  1. You're not coding, you're prevaricating on Licensing an Abandonware Game? · · Score: 1

    Stop pissing around, slap a "z" on the end of the name, flip a few pixels around and ship the mofo.

  2. Old news on Hollow Spy Coins · · Score: 2, Funny

    Those of us with the eyes to see have long known that coins are notorious for being psychotronic mind-control amplifiers. That's why I only use my own banknotes, drawn on the First Bank of Rogerborg. Also: Al Gore is completely right about global warming.

  3. Re:Typical Labour policy on UK Gov't Wants Facebook To Feature Child Safety Button · · Score: 1

    Sure, she's a major rogue frontbencher. Also, a mental.

  4. Re:Typical Labour policy on UK Gov't Wants Facebook To Feature Child Safety Button · · Score: 1, Troll

    To be fair - and it twists my titties to say anything nice about Zanulabour - this is a Harridan Hormone policy, not nuLabour. She's utterly, utterly deranged.

    Although of course it is exactly the sort of tabloid friendly knee-jerk bullshit policy that they do so love enacting. Fortunately they won't have time, although I'm sure they'll announce it then accuse everyone else of being Soft on Child Predators.

  5. Re:So when was our environment methane? on China To Tap Combustible Ice As New Energy Source · · Score: -1, Troll

    Never. The earth has never been as hot as it is now. There's never been this concentration of greenhouse gases, since it's utterly unpossible for the biosphere to recover by itself. Only by giving massive amounts of money to Al Gore can we be saved. Ask not why you should give, ask how much.

    You may not like that truth - it may be inconvenient to you - but if you deny it, I shall dub thee "Witch", and you shall be stoned in the village square.

  6. Re:Those "up to" words again. on 50% Efficiency Boost From New Fuel Injection System · · Score: 1

    Not that you'll read it, but TFA actually says:

    Transonic Combustion, a startup based in Camarillo, CA, has developed a fuel-injection system it says can improve the efficiency of gasoline engines by more than 50 percent

    Of course, there's that "can" issue, but "up to" isn't there.

  7. Re:Stay away from this on Theoretical Breakthrough For Quantum Cryptography · · Score: 1

    Don't jump to a conclusion; we need confirmatory objections from Greenpeace before we can get fully behind it.

  8. Re:"This solves the problem by embedding it...." on Theoretical Breakthrough For Quantum Cryptography · · Score: 0

    Yup, I call Sufficiently Advanced Technology on that.

  9. Note: Apache ON WINDOWS on Serious Apache Exploit Discovered · · Score: -1, Troll

    Amazing; usually we're all about the M$ bashing.

  10. Re:Monster Raving Loony Party on Ask the UK Pirate Party's Andrew Robinson About the Issues · · Score: 1

    Seconded, wish I had mod points. The Pirate Party UK comes across as earnest and angry. Since it's a tiny insignificant protest party, that's a rather risible position to take. If you don't develop some levity, shouldn't you expect to be mocked?

    Why not (and this is also a serious question) lighten up and try and project a fun, positive message, rather than just impotently bitching and moaning?

  11. Re:LOL on Ubisoft's Authentication Servers Go Down · · Score: 3, Insightful

    What karma? People who already gave Ubisoft their money can't play. Looks to me that Ubisoft's dogma is alive and barking.

    Go on, argue that all those idiots won't be dumb enough to give Ubisoft more money next time. I'll bet that anyone retarded enough to do it once isn't the sort of person likely to learn from their mistakes.

  12. Re:What about ... on California To Create Public Animal Abuser Registry · · Score: 1

    Drugged, or GTFO.

  13. Re:Just wait... on California To Create Public Animal Abuser Registry · · Score: 1
  14. I don't get it on New Heat-Reduced Magnetic Solder Could Revolutionize Chip Design · · Score: 1

    The kdawson scripts posts the vapourware snake oil shill press releases. What's the ScuttleMonkey script doing muscling in?

  15. Submit, check your page rank, edit on Google Indexing In Near-Realtime · · Score: 2, Interesting

  16. Re:On units and their prefixes on Why PyCon 2010's Conference Wi-Fi Didn't Melt Down · · Score: 1, Funny

    My Alma Mater was incorporated in 1410; anything founded after that is a Community College. :P

  17. Re:On units and their prefixes on Why PyCon 2010's Conference Wi-Fi Didn't Melt Down · · Score: 4, Insightful

    Just FYI, the "job" of a Slashdot "editor" involves scoring Rob Malda some weed when you were at community college together, writing a very small shell script to post every 25th story submission, then scarfing beer and cheetos while playing in the Furry zone of Second Life for the rest of your "career".

    Mod hints: -1 Troll, +1 Informative, +1 Insightful

  18. Rename as "Avatar full BluRay rip.iso" on Long-Term Storage of Moderately Large Datasets? · · Score: 1

    Then let bittorrent take care of your distributed storage for you.

  19. Re:Nortel Pensioners Will Be All Over This on Hedge Fund Offers $2 Billion For Novell · · Score: 2, Funny

    Not people - Canadians.

  20. Re:WTO reply on Google Asks US For WTO Block On China Censorship · · Score: 5, Funny

    Sorry, we only do evil.

    Total, utter unmitigated uninformed bullshit. When have the WTO ever said "Sorry"?

  21. Re:Kill Switch? on $1M Prize For Finding Cause of Unintended Acceleration · · Score: 1

    And who do you think you are?

  22. Re:"The" cause on $1M Prize For Finding Cause of Unintended Acceleration · · Score: 5, Funny

    To be fair though, the ZX-10 is designed for queers and tarts; it's necessary to be able to stop with a pinky finger so that you can wiggle your other fingers and coo "Helloooo, sailor" at passing twinks.

    -Mod hints: -1 Troll, +1 Informative.

  23. Re:Kill Switch? on $1M Prize For Finding Cause of Unintended Acceleration · · Score: 1

    [Citation needed]

    I've heard plenty of stories from bikers (including myself) which ended "...and then I realised the kill switch was on." but never, ever heard of anyone who had to call in professional help to figure it out.

    Your assertion, your burden of proof.

  24. Re:Solution on $1M Prize For Finding Cause of Unintended Acceleration · · Score: 1

    I'll type this slowly so that you can understand it: one of the possible causes for the aberrant behaviour is the drive-by-wire accelerator malfunctioning and continuing to accelerate the car even when the pedal is released.

    The solution being suggested here is that operating the brake pedal should cut off acceleration, regardless of the signal from the accelerator.

  25. Re:Sure they could have been readily used. on Terry Childs's Slow Road To Justice · · Score: 1

    All true, but let's also not forget that the reason that Childs is in there is that he is an aspie asshole, and based on his own admissions, he's clearly guilty of trying to bone his employer (the taxpayer, lest we forget) through nothing more than hubris and a massively over-inflated sense of self-worth.
