  1. SOD - Superstition Obfuscation Demagoguery on Dangerous Java Flaw Threatens 'Virtually Everything' · · Score: 2, Funny

    Friday the 13th is the new April Fool's Day!

  2. SciLab on 29 Vector Drawing Programs · · Score: 1
  3. I must be gettin' old... on Secure, Portable, Virtual Privacy Machine · · Score: 4, Funny

    I read...
    Secure, Portable, Virtual Piracy Machine

  4. journalism? on Arrest in Cisco Code Theft · · Score: 1

    The article makes it seem like this source code is the magic key that holds the whole internet together. Is the press really doing its job by scaring the masses into believing this idea? Is it too much to ask that they have higher standards in writing pieces on comlex subjects?

  5. Re:pathetic on Night Goggles Capture Spider-Man Movie Bootlegger · · Score: 2, Funny

    The projectionist can usually be found splicing in frames of hard-core pornography and/or spanking it.

    IEEE Spectrum
    National Geographic
    Scientific American
    Atlantic Monthly
    Playboy
    Zymurgy

  7. Re:Awesome... on Forward This Article And Get Paid $203.15 · · Score: 1

    I do not think it means what you think it means.

  8. US government is out of control on Microsoft Patents The Body Bus · · Score: 1

    We're in some seriously deep fucking doo-doo if this is the kind of blanket freedom a corporation gets while individual liberties are trampled daily.

    The revolution will not be patented.

  9. coffin cam on Your Data and Cyber Business After You're Gone · · Score: 1

    Wireless Coffin Cam...the best way for a person to be able to post up-to-date personal information after death!

    Seriously, seems like the only parties that might be interested in your lifelong data after you die would be creditors looking for owed money.

  10. Atari 1040ST on Microsoft Receives Patent For Double-Click · · Score: 2, Informative

    I was 11 years old and discovered WTF a "double click" was by reading the F'ing manual. Microsoft was not involved...or were they? What is this horseshit?

  11. Let the candidates count their own damn votes... on NYT Calls For Open-Source Election Machines · · Score: 0, Flamebait

    WTF is the problem? Let Bush count his votes and Kerry count his...whoever gets the higher number of votes wins! Yay! Even with dead people and Martians voting for Bush, there's no way he can count past his toes and fingers.

  12. Forget IBM on IBM Snags Leading Indian Outsourcing Firm · · Score: 1

    When will the really good jobs be outsourced?
    You know...the Jerry Springer wenches, Girls Gone Wild hostesses or Personal Injury lawyers.
    Oh the humanity! We might actually have to use our brains to invent something new to do for a living!

  13. Re:But... on Train Your Own Replacement · · Score: 1

    so...what does that say about foreign medical training?

  14. Episode III on Star Wars Episode 3 Release Date Announced · · Score: 1

    Yoda's Schlong
    Long ago, in a galaxy far away...a little green man goes through his 450 year mid-life crisis and dry-humps everything in sight.
    Hilarity ensues.

  15. PHB on Why PHBs Fear Linux · · Score: 2, Funny

    Pretty Hot Babe

    Pipe-wielding Hoard of Baboons

    Pierced Head Banger

    Packed Hand Brush

    Pickled Hypothalamus Borsht

    Oh, there are so many more! Somebody Please put a Head in my Bullet!

  16. experience is... on The Worst Development Job You've Ever Had? · · Score: 1
    Experience is something you get after you need it.

    I don't know the source of that quote, but that about sums up my professional life as an engineer in the world of software/hardware integration testing...aka SHIT. Worst Development Job: Testing avionics software in the middle of the night on a freaking weekend while suffering heart palpitations from drinking too much RedBull. Have fun on your next flight!

  17. Bass Ackwards on The Paradox of Choice · · Score: 1

    What the hell is wrong with these people? Too many choices a problem? You have got to be kidding me! Life is choice, make a freaking decision and move on!

  18. Re:Atari TOS/GEM - and Sundog on A History of Every GUI Ever · · Score: 1

    SunDog dude was the shit...still makes SimCity look cheesy.

  19. whodunnit? on NASA Finds Critical Assembly Fault in Shuttle · · Score: 1

    NASA is so anal retentive, they probably have a log book somewhere that describes the who, what, when, where and why this particular part was installed backwards. I bet whoever it was, wrote a memo about it that either got ignored or put in the wait-til-it-blows-up-to-ask-these-questions pile.

  20. Re:Biometrics on it's own is weak authentication on Users feel Password Rage · · Score: 1

    The layered approach...works for cold weather too!

  21. Re:Maybe Tyler Durden... on Generation Wrecked · · Score: 1

    ...you are not your fucking retirement account...

  22. Modular Robotics on Learning Autonomic Robots · · Score: 2, Interesting

    The article in this month's IEEE Spectrum magazine, experimentation with modular robotics, seems more worthy of the label "ground-breaking."

  23. Re:In the end, are people that creative? on CG Idols - Human Not Required · · Score: 1

    Yes, people are that creative...we invented God, didn't we?

  24. Re:unmanned missions save money on Goldin to Retire from NASA · · Score: 1

    True, but people will pay money to go on space joy-rides. I think the Russians have the right idea in capitalizing on the fledgling space tourism industry. If Nasa or possibly a private company could get the cost of a space joy-ride down to the equivalent of a long distance international trip, I think many people would seriously consider spending the money. Where people spend money, there's got to be a way to make money.

  25. riaa is listening on RIAA to DoS Pirates? · · Score: 1

    Call me paranoid, but I think the riaa is making these ridiculous statements to see what the reaction is from various parts of the net before making their real move. Hey riaatards! Kiss my ass!

    BTW: Ramsey Electronics has a kit for you to build that will hook up to your computer and broadcast your MP3's for you! Enjoy!
