  1. What outside? on Computing Al Fresco? · · Score: 1

    Do you mean outside of the room/rooms that your computers are contained in? Like a hallway or bathroom?

  2. Security? on PHP and SQL Security · · Score: 2, Funny

    Why worry about security when your site's been slashdotted? No one can get to it so no one can hack it!!!

  3. Simple solution? on Satellites Show That Earth Has a Fever · · Score: 1
    Unfortunately for us, if satellites can more precisely measure this rise of the Earth's temperature, they cannot cure this fever.


    So if we just stop measuring the earth's temperature will it be cured?

  4. Re:I want to see the costume on New Darth Vader Costume Revealed in upcoming DVDs · · Score: 1

    Next they're going to release this AMAZING detail from Episode III:

    Someone, in episode III, is going to see in to the future and we'll all watch in awe and amazement as the deathstar is destroyed!

  5. I work for an ISP.... on Giving Up Passwords For Chocolate · · Score: 1

    and I get passwords all the time. I just ask, and people tell me. But what's really funny is when people say "Well I don't have a password! Why would I need a password for my account?"

  6. A few suggestions and a plug on Non-FPS Network Games to Play at Work? · · Score: 1

    Bolo used to be great but never found it for mac os x. If you're looking for a web based fighting/gambling game try BattleWang

    Of course, nothing beats TurtleTerror

  7. Too bad on Save a Chatlog... Go to Prison? · · Score: 1

    Doesn't iChat have the ability to log all of your conversations? Hope that doesn't land Apple in hot water as well.

  8. It's a tough idea to like on Stoplights to Mete Out Punishment? · · Score: 1

    I think that it's a great idea to stop speeders. And with most/all lights aware when there's police/fire/ambulance running through it makes sense. They're the only ones who should be speeding. The one very bad scenario is that the speeder blows through the red light and slams in to traffic that then has the right of way. If they're speeding that much they either don't care much about red lights or are speeding so much they don't have time to stop.

  9. Here's what I like: on Privacy Complaint Against Google's GMail Service · · Score: 1

    At the bottom of the article you get this:

    Get your own free Yahoo! email address: Sign up

  10. It's past the year 2000 on How Will We Get Around Near-Future Earth? · · Score: 1

    and where's my damn flying car?

  11. crap on Xbox Price Drop To $149 Now Official · · Score: 1

    my g/f just got me a ps2 for my birthday.

  12. too early for april fools day on Why You Should Choose MS Office Over OO.org · · Score: 2, Funny

    You're a week off!

  13. A mix of hardware and software on Limiting Bandiwidth in a Shared DSL Environment? · · Score: 1

    The hardware being your boot and the software being his ass. Not only is his downloading slowing you down but with all the RIAA crap going around it could be a legal liability. You have to think that if something happens legally, will this 15 year old behind a router going to get sued? Or the registered name/owner of the DSL service?

  14. Search is dead? on MSN Rolling Out New Search Engine In July · · Score: 2, Funny

    So how long is it before we start seeing the headlines "Google is dead!"

    (Not that I want to see google go, but everything else is dead. Apple, Tivo, BSD, and etc.)

  15. Re:Jesus on Modernizing the Save Icon? · · Score: 1

    The Mel Gibson picture of Jesus.

  16. National "Get more out of your stuff" day? on Turbo Codes Promise Better Wireless Transmission · · Score: 1

    Did I forget to mark this on my calendar? At first it's hard drives and now bandwidth. What's next, how to overclock your pc/microwave/toaster/car?

  17. Re:upgrade == replace on Manufacturing 1 PC Takes 1.8 Tons Of Raw Material · · Score: 1

    I have the same problem with my file/web server. It's mainly old, 1997, hardware that runs fine for what you need it to do. I've had a fre times where I'd have/want to replace ram/cpu/motherboard and there are no local shops that carry a socket 7 processor. Most stores are phasing pc100/133 ram. Thankfully that machine is not a necessity so I can wait to get something from ebay or I can find what I want from pricewatch, but it's very annoying when you want to get something done right then.

  18. Spell check on Favorite Hidden Google Features? · · Score: 1

    I'm not too sure on the spelling of some of my words, and even though I'm geek thin, I fat finger keys a lot. So I really like the "Did you mean:" feature of google.

    Another one that I don't think to use as often as I should is the Google Viewer It's like a slide show of your search results.

  19. Oh no! Dead? on Rob Enderle Announces Death of Bluetooth · · Score: 3, Funny

    Isn't apple dead too?

  20. Re:Delete Button? on Development Of The TiVo Remote Charted · · Score: 1

    On the svr-2000 remote you can click on clear when you have a recording selected and it will delete it for you. not sure about the other remotes.

  21. odd gift on Strangest Valentine's Day Gifts? · · Score: 1

    My girl got me a few things. One was a pair of boxers with pink fish on them. There's tons of little blue fish but some pink fish as well. Her defense was "They looked gray to me."

  22. Oh look! on Joel Rants About Resumes · · Score: 1

    It's the Simon Crowell of resumes!

    Really, if I wanted obvious criticism like "You need to capitalize the I" or "Spaces don't go before commas" I'd go back to grade school.

    As most of the other comments have pointed out, it's a guy with a power trip. The most obvious example is the quote "The scanner is right next to the shredder in my office and the shredder is easier to use."

  23. Re:NASAs evil plan on Spirit Rover Communications Error · · Score: 1

    1) send expensive toy truck to mars
    2) colonize galaxy, defeat the evil Darth Vader and rescue the princess.
    3) PROFIT!!!

  24. Why music? on UK Music Industry Stomps on Imported CD Seller · · Score: 1

    Why do music industries have to be so bullyish? Why couldn't it be an industry that we don't care about? Like interior design.

  25. Re:I can read my Software Update window, thanks. on iCal 1.5.2 Released · · Score: 0, Offtopic

    Don't forget that 10.4 will be $120 and only work on Mac's with the wine processor.
