  1. Re:Hurrah? on Feature-Rich FreeBSD 10 Alpha Released · · Score: 1

    It is a refreshing change from people posting pop culture references just for a laugh. I doubt it will last. All those moments will be lost in time, tike tears in rain.

  2. Deliverance on Tooth Cavities May Protect Against Cancer · · Score: 2

    The hill folk in Deliverance were toothless and playing banjos. Maybe country music prevents cancer.

  3. Re:technocracy - the end of a monetary system? on 45% of U.S. Jobs Vulnerable To Automation · · Score: 1

    ...pre-determined rations based on the AI computations.

    Meat-bag #328819530, enjoy your kibble.

  4. Overkill on It Takes 2.99 Gigajoules To Vaporize a Human Body · · Score: 2

    Vaporization isn't needed to kill. I assume that's what death rays are all about. I suppose it would take a little extra to make the remains difficult to identify. If you've gone the death ray route, using lots of power is part of the "send a message" image thing anyway. For an eco-friendly kill, it is still best to club the victim and let hungry pigs dispose of the corpse.

  5. Re:5% on The Post-Lecture Classroom · · Score: 2

    Is that 5% increase additive or multiplicative?

    I don't know, the dog ate my videotape.

  6. Smell the Onion on Linux 3.12 Codenamed "Suicidal Squirrel" · · Score: 2

    Onion Headline from 2002: "Road-Kill Squirrel Remembered as Frantic, Indecisive"

  7. Wipe the gravy from your face. on Microsoft Botches More Patches In Latest Automatic Update · · Score: 4, Funny

    Microsoft just went bukkake on its customers.

  8. Re:I wonder if they could make 50tb drives today? on Seagate's Shingled Magnetic Recording Tech Boosts HDD Capacities to 5TB and Up · · Score: 1

    ...they already have the technology to make 50 or 100 tb drives

    Stored in a secret Area 51 bunker staffed by Brent Spiner.

  9. Re:Hmmmm .... on The iPhone 5S Hasn't Been Officially Announced, Already Has Line · · Score: 2

    WTF does that even mean?

    It means the submitter is a biased click whore.

  10. Re:Say Herro To Ma Rittle Frond on Apple Sued For Dividing Final Season of Breaking Bad Into Two On iTunes · · Score: 1

    He bagged CatWoman?

    Spoiler alert!

  11. Hey Bud! on Researcher Spots a Drug Buy In Bitcoin's Blockchain · · Score: 4, Funny

    All I need are some tasty waves, a cool buzz, anonymous currency and I'm fine. -- Jeff Spicoli

  12. Re:Lacking faith in the currency? on Bitcoin Kiosks Coming To 5 Canadian Cities · · Score: 2

    And because they take cash anonymously, they will probably run into government harassment in the name of money laundering. I noticed bitinstant stopped taking money anonymously citing government pressure.

  13. Re:Where'd all the "BOOOOSH!" wackos go? on NSA Can Spy On Data From Smart Phones, Including Blackberry · · Score: 2

    Are you that blinded by your partisanship or are you just a retard?

    The two often go hand in hand.

  14. Re:proving parent right... on Indiana Man Gets 8 Months For Teaching How To Beat Polygraph Tests · · Score: 3, Funny

    The same thing goes for smoke shops.

    For all your gift and lifestyle accessory needs.

  15. Valid Criticism on Nokia Insider On Why It Failed and Why Apple Could Be Next · · Score: 1

    "...the key word is a sense of urgency."

    Apple's development pace has always been glacial, but since 2012 it seems to have slowed even more. Samsung's new watch shows what can go wrong when you rush a product, but there is a happy medium between those two extremes. I'm hopeful Apple's recent comatose posture stems more from management shuffle than a fundamental limitation on capability or worse, a deliberate choice.

  16. Re:Kinda batshit of the NRA on NRA Joins ACLU Lawsuit Against NSA · · Score: 2, Funny

    I serandpity the fool!

  17. NRA spokeman quote on NRA Joins ACLU Lawsuit Against NSA · · Score: 2

    Pew! Pew! Pew!

  18. Kitchen Sink with a Wristband on Samsung Unveils Galaxy Gear Smartwatch · · Score: 4, Insightful

    Samsung should have contemplated this longer before shoving it out the door. Deliver useful things a smartphone can't and nothing more then you'll have better battery life and something stylish instead of that bulky thing.

  19. Re:NPR is banging the drums for war... on US and Israel Test Missile As Syria War Tensions Rise · · Score: 3, Insightful

    You'll note that this term was never used against people who disagreed with wars in Afghanistan or Iraq...

    Yeah, they were called traitors by the same right wing propaganda outlets you get your talking points from. Can you be anymore obvious?

  20. Re:Can some one please explain? on Open-Source Python Code Shows Lowest Defect Density · · Score: 1

    What is Coverity Scan service? It is a product they hope to sell you. Does advertising work? It just did!

  21. Re: Breaking the Ice on How Gen Y Should Talk To Old People At Work · · Score: 2

    It's a pop culture two-fer. The Simpsons may be before some younger people's time and I hear the kids today like the Breaking Bad.

  22. Breaking the Ice on How Gen Y Should Talk To Old People At Work · · Score: 5, Funny

    Complement the onion on their belt. Once you have their trust, take them out Old Yeller style.

  23. Re:remorse? on AT&T Maintains Call Database For the DEA Going Back To 1987 · · Score: 2, Insightful

    Not even a little bit. Do you imagine Ron Paul would somehow have changed any of this?

  24. Re:WHY ONE MUST on Egyptian Authorities Detain French "Spy" Bird Found With Tracker · · Score: 1

    I think it was the coconut it was transporting that gave the bird away.

  25. Framing on For Education, Why TI-83 > iPad · · Score: 4, Funny

    "The iPad is among the recent panaceas being peddled to schools..."

    Now get the new and improved panacea that I personally endorse. That other panacea is crap.
