  1. Darth Vader on New Darth Vader Costume Revealed in upcoming DVDs · · Score: 0, Troll

    Keeping guys from getting laid since 1977.

    ~S

  2. Re:Does this tell you anything? on AT&T Wireless Announces Music ID Service · · Score: 3, Interesting

    I'd bet it had trouble differentiating it from the 8 zillion different recordings of Moonlight Sonata. It is still interesting though.

    ~S

  3. Re:Does anyone know this song? on AT&T Wireless Announces Music ID Service · · Score: 1

    I think you are missing a la in the middle of lalala.

    ~S

  4. Re:Protocol faster than DSL? on BIC-TCP 6,000 Times Quicker Than DSL · · Score: 1

    Isn't gig ether over copper too?

    ~S

  5. I say on Gates on Spam · · Score: 2, Funny

    We use his personal bank accounts to pay for the postage.

    ~S

  6. I have silly putty too on Scientists Create Supersolid From Helium · · Score: 1

    Is that a supercrystallinesolidliquid?

    ~S

  7. Re:The gold rush is over on JRR Tolkien: Return Of The Domain Name · · Score: 1

    Great, you gotta love all the cybersquatters who want to swipe domain names and hold them for ransom from people who want to use them legitimately, not by glomming on to some brand name that people type in expecting to get that brand and instead get Joe Fuckwads Huge Titty Site of Pop-Up, Under, Sideways Bonanza of Banner Ads Site.

    ~S

  8. Re:DVD Jon on DeCSS: Jon Johansen Acquitted In Retrial · · Score: 5, Funny

    More blank DVD's I would think.

    ~S

  9. Re:In Finland... on Doomsday PC-Cooling With Dual-Cascade Coolers · · Score: 4, Funny

    I know that's what we do here in Minnesota. Of course we only can overclock for what seems like 11 months out of the year, but you do have to get out every now and then to soak up some vitamin D. ~S

  10. Wow on Home DNA Sequencing · · Score: 0, Redundant

    I had no idea this kind of technology was even near any kind of consumer level. It's amazing the rate technology is progressing.

    ~S

  11. Re:Vegas to LA on Japanese Train Sets A Speed Record Of 581 kph · · Score: 1

    Someone made this proposal quite a while ago. I don't know if it was an "official" thing, but I remember when I had the hots for Vegas every weekend me and a buddy used to talk about it all the time.

    ~S

  12. Odd on All-in-Wonder 9600 Pro Review · · Score: 2, Insightful

    Aren't there a million sites out there that do hardware reviews? Or is it a slow newsday?

    ~S

  13. The real case question is on Man Arrested for 'Spam Rage' · · Score: 1

    Just how many Twinkies did the guy consume before making these threats? And, did his coffee come at or above 170 degrees Fahrenheit?

    But seriously, this guy is a nut job. You don't make threats over the phone, mail, or internet. Is this hard to understand?

    ~S

  14. Dammit honey on More on E-textiles: Electronic Smart Fabric · · Score: 2, Funny

    I told you not to bleach my monitor, it causes all the colors to wash out!

    ~S

  15. Intel on AMD64 Preview · · Score: 0, Interesting

    I wonder what Intel has on the way to counter this?

    ~S

  16. On Giligans Island on Home Biomass Power Generators · · Score: 1

    They might have an ample supply. Or the professor could bio-engineer them with his coconut bio-lab. All that techonology they had and still couldn't fasion any tubes to make a two way radio...

    ~S

  17. So what does that amount to? on Microsoft Nailed by Software Patent · · Score: 1

    About a weeks worth of work for Bill Gates or Paul Allen?

    I'm not an MS hater, but I think it's the truth.

    ~S

  18. Re:Bittorent exlpained..... on New Kazaa Lite Protects Identity · · Score: 1

    I partially responded in the reply to the post before you but trackers do fail with some regularity and the powers that be have succeeded in shutting down a fair number of sites. If the HTML portion goes down long enough, no one else can get the torrent and begin downloading from a seeder and eventually the current seeders bow out and the seed is dead. I do like BT, I was being sarcastic for the most part. Your mileage may vary.

    ~S

  19. Re:After My DMCA Letter Scare on New Kazaa Lite Protects Identity · · Score: 1

    I like BitTorrent, it's not a troll, just being sarcastic. Quite a few Torrent sites keep going up and down then out though. Everytime BT is mentioned on Slashdot they get overloaded. www.lickmytaint.com seems to keep a fairly updated list.

    ~S

  20. After My DMCA Letter Scare on New Kazaa Lite Protects Identity · · Score: 4, Funny

    I stopped using Kazaa for a while, or only briefly. Now I can go back to being a file whore and stop using those unreliable BitTorrent sites.

    ~S

  21. Re:Meanwhile... on SETI Gains Respect, NASA Funding · · Score: 1

    Or, the search for cynics discontinues.

    Not meant to be a troll. I hear you.

    ~S

  22. Re:That's my birthday too! on July 6th - Website Defacement Day? · · Score: 1

    All hail 7/6/74 and 7/6 poster that replied to my previous post!

    ~S

  23. That's my birthday too! on July 6th - Website Defacement Day? · · Score: 2, Funny

    Coincidence? I think not!

    ~S

  24. SCO - The foundation of Communism on SCO Protest And Anti-Protest In Provo · · Score: 1

    If they are saying Linux is communism, wouldn't SCO then be the root of communism?

    ~S

  25. By that logic I should be able to write this: on IDSA Forces Arcade Game Manual Archive Offline · · Score: 1

    By reading this post on Slashdot, you must now wire me $10 million in US funds from a Nigerian prince. Failure to do so will result in endless harassment and pestering. Any review by persons over 18 and under 34 will result in an immediate and violent bowel movement.

    I think you can put anything you'd like at the bottom of your e-mail and unless an agreement was conceived beforehand it's just extra sig spam.
