  1. You mean... on 10 Years of Beowulf Clustering · · Score: 1

    ...the South Park episode?

  2. Dangers of the internet? on Spammer Apologizes · · Score: 0, Redundant

    What is this guy going to say? "Now that I can't make money off the internet you shouldn't go on it because it's... DANGEROUS"?

  3. Re:I'm just waiting... on Build Your Own Monowheel · · Score: 1

    Monowheel!
    Monowheel!
    Monowheel!
    Mono... D'oh!

  4. Re:AllOfMP3 Top Ten on Russian Music Site Offering Legal Songs By The MB · · Score: 1

    Slashdot, the home of people without a sense of humor.

    I'm Russian and I found that list hillarious. Quit getting offended over everything...

  5. Opera simply rocks on Opera Browser Creators Planning IPO · · Score: 1

    I don't know whether I'd go and buy their stock but the web browser is amazing.

  6. Old Zaporozhets Joke on Worst Cars Of All Time Rated · · Score: 1

    The czar calls an American, a German and a Russian and tells them to bring their favourite cars to him. So the American brings a Chrysler, the German brings a Mercedes and the Russian brings a Zaporozhets.

    The czar tells them: drive through that lake of shit. So the American gets in his chrysler, gets 10 meters out and sinks into the shit lake and drowns. The German drives out, sinks after driving 15 meters. The Russian gets in his car, drives across the whole lake and back.

    The czar asks, "How did you manage that?"

    The Russian replies "Shit doesn't sink in shit."

  7. Monopoly? on Microsoft at the Tipover Point · · Score: 1, Insightful

    So it's not much of a monopoly is it?

  8. Re:Parental Control on Looking at Longhorn · · Score: -1, Troll

    You'de be amazed how intelligent the remarksof a 5year old can be if he is forced to find his own words.

    You'd be amazed at how intelligent the remarks of a 5 year old can be when he sees the goatse man.

    Quite often, he's capable of handling his big sister better than I ever could !

    Then you are what we call a "bad parent"...

  9. Erm... on Patrick Volkerding Interviewed by The Age · · Score: 1, Flamebait

    While most other commercial Linux distributions have problems balancing the books, Volkerding hasn't had to worry since he decided in 1994 that the only way to keep the project going was to find some way to fund it.

    No need to worry since all he needs to do is find some way to fund it? Doesn't that apply for almost ANY business model? I think that the person who wrote this article is a freakin' moron...

  10. Well... on Help wanted: CTO at Warner Music. · · Score: 1

    How many job descriptions include the phrase "Warfare"?

    Possibly when you join the Army? Hmmm... Easier to join too!

  11. I have RCN in the Boston area on 3 Megabit Cable Modems, Anyone? · · Score: 1

    And they rule! Whenever we drive by RCN trucks we yell "RCN RULES!"... I think we just kinda scare them though...

  12. Black Panthers on Einstein's 1,427-Page F.B.I. File · · Score: 1

    Erm, the Black Panthers should not be put in the same cattegory as Martin Luther King or the Gay Activists... That's just wrong, do you know what the Panthers really stood for?

  13. Re:DeNiro not serious? on Review: Showtime · · Score: 1

    Men of Honour was a serious movie?

  14. Re:ChangeLog got hacked? on 2.5.4 Kernel Out · · Score: 1

    Great... pizda == cunt...

    I'm laughing, no really, deep down inside... oh no... that was heartburn.

    I know this is flamebait but: holy fuck! That is the most irrelevant (sp?) post I have ever seen!

    Really, if you are trully Russian you would not find that funny at all, although I'm guessing you're Ukranian or some shit trying to pass up as Russian!

  15. Well... on AOL/TW Plans for $230 Monthly Cable Bill · · Score: 1

    My ISP is also my cable TV and phone service provider... Ofcourse we pay about $100/month for this (we get about 5 HBO channels and 2 Cinemaxes along with the basic cable channels)...

    Fortunately not many people have this ISP in my area so the cable modem speeds are pretty high.

    But anyway, I think that it's great that we only have to pay one bill instead of three!

  16. Do you think... on How Google Saved USENET · · Score: 0, Funny

    they recovered the first post ever?

  17. Did anyone else... on The LSB Delivers Again · · Score: 1, Funny

    first read that as "The LSD Delivers Again"?

    I was a bit confused there for a second!

  18. Let me tell you... on U.S. Penalizes Ukraine for Abetting 'Piracy' · · Score: 2, Insightful

    Ukraine has it worse with computers than does Russia. And back in Russia things are really bad with computers. Software piracy is not as big an issue in Ukraine because well... not too many people own computers, and those that do probably own old ones.

    Not saying that piracy isn't wrong but come on! Ukraine? That's just rediculous!

  19. Re:IS this really sensible ? on Non-commercial Manned Rocket Test (pre1) · · Score: 1

    If this guy can get into space I think that excludes him from the 'average joe sixpacks' category;)

  20. This might be a bit OT on Integrated Water-Cooled Case · · Score: 1

    ...but I want to get into overclocking.

    Is there an easy to read intro guide (just covering the ideas of overclocking and cooling) somewhere online?

    Also, is using watercooling really safe?

  21. Re:Star Wars Teaser? on Review: Monsters, Inc. · · Score: 1

    Ahh OK, I got it, next weekend I might check out that restaurant with my friends, thanks.

  22. Pinkwater? Asimov? on Writers Who Will Stand the Test of Time? · · Score: 1

    Daniel Pinkwater and Isaac Asimov deserve to be on the list! Two amazing writers!

  23. Re:Star Wars Teaser? on Review: Monsters, Inc. · · Score: 1

    Got no car, plus that's where a lot of us Russians hang out... It's mostly not about the movies.

    Which one is Chestnut Hill Ave.? I can't think of it off the top of my head.

  24. Re:Star Wars Teaser? on Review: Monsters, Inc. · · Score: 1

    Hmmm... yea I was at Cleveland Circle (Brookline or Brighton) last night chilling with my friends... I'm pretty sure Monsters, Inc. wasn't playing. Ofcourse I'm not a big fan of cartoons late at night so I wasn't looking for it.


    I saw them selling Shrek on VHS at CVS though!

  25. WINE? on Mandrake Linux Gamer Edition · · Score: 1

    Oh God! Let us all pray! WINE is great for some stuff but with certain games it just doesn't work or works poorly.

    Oh well, I'll go back to `wine /windows/Unreal/system/unreal.exe` when I can get it to run in full screen mode!
