    I remember in 1970, it took a team of engineers over 7 days to calculate Google's page rankings. Of course, most had to use slide rules because computer time was so expensive.

  2. I'm not uber enough, apparently on Mutant Mosquitos · · Score: 1

    I have no idea what any of this means.
    Stryker?
    Dark Phoenix saga?

    And to think I thought I was dorky.

    Robot dogs playing soccer! What's next? Robot humans sniffing each other's butts and humping in the street?

  4. Re:36GB of date on Blue-Laser DVD Formats Wars · · Score: 5, Funny

    "What's a date?"

    or
    "This should be a significant challenge to the DMCA".

  13. Why not? on Life on Mars? Why Not? · · Score: 5, Funny

    There is no excuse for any business to not have a web presence. Minimally, every business, no matter how small, should have appropriate contact information and business description.
