    It's not Pirate Day, buddy.

  3. Re:They're leaves. on Trains May Soon Come Equipped With Debris-Zapping Lasers · · Score: 5, Funny

    Indeed. Where are they going to attach the sharks?

  4. If languages had mascots on Why Apple, Google, and FB Have Their Own Programming Languages · · Score: 2, Funny

    Then Red Forman would be the mascot for Swift.

    As in, a swift kick in the ass. Dumbass.

  5. Re:Multipass on Researchers Design DNA With New Shapes and Structures · · Score: 2

    Autowash.

  6. Spiral is the key on Researchers Design DNA With New Shapes and Structures · · Score: 1

    DNA shaped like a spiral is the key.

  7. Re:Interstellar pic ? on How Astronomers Will Take the "Image of the Century": a Black Hole · · Score: 0

    My question is, will the image of the black hole suck less than the 'Event Horizon' movie?

  8. Re:Let me guess on New Virus Means Deadlier Flu Season Is Possible · · Score: 1

    No, you're wrong, you totally need Tamiflu or Relenza, the CDC said so!

  9. Re:Over what time interval? on The Sony Pictures Hack Was Even Worse Than Everyone Thought · · Score: 2

    What do you mean? An African or European year?

  10. Re:Seriously? on Ultrasound Used To Create Haptics That Can Be Touched and Felt · · Score: 2

    It took you 33 years to come up with Joe?!

  11. Re: Apple cult on Woz Downplays the Significance of Apple's Startup Garage · · Score: 1

    Of course. There's Slashdot, YouTube, eBay, Amazon and Netflix. The rest is adult websites.

  12. Re:DRM-only? on Apple Accused of Deleting Songs From iPods Without Users' Knowledge · · Score: 1

    If you do a factory reset and expect anything to not be deleted, you need to go back to school.

  13. DRM-only? on Apple Accused of Deleting Songs From iPods Without Users' Knowledge · · Score: 2

    Were the deleted songs DRM'ed by RealNetworks? (these guys still existed?)

    I'm pretty sure that regular MP3 files were not deleted, so it's not really a case of "not bought here", remember that Apple was under a lot of legal obligations by the music labels regarding FairPlay DRM at the time.

  14. Re:Stable enough? on Windows 10 Adds Battery Saver Feature · · Score: 1

    If someone's talking about a gaming PC and your solution is OS X, Linux or BSD, you're in for a world of pain alright.

  15. Re:Stable enough? on Windows 10 Adds Battery Saver Feature · · Score: 1

    I'm talking about a gaming PC and your arguments are about backup tools and things that only a business admin* would use?

    * I'm just guessing here, I never heard about volume managers, storage spaces, autotiering or hypervisors.

  16. Re:Stable enough? on Windows 10 Adds Battery Saver Feature · · Score: 1

    If you had to choose between Windows XP or Windows 10 Technical Preview, which one would you choose?

  17. Stable enough? on Windows 10 Adds Battery Saver Feature · · Score: 1

    Is Windows 10 Technical Preview stable enough for a gaming PC?

  18. Re:Can somebody direct me to some examples? on Chinese CEO Says "Free" Is the Right Price For Mobile Software · · Score: 3, Insightful

    In my town, the "high-quality" Chinese products are at the dollar store...

  19. Re:Do You Even Revenue, Bro? on Chinese CEO Says "Free" Is the Right Price For Mobile Software · · Score: 3, Insightful

    You know all those links you clicked? All those pages you saw? There was ads on them. That's the business model.

  20. Re:When you're right, you're right. on Chinese CEO Says "Free" Is the Right Price For Mobile Software · · Score: 2

    Beta tapes cost more than VHS: VHS, though inferior, won.

    I thought VHS won because of recording time?

  21. Look, without envy, people wouldn't be downloading movies illegally.
    It's clear God himself is to blame.

  22. Penny Arcade on Dragon Age: Inquisition Reviewed and Benchmarked · · Score: 0
  23. Re:"second screen" innovation on The PlayStation Turns 20 · · Score: 2

    Wouldn't the numeric keypad with overlays of the Intellivision controllers count as "touch controls"?

  24. Windows? Safari? on Valve Rolls Out Game Broadcasting Service For Steam · · Score: 1

    Viewing a stream is currently supported by the Steam client itself, Google Chrome, and Apple Safari. It only works on Windows 7 and 8 at this point.

    Last time I checked Apple had discontinued Safari for Windows, so what is that about?

  25. New speech system is free and open-source on Stephen Hawking's New Speech System Is Free and Open-source · · Score: 1

    Stephen Hawking: I call it a Hawking-Voice.
