  2. Big deal? on Computer Game Predicts Player Moves · · Score: 2, Funny

    Big deal? You can train chimpanzees to realize that I'm going to jump the hell out of the way when I see a RPG headed my way.

  3. Re:Why? on 200,000 Elliptical Galaxies Point the Same Way · · Score: 1

    Does it really matter? 200,000 elliptical galaxies can't be wrong!


    Clearly they are the lemmings of space. Just watch how they collectively jump down a spiral galaxy into a black hole.
  4. Re:Cool... on Highway Safety Agency Silences Engineers · · Score: 3, Funny

    A new source for government conspiracy theories...


    Ah yes, the Highway Safety Agency was created by Nazi refugee scientists, and are really devoted to the resurrection of Hitler. They have been summoning aliens to earth since the 1950s, and are responsible for the Roswell crash since they sent the maps to the aliens upside-down.

    The "high ways" are not actually made for driving on, that's just what they "tell you". They are in fact a very elaborate way of communicating with the aliens. They are a in lack of better comparison, a written language. The "high ways", clearly visible from space, tell the aliens where and when to land.

    The UFOs really are Nazi escape pods returning to earth and infiltrating Washington. 19th august 2011 they will simultaneously seize control over the US, and turn it into the Fourth Reich.

    Poor you. That show has made me realize how happy I am that I don't have smellovision.

    The obvious question is, so what?


    Indeed, this is slashdot, no one here has a girlfriend, let a lone a wife.
  9. This is GOOD on Spore to Ship 'When It's Done' And Not Before · · Score: 1

    I'd much, MUCH rather have a good, complete game than an incomplete one that has been rushed because the players are impatient. S.T.A.L.K.E.R. is a prime example of how bad things can get when corners are cut to release a game sooner.

  10. Re:Medison? on $150 Linux Laptop for the Masses · · Score: 4, Funny

    You're doing it wrong...

    First salt, then Medison, then lemon. Then you wake up in a shopping cart in a stranger's bathroom with a pounding headache, no memory of last night and no idea where your clothes are.

  11. £ or lb? on Sony's Solid State 2.4 Pound Laptop Reviewed · · Score: 5, Funny

    Either this is a very cheap, or a very light laptop.

  12. Note the word "authorities" on Potentially Huge Legal Boost for EU File Traders · · Score: 3, Interesting

    Note the word authorities. Does not say anything about private organizations.

    I think I heard word of some new EU directive that would allow the copyright holders to directly demand such information from the ISPs, without involvement of the gov't. I think this is the one. Might be wrong about the details though, i can't seem to find very specific information about it.

  13. Re:Porn is inevitable on OLPC Used to Browse Porn · · Score: 3, Insightful

    And think about the demographic you're dealing with. Do the politician's even care right now?


    I thought starting early was exactly how political indoctrination usually works. It's very hard to indoctrinate adults that have learned about whatever you want to keep from them, but if you get them while they are young and easy to affect, they won't know what they're missing out on.
  14. Re:Porn is inevitable on OLPC Used to Browse Porn · · Score: 5, Insightful

    Get those filters on!


    If they truly only blocked porn, then maybe it would be a matter of discussion, but certain filters' habit of censoring all sorts of irrelevant contents, political and otherwise really makes porn the lesser of the two evils.
  15. Conspiracy fodder on MIT Finds Cure For Fear · · Score: 1

    If I was in power, I would slip it in the water supplies to remove people's fears of the government and privacy intrusions.

    Seriously, this stuff has some serious abuse potential.

    Fah! These are all mere puppets, drones if you will, for the real masters - The Lizards. And I for one, welcome our new Lizard Overlords! And I'm more than happy to help them round up humans to toil in their underground mouse-raising facilities.


    Pah! You have been misled! The lizards, along with "the REAL conspiracy", the girl scouts, death incarnate, Hitler's secret son, the killer bees, rap music, the four horsemen of the apocalypse, the IRS, undead Elvis and Satan are all just another layer of conspiracies hiding the TRUE real power behind the power... You have no idea how deep the rabbit hole goes.

    I seen that a lot of time. Jews has abuse the legal system to oppress poor people for their own gain. Remember the entire music AND movie industry is controlled by jews.


    Bah! Can you not see that the Jews are just a sock-puppet diversion away from the REAL conspiracy. As is the Free Masons, and the Templars, and the Illuminati, most of the UFOs, and the supersonic nazi hell creatures from inside the hollow earth.

  21. So? on Bogus Company Obtains Nuclear License · · Score: 1

    From my understanding, these so called dirty bombs are really more psychological warfare than anything else. They're not actually all that effective. This can be seen by studying the effects Chernobyl's fallout had on those who came in it's path (very little).

    In the words of Martin Niemöller:

    When the Nazis came for the communists,
    I remained silent;
    I was not a communist.

    When they locked up the social democrats,
    I remained silent;
    I was not a social democrat.

    When they came for the trade unionists,
    I did not speak out;
    I was not a trade unionist.

    When they came for me,
    there was no one left to speak out.
