  1. Re:so what's new? on Realistic Portrayals of Software Programmers? · · Score: 1

    The Mango!

    Ya know, I coded a PHP content management system and named it after Mango ... sort of. :) Still needs work. Ah well.

  2. Re:Movie Programmers on Realistic Portrayals of Software Programmers? · · Score: 1

    I'll have you know that I have an awesome hat.

    A tilley T-3. Fun :)

    Oh, and did you know that the majority of the Babylon 5 story lines were laid out before the first episode was filmed?

  3. Re:What? on Realistic Portrayals of Software Programmers? · · Score: 1

    Umm ... Apple's iPhoto has an "Enhance" button, and I hear it works wonders.

  4. Re:"PC Load Letter"? What the fsck does that mean? on Realistic Portrayals of Software Programmers? · · Score: 1

    Have you ever been to Tahiti?

    And, more importantly, did you bring your stapler with you?

  5. PalmOS6? on Two New Handhelds From Sony · · Score: -1, Offtopic

    Slightly offtopic, but has anyone here heard which components of BeOS that Palm plans to integrate into later PalmOS revisions? I think I heard something about the media server and input server APIs, dunno though.

  6. Re:Just thought of it ... on Hacking the Streamium · · Score: -1, Troll

    Yup, I knew full-well how stupid the joke was. I just enjoy it.

    All your base are belong to us. :P

  7. Just thought of it ... on Hacking the Streamium · · Score: -1, Offtopic

    In Soviet Russia, PC-Link reverse engineers YOU!

  8. But ... on Hacking the Streamium · · Score: -1, Redundant

    Can it make toast?

    Does it run NetBSD?

    Can I use Emacs with it?

    Oh ... and don't forget OGG. Can it do ogg/vorbis?

  9. Re:Simple solution: on Buying a Small, Light Linux Notebook Computer? · · Score: 1

    "Excuse me, sir, but I *must* ask you to think of this laptop as though it were your penis. Would you shave off the side of your penis just so it fit into your wife with less effort?" (Oh, my, god, that was so wrong. Sorry, but I couldn't resist.)

  10. Ya know ... on Highlift Systems' Space Elevator In The News Again · · Score: 5, Funny

    I think they will have to choose the music for this elevator VERY carefully. I mean, how long will it take to get up there? You don't want people to go insane and stuff.

    Although, it would make for a REALLY good tv-movie. :)

  11. Re:Wincrash on TurboTax DRM Writes to Your Boot Sector?! · · Score: 1

    That is SO much harder to pronounce. :) I'm too lazy for .sxw!

  12. Re:Eep! on SMP-Oriented Video Card Round-up · · Score: 1

    Does the Parhelia 512 do dual-head with broadcast-quality TV input/output? I'd like to experiment with that stuff, and a Matrox G450 eTV sounds like a nice place to start.

  13. Re:Why? on SMP-Oriented Video Card Round-up · · Score: 1

    TGUI9440 PCI? I've got Windows 2000 Pro running on one of those in my mom's machine :)

  14. Eep! on SMP-Oriented Video Card Round-up · · Score: 1

    This puts my Banshee to shame.

    If I had some actual money, I might grab a Radeon 7500 VIVO ... of course, what I really want is some Matrox eTV card ... :)

  15. Re:Why? on SMP-Oriented Video Card Round-up · · Score: 1

    I have a Creative Labs 3D Blaster Banshee (16MB AGP). Bugger off with your fancy-ass video card.

    kthxbye ;-)

  16. Wow ... on Sega Merges With Pachinko Company Sammy · · Score: 4, Funny

    Wow ... this is like Vivendi ... merging with ... Las Vegas! Imagine the kids from THAT marriage. *shudder*

  17. VM? on Plex86 Lives, As Lightweight VM Technology · · Score: 0, Flamebait

    Well, _anything_ is faster than BOCHS (BeBochs, specifically). Plex86 certainly sounds interesting, I'll have to look into it.

    I just have one question:

    Couldn't they have called it Flex69?

  18. Re:Sci Fi channel doing more literature? on Sci-fi Channel's Children of Dune · · Score: 1

    I'm Canadian. I pity the Americans too. I want Firefly back ... stupid FOX network ...

  19. Re:Sci Fi channel doing more literature? on Sci-fi Channel's Children of Dune · · Score: 1

    Specifically, I believe he meant TREMORS: THE SERIES. Although, granted, the word "dreck" does instantly bring that to mind.

  20. Well? on Sun Releases New Servers, Blades & More · · Score: -1, Offtopic

    When can I get a "MOON" computer?

    You know, the one with the crack-loading CD drive

    And the incredible uptime, thanks to sitting in a chair all day ... oh, wait, that's downtime.

    *scratches MOON*

    *looks confused, but entertained*

  21. It's a lie! on Carmack Needs Rocket Fuel · · Score: 2, Funny

    Carmack really just wants to abuse John Romero's hair.

    "Suck it down, Bitch."

    Man, I would PAY to see Carmack knock Romero down and dye his hair blonde. :)

  22. Re:Yeah, smart... on Rick Berman Doesn't Know Why Nemesis Tanked · · Score: 1

    You mean nerd-WAR.

    A Nerd-Ward is something far more sinister. It's where all the old nerds go to spent their final days, after being driven insane by spelling-nazis on slashdot.

    (hilarious hijinks ensue!)

  23. Re:If only ... on First OpenVMS Boot On IA64 · · Score: 1

    Duron. Maybe I should snarf an XP1800+? :)

  24. Re:If only ... on First OpenVMS Boot On IA64 · · Score: 1

    ... because it cost less than $20 Canadian, and because it's older than two years! I think I might be able to get NetBSD on it, though.

  25. Re:If only ... on First OpenVMS Boot On IA64 · · Score: 2, Funny

    Not to mention bacon, eggs, and hashbrowns. (Ooh, I have a Perl hashing function that a friend designed which would make EXCELLENT hashbrowns)
