  1. home on Microsoft Says H-1B Workers Among Those Losing Jobs · · Score: 1

    We do need to keep our eyes toward home first. In my opinion, all lay offs should begin overseas before hitting home.

  2. Re:To bring it back to science on Stand-Up Comic Makes Science Funny · · Score: 1

    xKCD ftw.

  3. argh on Apple Introduces "MacBook Wheel" · · Score: 1

    For a second, I thought it was April Fools Day. Screw you, Slashdot, for making me think spring was here!

  4. Re:Dupe, on Is the Gaming PC Dead? · · Score: 1

    Not even Crysis requires 4 GPUs to run properly. Going into that echelon isn't required for PC gaming by any stretch.

  5. Re:Dupe, on Is the Gaming PC Dead? · · Score: 1

    Rahul Sood's assertion is both surprising and inept. The super-high end PC market has always been a niche market and probably always will be. This does not mark an end to PC gaming nor a decline in its popularity.

    lineman60 hit it right in saying, "Every time someone needs to sell an issue of something. they say PC gaming is dead." I'm just disappointed to see this come from the founder of Voodoo PC.

  6. ha on Jobs Not Giving This Year's Macworld Keynote · · Score: 1

    Your lord has forsaken you. Please drink the kool-aid.

  7. yes? on Black Hole At Center of Milky Way Confirmed · · Score: 1

    This is similar to how stars may form around a black hole as well, no?

  8. What Really Matters on Obama's "ZuneGate" · · Score: 1

    Typical Apple Cultists: The economy is in the crapper and multiple wars are looming over our heads and these sheeple are groaning over what freaking media player President Elect Obama uses.

  9. Re:Enough jokes about it going from 1 to 3 people. on IPv6 Adoption Up 300 Percent Over 2 Years · · Score: 1

    I had to get mine in. I'm done now. I also, in seriousness, want the raw numbers.

  10. oooo on IPv6 Adoption Up 300 Percent Over 2 Years · · Score: 0, Redundant

    I know I'm gong to be modded down for this crack, but...

    Wow! It went from one user to three!

  11. when now? on Battlestar Galactica Gets Spinoff Prequel Series · · Score: 1

    Define "recently." We've been hearing about Caprica for a year now. Anywho, it should be interesting.

  12. d'oh on Significant Russian Attack On US Military Networks · · Score: 1

    This just proves that mission critical operations and life-or-death reliance should not co-exist with networking.

  13. An Old Republic Lighter on The Science of the Lightsaber · · Score: 1

    It's worth the picture alone.

  14. Use The Force on LHC Forces Bookmaker To Lower Odds On the Existence of God · · Score: 1

    The God Particle...?

    ummm... forcon? jedon? sithon? Come on, help me out here.

  15. ergh on Critical Vulnerability In Adobe Reader · · Score: 1

    "Critical Vulnerability In Adobe Reader" Yeah it's called horrible, horrible programming.

  16. One Core Per Thread on Windows 7 To Be 256-Core Aware · · Score: 1

    In time, "I think we can all agree, 256 cores is enough for anybody." is going to be mentioned in line with, "640K ought to be enough for anybody." This will, of course, come about when we start having a core for each thread.

  17. Re:No, I do not understand the concept of sarcasm. on Streaming Election Night Broadcast TV? · · Score: 1

    The more basely humorous anagrams of Sarah Palin:

    Anal Has Rip
    A Plain Rash
    Ah Liars Nap

  18. New slogan: WWRFD? on Yahoo Changes User Profiles, To Massive Outrage · · Score: 1

    Outrage? Really? sarcasm{Oh dear god no, they lost their age, gender and three "cool links".}

    Really now, come on. Seriously.

    Where's Red Foreman when you need him?

  19. Re:What other manure piles should we avoid? on Michael Robertson Sued Over Missing Linspire Cash · · Score: 1

    Robertson was behind the original mp3.com, founded in 1997, which had an immense amount of independent music for free on it. I miss that site. He screwed it up in 2000 with my.mp3.com, a service in which users could register their CD collection and then stream it from the mp3.com servers from mp3s the site itself had ripped and stored. They were financially eviscerated via lawsuits and sold off to Vivendi Universal in 2001. Vivendi just couldn't make it work and dismantled the site entirely. The whole collection of independent music was tanked and the site was sold off to CNet in 2003. It is now a shadow of what it used to be.

  20. umm on Greek Hackers Target CERN's LHC · · Score: 1

    Will someone please tell me why a system used to control the LHC is connected to the outside world?

    "While we wait for it to warm up, lets raid Molten Core!"

  21. I can't do this all on my own. on Using Magnets To Turn Off the Brain's Speech Center · · Score: 1

    Hey its like the musical episode of Scrubs!

  22. You mean, if they weren't washed up? on Metallica May Follow In Footsteps of Radiohead, NIN · · Score: 1

    I wouldn't buy a Metallica album no matter what their views. They've been watered down shite after The Black Album (and some would argue after '...And Justice For All'). That being said, however, I think anyone can come back from the Dark Side, so their change of heart (or shifting wallet eyes) is valid enough for me.

  23. Re:Nice, but.... on Jack Thompson Served With Order to Show Cause · · Score: 1

    I second that.

  24. Re:hmmm... on Command Line Life Partner Wanted · · Score: 1

    You'd be surprised.

  25. masonry! on Exploit Found to Brick Most HP and Compaq Laptops · · Score: 1

    Popular buzz word of late-2007 (and likely into 2008): brick.
    Everything is "bricking" your devices these days.
