  1. I got a Patent for ya. on Microsoft Wants More Credit for Inventions · · Score: 1

    This constant patent issue is horrifing. I want to patent the art of patenting retarded patents.

  2. The worst part... on Oxford Students Hack University Network · · Score: 4, Insightful

    .. has to be having the police handle a situation that they don't understand.

  3. when will they... on Microsoft Patents Grouped Taskbar Buttons · · Score: 1

    ...patent crappy Operating System Security? They know they have the proof for it!

  4. Re:This will keep the ACLU folks busy on Downtown Baltimore To Get Massive Surveillance Network · · Score: 3, Insightful

    I think deep down we all know where this is going. Orwell

  5. Well Intel can't ... on Looking Into The Power Architecture Future · · Score: 1

    ... push this clock speed marketing ploy much longer. Isn't it Amdhal's law of speedup that helps explain, going from (i'm not acutally doing the math here, just guessing) 3.0GHz to 10GHz should only give a 50% speed up or so, then 10GHz to 20GHz you get maybe 20%. I may be quite off on the acutal numbers, but you get the idea. Really what they have to figure out is how to force instructions to exectcute faster.

  6. Re:Some ranting. on Creator of the Gaia Hypothesis Urges Nuclear Power · · Score: 1

    If we just had that dang space elevator working we could launch the dead rods into space! =P

  7. From Charter Comm. on Worst Explanation From Tech Support? · · Score: 2, Funny

    In an annoyed email over an on and off cable modem connection, I sent, "Dear Charter Comm, I currently subscribe to your cable modem Internet service, I would be very interested in upgrading to an 'Always on' Internet connection. Please contact me if such a service is in or comes into existence." My reply was, nearly word for word, punctuation(or lack there of) and all, "i'm sorry i don't know what you mean, what is an always on connection"

  8. Excellent on Researchers To Climb Ararat To Seek Noah's Ark · · Score: 1

    I'm glad somebody out there has taken note of the above.

  9. Re:FOX = morons on Fox Considering a Return of "Family Guy" · · Score: 1

    Just a here here! to FOX = morons. "Late-bloomer".... Some people have to have money FORCED AT THEM, and they'll whine all the way to the bank.

  10. Re:Entirely too ambiguous! on Airspeed Velocity Of An Unladen Swallow · · Score: 1, Redundant

    And how did it carry the coconut?!? Grip it by the husk?!

  11. Re:Run! Hide! on Three More Solar Flares · · Score: 1

    I'm with you man! I got the truck fueled, raided guns and food from Walmart. Where do you want me to pick you up? We gotta find a cave fast!

  12. Re:Damn hollywood on Robot Balloon Escapes In Britain · · Score: 1

    Dood.... Just got outta that movie. This is NOT what I need to be reading about. I haven't had time to construct my nuclear bomb shelter yet. Or collect enough DVD"s to keep myself busy while I wait to die.

  13. then there was 5 on Orbital Space Plane Problems · · Score: 1

    4 spacecrafts and an elevator to space. We'll have to have morning radio reports for low orbit traffic.

  14. Inaudible to humans hmm? on Repel Bugs With Your Cell Phone · · Score: 5, Funny

    So I guess the only time you know you're getting a call is when you aren't getting bit.

  15. Re:Sex Scene on Review: Matrix: Reloaded · · Score: 1

    haha. well the way the job market is looking, i very well might be moving back into the basement after school.

  16. Re:Sex Scene on Review: Matrix: Reloaded · · Score: 1

    The dirty hippy dancing and all that other sexish crap is going to make it just uncomfortable enough that I won't want to watch it with the dad. Who very much enjoyed the first. Still a great movie. I'll be 35 one day and still feel funny about seeing that kinda sexish crap with the parents though. It really would have been great though if there was a shot of Trinity's nipples and you find out that they are replaced with those little metal/plastic connectors. =P

  17. Secret of Mana SNES on What Games Have Actually Affected You? · · Score: 1

    Anyone ever get emotionally sucked into this game? I've come across one other person so far, but there aren't many of us. The theme music still gets to me... =P

  18. Re:Myst on What Games Have Actually Affected You? · · Score: 1

    You're not alone there man. The computer used to be in the basement when I still lived at home. It took me a minute to decide I would play it alone down there, but I had every light in the place turned on!

  19. I think he was drunk... on JWZ Reviews Video on Linux · · Score: 1

    Does he sound like he was drunk to anyone else?

  20. They're just like eggs! on Mobile Phone in Your Teeth! · · Score: 1

    ...they hurt your heart, they hurt you not....and so on and so on...

  21. Re:potential sales on First Folding-Screen e-Book Reader · · Score: 1

    "Maybe" they are planning to market to colleges. What a godsend it would be to not have 50 lbs. of books to carry around everyday. o well, i know i won't be around by the time it happens.
