  1. Screw all these new editions on Ask the Designers of D&D Fourth Edition · · Score: 1

    I was happy with the Basic and Advanced D&D box sets. You don't need to carry a huge backpack in order to tote around a dozen or so of D&D books.

  2. Holy Old news Batman on Black Hole Fires at Neighboring Galaxy · · Score: 1

    Are the /. editors asleep today? This is old news.

  3. Don't forget the added Bonus! on Dell's World of Warcraft Laptop · · Score: 1

    Your brand new Dell laptop comes pre-installed with Blizzard's very own spyware.

  4. I wonder what she can do with... on Microfluidic Chips Made With Shrinky Dinks · · Score: 1

    I wonder what she can do with

    * Sea Monkies
    * Pet Rock
    * Spinart

  5. Gumby -vs- Rockmen of the Moon on Sliding Rocks Bemuse Scientists · · Score: 1

    "They're only pretending to be rocks" --Gumby

  6. But can it do.... on Red Hat Releases RHEL 5.1, Includes Virtualization · · Score: 0, Redundant

    "Red Hat Enterprise Linux 5.1 virtualization delivers considerably broader server support than proprietary virtualization products, and up to twice the performance."

    But can it support Leopard?

  7. Re:Replacement had Nothing to do with it! on House Narrowly Avoids Having to Debate Impeachment of Cheney · · Score: 1

    Nixon bridged the gap with China. Cheney influenced the war with Iraq and now wants a war with Iran for the name of profits for his toad buddies at Haliburton.

  8. Re:Interesting on $200 Linux PCs On Sale At Wal-Mart · · Score: 1

    How many parents out there really need PowerPoint for god sakes? I'm guessing that 99.9% of the parents out there want a computer for;

    * Online Shopping
    * Email to distant relatives and family.
    * News
    * Viewing and printing family photos.
    * Basic word processing

  9. I think it's sad looking at all the changes on High-Res Scan of Mona Lisa Reveals Its History · · Score: 1

    I'll never understand why somebody would spend so much time trying to perfect art. He should have just left it alone instead of kept redoing parts and details of the painting. I'm not trying to compare the two as equals, but it's like George Lucas screwing around with the original Star Wars movies. Leave your original work alone and move on to bigger and better projects.

  10. What about this idea? on Cracking Go · · Score: 0, Offtopic

    What about a Bew....nah nevermind.

  11. Does reading this post on First 'Quantum Computer Chips' Demonstrated · · Score: 2, Funny

    change the outcome of the story?

  12. Re:The headline leaves only one question on German Physicists Claim Speed of Light Broken · · Score: 1

    More importantly, if the two are convicted, how in the world can we keep them in jail? Couldn't they easily slip out of prison by tunneling through the security walls to escape?

  13. Dumb question but what about hand santizers? on Anti-Bacterial Soap No Better Than Plain Soap · · Score: 1

    Do those Purell hand sanitizers type products fall under this category?

  14. Final Resting Place on AppleWorks/ClarisWorks Dies Quietly · · Score: 1

    Ahhh yes, you can find Appleworks final resting place next to "Apple Presents Apple" on the Ye Olde Softeware shelf. In fact the very sign for "Ye Olde Software Shelf" was done with the Beagle Brothers software which in turn found itself on that very shelf.

    R.I.P. once proud software.

  15. Hey Rocky... on Adobe May Launch Office Rival · · Score: 5, Funny

    Bullwinkle: Hey Rocky, watch me pull an Office suite rival out of my Hat.
    Rocky: "gain? that trick never works
    Bullwinkle: This time for sure. Nothing up my sleeves...PRESTO!
    Adobe_Killer_Office_App:
    Bullwinkle: Guess I should have stuck to bloatware readers, Google taskbar and Kinkos.
    Rocky: Now here's something you'll really like.

  16. Re:Write them to a DVD jukebox on DSS/HIPPA/SOX Unalterable Audit Logs? · · Score: 2, Interesting

    What about the old school method of dumping the log directly to a line printer?

  17. It's not a real standup arcade game on Project Arcade · · Score: 2, Funny

    It's not a real stand up arcade game unless it has cigarette burns on it by the player 1 & 2 buttons.

  18. Go Bender! on Robots To Replace Migrant Fruit Pickers · · Score: 1

    Wetbacks being replaced by Wetbots.

  19. 007 on Lake Disappears into Andes · · Score: 3, Funny

    Just like what happened to the lake in that James Bond movie. Launch the rocket!

  20. The only reason I would ever use Safari on Safari 3 vs. Firefox 2 and IE7 · · Score: 1

    The only reason I would ever use Safari is to download Firefox on a new Mac. I just find Safari to be annoying and too "plain Jane".

  21. Clowns on Businesses Scramble To Stay Out of Google Hell · · Score: 1

    I don't feel sorry for those diamond encrusted clowns. They decided to screw around to jockey up their Google rating and it backfired. They deserve every bit of their current Google state.

  22. Law is aimed at the wrong age group on Chinese Govt Limits Kids to 3hrs of Online Gaming · · Score: 1

    Too bad that legal and underground Internet cafes in China are now the new Opium Dens. It's the adult crowd in China that is really abusing the system. They get more money going into the online game gold trade/farming gig then they would with a real mundane job.

  23. Planet of the What? on Should Chimps Have Human Rights? · · Score: 1

    Take your stinking paws off me you damn dirty apes!

  24. Re:How low can they go? on FTC To Investigate 'Viral Marketing' Practices · · Score: 1

    Oh nos, the FTC is now stepping up and taking the mantle of the Thought Police. It's time for the FTC to be dismantled and rebuilt from scratch.

    You changed the outcome by observing it's smell.
