  1. Re:Vacation Time on New XCOR Rocket Engine Passes First Test · · Score: 1

    One step closer to having honey moons in space? Wooo

    What's wrong with the current cheese moon?

  2. Re:Voyager on Technologies that Have Exceeded Their Expectations? · · Score: 5, Funny

    Voyager exceeded your expectations? I thought it was the worst of the lot. The characters were flat, and the plots were repetitive. Every other damn episode was about time travel, and they did it poorly.

    Well, except for 7 of 9. She wasn't flat.

  3. Journalism ethics on Which Price is Right? · · Score: 2, Funny

    From the article: The spokeswoman for a telecom company said, "We're not going to talk about prices, and the fact that we're not going to talk about it is off the record. You can't use the fact that we won't talk about prices in a story."

    So he goes and prints it anyways? Can he do that?

  4. Re:How about... on Sony: Case of Right vs Left Hand · · Score: 1

    Here's where I think the difference is:

    People will rip CDs to mp3 so they can listen to them on the computer. They will do this even if they have no intention of sharing them. It takes no effort to make your existing mp3 directory your Kazaa shared directory.

    But it takes special effort to rip your existing game cd to a sharable iso (or whatever) format for sharing. People don't usually rip to .iso for their own use.

    I know this joke is getting old, but this is just begging for it!

    No Smart Card will ever close this analog hole!

  6. Human Body on Science Askew · · Score: 4, Funny

    Three engineering students were gathered together discussing the possible designers of the human body. One said, "It was a mechanical engineer. Just look at all the joints,"

    Another said, "No, it was an electrical engineer. The nervous system has many thousands of electrical connections."

    The last said, "Actually it was a civil engineer. Who else would run a toxic waste pipeline through a recreational area?"

  7. On the gold course on Science Askew · · Score: 5, Funny

    A pastor, a doctor and an engineer were waiting one morning for a particularly slow group of golfers. The engineer fumed, "What's with these guys? We must have been waiting for 15 minutes!"

    The doctor chimed in, "I don't know, but I've never seen such ineptitude!

    "The pastor said, "Hey, here comes the greenskeeper. Let's have a word with him." [dramatic pause]

    "Hi George. Say, what's with that group ahead of us? They're rather slow, aren't! they?"

    The greenskeeper replied, "Oh, yes, that's a group of blind firefighters. They lost their sight saving our clubhouse from a fire last year, so we always let them play for free anytime."

    The group was silent for a moment.

    The pastor said, "That's so sad. I think I will say a special prayer for them tonight."

    The doctor said, "Good idea. And I'm going to contact my ophthalmologist buddy and see if there's anything he can do for them."

    The engineer said, "Why can't these guys play at night?"

  8. Re:Actually... on Science Askew · · Score: 2, Funny

    To the optimist, the glass is half full. To the pessimist, the glass is half empty. To the engineer, the glass is twice as big as it needs to be.

  9. Re:Those Dumb Fucks on Vulnerability In Linksys Cable/DSL Router · · Score: 1

    The same sort of thing happens to me when I use P2P. If I have too many searches or downloads, then my BESFR11 will consistantly lock up after 30 - 45 minutes. If I keep my traffic low, then it will last longer but still lock up eventually. Upgrading to the latest firmware has made no difference.

  10. Oh yeah? on NASA Wasting Time and Money on Moon Landing Doubters · · Score: 1

    If our charges weren't true, NASA wouldn't bother answering them!

    So there!

  12. Re:Well, on Kramnik and Deep Fritz Draw, Tied Before Final Game · · Score: 2, Funny

    ...IMHO the team should try either switching to 1.d4...

    1d4?!?! How can he be rolling less than this?
    He needs to use a better weapon!
    And check your tables, I believe he should be rolling vs large - which would be 1d6.

    Sounds like you spend a lot of time calling 1-900 numbers...

    I can see where the hands-free would be useful.

  16. Re:From MSDN... on Pet Bugs? · · Score: 1

    Incorrect. Take 100 numbers: .00, .01, ... .98, .99
    50 of them become 0, 50 become 1
    Who cares whether the number is changed? Are you saying that there is some problem with .00 rounding to 0?
