    Which one?

  2. Re:The "product" in question on Lawyer Loses It In Letter To Patent Office · · Score: 1

    And don't forget, this is the innovation that's going to finally give us our flying cars!

  3. So the consensus is still on How Would an Astronaut Falling Into a Black Hole Die? · · Score: 4, Funny

    try to avoid falling into a black hole

  4. So in the end, on Larry Ellison Buys His Own Hawaiian Island · · Score: 1

    Clooney does decide to sell his family's inheritance after all.

  5. Any 8 character password? on MD5crypt Password Scrambler Is No Longer Considered Safe · · Score: 5, Funny

    Looks like it's time to change my password to "password1".

  6. She wants TSA screeners to have more training. on TSA's mm-Wave Body Scanner Breaks Diabetic Teen's $10K Insulin Pump · · Score: 1

    Hell, it'd be nice if TSA screeners had some training.

  7. Was told, not consulted. on Zuckerberg Made Instagram Deal Alone · · Score: 5, Funny

    Pretty much how we all got Timeline.

  8. Re:*Stomps foot* on RIAA Wants To Scrap Anti-Piracy OPEN Act · · Score: 5, Insightful

    Apes contend that they evolved from humans.

  9. No, it's BRILLIANT! on Red Cross Debates If Virtual Killing Violates International Humanitarian Law · · Score: 1

    We'll make the sanctions virtual, too. We can put the UN in charge of them.

  10. Re:Watching too much TV on White House Responds to ET/UFO Petitions · · Score: 1

    You left out the part about how the current administration has obviously misplaced all the valuable aliens and alien artifacts that have been collected over the past several decades. (I don't recall whether Bush denied *he* had any, so they must have been accounted for during the previous administration.)

  11. Re:April 1st? on Discovery Brings Us One Step Closer To "Milking" Pigeons · · Score: 1

    I'm not drinking 6-month-old milk. I don't care where it came from.

  12. Re:Words, Not Communication on Wild Parrots Learning To Talk From Escaped Pet Birds · · Score: 1

    Parrots learn words but not language. Associating words with rewards through Pavlovian training is not communication. Clearly spoken gibberish is still gibberish.

    There's no better proof of that than the interwebs.

  13. Re:tag based system on Medical Billing Codes For Injury Via Turtle Among Thousands Created by New Law · · Score: 1

    Yes, you can use them in combination.

    You CAN be injured by a turtle, struck by lightening and suffer traumatic brain injury and a hernia. On a plane. On an experimental plane. On the runway.

    This would engender a number of codes and would be indicative of very, very bad karma. Or perhaps God really does have a sense of humor.

    I would not like them on a plane. I will not eat them on a train.
    I do not want them in my house. I can not feed them to a mouse.
    I do not like Green Eggs and Ham. I do not like them Sam-I am.

  14. Don't we already on NYT Working On 'Magic Mirror' For Bathroom Surfing · · Score: 1

    have the ability to stop taking our mobile computer of choice into the bathroom?

  15. Google's underground river will be available soon on Evidence Points To Huge Underground River Beneath Amazon · · Score: 2

    in Beta

  16. Re:No on Ask Slashdot: Using Code With an Expired Patent? · · Score: 1

    There cannot be valid duplicate patents on anything. See 35 U.S.C. 102.

    That would be helpful if patents had to be valid these days.

  17. Re:Kangaroo court on Lawsuit Claims LegalZoom Is Practicing Law Without a License · · Score: 1

    If I use MS Word to write my will, can I sue Microsoft?

  18. This requires a chip? on Cellphones Get Government Chips For Disaster Alert · · Score: 1

    Why can't Obama just get a twitter account?

  19. Re:Oblig Simpsons on Ugly Truth of Space Junk · · Score: 1

    I think the obvious solution for the LEO stuff is to accelerate global warming and expand the atmosphere to increase drag. Sure, it'll bring down the satellites we want to keep up there as well, but who will notice while we're slathered in SPF 10000 hunkered down in our underground bunkers learning to love eating fungi?

  20. Re:Send up a crew on Ugly Truth of Space Junk · · Score: 1

    What about paint chips?

    Paint chips are lousy workers. Even worse than young people.

  21. Re:Cant figure this one out. Quite inexplicable. on FBI Says Wire Fraud Scam Sending Millions To China · · Score: 2

    The way things are going, I figure it's the only way the Chinese can be sure they'll get any return on their investment.

  22. Yes, but on Maqetta: Open Source HTML5 Editor From IBM · · Score: 1

    is it genuine Microsoft Native HTML5?

  23. Re:FBI warning on Medieval Copy Protection · · Score: 5, Funny

    If you illegally copy "Twilight" you're cursed with a copy of "Twilight"

  24. My HOA is fining me for excessive coronal mass on Coronal Mass Ejection Hits Earth · · Score: 1

    And I just raked the lawn the day before.

  25. Re:False assumption on Sentence Spacing — 1 Space or 2? · · Score: 1

    Efficiency has nothing to do with it.

    The reason you add two spaces is because the additional space aids your eyes in determining individual sentences. Two spaces gives the eyes an additional visual cue, and thus is far easier to parse.

    Please explain why you used one space between all sentences in your post.

    It's a single run-on sentence with gratuitous punctuation.
