  1. Happened to wistangs.com too on Ford Claims Ownership Of Your Pictures · · Score: 1

    BMC wasn't the only club hit by this. Us at Wisconsin Mustangs got the same canned letter from Cafepress (from Ford). Cafepress stated Ford claimed ownership of the photos I took for our 2008 Calendar as well. So, we moved our club store to printfection.com and had mpix.com take care of the calendar printing. So yeah, even more pissed of Mustangers here too!

  2. A What Saber? on Homeland Security Commissions LED-Based Puke-Saber · · Score: 5, Funny

    Puke, I am your father.

  3. Re:Why the focus on breast cancer? on Going Pink For October · · Score: 1

    I think it's because guys want to save the boobies!

    On a more serious note; my wife and I raced in the Komen Race for the cure in Milwaukee last weekend. Breast cancer hit close to home when her aunt was diagnosed a few weeks ago. Besides our $25 each to race, we raised $250 in donations. You know what, it felt damn good to do something; even if it wasn't a lot.

    We (and some friends) plan on doing the "Bowling for the Cure" this January as well. Cuz, bowling's what we do in Milwaukee when not drinking beer and eating cheese. And helping a little bit more sure won't hurt.

  4. Re:Desktops on Congress Passes Energy Efficient Server Initiative · · Score: 1

    ...and putting only what people NEED on their desk. I love having the power, but I have no need for this 3GHz HT P4 sitting on my desk when I'm spending 90% of my time ssh'd into various UNIX/Linux boxes.

    But then again I probably need it to handle the filtering Outlook does to handle 10 bazillion worthless emails I get each day.

  5. Re:Slight Difference on Texas to Provide Online 'Bordercams' · · Score: 1

    No, not really. A 12 gauge is a much deeper (and louder) sound. I own one of each. The .410 sounds like the peashooter it is compared to a 12 gauge.

    Great little squirrel gun though!

    You want a light shotgun for defense? Try Mossberg 500 with pistol grip and short barrel. Get some light loads. Will put a hurting on someone without going through walls too well.

  6. exhaust? on Ladies and Gentlemen Allow Me to Introduce the Cat Car · · Score: 1

    Defnitely gives new meaning to the term "cat-back".

  7. Coffee Cooling/Brewing? on Cooler Servers or Cooler Rooms? · · Score: 1

    You think with enough coffee-pounding geeks around, we could figure out how to engineer a water-cooling solution that would plumb the heated water through the workplace's coffee makers. It would keep the systems cool, and the coffee addicts happy!

  8. Re:No ! on NASA Proposes Warming Mars · · Score: 1

    What if a meteor was to hit Mars first? Have we calculated the probability of which planet is more likely to get splattered first? If it's Mars...what's the point of being gung-ho to get people there?

  9. What? Informative? Insightful? on Car Hacks & Mods for Dummies · · Score: 1

    I'd like to smack whoever modded this Informative and Insightful, jeez. I guess ricers must be moderators on /. too.

  10. here's an idea on Toyota Patents Winking, Laughing, Crying Car · · Score: 1

    (If applicable) flip your rear window washer over so it sprays upward and fill it with oil.
    Not saying I've done it. Just an idea.

  11. emotional ricer.... on Toyota Patents Winking, Laughing, Crying Car · · Score: 5, Funny

    I wonder what expression a riced-out version will show when mom's minivan beats it in a drag race...

  12. Re:Oh great on Microsoft Patents The Body Bus · · Score: 1

    Better install a firewall so you don't get any viruses from your open port.

  13. NX - Nitrous Express?!?! on Transmeta To Add 'NX' Antivirus Feature To Chips · · Score: 2, Funny

    Man, these chips are gonna fly...till the bottle runs empty. Oh, wait, I should go read first.

  14. Score -1: Get a life on Road Marker Marks You · · Score: 2, Insightful

    When your father is on his death bed in a hospital 40 miles away and you and your siblings want to get there to see him before he passes, I'm sure you'll want your car to be stuck doing the speedlimit...
    I also didn't buy a car with a 4.6L V8 to be hampered by built-in speed controls. Some people find driving fun you know.

  15. New Civic laptop! on Enderle's Ferrari Laptop · · Score: 3, Funny

    I'm gonna produce this dope laptop with automotive clearcoat paint, and some panels just covered in primer! It'll have a big wing(handle) on the end of it and sound like a bunch of bumblebees when booting up! It'll have tons of athlon, pentium, and crucial stickers on it, but have absolutley none of those parts inside!!!
    Best of all...it'll be cooled by nawwwssss...but when it runs out, you'll still think it's fast!

  16. Re:try this on The Absolute Worst Working Environment? · · Score: 1

    See...just another good reason to use a John Deere tractor...just kidding man, that had to suck.

  17. try this on The Absolute Worst Working Environment? · · Score: 4, Interesting

    20 below zero (F - that is) spreading cow manure using a tractor(John Deere 2630) with no cab on it. Not to mention there's a 10-20 mph wind.

  18. how about WI? on LinuxWorld Moving to Boston · · Score: 1

    How about having it in Milwaukee or Madison Wisconsin? Close enough that people from Minneapolis/St. Paul, Chicago, Milwaukee, and Madison could hit it. Plus, we never get any cool stuff here anyways.

  19. plano tackle box for small stuff on How Do You Organize Your Gear? · · Score: 1

    I've got a plano tackle box that I use for all the various screws(thread type and head style), jumpers, CMOS batteries, Motherboard standoffs, heatsink goop, slot fillers and all those other little things you might need but can never find.

  20. Re:Start up time? on OpenOffice.org Hits 1.1 · · Score: 2, Informative

    $ emerge oooqs
    That'll fix your startup times, and the tray icon is pretty handy.

  21. go figure on U.S. Court Blocks Anti-Telemarketing List · · Score: 1

    Who would have though...the day I'm running a load test on our company's new No Call List application, we get this. Oklahoma, quit being a brat. The IT spending to meet this no call list should be a hell of a lot more economically stimulating than any telemarketing would ever be.

  22. nope, real meaning is... on Alternative To Windows Desktops · · Score: 1

    Mentally Challenged Slave of the Empire

  23. Old News...Back to the Future on Bacteria Powered Batteries · · Score: 1

    The writer of that movie must have been a genious! I wonder if he could prove prior art?

  24. checking every file? on RIAA Sues 261 Major P2P Offenders · · Score: 1

    They really looking at all the files shared? Or are they looking at how many?

    If they're looking at the # of files I wonder what they think of my shared Gentoo distfiles mirror ...

    SCO has declared that the earth is actually flat, that you *can* dig a hole to China, and that the moon is, in fact, made of green cheese.

    Hey! Don't give those SCO execs any more ideas for pumping up the stock price!
