  1. Re:Here we go again... on Will Peggy the Programmer Be the New Rosie the Riveter? · · Score: 1

    It's because they don't see it as a viable occupation for them. They are choosing not to enter the field - for whatever reason - but it is a choice that women have made.

    What incredible insight you have! Some people with more insight, though, go even further and ask "Why?"

  2. Re:Pretty cool but.... on Electric Bikes Get More Elegant Every Year (Video) · · Score: 1

    On the other hand, my experience has been that people who tend to ride electric bicycles (and gas-powered pit bikes and powered scooters of the Razor style) tend to be jerks who ride on sidewalks and terrorize pedestrians.

    +1

  3. Re:58 is pretty young on Jim Weirich, Creator of Rake, Has Passed Away · · Score: 1

    I hope you also realize how difficult it is to loose weight and stay fit as you age; Jim was 58.

    I hope you realize you don't know how easy it is to lose weight and get fit as you age, especially if you're starting off sedentary.

    I assume you're a bitter, fat fuck trying to justify your fat fuckiness.

  4. Re:Not so simple on Under Armour/Lockheed Suit Blamed For US Skating Performance · · Score: 1

    This isn't a problem: just give them all a multi-speed bike that has ALL the gears.

    Stop. Just stop. You clearly have no clue of what you're writing about.

  5. The Real Winner on Comcast To Buy Time Warner Cable In $44.2 Billion All-Stock Deal · · Score: 1
    Follow the money:

    The deal would be a coup for Time Warner Cable Chief Executive Rob Marcus, who just ascended to the top job on Jan 1. Filings show that the former mergers and acquisitions attorney is set to pocket $50 million if Time Warner Cable is sold and he is replaced while he is CEO.

  6. Re:SubjectsInCommentsAreStupid on South Carolina Education Committee Removes Evolution From Standards · · Score: 3, Interesting

    I'm an atheist, dumbass.

  7. Re:States Rights on South Carolina Education Committee Removes Evolution From Standards · · Score: 1

    Sure, no problemo. And when their high schools lose their accreditation and their students face not being able to get into real colleges, maybe that state's parents and non-dumbass citizens will finally rise up and put a stop to this nonsense.

  8. Re:SubjectsInCommentsAreStupid on South Carolina Education Committee Removes Evolution From Standards · · Score: 1

    The Big Bang thingie, too.

  9. Wacky Wozzy on Wozniak To Apple: Consider Building an Android Phone · · Score: 1

    I wonder what caused him to start smoking crack?

  10. Re:Prairie home companion. on NPR Labs is Working on Emergency Alerts for the Deaf (Video) · · Score: 1

    Speaking of which, I went to a concert by a Grammy award winning concert pianist... We're smarter than you.

    I also has been at concerts by Grammy Award-winning artists so I must be teh smarterer, too.

  11. Re:Enjoy your Death March on Ask Slashdot: What Do You Do If You're Given a Broken Project? · · Score: 1

    I was a hero.

    No. In business, as you found out, a hero ain't nothin' but a sandwich.

  12. Re:let's analyze this on Map of Publicly-Funded Creationism Teaching · · Score: 1

    Which of the 3 has more basis in logic and science?

    None because all of your premises are ridiculous jokes.

  13. Re:Not only no ... on Obama Announces Surveillance Reforms · · Score: 4, Insightful

    Which ruled out both McCain and Romney.

  14. Re:Creationists love Social Darwinisim on Creationism In Texas Public Schools · · Score: 0

    The country was founded by a bunch of fundy whack-jobs who were so obnoxious they got kicked out of Europe. The roots run deep.

  15. Re:An oldie from back ni the day... on Previously-Unseen Photos of Challenger Disaster Appear Online · · Score: 1

    Too soon? I heard Challenger jokes within a week...and that was before the web, kids.

  16. Re:I'll believe it when I see it on Apple Will Refund $32.5M To Settle In-App Purchase Complaints With FTC · · Score: 1

    Why would anyone playing a game, and presented with a choice like "do you want more energy for $0.99?", think that they are spending real USD money?

    Because they have a clue.

  17. Re:Cellphones during the movie was debated.... on Man Shot To Death For Texting During Movie · · Score: 1

    We dont debate the merits of cars when a drunk driver kills a family by doing stupid things with a car.

    No but we heavily regulate the cars and who can drive them.

  18. Re:Dead on Man Shot To Death For Texting During Movie · · Score: 1

    No. "Shot to death" lets you know that the victim was not just "shot". Got it?

  19. Re:The summary is wrong. on Man Shot To Death For Texting During Movie · · Score: 1

    Actually, throwing the popcorn was assault and probably battery (IANAL but was a juror in an assault and battery trial). Obviously, it should not have resulted in deadly force being used in response.

  20. Re:CNN says the old guy had the gun on him on Man Shot To Death For Texting During Movie · · Score: 1

    If Reeves were a crazed nut job, he would have not sat and removed his hands from the weapon and waited for the police.

    You did read the part where, "It happened that an off-duty deputy sheriff from Sumter County was among the 25 people theater at the Grove 16 complex. He rushed to the scene to make sure no more shots were fired and the shooter would stay put," right?

    I'm still voting for crazed nutjob.

    What color is the sky in your world wihere "assault with popcorn" justifies the use of deadly force?

  21. Re:There needs to be a completely different approa on Using Nanotechnology To Build Thinner, Stronger Condoms · · Score: 1

    The first and only time I did that, we ended up with twins. Seriously.

  22. Bumper Sticker on Carmakers Keep Data On Drivers' Locations From Navigation Systems · · Score: 1

    Companies should not keep private information about individuals.

    The government hates competition.

  23. Re:Obviousness on BlackBerry Sues iPhone Keyboard Maker Typo · · Score: 1

    That patent goes on and on about oval keys, which the Typo keyboard doesn't use. Hmm.

  24. Re:$300?!? on Linksys Resurrects WRT54G In a New Router · · Score: 1

    For $300 I can get a 2TB AirPort Time Capsule. I owned one of these blue routers way back when. Why would I want to shell out that much for one now?

  25. Re:Stupid article, stupid author on Justine Sacco, Internet Justice, and the Dangers of a Righteous Mob · · Score: 1

    Darn, I just used up my mod points. Well done.
