  1. Re:This has its perks on Making It Hard For Extraterrestrials To Hear Us · · Score: 1

    Now imagine if it somehow gets around that the natives are *delicious*

  2. Re:This is the new Amerika on TSA Bans Flight If You Refuse To Show ID · · Score: 1

    "The Soviets don't let you travel without paperwork - we would never do that because we are a free nation." "The Soviets tell everyone that the restrictions are 'for their protection', but it is a lie." "The Soviets distort the news which is reported to the people." Has anyone ever seen any propaganda video to this effect? I would love to get my hands on some.
  3. easy fix on Group Wants Wi-Fi Banned, Citing Allergy · · Score: 5, Funny

    Lets just glue some crystals and magnets together, hand them out, and say the block the harmful energy.

  4. Re:Grand Unified Theory on CERN Scientists Looking for the Force · · Score: 1

    I'm gonna take a shot in the dark here and guess that it evaluates itself.

    If every possible mode of being is, then it exists because it must exist. Or at least, that's how I rationalize observing such seemingly unlikely balance.

  5. applications of abstract theory you say? on Prototype Software Sniffs Out, Disrupts Botnets · · Score: 1

    It just occurred to me that there is going to be a point in this arms race where I am going to be interested enough to want to participate. Now how do I go about bringing myself up to speed on the subject I wonder.

  6. Re:Corrected on Online Parent-Child Gap Widens · · Score: 1

    How much would you have learned about computers if this was done to you?

  7. Re:!BRICK FFS on Exploit Found to Brick Most HP and Compaq Laptops · · Score: 3, Funny

    No, no, it does. It's, uh, you need a new one. So just, you interested in selling that one? You know... for parts?

  8. Re:w00t!!!! on SCO Files for Chapter 11 Bankruptcy · · Score: 1

    No, that's still a party.

  9. Re:Doesn't this already exist? on Japanese Researchers Aim to Replace the Internet · · Score: 2

    As many as it takes to get one that's free of private interests.

  10. Well? on Will You Change Your Web Site For the iPhone? · · Score: 2, Insightful

    Will you redesign your cities for IT???

  11. yeah, right on Proposed Amendment Would Ban All DVD Copying · · Score: 1

    Existing hardware aside, they're only going to create a market for un-crippled chinese knockoffs. And by knockoffs I mean after hours fabrication runs in the same factories that make the real thing.

  12. Re:The Pirate Bay on TorrentSpy Ordered By Judge to Become MPAA Spy · · Score: 1

    The only ones who make money on a royalty basis are the band and their publisher. Everyone else is already paid.

  13. Let me get this straight... on MIT Wirelessly Powers a Lightbulb · · Score: 2, Funny

    Laser conduits for power??? Finally!

  14. Timothy Leary on Google's Answer to Filling Jobs Is an Algorithm · · Score: 1

    Reminds me of the story about timothy leary taking his own psychological tests when he was admitted to prison. He got away.

  15. Re:Like, shouldn't they have tested this years ago on NASA Avoids "Happy New Year" On Shuttle · · Score: 1

    It's not like they even have to wait for new years. I mean, they can set the date on the thing right? They could go find out right now.

  16. Re:*snort* on How Do You Punish a 16-year-old Spammer? · · Score: 2, Informative

    Half a line of lyrics in google is sufficient to find the track name and artist.

  17. don't worry about those 'nano' particles either on Cleaning Uranium Waste with Bacteria · · Score: 2, Funny

    Don't worry about it, it's all planned out. The gorillas will all freeze to death when winter comes around.

  18. Meh. on When Doing PR For Anti-Spam Firm... Don't Spam · · Score: 2, Interesting

    I would never have heard of these people. Now I have heard of them.

  19. Re:Pennsylvania on Interstate Highway System: 50th Anniversary · · Score: 1

    Amen. Every winter I try to make the drive from ohio to vermont/maine at least once. There is about 40 miles of I90 between ohio and new york when I make it through there I feel like I have cheated death. Colors are brighter. Food tastes better. That kind of thing. I don't know how that road is passable in the summer when the tank traps aren't filled with ice.

    Although I didn't go this last winter so maybe they repaved it/bought some salt trucks. Somehow I doubt it though.

  20. Re:avoidance on Hawking Says Humans Must Go Into Space · · Score: 4, Funny

    Hey, if I can put off dealing with something until the heat death of the universe, I call that a problem solved.

  21. Mostly blank column on The 100 Best Tech Products of 2006 · · Score: 4, Insightful

    How about letting the comments extend to the left edge of the screen. To be honest, I don't come here for the crap articles. Slashdot's real content is the comments.

    The way it is now looks like a xanga page 'customized' by someone with maybe some aesthetic ability. It looks ok, but it's still generic as hell. The front page is pretty good, but the format doesn't support area where the real value of the site is.

  22. Re:Melodrama != Angst on Online Revenge · · Score: 2

  23. Re:Maybe we should put G. Washington on trial on Diebold Whistle-Blower Charged With Felony Access · · Score: 1

    Probably nothing worse than what would have happened to him then (were he caught).

  24. yuck on First Face Transplant · · Score: 3, Interesting

    they can't reconnect the nerves can they? Wouldn't it feel like having a thick layer of dead skin on your face all the time, I mean I'd want to pull it off continually.

  25. dang. on A Recipe for Newspaper Survival in the Internet Age · · Score: 0, Flamebait

    that's one long recipe.
