  1. Re:55%, not 110 proof on The World's Strongest, Most Expensive Beer Served Inside a Squirrel · · Score: 1

    It makes it harder for the less-educated (i.e. typical beer drinkers) to figure out how to make this stuff cheaply. Drink half your bud, then refill with Everclear. Stuffing it in your grandmothers freeze-dried poodle is optional.

  2. 90% of ads on Contextual Ads Based On Images · · Score: 1

    Based on normal browser usage, 90% of the ads will be for viagra and it's herbal relatives.

    I am hopeful that your consumption of bovine expellent will cause a terminal condition.

    Wishing you a wonderful trip to the warmest depths of an ice free land of universal repentance.

  4. Why the stuffed animals on The World's Strongest, Most Expensive Beer Served Inside a Squirrel · · Score: 2, Interesting

    Why do they need to include the stuffed animals. Just drink enough of this beer, and you will see all sorts of things without having to pay the outrageous price.

    And, what do you do with all the embalmed animals once you have drained them? You're drunk, there's a bunch of other drunk guys with you, there's a pile of fuzzy dead animals laying around. It all sounds like a perfect setting for something that's going to show up on COPS.

    Evidence For 200-Year-Old Comet Impact On Neptune

    I thought most comets were much older than 200 years. How does a comet form, and crash, in a mere 200 years?

  6. Re:Voyager 2? on Evidence For 200-Year-Old Comet Impact On Neptune · · Score: 1

    Maybe they had lights attached to the probe, like you had with old movie cameras.

  7. unfair on Swedish Pirate Party Launches ISP · · Score: 1

    Those pirates have easy access to the seas, which means they have access to free sharks, and everyone knows that you need shark mounted lasers to deal with fiber optic cables, so they are getting free sharks while the rest of the ISP's have to buy them.

  8. Shark handlers on Warships May Get Lasers For Close-In Defense · · Score: 0, Redundant

    Does the price include the shark handlers?

  9. Another problem on Criminal Photoshops Himself Into Charity Photos In Bid For Leniency · · Score: 1

    They should really avoid holding it that way.

    OK, try to think of something besides porn.... Nope, not gonna happen.

  12. Re:Thank you on Windows vs. Ubuntu — Dell's Verdict · · Score: 1

    I can't install the language patch (click on it in Opera, garbage on my screen. right click and save as, now I have it saved but how to install it??)

    What language patch?

    I can't use bittorrent, (can't install wine because I don't know how to install a package handler because of the above problem)

    Why would you install Windows software when you can install equivalent Linux software instead?

    Some people can write Fortran code in any language. Apparently this person expects to be able to run Windows software in any OS. Probably also complains that he can't get Word-98 to install on his Nintendo 64. You'll never be able to explain the problems to them, because they'll just insist "but it works in Windows!"

    Shouldn't he now be called "The artist formally known as the artist formally known as prince"?

  14. Re:Symbols in the digital age on India's New Rupee Symbol Won't Show On Computers · · Score: 1

    Those computer manufacturers don't seem to care about making sure things are readable. When I changed the font size on my computer to one point, it became unreadable! I called the manufacturer to complain, and all they gave me was some techno-babble and refused to fix this! We need to create a class action suit and insist that they fix their machines so that a one point font works properly!

  15. Re:counterfeiters on India's New Rupee Symbol Won't Show On Computers · · Score: 1

    Aaack! You have discovered part of India's anti-counterfeiting plan. As soon as the counterfeiters start using the new symbol, they plan on changing it again. You'll be able to tell who is counterfeiting, because they will be the only ones using the current symbol.

    OK, I must be a bit off on my symbols. Does that symbol ("") represent someones butt, breast, head, or claw?

  21. More creative accounting on Don't Stop File-Sharing, Says Former Pink Floyd Manager · · Score: 2, Insightful

    It might just be more creative accounting on their part. They can apply the costs of looking for these "pirates" against the artists earnings, and apply any money collected to their own pockets. They get to screw both the artists and the pirates, while getting more wealth.

  22. 3d viewing on PS3 To Gain Support For 3-D Movies On Blu-Ray and YouTube · · Score: 1

    Sony also updated its PS3 Terms of Service to warn against too much 3-D viewing.

    Good thing we aren't exposed to 3D that often. It's not like you could look out your window, and *bampf* everything is in 3D.

    This whole article is just a pack of lies, yet somehow I trust the results.

  24. Re:The new designs use the old waste on Nuclear Power Could See a Revival · · Score: 1

    By some people's estimates we have about two centuries worth of fuel for the energy needs of the entire United States just in our existing stockpiles of nuclear waste.

    Back in the 70's, we were taught that there was only 10 years worth of oil left in the world. I hope that the powers that be discover something to replace oil before that time runs out.

    Remaining fuel estimates are greatly influenced by whatever agenda is favored by whoever is in power at the time, and haven't been worth crap in the real world. What I'd like to see is a bit more diversity in type created (gas, electricity, coal, etc.) and in usage (gas cars, electric cars, hydrogen cars, etc). However the type of fuel being used is more often based on what is cheapest at that moment, than on any future planning.

  25. Re:If they crashed, it's user error anyhow. on Toyota Sudden Acceleration Is Driver Error · · Score: 1

    So, you're saying that you'd prefer to continue operating while accelerating at maximum rate because you don't thing shifting into neutral will make the brake pedal work??? You'd rather slam into the leading car at 90 miles an hour instead of 40? Is that how you handle most stop signs? "I don't know if my brake will work here, so I'll just stomp on the accelerator pedal!" I hope I never get in front of you.

    Could someone come up with a car analogy for me?
