  1. I fixed it. on Whatever Happened To the IPv4 Address Crisis? · · Score: 0

    I found a time machine that some ancient aliens left, and went back in time and did some housecleaning of IPV4 addresses to buy us another 5 years or so.

  2. Do them a favor on Ask Slashdot: How Best To Set Up a Parent's PC? · · Score: 0

    Get them a Mac mini.

  3. Re:Oh, the surprise. on Leaked: Obama's Rules For Assassinating American Citizens · · Score: 0

    Better make sure you get those parking tickets paid or they'll put you on the "list".

  4. Re:False Lead on America's Real Criminal Element: Lead · · Score: 0

    You're not supposed to drink it !!!

  5. Of course on Will Your Next iPhone Be Built By Robots? · · Score: 0

    However they will be Chinese robots, and 5% of them will commit suicide from the stress of being over-worked.

  6. What a country ! on Beer Is Cheaper In the US Than Anywhere Else In the World · · Score: 0

    Now I understand the true meaning of the song "God Bless America"

  7. This is great news on Richard Branson 'Determined To Start a Population On Mars' · · Score: 0

    I can think of a LOT of people that I would love to see on Mars. That way we could clean up our planet by creating another Botany Bay and sending some politicians and criminals to Mars.
    Hey, it worked for Australia...

  8. Re:I can only hope... on X11 Window System Turns 25 Years Old · · Score: 1

    It's like X10 only better... Or like the volume control that goes to 11.

  9. Re:YaLd on Bedrock Linux Combines Benefits of Other Linux Distros · · Score: 0

    I don't see the benefit in this distro. It's not ready for prime time yet, and others are.

    I think I'll come up with my own distro and see how many people I can get to download it as a joke.

  10. Re:Obligitory on Meat the Food of the Future · · Score: 0

    I say that when they have these car accidents that are caused by morons on cell phones, that we "get the scoops" like in "Soylent Green" and remove those individuals from the gene pool, plus help serve others by providing nutrition.

  11. Re:Handle has been pushed on RIM Considers Spinning Off Handset Business From Messaging · · Score: 0

    So, the 2 new division names would be "Dying" (smartphone) and "Dead" (tablet).
    You're bringing a knife to a gun fight in the tablet market bro.

  12. Re:Same was said with a lot of tech on Chuck Schumer Tells Apple and Google To "Curb Your Spy Planes" · · Score: 0

    And the fact that they are planning on "blurring out" the sensitive areas that could be targets for terrorists, it just makes it easier for them. Just map out the blurred out locations, then go there to see if they are worthwhile targets. Doesn't sound like much of a deterrent to me.

  13. Re:Just like their trains... on Chinese Firms Claims It Can Build World's Tallest Tower in 90 Days · · Score: 0

    This coming from the country that poisons baby formula?

  14. Re:Don't dismiss this on The $45 Windows Laptop · · Score: 0

    AND must have macular degeneration

  15. Re:More Rumors on Apple News From WWDC and iPhone 5 Rumors · · Score: 0

    In 2013 the iPhone 6 will be released, and in 2014 the iPhone 7.

    No, they're just going to call it "New iPhone", like they did with the iPad. That way they can keep using the same boxes when new products come out.

  16. Re:Opposite Direction of Where I Thought It Would on AT&T Expects Data-Only Phone Plans Within 2 Years · · Score: 0

    I make usually 1 quick call per day on mine. Most of it is for email for work (I'm in IT support).
    At most I use 75 to 100 minutes per month.

  17. Re:It's not the packaging, it's the seal on Worst Design Ever? Plastic Clamshell Packaging · · Score: 0

    I'd like to meet the guy who designed clamshell packages in a dark alley.

    To put something fragile like a CFL bulb in it is insane. I broke one trying to open the package. I took it back to the store and got a refund, but what if I cut myself on the glass of the CFL tube?

    It's a huge pain to have to get a sharp knife and carefully open those packages.

  18. Re:We have always been at war with Eastarabia! on Obama Order Sped Up Wave of Cyberattacks Against Iran · · Score: 1

    Actually, we used to be best buddies with Iran back when the Shah was in power. Now, not so much....

  19. Re:We are the borg ...... on "Brainput" Boosts Your Brain Power By Offloading Multitasking To a Computer · · Score: 1

    No, this is how the Matrix was born.

  20. Re:Of course. on TSA Defends Pat Down of 4-Year-Old Girl · · Score: 0

    I agree, the TSA has gone way too far patting down toddlers.
    Come on, let's just use common sense when looking at who you should pat down.

  21. Second mission on NASA Sends Lego Figures to Jupiter · · Score: 0

    After that, they're sending Lincoln Logs to Uranus.

    They said the same thing a few years ago, then capitulated.

  23. Re:If we send condolences by email... on Early UNIX Contributor Robert Morris Dead at 78 · · Score: 0

    Come on guys, this guy is like a hero. Let's give him some respect. Save the jokes for someone like Wiener who deserves it.

  24. Re:Interesting. on Among the Costs of War: $20B In Air Conditioning · · Score: 0

    THAT's the part I have a problem with. We didn't like it when the Soviet Union had their hands in the cookie jar there and then left with their tails between their legs. We're not doing any better. I don't have a problem with give soldiers A/C. They deserve a lot more than they get. It just seems to me that this is not a fight they are ever going to win.

  25. Re:Interesting. on Among the Costs of War: $20B In Air Conditioning · · Score: 0

    So, that makes it roughly $64.00 per US citizen.Yeah, that's money well spent.
