  1. Re:RMS May be a Kook!!! on RMS Urges Opposition to "Trusted Computing" · · Score: 3, Funny

    Yeah, he's pretty Naderiffic.

    As far as your "grey" issues go, perhaps you should try Grecian formula?

    I've been wondering where Frasier Crane has been hiding.

  3. Re:This doesn't exclude the Web from courtesy on ADA Doesn't Apply to Web · · Score: 1, Troll

    Why not have firearms designed for people who have no arms?

    Because then they would be called firestubs. And that sounds dumb.

  4. versioning on Enabling Mouse Gestures for Cocoa Apps · · Score: 3, Funny

  5. Re:I fold at home on Folding@Home Reports Success · · Score: 4, Funny

    I tried to fold a molecule once, but I wasn't even able to fold a piece of paper eight times.

  6. Okay, I give up... on Small Webcasters get Powerful New Ally · · Score: 4, Funny

    "...the Triangle's classical music station..."

    What the hell is "the Triangle"? And why do they have a classical music station. Now I can understand a square might have a classical station, or maybe a pentagram would have an acid rock station.

    Maybe it's because they use triangles in symphonies. What kind of station would a circle have, I wonder?

  7. Re:This may seem abrupt, but ... on Ask 'Junkyard Wars Diva' Cathy Rogers · · Score: 1, Offtopic

  9. This is really, really stupid on 'Tear-Free' Onion in the Works · · Score: 4, Funny

    Ok, so what's wrong with this world where people want to tear up their onions. And even if they do, SO WHAT! I say, let people tear 'em, rip 'em, shred 'em, even stomp on 'em if they want to. I mean, really!

  10. It never made sense. on Apple Won't Be At Macworld Boston · · Score: 2, Funny

    I don't understand why they would want to go to begin with. I mean, Big Mac's are pretty good, but personally, I would rather go to something like NachoWorld.

  11. I tried it on Duct Tape Can Remove Warts · · Score: 5, Funny

    I tried to suffocate what I thought was a wart with duct tape, but I had to take it off after one day because I had to pee really bad.

  12. Re:OGG! on Another iPod Competitor · · Score: 2

    Contrary to popular belief, that computer salespeople at Best Buy are not all nitwits. Most of them know what they are talking about but are hindered by corporate policy.

    True story:
    When I bought my Apex DVD player, it had a sticker on the box that said it played "Mpeg3". I tried to explain what was wrong with that to the salesman. It was like trying to teach my dog algebra.

  13. destined to failure on Predicting User Behavior to Improve Security · · Score: 2

    The Heisenberg uncertainty principle states that there will always be true statements within a system that cannot be proved within that system. Thus, there will always be "true" security breaches because it is not possible to predict in advance what form they may take.

    Although, we can be certain that they will exist, they may be so insignificant that we never can detect them.

  18. The Babel effect on Space Elevators: Low Cost Ticket to GEO? · · Score: 5, Funny

    The problem with something this tall is that it will inevitably be destroyed, and we will be scattered throughout the earth and forced to speak different languages.

  19. I agree with the editors on Report From RIAA v. Verizon Case · · Score: 5, Funny

    He does seem to have a very good grasp on the underlying issues and the technology

    Based on what I read in the article I would have to agree. Particularly this sentence towards the end that says, "It sounds as though the judge had a good grasp of the technology."

  21. Re:3d displays cannot work on 3D LCD Display · · Score: 2, Insightful

    Mod this up!

    Funniest troll I've read in a long time.

    Objects are perceived as the same distance away when light takes the same amount of time to traverse from each of the objects.

    That's great! Objects appear further away because it takes longer for the light from them to reach my eyes.
