  1. What about PCBs? on Legacy-Free PCs · · Score: 2, Funny

    Aren't they, like, 30 years old? Can we REALLY do without those? ;)

  2. In other news. . . on Former Intel Employee 'Disappeared' by U.S. · · Score: 1

    A fire at the Capital's web hosting facility building prompts Reichschancellor Ashcroft to arrest hundreds of citizens without charges. Some are being deported, while others are being relocated to "Ghettos" without internet connections or access to compilers or interpreters. . .

  3. Hedgehog Power Source on A New Spin On Physical Phenomena · · Score: 1
    Wasn't there a Sonic SpinBall for SegaCD?

    Back on topic, this is really neat. I hope it turns out to be a fruitful advance, and not just a case of the balls being influenced by the breeze from the cooling fan on the DC generator in the lab. :)

    The monkeys! They aer flying out of my butt!

    Seriously, tho, can't discontinue the GPL version of anything. That's like /.'ing Freenet.

  6. I was hoping for a new monster. . . on Peter Jackson remaking King Kong · · Score: 1
    What's that coming up out of the sea?

    It looks like a giant lizard!!!

    We are committed to preventing delivery of any spam (except ours) to your inbox, in an effort to prevent you from being harrassed by anyone (except us) trying to send you unwanted advertising (i.e. not ours).

    Hmmm. No thanks.

  12. Actually, it's called GNU/Shakespeare. . . on Linux Enhances Shakespeare · · Score: 0

    I suppose you could also use the GNU/Bard kernel. It's really up to you, because Iambic Pentameter wants to be free!

  13. Re:Perfect timing. on Freenet 0.5.1 Released, P2P Network Stabilizing · · Score: 1

    Sorry. Link was wrong. Try this.

  14. Perfect timing. on Freenet 0.5.1 Released, P2P Network Stabilizing · · Score: 4, Interesting
    Freenet is the perfect medium for journalism, because it is anonymous and cannot be taken down by any governmental entity.

    Class, can anyone think of why this might be helpful RIGHT NOW?

    Also, check out Freeweb. Easy Freenet Web publishing. Servereless. Beautiful. Windoze-only, but nice for daily news sites. Used to run one back in Freenet 0.3.9.

  15. Re:But .....? on Swapping Clock Cycles for Free Music? · · Score: 4, Informative

    Yes, it is. Folding@Home, and possibly SETI, I can't remember, check for a connection before transmitting a packet of crunched numbers. I think Folding will even dial, transmit, downoad and disconnect, if you want it to, IRRC. Been awhile since that machine died though, so I could be mistaken.

  16. You mean Unloaded, not Cancelled. on Matrix Special Edition Cancelled · · Score: 4, Funny

    Dammit. Could have been so much cooler.

  17. You mean deleted, right? on Matrix Special Edition Cancelled · · Score: -1

    I mean, uh. . .Ok, stupid, but I couldn't resist.

  18. So it DOES matter when I fart? on Is The Earth's Rotation Changing? · · Score: -1, Redundant

    No, seriously, this could suck. I certainly wouldn't want the earth's rotation to stop. Even IF I was on the terminator.

    1. Come up with killer concept

    5.???

    6. Profit!!!

  20. What a relief. on Appeals Court Rejects Child Online Protection Act, Again · · Score: 5, Funny

    I was afraid they might set up some sort of recreational club under this law, a COPA-cabana if you will.

  21. Had me a hydroponic processor, once. on China's 64bit Homegrown CPU · · Score: 1

    64-bit, RISC, 1MB L2 Cache, and just as plump and juicy as when it was picked. Mmmm-hmm, that's good eatin'!!! :)

  22. What about patched for human security holes? on Firewalls and Internet Security, 2nd Ed. · · Score: 2, Insightful

    Specifically, the one which makes lusers write their UserIDs and passwords on Post-It(c) notes on their monitors? You'd be amazed how many times I had to send people emails from themselves before they got the message. . .

  23. Fascinating on Aspect-Oriented Programming with AspectJ · · Score: 4, Funny

    I love that aspects seems to provide alternative techniques without loosing any ease-of-use, coing-wise. I was afraid that in switching to this new method I'd loose some functionality, or maybe loose some speed, but so far so good. Nothing to loose any sleep over. :)P

  24. Reading email violates the DMCA. . . on Accidental Privacy Spills · · Score: 4, Funny
    Since it involved decoding MIME info.

    Redistributing is an even bigger no-no. . .:)P

  25. YES!!! on Linux in High School Labs · · Score: 5, Informative

    Also check out The Linux Terminal Server Project K-12, a cool project devoted to this sort of thing.
