  1. Re:i would like to .. on Attack Of The Dreamcasts · · Score: 1

    I bet Angelina Jolie could sneek, sneak,sneAk, or sn33k into your office.

  2. Requirements? on GUIs for Everyone · · Score: 1

    If you approach this from a design and development perspective, the first thing you need are valid requirements. This guy challenges the open source community to build a better GUI but does not, IMHO, provide any solid problems to solve. OK, Windows is 'dumb and arrogant' and 'heartless' and his Apple 'had a unique personality through various touches and tools' (get a room) but is this a result of problems with the GUI or just user preferences? I do not find my SGI any easier to use than my KDE desktop and most of time find searches much easier at the command line than through some dialog box. I am sure that there are new and better ways to open files and launch applications (VR gloves?) but before there is some great new radically different interface introduced for Linux, just remember - someone thought 'New Coke' was a good idea.

  3. The real utility of this technology on Boeing Joins In Anti-Gravity Search · · Score: 1

    "I lost 30 kilos on the new Podkletnov WEIGHT (not mass) loss program"

    Can we make sure that Téa Leoni is near the impact site?

  5. Re:I could do that... on Around the World In 14 Days · · Score: 1

    Next time he should go for "First man around the world in a balloon with 3 porn actresses"

  6. Re:Keep this in mind... on Building a Cockpit Setup for Simulator Games? · · Score: 1

    But does it have sidewinders on it?

  7. Re:the donation is not a smoking gun on California to Cancel Oracle Deal · · Score: 1

    Compare this to the defense industry where contractors are not even supposed to provide refreshments (soda, coffee, donuts, etc) at meetings with the government. ("That's some good coffee - we'll take an extra 200 of those tanks")

  8. Re:great idea! on Sci-Fiction Channel To Do Myst Miniseries · · Score: 1

    But just wait till they release the book of cheat codes. You go into 'god mode', skip through all the boring scenes and commercials then change the ending of the movie to something that makes sense.
