  1. Might concider buying one... on New Sony E-Book Device To Debut This Year · · Score: 0, Offtopic

    If Apple made it.

    I'm in no way an apple fanboy, but this seems like the kind of device that apple would do right.

  2. Re:That would be great on Steve Jobs to Sell Pixar and Join Disney Board? · · Score: 1

    I think you mean it would Leap Ahead.

  3. Re:Flightless? on Penguin Not Taking Flight Down Under · · Score: 1

    Yes, i always thought the slow, funny-looking waddle penguins have was meant as a metaphore for Linux on the desktop.

  4. Former Penal Colony on Penguin Not Taking Flight Down Under · · Score: 2, Funny

    They're a bunch of criminals down there, they probably just use pirated copies of Windows and other copyrighted material.

    Now excuse me while i go watch my newly downloaded Stargate Atlantis episode.

  5. Computer expert on What Should People Understand About Computers? · · Score: 1

    I wish people would stop thinking that since i studied CS it makes me uniquely qualified to help them formatting their Word document of searching for a site for them.
    I mean, i could probably figure out the interface of a program i've never seen before by trial and error, but so can they.

    In general i would like people to know stuff like the basic outline of the scientific method and formal logic so they don't ask meaningless questions.
    And the fact that everything on the computer is basically a string of bits.

  6. Re:Glorious Geek Revolution on ZDNet on the Essence of Geek · · Score: 1

    Is the whole Geek/Jock division strictly an american thing?
    Because when i went to highschool most of the people who were better at sports also studied the Physics/CS thing.
    I really can't think of anyone i could characterize as a geek.

  8. Re:back to the part numbers on Intel Dropping Pentium Brand · · Score: 1

    Pentium 5 might sound redundant, but there are alternatives. They could go with 5 + 5 = Decium. Or 5 * 5 = 5^2 = Pentium squared, or Squarium if you will, with the future options of Cubium and Tesseractium.

  9. Sci-Fi, don't pick that up! on Sci-Fi Channel to Pick Up John Doe · · Score: 1

    You don't know where it's been.

  10. KFC for Vendetta on Ancestors of Homo Sapiens Hunted by Birds · · Score: 5, Interesting

    So the whole eating chicken thing is some unconcious racial memory payback thing?

  11. Re:Three Letters on Microsoft Ends Windows Media Player on the Mac · · Score: 1

    The one problem i have with VLC is the web-plugin.
    It loads, it plays and it's done.
    I like quicktime the best for web-playback, You can wait until the whole file is down and not have to get all the buffering in the middle, you can replay it without redownloading (Windows Media Player) or refreshing the page (VLC).

  12. Re:I knew it on Microsoft FAT Patent Upheld · · Score: 1

    The patent application description states "A device for the rapid transportation of chairs, powered by sweaty monkey-rage".

    I don't watch that show, honest!

    You can watch a video while reading a book?
    Neat trick. =o

    Also, every tautology is a tautology.

  17. Intelligent Design on Einstein Has Left the Building · · Score: 1

  18. Re:Or... on 'EyeBud' for the iPod Video · · Score: 3, Interesting

    I wonder if also creates the illusion that you're blind in one eye, because i usually watch movies with two of them.

  19. That's no moon! on 'Intel Inside' No More · · Score: 1

    It's a corporate logo!

  20. Re:The internet hulla hoop? on Cash Pours in for Student with $1 Million Web Idea · · Score: 1

    The kid gets a million dollars.
    The advertisers get a site that's in the news.
    It's a win win, i doubt anyone cares about the future.

    It's like a micro dot-com bubble where everyone gets what they want before it bursts.

    Since AOL gets to name them, does that make it their parent?

  22. Re:Penis patch? on AOL Names Top Spam Subjects For 2005 · · Score: 1

    I find the whole speaking to people from a new planet in english a bit hard to ignore.
    The Stargate shows are fun to watch, but i can't really think of them as very intelligent.
