  1. Re:It Java DEAD? on Trouble Ahead for Java · · Score: 1

    Was Java even BORN in 1987?

  2. Of course Titanium is the sexiest metal... on The Sexiest Metal · · Score: 1

    If the metal has the word "Tit" in it, of course it's the sexiest metal...

  3. Yes... on CNN Says Chat Rooms Are a Haven for Hackers · · Score: 1

    ...and remember, any time someone says anything, it's a haven for radical ideas. Perhaps we should just cut fingers and vocal cords at birth so nobody can do anything illegal.

  4. Darn... on Tool Box PC · · Score: 1

    Me and my friend were going to make a PC out of a toolbox. We first thought of buying a case that held thirteen fans in it off of Ebay for 18 bucks, that includes shipping, then we decided to make our own case. The toolbox actually would cost more than the case, but we figured that it would be MUCH cooler than using a regular case. I guess I'm not original anymore...nuts.

  5. Uh oh... on Time Travel · · Score: 1

    I fear that the scientist is going to go back in time and do something ba

  6. Re:I can see it now... on Cross-platform Password Management? · · Score: 1

    Ah, but you wouldn't know what that mysterious word on the back of your right hand was... you have amnesia.

  7. I can see it now... on Cross-platform Password Management? · · Score: 1

    You make a bunch of password-protected accounts, then you store all the passwords in a file. This file will be password protected as well. Slowly, you forget all the other passwords, and the only one you have left is the main one. Finally, you hit your head against an I-Beam on your way home and get amnesia.

    There goes your career!

  8. OpenGoogle? on Google to Offer API · · Score: 2, Funny

    Are they going to release the source code to the search engine itself? That would be REALLY cool...

    We can finally find out how to implement their PigeonRank system...

  9. Wow... on DivX and MP3 Developers Work Together on Watermarks · · Score: 1

    I think it's about time we simply boycott all stuff that uses the "Digital Watermark" technology. If the companies won't trust us as a consumer, then I simply won't buy their stuff. I'm usually honest about software. I usually buy all my software from legit sources. Why do I have to be treated like a criminal?

    MP3 music watermarking is BS anyways. If they put that on songs, then all I need to do is tape the radio for whatever song I feel like hearing. Why do corporations have to leer over us?

    All I know is that a full boycott of media from these companies will hurt them MUCH more than a few bad apples downloading media that they never paid for.

  10. Re:Question time on Review: Yellow Dog Linux 2.2 · · Score: 1

    Well, LinuxPPC 2000 supports everything from the NuBus PowerMacs (like the 6100s) to the iMacs and everything inbetween. However, you MUST have at least a gig of hard drive space or you won't be able to install anything decent. There's also the matter of MkLinux, which I've never used but heard it's good for Nubus ones. If you're using a 68k, I would suggest Debian.

  11. The Simpsons on Beer Stein Goes Hi Tech · · Score: 1

    "Ahhh...beer. The cause of...and solution to...all of life's problems." --Homer Simpson

  12. Wait a minute... on ATi's All In Wonder Radeon 7500 · · Score: 1

    This story sounds like one of those Slashvertisements (tm) that was foretold on April Fools Day! Oh, no! Now Linus is going to drop the kernel development and AOL is going to buy up people's blogs!

    Remember, Drink Coca-Cola!

  13. I use Comcast's Internet Explorer... on Browser Becomes Billboard · · Score: 1, Redundant

    ...and every time that I open a window I see on the title bar: "Microsoft Internet Explorer provided by Comcast" and a retarded little "C" in the corner. If that's not a billboard, I don't want to see what they're going to do next. Are they going to put Pepto-Bismol Skins on my toolbar?

  14. Oh, don't worry about it. on Sony Intentionally Crashes Customers' Computers · · Score: 1

    They're Celine Dion's fans. Their hearts will go on.

  15. This sounds familiar. on Could a Pen Replace the Keyboard? · · Score: 1

    Hasn't "Digital Pens" been utilized in nearly every PDA?
