  1. Obligatory on The Emerging RadioShack/Netflix Debacle · · Score: 1

    Obligatory Seinfeld clip.

  2. Re:Odd on Why Nissan Is Talking To Tesla Model S Owners · · Score: 2

    Unless there's no charge station between the two points.

  3. DARPA is said to be looking for this man on DARPA Looks To End the Scourge of Counterfeit Computer Gear · · Score: 1

    Because this man would be the perfect leader for their new project.

  4. Relying on a spellchecker makes you a bad writer on Does Relying On an IDE Make You a Bad Programmer? · · Score: 1

    Visual Stuidio?

  5. Re:FIRST POST on The Ever So Unlikely Tale of How ARM Came To Rule the World · · Score: 0

    Posted from your cellphone, I presume. You just made ARM proud.

  6. Re:Forget Google Glass, buy something else on Ask Slashdot: Should I Get Google Glass? · · Score: 1

    And the MakiBox is only 200$, I know.

    I was just saying that some models can be really expensive, and 1500$ could be a 1000$ CNC with a 500$ 3D printer anyway.

  7. Forget Google Glass, buy something else on Ask Slashdot: Should I Get Google Glass? · · Score: 1

    With 1500$ you can get a desktop CNC machine or a 3D printer. If you shop around, maybe both.

  8. Starbound on Ask Slashdot: What Games Are You Playing? · · Score: 4, Informative

    It's like Terraria, but much better and available on all three platforms*.

    * Linux, Mac OS X, Windows. Were you thinking about something else?

  9. Re:What about cats? on Does Crime Leave a Genetic Trace? · · Score: 5, Funny

    The cat translator is still in early stages, however the reply was more or less "it tastes like chicken".

  10. Re:sheep, not competent cyborg on Are You a Competent Cyborg? · · Score: 1

    Yeah, a real cyborg would have wi-fi connectivity in the brain, be able to memorize and compute huge amounts of data as well as current computers, he would also have a built-in CNC, 3D printer, laser/plasma cutter and could dispense ice cubes in hot summer weather.

    Wait, what was the topic again?

  11. A rock, you say? on The Ultimate Hopes For the New Cosmos Series · · Score: 1

    Nobody lives under a rock, but we all live on one. The 3rd one from the Sun, to be exact.

  12. Re:Mc Donalds have beaten them on Scientists Create Pizza That Can Last Years · · Score: 1

    McDonalds used to have pizza in Canada. It didn't last long, but it still tasted better than regular frozen pizzas from the supermarket.

  13. Re:Make pizza burgers on Scientists Create Pizza That Can Last Years · · Score: 1

    I do the same thing, but I use both halves of the English muffin, otherwise you just end up wasting a whole muffin every time you make two mini pizzas.

    Also, if English muffins are just called muffins in England, what do they call the usual cupcake-style, cake dough muffins?

  14. Re:I'd rather not. on Scientists Create Pizza That Can Last Years · · Score: 1

    And don't forget to dip it in liquid butter every time you take a bite!

  15. Re:Jail for a stolen DVD on South Carolina Woman Jailed After Failing To Return Movie Rented Nine Years Ago · · Score: 0

    MOD PARENT UP!

  16. Re:Alright already on US Secretary of State Calls Climate Change 'Weapon of Mass Destruction' · · Score: 1

    The Earth is the box we live in. He's talking about sending carbon dioxide out of our atmosphere.

    You can't get more out-of-the-box thinking than that.

  17. Re:There's absolutely no potential for abuse on Report: Valve Anti-Cheat (VAC) Scans Your DNS History · · Score: 2

    Also, do you have to look at so much lesbian porn all the time? There are other things on the Internet, you know.

    What do you mean? An African or European lesbian?

  18. Re:So on Report: Valve Anti-Cheat (VAC) Scans Your DNS History · · Score: 1

    Or nuke the gaming PC from space. It's the only way to be sure.

  19. Re: So on Report: Valve Anti-Cheat (VAC) Scans Your DNS History · · Score: 2

    He's running Slashdot inside a VM and using a virtual keyboard and mouse to hide his clandestine non-work-related browsing, give him a break.

  20. Related? on Whatever Happened To the IPv4 Address Crisis? · · Score: 1

    Apple has been "dying" for years and we're been on the verge of an IPv4 crisis for years too. And then there's the little fact that devices have a "MAC address"... Conspiracy? I don't think so!

    What does it mean? No idea. I just put stupidly insane conspiracies online, I let the crazy people fill in the details.

  21. Re:Buy samsung instead on Apple Rumored To Be Exploring Medical Devices, Electric Cars To Reignite Growth · · Score: 0

    And 2001: A Space Odyssey was made decades before digital photo frames.

  22. Re:Not a good sign on Apple Rumored To Be Exploring Medical Devices, Electric Cars To Reignite Growth · · Score: 1

    I'm still wondering which we're going to see first: a donut with pizza fillings* from Dunkin Donuts or a custard-filled stuffed crust from Pizza Hut.

    * a Hot Pocket isn't a donut.

  23. I'd rather trust Apple to have up-to-date software for their cars than any other company out there. Remember cars with Windows CE?

  24. Re:iHeart u too! on Apple Rumored To Be Exploring Medical Devices, Electric Cars To Reignite Growth · · Score: 2

    Yeah, these days it's all about X-Men and The Avengers.

  25. Re:Tango DropBox on 'CandySwipe' Crushed: When Game Development Turns Nasty · · Score: 1

    The parent post didn't say anything about who was first. Not everyone uses DropBox and I'm sure a tiny percentage of DropBox users ever heard of TangoDropBox.

    Ignorance does not make me a troll.

    And TangoDropBox should sue DropBox for using a shorter version of their own name.
