    My fiancee loves black guns, and doesn't care for pink.

  3. Re:Oh my God! on Microsoft Unveils First New Company Logo In 25 Years · · Score: 3, Funny

    The video linked in the Technet announcement is interesting:

    blue: Windows
    red: Office
    green: XBOX
    yellow: ???

    Maybe Microsoft is planning a new product line ... (if yellow was Server or dev tools there would be no reason not to include it in the video)

    Hmm I would have thought ...

    Blue - Windows (For BSOD)
    Red - XBox (For RROD)
    Yellow - ASP/.NET (Yellow screen of death)
    Green - ... Okay stuck on this one.

  4. Birth of the Juicer :) on An Olympic Games For Enhanced Athletes? · · Score: 1

    And so the birth of the Juicer beings :) ... they'll have to make sure they get hefty contracts as that eight-year life span (burn-out) can be a bitch and you want to make sure you party it up before you burn-out.

  7. Re:Caffeine Coccaine on FDA To Review Inhalable Caffeine · · Score: 2

    Isn't pure caffeine powder deadly? I'm guessing this product doesn't actually contain "caffeine" powder or we'll hear about how some kid killed him/herself with a pack of these canisters.

    Even worse ... its odorless, tasteless, and dissolves instantly in water. Thankfully most of us from the 80's generation have built up an immunity to it.

  8. Re:OPT OUT on Female Passengers Say They Were Targeted For TSA Body Scanners · · Score: 2

    consider that you can get an airworthy 2-seater for about $15,000.

    Considering that the Hindenburg and Titanic were both top dollar for their time and both considered well above "airworthy" and "seaworthy", this is one area I dont think I would consider going cheap on.

  14. Re:In other words on A Fifth of Telecommuters Work Less Than An Hour Per Day · · Score: 1

    For companies to do it right, it means there is a web cam that your manager can turn on and off at different times as well view your screen

    Unless of course like me they have a spare docking station at home for their work laptops and use it when working from home. So the whole web cam point becomes pretty much invalid.

  15. Re:kids these days on William Shatner On Star Trek Vs. Star Wars · · Score: 1

    So they have no personal hygiene, listen to rastabilly skank and are their own parents?

    The most prominent ruin-to-be from the height of the empire, the days of peak oil. Give it 50 years and the few rag-clad scavengers populating the lower levels will wonder what the fuck anyone thought when they built this....

    Brings to mind the Aztechnology building from Shadowrun. C*O's and filthy rich at the top, and the just plain filthy at the bottom.

  24. Second password to wipe phone. on Police Can Search Cell Phones Without Warrants · · Score: 1

    Hmm I wonder if someone could develop an app that modifies the password entry screen so that you could put in either; A) Main password to access phone functions, or B) Secondary password that basically wipes the data on the phone.

    On the iPhone X number of bad password entries does this now, how hard would it be to modify that code so that you could have a second password setup to do this once that password is entered.

    Could even make it more user friendly to require a second acknowledgement of this password once entered before it does it job. Sort of fail-safe option so you can change your mind if needed, but the person who has taken phone and put it in might not realize it.

  25. Re:He did it on Thief Posts His Photo To Facebook Victim's Account · · Score: 1

    That's enough green to put some spinner hubcaps on the 'ol 1998 Accord Sedan.

    Not in my area, here it would be the amount required for them to put a down payment on a set of rent to own spinners. After which they then go to the local check into cash or title loan and put up the title of the car they just put the spinners on to make the next payment on the rims.

    Amazing the number of cars in my area where the rims cost more than the car they are on, and the driver is making payments on both.
