  1. Missing item from timeline... on Linux Archive, Now By Date · · Score: 5, Funny

    Maybe SCO can supply the exact date their code was stolen and added to Linux.

  2. Kill two birds with one stone... on Microsoft Plans IE Changes Due to Plugin Patent · · Score: 1

    Guess it's time to sue MS for infringing my "Bug riddled, insecure web browser" patent.

    Make some easy money and get an improved IE.

  3. Re:Lovely! on Mobile Linux Project In Ammo Canister · · Score: 0, Redundant

    Imagine using a Beowulf cluster of them.

  4. Re:Yes lyrics? on Sony's Linux DVR Can Record Two Weeks of TV · · Score: 1

    Or maybe the 'fish is really powered by a bunch of former Yes members on acid sitting at a computer.

  5. Re:deja vu on Microsoft Issues Five New Security Warnings · · Score: 5, Funny

    Linus, I need an exit... fast!

  6. Re:Hmmm.. on Testing The Right To Resell Downloaded Music · · Score: 1

    Uh... make that a $300 profit?!?! Must be someone from EFF bidding, since they know they are getting the money back anyway.

  7. Re:Hmmm.. on Testing The Right To Resell Downloaded Music · · Score: 1

    Ruin it? Damn, if you can turn a 99 cent song into a $30 profit, I'd expect the iTunes music store will be seeing downloads through the roof in the coming days.

  8. Re:Seriously? Arrest Microsoft, Inc. on Blaster Writer Caught · · Score: 1

    +1 ROTFLMAO (wish I had some real mod points)

    Just saw that episode the other night, so it really struck a chord. "Damn you Mogowians"

  9. Re:A network administrator? on Blaster Writer Caught · · Score: 1

    Guess you weren't a fan of "Seinfeld"

  10. Re:I doubt it... on New Low Bandwidth Denial of Service Attacks · · Score: 1

    Why not jumpstart the process and post your IP

  11. Now where did I put my tinfoil hat? on Razor Blade Games? · · Score: 1

    "Will the games industry go down the route of the razor manufacturers..."

    and secretly embed RFID tags in all the games? Um, no... not as far as you know.

  12. Re:What corporation? on Designing A Corporate Game Room? · · Score: 1

    Bingo! Maybe he should ask some dot bombers over at FC what was in their corporate game rooms. Might even be able to pick some stuff up at auction.

  13. Re:Doesn't take much time... on Light Bulb Replacements · · Score: 1

    Actually, I think the "longer lifetimes" part is the real reason they don't do this.

  14. Re:Ugh, "virii" on NZ Spammer Shutdown Makes Big Difference · · Score: 2, Funny

    Perhaps marklar should just call them marklar.

  15. Stock up? Bah! on Life Extending Chemical Is Found In Certain Red Wine · · Score: 2, Funny

    "Anyway, maybe it's time to stock up on the Pinot Noir."

    Screw that... lets start drinking (it's after 9am where I am, that's not too early is it?)

  16. Re:I was thinking about this the other day. on Gamer Sues MMORPG After Losing Items · · Score: 3, Funny

    "ya know, maybe there should be a mandatory server crash every once and awhile"

    Or they could just run the game on Windows servers.

  17. Ouch! on Netgear Routers DoS UWisc Time Server · · Score: 3, Funny

    I'd hate to be working in Netgear's accounts payable dept. when the bandwidth usage bill arrives.

  18. Cmon... Give Darl a break! on SCO Says IBM is Beating Up on Them · · Score: 1

    Poor Darl is just misunderstood that's all. I think what he meant to say is:

    "We have absolute direct knowledge of this. If you go behind the scenes, the attacks that we get that don't have IBM's name on them, underneath the covers, are coming from intelligent people who *really* understand the issues"

    "Oh, and regarding that leaked Powerpoint presentation showing proof of our intellectual property being illegally incorporated into Linux? Well, we've thought about the IBM lawsuit a bit more and would just like to say, um.... nevermind."

  19. Re:If one goes haywire, on Japanese Deploying Powered Exoskeletons for Elderly · · Score: 1

    I see a conflict of interest here. How can these robots help elderly people, when we all know that "...they eat old people's medicine for fuel"

  20. Re:Are there any good uses? on Gillette Pulls RFID Tags In UK Amid Protests · · Score: 1

    Well said (wish I had mod points)

    There *are* good uses for RFID, in particular managing inventory. It's a shame that some boneheaded retailer thought taking someones picture when they removed an item from the shelf was a good idea. If anything, the protests should be directed toward said retailer, not Gillette.

  21. Re:Forced Obsolescence on Standard Brewing For PC Card Replacement 'Newcard' · · Score: 1

    and of course... 640K is all anyone will ever need!

  22. Re:Headline on Standard Brewing For PC Card Replacement 'Newcard' · · Score: 2, Insightful

    I reread the headline several times, thinking "what the hell does brewing have to do with PC cards?"

    Mmmmmm..... Beeeerrrr.

  23. Re:No, we need to track politicians, dammit! on Gov't Proposes Massive Homeless Tracking System · · Score: 1

    Suppositories indeed... after all, they are all full of shit.

  24. Re:Forget it on Sony Shoots For 4-Filter CCD, 8 Megapixel Camera · · Score: 1

    Foveon's technology looks really good, although there is only one camera using it at the moment. Price is about the same, but doesn't include the lens.

    Hopefully someone will introduce a Foveon "consumer" model in the $500 range before too long.

  25. Re:Bizarre sequences of random numbers on LavaRnd: A Open Source Project for Truly Random Numbers · · Score: 2, Funny

    "idiot = i*i*dot = -dot"

    Wasn't that the inspiration for slashdot?

    "MinusDot??? That's a stupid name"
    "ok, how about Slashdot"
    "Yeah, much better."
