  1. Re:What about inter species breeding on The Neanderthal's Necklace · · Score: 1

    Leave it to a geek to relate everything to sex.

    Sex seems like a reasonable connector to me, yet you seem to be using a disparaging tone. What seems to be the problem, fellow geek?:)

  2. Re:Did you know? on The Neanderthal's Necklace · · Score: 1

    Biology is full of "american" latin -- so why should it not spread to other languages too!

    Uh, American Latin is no more wrong than French Latin. Cicero (pronounced Kikero) would have pronounced it as Ne'an'dert'hal with a voiced h. The problem is that the French named them and their pronunciation rules are just as stupid as mine and thine.:)

  3. Re:Help, About on W3C Releases Drafts For DOM L2 And More · · Score: 1

    Wow, I didn't know that %windir%\system32\eula.txt didn't exist and that I should check the path and try again. If Microsoft can't find it's own EULA, what chance do I have?:)

  4. Re:The Neanderthals on Europe Goes To Venus; Mars Comes to Us · · Score: 1

    FYI: The Neanderthals had a greater average brain capacity than modern humans. They also had cool brow ridges. Jealous?:)

  5. The Paranoid Android?:) on Cassini's First Glimpse of Saturn · · Score: 1

    Marvin spent most of his semileglessness on Squornshellous Zeta.:)

  6. Re:Actually, wait... "Rare Bible Texts"? on Vatican/HP To Put Library Online · · Score: 1

    What about Finnegan's Wake? I've been told that it makes just as much sense as the Bible and that it has just as many interpretations.:)

  7. Mod Parent Down on Phoenix 0.4 Released · · Score: 1

    This troll has already been banned from MozillaZine. She was posting the same rant about this so called "BLUI" in every discussion no matter how tangential.

    Phoenix runs almost as well as the unassailable Opera on my system and should be lauded for its elegant interface customization. This trollish abuse is reprehensible and unjustifiable.

  8. Phoenix is Geeky on Phoenix 0.4 Released · · Score: 1

    It has less geek stuff in your face.

    I didn't realise that pop-up blocking, image blocking, and toolbar customisation wasn't geeky. If anything, Phoenix is even friendlier to us geeks.:)

  9. Re:A Great Story on Examples of Programming Gone Wrong? · · Score: 1

    I guess that my host blocking prevented me from seeing those windows myself (it wasn't my browser because I have Opera set to turn everything into pop-unders). Sorry.:(

  10. Re:A Great Story on Examples of Programming Gone Wrong? · · Score: 1

    Why was he programming in Imperial units?:)

  11. Re:ok one last time on U.S. Ranks 17th in Freedom of the Press · · Score: 1

    rumsfeld censors his briefings to the press cause we're at war.

    With whom?

  12. Re:Costa Rica: basic press freedoms for 9 months on U.S. Ranks 17th in Freedom of the Press · · Score: 1

    Nope.

    There's a reason for the 1st Amendment being an "amendment".

  13. Eh? on U.S. Ranks 17th in Freedom of the Press · · Score: 1

    I'm not sure if an entire countries freedom of the press should be based on the single most catastrophic to happen to it in recent history.

    They haven't mentioned the DMCA.;)

  14. Re:Politics, politics, politics. on U.S. Ranks 17th in Freedom of the Press · · Score: 1

    Why should they not be allowed to protect them?

    They should protect it by concealing the data. If journalists can get to it by ignoring absurd security lines, it's not being protected.

  15. Aaargh! on WINE: A New Place for KLEZ to Play? · · Score: 1

    Ten posts into the thread and "all right" has already been misspelled as "alright", "viruses/viri" has already been misspelled as "virii", and "already" has already been misspelled as "all ready".

    Must not learn how to use guns, obtain a license for one, buy one, find a clocktower on a map, ascend it, wait twenty minutes until my breathing returns to normal, and start shooting people.:)

  16. Uhm on Google Sued over Page Ranking · · Score: 1

    The boyscouts are eeeeeeeevil by definition and, therefore, are a bad analogy.:)

  17. Is Google a monopoly? on Google Sued over Page Ranking · · Score: 1

    Unlike Microsoft, Google doesn't lock you in with its search platform or force you to purchase Google Office so that you can communicate with the idiots who have already purchased Google Office and think that everyone's just as idiotic.

    The moment Google turns eeeeeeeevil, we can all switch to, uhm, Altavista. Actually, Altavista is already eeeeeeeeevil, so we'd have to switch to some non-eeeeeeeeevil company.:)

  18. Canada, eh? on Google Sued over Page Ranking · · Score: 1

    What about gun control, the education system, or the two party system?:)

  19. Re:just thinking.... on See Ya .su · · Score: 0, Flamebait

    Unless Bush ordered the WTC attack because he needed an enemy, you are wrong.:)

  20. Huh? on Lucky Green vs. Palladium · · Score: 1

    What are these "bloods" and "crips" you speak of? Please enlighten an ignorant Canuck.:)

  21. Opera Icon for Slashdot on Opera Software Brings Its Browser to Mobile Phones · · Score: 2, Insightful

    Time to get an Opera icon for /. it is, mmm.:)

  22. Re:This is why... on Rosen, Valenti Warn Colleges About P2P · · Score: 1

    How are murders information-nazis?:)

  23. Hmm on News.com Links to DeCSS Program · · Score: 5, Funny

    MPAA is probably tired of suing people by now.

    I wish.:(

  24. Re:But ... but, THIS isn't Fortran! on Fortran 2000 Committee Draft · · Score: 1

    What are these "birds" you speak of?:P

  25. Re:But how about longevity? on Digital Camera Quality Passing Film? · · Score: 1

    Will those pics from the 1940s be visible two centuries from now? How do you know that we won't all be wired to the net from birth and have atrophied eyes?:)
