  1. As much as my doctor would advise against it, I'd take Taco Bell's content over Bell Canada's content any day...

  2. NEWSFLASH on At Black Hat: Square Reader To Credit Card Skimmer In 10 Minutes · · Score: 1

    Machine designed to read credit cards hacked to read credit cards. Story at 11.

  3. Ruby?? on Linux and Multiple Internet Uplinks: a New Tool · · Score: 4, Insightful

    I do not want to install Ruby on my firewall/gateway along with all of its douchebaggy dependencies and gems/crystals/unicorns/whatever-the-fuck-they're-called. This is networking, not some hipster web 2.0 app.

  4. Awesome... on Australian Police Deploy 3D Crime Scene Scanner · · Score: 1

    The device looks great. Can't wait until they release a version for heterosexual males...

  5. It's simple.... on CES 2014: Stefan Lindsay Demonstrates the gTar (Video) · · Score: 1

    iPhone + reTard = gTar

  6. What a shit article... on The Physics Behind Waterslides · · Score: 1

    Seriously, can be shortened to: Slide uses gravity. Water lubricates. Kindergarten science really.

    Also, Mr. Hunter sounds like a real dick:

    "I'm not going to take riders into a short-radius curve right away"
    "I'm constantly thinking about the depth of water in every part of the ride"

    The constant use of "I" makes one wonder:

    1 - Is this a one-man show?
    2 - If not, what the fuck do the rest of the employees do since Mr. Hunter makes it sound like he does ALL THE WORK.

  7. Carnivorous Worms... on Why Worms In the Toilet Might Be a Good Idea · · Score: 2

    Just a matter of time before the worms feed on enough blood-infested stool from anal fissures and hemorrhoids to turn carnivorous. Queue real-life Ghoulies II re-enactment..

  8. Re:Beef jerky lolwut? on With Euro Zone Problems, Bitcoin Experiencing Boost In Legitimacy · · Score: 1

    We don't have time for Starbucks...

  9. Awesome... maybe... on Dashboard Avatar To Replace Car Owner's Manuals · · Score: 1

    Enter car, press START button. COMPUTER FAULT light comes on.

    YOU: Computer, explain "Computer Fault" light.

    COMPUTER: *crickets*

    YOU: Computer, unlock glove compartment so I can read printed manual.

    COMPUTER: *crickets*

    YOU: Ah fuck it. I'm gonna bike to work.

  10. Obligatory TF2 Reference on Obama: 'We Don't Have Enough Engineers' · · Score: 1

    Of course we have plenty of Engineers. It's just that they keep getting picked off by those damn snipers while trying to build forward base Sentry Guns.

  11. Paper was their second choice on State of Alaska Prints Out Palin's E-Mails; Online Distribution 'Impractical' · · Score: 1

    It seems that a shortage in stone tablets and required etchers resulted in them having to painstakingly print out all the emails.

  12. Drafting a constitution? on Hungary Uses iPad To Draft New Constitution · · Score: 5, Funny

    There's an app for that....

  13. Jailbreak DOES work on iPad iOS 3.2.1 on Browser-Based Jailbreak For iPhone 4 Released · · Score: 1

    I beg to differ, but my iOS 3.2.1 iPad was jailbroken within 10 minutes of the jailbreak release.

  14. Not really an exploit? on Mass Website Hack Compromises 200,000 Sites · · Score: 1
    From the article:

    "Various exploits are used in the ASP attacks, where the phpBB ones rely on social engineering"

    I'm a little confused here - how can it be "social engineering" when the javascript required to create the porn/codec popup had to be inserted somehow?
  15. Mistake in subject.... on Engineered Mosquitoes Could Wipe Out Dengue Fever · · Score: 3, Funny

    "Engineered Mosquitoes Could Wipe Out Human Race"

    There... fixed that for ya. Now queue overlord-welcoming comments....

  16. A frickin' BEAR?? on "Bear" Robot to Rescue Wounded Troops · · Score: 1

    Why are these IDIOTS putting so much stress on the "bear" aspect of it? OK.. we get it.. it's a acronym... Don't feed me bullshit about the "human" touch aspect of it. A wounded soldier is not going to give a flying fuck if he's being rescued by a robot that looks like a bear or by a robot that looks like the mars rover - he's too busy squirming in pain and worrying about if he's going to live..

  17. Nonsense! on Canadians Pay Extra For Their Wireless Hardware · · Score: 5, Interesting

    I don't know what the author is rambling on about.. I just bought a Fido phone (Siemens A56) with 3 months of service for $75 CDN.

    The monthly plan is $25/month = 100 weekday minutes plus 1000 weekend/evening minutes AND all Fido-to-Fido calls and SMS are free. That's $19 USD per month.. AND a free phone.

    And to top it all off, Fido subsidizes all their handsets AND you're never locked into any contract - it's all on a monthly basis. No complaints here when it comes to cell phone prices or cell phone plans in Canada..

    - One Happy Fido Customer.

    DUDE, you're getting a boner.

  19. Turning Sun into another failure.. on Is IBM on a Strategic Path to Control Java? · · Score: 2, Insightful


    If IBM buys Sun and applies its marketing 'EXPERTISE', then we're going
    to see the demise of yet another product that 'could have been'. Think OS/2...

    As much great technology that comes out of IBM, they always screw it up when
    it comes to marketing..

  20. Play fair... on Bad Review for the Zaurus · · Score: 1, Insightful


    This guys sounds like he has some sort of chip on his shoulder. Just say that
    you had problems synchronizing, don't go on bashing the company with
    comments like "they obviously don't care about syncing". It's because of
    idiots like this guy that a lot of the smaller companies have problems getting
    market share..

    If this was a Microsoft product, he would have been ALL OVER IT,
    touting 101 advantages and ignoring any bugs, saying "Well I'm sure Microsoft
    will have these fixed for the next version..."

    *SIGH*

  21. Confusion.... on 3-D Monitors From Actual Depth · · Score: 1


    This is going to wreck havoc and cause major confusion for the clean-freeks between
    us... Imagine trying to clean those nasty fingerprints in 3D..

    I wonder what the moiré patterns caused by fingerprints would look like on
    this screen..

  22. When will they learn? on Sony Intentionally Crashes Customers' Computers · · Score: 1


    This is yet another example of how the music industry is just
    trying to grasp anything that would limit their so-called losses
    due to digital music piracy.

    They really should take a clue from the software protection world
    and just give up. We've been through hardware dongles, serial keys,
    scratched CD tracks.. none have worked.

    Remember: It just takes 1 person with a decent sound card (A/D)
    to capture the analog signal (from a 'regular' CD player), and there
    you have your MP3, ready for your favorite P2P software. ;)

  23. Imagine the opportunities... on Browser Becomes Billboard · · Score: 5, Funny


    I just __CAN'T__ wait to see the latest pr0n ads..
    Wonder what we'll be clicking on to close the windows?

    Gives a whole new meaning to 'pop-ups'.

  24. And in other news.... on nVidia/AMD Merger Announced · · Score: 2, Funny


    Netscape announces its merger with Yahoo..

    The new company will be headquartered in Israel and is expected to change its
    name to Netanyahu within the next few weeks.

  25. IDS for IP over Avian Carrier on IP Replaces Avian Carriers · · Score: 1

    I would be interested in developing a Snort module for IP over AC. It could use packet coloring to distinguish between legit and non-legit 'packets'. Maybe some sophisticated fingerprinting techniques using header and payload info...
