  1. Doesn't have to be an "expensive pursuit" on Kite Aerial Photography · · Score: 1

    This doesn't have to be an "expensive pursuit" Linky, linky. Cost is 30 bucks, plus BYOK (bring your own kite). It uses a disposable camera (included) triggered mechanically by a control line.

  2. Re:I wonder if it does video.... on Interview of Danger (Sidekick II) CEO Hank Nothhaft · · Score: 1

    To quote Joe Martin's "Mr. Boffo", "Perfect for Idiot".

  3. Research in Virginal Territory? on Simulating the Whole Universe · · Score: 2, Funny

    Given that this group is called "the Virgo Consortium", is it any wonder that they have to resort to a "simulated" "Big Bang"?

  4. Re:Why? on The Swiss Army Knife of USB Drives · · Score: 1

    >> could someone enlighten me to the uses of a USB flash drive out in the wild?

    If you're lost in the woods, a few megs of pictures from Aunt Tillie's 84th birthday party might just save your life.

  5. Re:Maybe for good reason on Top Banned Books of 2003 · · Score: 2, Funny

    Where's Waldo?

    He's in hiding.
    After escaping from prison.
    But he's still wearing the prison stripes.
    So he shouldn't be too hard to find.

  6. Re:Packet monkeys, eh? on CEO Indicted for DDOSing Competitors · · Score: 1

    They said "packet monkeys", not "Paki monkeys".

  7. Re:For the slashdotted on Locus Interviews Neal Stephenson · · Score: 1

    Your $8.00 just wants to be free.

  8. Re:Oh, patients... on Hardware That Literally Doesn't Stink? · · Score: 5, Funny

    Clearly this is a case of allergy to cat pollen. Go ahead, ask me another one...

  9. What I'd really like to see on Inside Al-Qaeda's Hard Drive · · Score: 1

    >> giving the hard drives to CIA agents in Afghanistan

    Yeah, but what happened to the Post-It Notes stuck around the monitors? I'll bet that's where all the *really* interesting information is!

  10. Know your enemy on Know Your Enemy, 2nd Edition · · Score: 0, Flamebait

    I'm pretty sure that in this day and age law enforcement is the enemy.

  11. Re:In case of slashdotting... on Meta-tag Spam Declared Illegal in Germany · · Score: 1

    Gesundheit!

  12. Re:Crapflood reviewers... on Katie Jones Interviewed · · Score: 1

    Go check out the Amazon reviews on Michael Moore's latest book. It's like the battle for Stalingrad all over again; the Commies and the Fascists fight a vast and bloody battle, the Commies win, but are left with a city of only rubble. It's simultaneously hilarious and disgusting.

  13. Re:Toshiba Satellite on Laptops with the Longest Battery Life? · · Score: 1

    I mod your laptop (+1, Efficient).

    What kind of power does a modern laptop draw, anyway?

  14. Re:GOOG as stock ticker on Google Sets IPO Pricing · · Score: 1

    If it trades on NASDAQ it has four letters in the ticker. If it trades on NYSE it has one, two, or three letters. If it trades on AMEX, it's a piece of shit.

  15. It is just stupid on History of the Automatic Teller · · Score: 3, Insightful

    that I can get a transaction receipt from a Diebold ATM, but not from a Diebolt voting machine.

  16. Suspicion on Abbreviating Name on Official Documents? · · Score: 1

    Tim v. Timothy probably doesn't make them suspicious. The "harlows_monkeys" thing, however...

  17. Re:Hats on 1984 Comes To Boston · · Score: 1

    tinfoil?

  18. The line on Diebold Sued (Again) Over Shoddy Voting Machines · · Score: 0, Troll

    The line between shoddy and shitty has never been so fine.

  19. Re:Dumbed-down on NYT Magazine: Are Comics The New Mainstream Novels? · · Score: 3, Funny

    Perfectly suited to our dumbed-down culture and collective attention deficit...

    Maybe, who's gonna RTFA to find out?

  20. Re:Attitude stability? on ISS Gyro Fixed Via Spacewalk · · Score: 1

    >> I personally enjoy the drug "alcohol", but that isn't recommended for people with severe asshat syndrome.

    Doesn't that leave 99.865% of the population out in the cold and dead sober?

  21. Re:Driving Habbits on EPA Fuel Economy Myth: Too High, Too Low? · · Score: 1

    I think a big part of that is the turbo. A normally aspirated car would not show such a big difference.

  22. Unfortunately on Open Source Life? · · Score: 2, Interesting

    >> What happens when a bio-cracker unleashes a plant virus on all the wheat in North America...?

    Probably a lot of poor people are going to die.

  23. Re:Whoops... on iPod Your BMW Officially Launched · · Score: 1

    That's why the iPod is securely stowed in the glovebox. You don't want that thing flopping all over the car every time you choose a track.

  24. Re:Hmmmm? on A Scanner Darkly Film Preview · · Score: 1, Funny

    >> Keanu Reeves, Winona Ryder, Robert Downey Jr. and Woody Harrelson.

    If they use real drugs it's gonna cost more than LOTR to make this movie.

  25. Re:One of the best things Google/GMail could do on Gmail Spam Filter Testing · · Score: 1, Offtopic

    Try turning Javascript on, then you'll see what it's all about. (don't)
