  1. Re:Tomorrow's Ad today on Monster.com Attacked, User Data Stolen · · Score: 1

    I think it might more likely read "Submit resume to /dev/null@monster.com."

  2. Re:Sounds like... on Gunplay Blamed For Cutting Fiber · · Score: 1

    Being near Cleveland, I find it much more likely that no one *cared* about the gunshots. . .

  3. Re:As an Australian... on ESA, EA Caught Editing Their Own Wikipedia Entries · · Score: 1

    49th. You're forgetting Kansas.

  4. Re:Asimov must be spinning in hgis grave... on First Armed Robots on Patrol in Iraq · · Score: 2, Informative

    I, Robot the MOVIE wasn't even about the Asimov collection; the script was originally called Hardwired, and bears not the slightest resemblance to Asimov's works, with the single exception of Asimov's Three Laws being interjected into the script. But many sci-fi works have utilized these, including the Alien series, Star Trek, and Mega Man.

  5. Re:ACLU Wrong Again on ACLU Protests Police Scanning License Plates · · Score: 1

    Well, the police argument against that is that they *want* to have in the database your known hangouts, so that when you commit a crime, they can come and arrest you immediately, instead of having to hunt for you.

  6. Re:The conspiracy stuff.... on New X-Files Movie · · Score: 1

    So. . . you liked the first season episodes?

  7. GTA3 on X-Box on Rockstar Allows GTA Fans to Call Liberty City Radio Station · · Score: 1

    GTA 3 on the X-box lets you play the mp3s that are on the hard-drive. Nothing quite like mowing down old ladies with random sub-machine gun blasts while rocking out to "Bananaphone."

  8. Re:If I were MS on 60GB PS3 Price Cut Not Just a 'Fire Sale' · · Score: 1

    I believe Sony already *is* on the defensive. This is clearly a tactic to get people to go, "Oh no, the cheap PS3s are going to sell out, I'd better buy one!" What people forget is that there are a couple hundred thousand systems sitting on store shelves right now, while many people *still* can't find Wiis. . .

  9. Re:They like R-rated movies too on Study Says Kids Like 'M' Rated Games · · Score: 1

    What we need is a video game where you can pay the mortgage and roll over IRAs, so I can learn how to do these things, instead of being evicted all the time!

  10. Re:Oh please on Team Builds Viruses To Combat Harmful "Biofilms" · · Score: 5, Informative

    The whole point of preventing/stopping the films is in places where you can't reach where the films will accumulate. Like an artificial heart. I'd like to see you clean *that* in the shower every morning.

  11. Re:Full Article Text on How Much Caffeine is Really in That Soda? · · Score: 1

    So the SIAA (Science Industry Association of America) doesn't sue him :)

  12. Re:Flawed... even down to the analogy. God? on Perpetual Energy Machine Getting Lots of Attention · · Score: 1

    The only analogy I can give is if you had absolute proof that God wasn't real. Personally, his analogy would have made more sense to me if it had been, "The only analogy I can give is if you had absolute proof that God was real."
  13. Re:And in the next issue... on Captain America Buried in Arlington National Cemetary · · Score: 1

    And then goes to Paris!

  14. Re:To Counter Your Point on Charges Dropped In PA Video Taping Arrest · · Score: 1

    It would be for any union realistically. How would you feel about being videotaped while you were working? Almost anyone who works in retail IS videotaped while working. Hell, my LAB has video cameras, in case some terrorists decide they can blow up an airport with the 100 grams of KNO3 we have. . . *sigh* The DHS, keeping us safe, sort of. . .
  15. Re:Fine: Define email on Senator Warns of Email Tax This Fall · · Score: 3, Funny

    Do you ever wish there was a "Depressing" mod option? ;)

  16. Re:Why so much Hummer Hatred? on Hybrid Cars to Get New Mileage Ratings · · Score: 1

    most people who drive them are dicks. Fixed that for you.
  17. Re:What's the big deal? on Halo 3 Beta Impressions · · Score: 1

    But who the hell bothers to have PC LAN parties anymore? All my PC gaming I do over the net, whether it's Guild Wars, CS, Starcraft, or Diablo. The only time we bother to have "LAN parties" anymore is because of Halo (since none of us bought it for PC).

  18. Re:Things like this are easy to fix. on Google's Evil NDA · · Score: 1

    According to his biog, the physicist Richard Feynman I did a doubletake when I read that as:

  19. Re:Frightening on Student Arrested for Making Videogame Map of School · · Score: 1

    Who among us doesn't own a hammer? I own three. One's kind of small for hanging pictures. Another one is a normal sized hammer that I've had for a long time, and the third is one that replaced my normal hammer when my neighbor borrowed it for 2 months. I've got one for bashing heads in. Does that make me a criminal?
  20. Makes a little bit of sense. . . on Treating the Dead · · Score: 5, Interesting

    I remember reading somewhere in the last few months (possibly here on /.) that the new preferred version of CPR was 10 compressions to one breath, as opposed to the traditional 3. More compressions = less oxygen. . .

  21. Re: :-) on The PSP - Sony's Missed Opportunity · · Score: 1

    . . . and have absolutely nothing else to do, and eyeing the jailbait has gotten boring. "Boring?" Dude. Seriously. What the fuck is wrong with you?
  22. Re:Knee-jerk reaction to Virginia Tech on Student Arrested for Writing Essay · · Score: 1

    . . .and spent several days in consoling until they decided that he wasn't serious. Damn, he got to play video games for several days? All I got for my death list was a lousy in-school suspension. . .
  23. Re:20 year off == 20 good funding years on Z Machine Advances Fusion Race · · Score: 1

    blame your governments. Isn't that always applicable?
  24. Wrong Date on Pokemon Diamond/Pearl Released in U.S. · · Score: 1

    I hate to bash the editors, but the game was released Sunday, not today; and the party was Sunday as well. And I've got fifteen hours in already, and this is finals week. Oops.

  25. Re:If this sounds familiar... on Easy-to-Make Material Scratches Diamond · · Score: 1

    The sad thing is, I heard this when I wasout.
