  1. Re:All you negative people... on Linux-Powered Christmas Display Puts Rudolph To Shame · · Score: 2

    I knew someone who developed an allergy or celiac disease (can't remember which) in her 20s. The solution for her was just not to eat wheat, her life didn't seem impacted all that much otherwise. Hopefully all the money is going towards research and not his kids!

    Anyways, as an aside, she had a reaction to HAM. They put wheat in EVERYTHING these days, geez ;) HAM people. We're all eating random frankenfoods.

  2. Lol on Spectrum Fragmentation Means Pricier Mobile Networking · · Score: 2

    You guys in the U.S. don't know how lucky you have it. In Canada we get ass-reamed. Even Virgin Mobile Canada charges $35/month just for 500 megabytes of data.. my understanding is that in the U.S. that would get you heaps of data and a few hundred minutes. You might have it bad, but here in Canada we have it far, far worse!

  3. Re:Trolling? on Facebook Launches Suicide-Prevention Effort · · Score: 1

    Ugh. I just looked it up on Wikipedia. Apparently both trawling and trolling are different forms of fishing. Fishers might be good at fishing but they're shit for coming up with non-homophonic words that are nearly, but not quite, identical, apparently.

  4. Re:Trolling? on Facebook Launches Suicide-Prevention Effort · · Score: 1

    Troll is pronounced the same as trawl. I always thought I was trolling for fish when I was a kid, when all that time I was trawling. I'm pretty sure troll is just a bastardization of the word trawl, since the purpose of it is to catch responses and emotions from other people.

    You might get loads of photos in your feed. I do as well. But do you get photo albums in the same number as you used to, say, one year ago?

  6. Re:I'd have thought ... on Facebook Launches Suicide-Prevention Effort · · Score: 2

    Yeah... has anyone noticed that people have STOPPED POSTING PHOTO ALBUMS on Facebook? What's up with that? I've stopped too. I think Facebook is on the outs if their most popular feature behind wall posts has almost completely disappeared ( at least from my friends list).

  7. Oh good on Facebook Launches Suicide-Prevention Effort · · Score: 1

    I can't wait until completely sane people get formed ("Form 1") over this. Fantastic!

  8. Re:Wow on Forget an Essay; Earn a Scholarship With a Tweet · · Score: 1

    ungrateful, even. Also, the entries so far are really, really bad. And the requisite white winner is still unrepresented - most entries are black people. KFC will not let that fly. Bring in the cute white chicks with $2,000 clothes.

    They'll find a way. Rich people win almost all scholarships, even flaky ones like this.

  10. Great job! on 17-Year-Old Wins $100K For Creating Cancer Killing Nanoparticle · · Score: 1

    Too bad your last grant proposal fell through because you forgot form 27B-6. You're a drain on this University. You're fired, get out!

  11. Ya, but here's the question on 17-Year-Old Wins $100K For Creating Cancer Killing Nanoparticle · · Score: 0

    How many journal articles has she published? She has to get on that shit pronto, 17 is almost too late to start racking up authorships and co-authorships! Chop chop, you lazy girl. You won't get tenure the way you're going!

  12. Java gets such a hard time on Browser History Sniffing Is Back · · Score: 1

    Java is considered such a security hole, and yet they sorted out this problem years ago. Java never could catch a break, geez.

  13. Maintenance took down Chernobyl on Can Maintenance Make Data Centers Less Reliable? · · Score: 3, Informative

    That being said, it was because their procedures were shit, not because they were doing maintenance.

  14. Ask Iran on $50,000 To Solve the Most Complicated Puzzle Ever · · Score: 1

    They figured out just how much America and Britain were fucking them over by "reverse-engineering" all of the incriminating evidence that the Americans furiously shredded before getting the boot from the country they were occupying.

  15. Re:Queue the negative comments on Feds Take USAjobs.gov Back From Monster, Performance Tanks · · Score: 1

    You're bitching that their jobs aren't hard? Thanks for making my point for me! It's like I said, the smartest people work in the government. What kind of idiot wants to be worked to the bone and then tossed aside like week old meat?

    It's also perfectly legal in the US o' A.

    Oh look at those idiots in govt.... with their job security, and their benefits, and their pension... clearly only the stupid people are the ones that apply to govt jobs! there's no way it's the most clever of us who work in govt...

  19. Re:Some of these updates are stupid.. on iOS 5 Update Available · · Score: 1

    I have a Windows Mobile device too... I'm still waiting for Apple or Google or Microsoft or SOMEBODY to be feature-complete with what Windows Mobile offered six years ago (2005). Until they can get the basics right, I'm sticking to my craptastic dumbphone and (unfortunately named) iPaq PDA.
