  1. Re:Great, but it is not... on Chinese Restaurant Suffers Large Translation Error · · Score: 1

    *ahem* Sorry. I think my Lightspeed Underwear were on too tight.

  2. Re:Great, but it is not... on Chinese Restaurant Suffers Large Translation Error · · Score: 0

    Slurm - Ride the Walrus!

  3. Re:In the words of the immortal Jimmy James on Chinese Restaurant Suffers Large Translation Error · · Score: 1

    Crazy? Does not have EC is their Sparta.

  4. lame on iPhone Tethering App Released, Killed In 2 Hours · · Score: 1

    This is like if Buy-N-Large (neé Wal-mart) had a (landline or cellphone) phone subsidiary, and you started talking about a competitor's store over the phone ... and they broke into the line and disconnected you.

    Apparently, as it stands now, phone lines are open - but phone software is not. And I think that's lame.

  5. Re:Web 2.0 ftw on R.I.P Usenet: 1980-2008 · · Score: 1

    Really? Most of the usenet clients I ever used all had horrendously broken threading.

  6. Re:This isn't that unusual on Cuil Proves the Bubble Is Back · · Score: 1

    No, but they do fly business class. Oooh! Big spenders. ;-)

  7. Re:wikileaks on Wikileaks Releases ACTA Negotiations As "0-Day" · · Score: 2, Interesting

    I was under the impression that ACTA was, in essence, an end-run around the constitution (or, in my case, the Charter of Rights and Freedoms) ...

  8. Re:I don't buy that on Have Modern Gamers Lost the Patience For Puzzles? · · Score: 1

    I've been noticing this with Super Mario Galaxy. It seems slightly more puzzle-oriented than I expected it to be.

  9. Re:developer buy-in on Best and Worst Coding Standards? · · Score: 1

    I'll wager 50 quatloos on the Python guy

  10. Re:Rated G! on Wall-E Supervising Animator Tells His Story · · Score: 5, Funny

    "Get these motherfucking beans out of my motherfucking documentary!", as narrator Sam Jackson would say ...

  11. I must ask ... on The Push For Quotas For Women In Science · · Score: 3, Funny

    Where is the push for sex quotas in space? Where is the push for the space-based study of elderly people with dentures giving oral sex in microgravity?!?

    Spacecorps Directives be damned!

  12. Re:There's a Reason for That on B-2 Stealth Bomber Gets Upgrade, Joins the '90s · · Score: 1

    I just meant "not the pilot(s)". Heh.

  13. Re:There's a Reason for That on B-2 Stealth Bomber Gets Upgrade, Joins the '90s · · Score: 5, Insightful

    ... or the wrong people die.

  14. Re:Sad on Hans Reiser Leads Police To Nina's Body · · Score: 5, Funny

    Should've gone with BeFS. At least the filesystem is indexed and instantly searchable.

  15. Re:never ceases to amaze me on Irrigation Controller Stolen, Wirelessly Rescues Itself · · Score: 1

    I dunno, they probably get ostracized anyway, what with their cranberry juice predilections and all.

  16. What about ... on 9 Reasons Why Developers Think the CIO Is Clueless · · Score: 2, Funny

    ... "finds far too many ways to use the word 'Synergy'" - is that on the list, or anything involving corporatespeak?

  17. Re:I understand why you`d want to go pre-built on What NAS To Buy? · · Score: 1

    I don't have one, but I've totally been meaning to get one.

    Does anyone in Canada sell them, or are they only obtainable through ThinkGeek?

  18. Re:Cracking at its best on Magazine Photos Fool Age-verification Cameras · · Score: 1

    But at that point, you'd be better off opening a shop and forgoing the vending machine idea altogether. Oh, wait, I see where this is going ... :)

  19. uh on Algorithm Names Powell 'Ideal' Vice President Candidate · · Score: 1

    Why are they letting a guitar-jamming Al Gore choose the VP candidate?

  20. Re:DNS323 on What NAS To Buy? · · Score: 2, Interesting

    Word - the new firmware with the BT client is *awesome*. About all I could ask for now is some sort of linux/web-based clone of TVersity so I could stream directly from the DNS-323 to my XBox 360, instead of using my XP PC + TVersity as an intermediary.

    (The onboard uPnP server doesn't seem to act as an XBox 360-compatible media server. Go figure.)

  21. Re:I understand why you`d want to go pre-built on What NAS To Buy? · · Score: 1

    My D-Link DNS-323 has a power-saving mode. Works fine.

  22. Re:Cracking at its best on Magazine Photos Fool Age-verification Cameras · · Score: 1

    Three-dimensional face mapping combined with infrared sensors and a fourth-dimension check.

    (In other words, make sure the face has a pulse, and that it can move.)

  23. Re:Cracking at its best on Magazine Photos Fool Age-verification Cameras · · Score: 1

    Force everyone to wink at the machine when buying something ... :)

  24. Re:Mad? Really? on MySpace's Melting Makes Murdoch Mad · · Score: 1

    Perhaps they mean mad as in "crazy lunatic", rather than "The Incredible Mur-Hulk"?

  25. heh on PhD Research On Software Design Principles? · · Score: 1

    Kudos to the editors for posting this (apparently) un-edited. I got a chuckle out of it.

    "Dudes! I totally need to graduate. Write my thesis for me!"
