes, the Glomar Explorer and project Jennifer and Robert Ballard finding the Titanic while secretly researching the Scorpion & Thresher wrecks , it leads one to wonder what internet billionaire Jeff Bezos is really up to.

    Given the Joshua Norton I was the only government recognized by King Kamehameha, all we have to do is reintroduce the Hawaiian royal lineage, and we're on the road to reinstating the Emperorship of the United States to some random crazy person.
    Arguably a more sensible form of government that what we currently have.
    Given our shenanigans with other banana errr pinapple? republics, I would not entirely rule out such a possibility in the coming century.

  22. they gotta learn from their own mistakes... on Egyptian Security Forces Storm Pro-Morsi Camps Leaving Nearly 100 Dead · · Score: 2, Insightful

    oh yeah... we're all for "spreading Democracy", but then get our panties in a bunch when they democratically elect "DEATH TO THE GREAT SATAN".

    This is a military coup against a legitimately elected government.
    The fact that 'merkins are askeered of the Muslim Brotherhood is beside the point.
