  1. Xorg??? on The State of X.Org · · Score: 1

    I always thought that was a pr0no site. Wow, now i"m really disillusioned.

  2. My guess is on Hans Reiser To Reveal Location of Wife's Body · · Score: 1

    that he will reveal the body is in Egvekinot, Russia. (check Google maps for this hospitable "resort" location, lol)

  3. So does this mean on Proposed Legislation Would Outlaw "Cyberbullying" in US · · Score: 1

    that I can have Comcast, the RIAA, and MPAA arrested?

  4. Re:What's with all the negative waves? on Latest "Green" Power Generation — Your Feet · · Score: 1

    Hey, don't mod that one down, I thought it was hilarious- and true.

  5. What about Zero Point Energy? on Latest "Green" Power Generation — Your Feet · · Score: 1

    cold fusion, and magical Tesla power transmission. Ok, I'm just kidding, but I couldn't resist.

  6. Some peope here are dead wrong on ID Theft In US Continues Apace Despite Data Breach Laws · · Score: 1

    The majority of identity theft occurs due to illegal aliens using other people's SS numbers to gain employment. The criminals are in the minority. The solution to this is effective immigration policies, not draconian laws.

    Also, its rare for the illegal aliens to take out credit or anything on the SS number. They are just using it for employment purposes and thats it.

  7. My feet are always green energy on Latest "Green" Power Generation — Your Feet · · Score: 1, Flamebait

    Thats because I made a conscious choice to live in the city. I can walk to almost anywhere I need to, and on those rare occasions that I can't, there is always the bus. Plus I get the additional benefit of lowered chance of cardiovascular disease and others so I'm not going to weigh down the health system like the lazy people out in the suburbs. They drive everywhere with their gigantic SUV's, polluting the environment and turning into big lumps of fat.

  8. Re:Their traffic - shape it if you want on Legal Trouble For Multiple ISPs · · Score: 1

    He is correct. Everything I have ever read about market economics makes the same point. it was the same way with "day traders."

  9. I don't mind paying $1 or two extra for on Legal Trouble For Multiple ISPs · · Score: 1

    an Ubuntu iso image now and then (or even a Knoppix DVD). But the ISP's have to spell out in graphic terms exactly what they are going to charge for the larger use of bandwidth. The same would apply if I was a big video fan. I just want them to be honest, thats all. I think that if they really got honest, customers would warm up to them, and they would get more business. The CEO's at these companies must be all idiots- not realizing this. They are just alienating their customers.

  10. OH my God!! on Microsoft Seeks Patent On Brain-Based Development · · Score: 1

    Does this mean that Microsoft owns the rights to my brain now???

  11. I installed SP3 on Windows XP SP3 Causing Router Crashes · · Score: 4, Funny

    and now women won't go out on dates with me anymore. ....ok, they wouldn't with Service Pack 1 or 2 either, so I'm now trying Vista.

  12. Re:"King-size Homer" season 7 episode 7, Nov 5, 19 on Software Update Shuts Down Nuclear Power Plant · · Score: 1

    Dohh! You beat me to this!! Well, I'll have a donut and console myself.

  13. Hillary in "Sunset Boulevard" video on Barack Obama Wins Democratic Nomination · · Score: 1

  14. Re:Tor, Freenet, and I2P on Nominations Open For "Most Likely to be Shut Down By Government" · · Score: 1

    No, I believe you are thinking of Amtrak. Now there is a true random seed.

  15. And how many have died? on Pringles Can Designer Dies, Buried In a Pringles Can · · Score: 0, Offtopic

    From the resultant "Pringles Syndrome" heart disease?

    Here is their Secret formula (shh, don't tell anyone): Take 1lb of lard, add 1 oz potato mash, fry, put in can, profit!!

  16. Depends on on Moving Between Countries? · · Score: -1, Offtopic

    whether you are working for the OpenBSD project or something else.

  17. Just wait on China's Cyber-Militia · · Score: 4, Funny

    From now on every instance of government stupidity and incompetence will be blamed on Chinese Hackers. Well, maybe the 13 year old hacker in his parent's basement is finally safe.

  18. My plan for cheap lighting on DoE Announces 'L Prize' For Solid-State Lighting · · Score: 1

    1. Hang fluorescent tubes all over the wall with no wires attached.
    2.. Become ham radio operator
    3. Communicate
    4. Bulbs light up your room.

    And its almost free, since that near field energy would be turned into heat anyway.

  19. I suggest a more radical approach on Prototype EU Airplane Spy Cams Watch For Facecrime · · Score: 1

    Lets use the cameras to take the images, then find the seat number of the passenger, then download all of his passport information via the RFID chip.

    I'd really feel safe then. (sarcasm)

  20. Is this an outsourcing problem? on Dell Found Guilty of Fraud, False Advertising · · Score: 1

    When I owned a Dell, I couldn't talk to anyone before going through India first. Once I got a really knowledgeable person on the other end, but for the most part, the Indians were incompetent and did everything they could to stall me from getting in-home service from my contract. My computer's motherboard was replaced 7 times in the few years that I owned it. Several times it was because the SMT ethernet or USB ports came loose from the motherboard. So Dell spent $800 to fix a $0.10 part.

  21. Re:yay on Canadians Organizing a Rally For Net Neutrality · · Score: 0, Flamebait

    Well hopefully the next person "Down South" will be Obama, who might have a more positive influence in the region.

  22. "The TPM chip will mainly work on on Atari Founder Proclaims the End of Gaming Piracy · · Score: 1

    the Amiga," said Troy McClure, spokesman for Atari.

  23. Religious Cults on Telcos Compete For Education Broadcast Spectrum · · Score: 1

    Are they going to get their own frequencies? Who determines what is a religion and what is not?

  24. I forsee nefarious law enforcement uses on An Advance In Image Recognition Software · · Score: 1

    But then again, rotating an image 90 degrees might defeat the whole system. Scientists are so busy being sophisticated and racing to write journal articles that they often miss the obvious.

  25. This will produce easier to read bombs on Breakthrough In Plastic Lasers · · Score: 2, Funny

    You know, every bomb has an LED readout that counts down the minutes and seconds. I saw it on TV. Even nukes have them.
