  1. Shouldn't be too hard on Can Blizzard Top StarCraft? · · Score: 2, Insightful

    Cavedog managed to top Starcraft before Starcraft was even released, so it should be too hard for Blizzard to do the same.

    Then again, this is Blizzard we're talking about...

  2. Re:Developer motivation on Pitting a Mac Plus Against an AMD Dual Core · · Score: 1

    Only Zuul.

  3. Re:bummer. on Doctor Who To Be Axed, Again · · Score: 1

    When they finally go to an alien planet instead of just hanging around Earth engaging in soap-opera antics with the Companion's family, I'll let you know.

  4. Re:Imageworks on CG Television Clone Wars Trailer Released · · Score: 1

    I can imagine.

  5. Re:Pop and junk food or ... human fat ! on Driving on Starch · · Score: 1

    I bet if the Soviet Union hadn't fallen we'd have that by now.

  6. Re:I Hereby Nominate... on Best Presidential Candidate for Nerds? · · Score: 1

    Good choice. I'd vote for myself in a heartbeat.

  7. Re:Problems on Is Speech Recognition Finally 'Good Enough'? · · Score: 1

    Wouldn't a noise canceling microphone filter out pretty much all current music ant TV automatically?

  8. Re:The Garbageman and the Landscaper on A Robotic Cable Inspection System · · Score: 1

    "and it does it with a smile and never touches you..."

  9. Re:waste of time on AACS Revision Cracked A Week Before Release · · Score: 3, Informative

    Unfortunately, movies tend to be projected in the normal visible spectrum, and I don't think the screens they use reflect X-rays, so even if you had X-ray vision it wouldn't help you to see the movie.

  10. Re:Funny you should say that... on Does Zelda Need an Overhaul? · · Score: 1

    Link's Awakening also didn't involve Zelda at all, and it was the best game in the series*.

    *Of the ones I've played. I never had a Gamecube or Wii so I haven't tried the more recent ones.

  11. Re:Meme wet dream on NY Stock Exchange Moves To Linux · · Score: 1

    Wait, what are we talking about again?
    Profit, I think.
  12. Re:What's the trick? on Amazon to Open DRM-Free MP3 Music Download Store · · Score: 1

    Que sera sera. Whatever will be will be.

  13. Re:Slow News Day? on Judge Doesn't Know What a Web Site is · · Score: 2, Funny

    What? Stories of questionable value? How can this be? This is blasphemy! This is madness!

  14. Re:And when do options expire this month? :-) on Fake E-Mail Results in Angry Apple Shareholders · · Score: -1, Offtopic

    I dunno, I find the screamers get pretty annoying after a while. Moaning and dirty talk is fine, but I don't want to have to wear earplugs.

  15. Re:Infuriating on Threat To Free, Legal Guitar Tablature Online · · Score: 1

    The "brain-eating" aspect wasn't added to zombie lore until Return of the Living Dead, and the RotLD zombies retained most of their intelligence and mobility even after being zombiefied.

  16. Re:Encouraging... on The Clueless Newbie Rides Again · · Score: 1

    The Broadcom wireless card in my Acer Aspire 3003 laptop has worked fine in Ubuntu since 6.10, although it does take a bit of work to install (you've got to extract a piece of firmware from the Windows drivers.)

  17. Re:Indeed on Hilf Claims Free Software Movement Dead · · Score: 1

    Haven't you heard? Free Software programmers are committing suicide by the thousands at the gates of Redmond!

  18. Re:Really, why do people say such stupid things? on IPv6 Flaw Could Greatly Amplify DDoS Attacks · · Score: 1

    Well that covers a lot more people, then.

  19. Re:Methane and ozone, huh on Mission Could Seek Out Spock's Home Planet · · Score: 4, Funny

    The trick is to convince the non-farting aliens that farts are a sign of great social standing and virility. Make 'em feel inadequate due to their lack of this ability.

  20. Re:lasting effects? on Scientists Create Artificial Blood · · Score: 5, Funny

    I've heard that they did have a problem with the body's immune system flipping out and attacking the new artificial blood cells in early testing, but since they fitted each one of them with a miniature eyepatch and peg leg they've been able to defend themselves quite effectively.

  21. Re:It gets worse... on Lawsuit Invokes DMCA to Force DRM Adoption · · Score: 1

    Unfortunately, we no longer have enough pirates to keep the lawyers in check, and they're breeding out of control.

  22. Re:I remember that incident..... on Judges Rule Google Search by Employer Not Illegal · · Score: 2, Funny

    He must've been new there.

    Well, the jerk-store called, and they're running out of you!

  24. Re:Worth going back in time to prevent: on New "Terminator" Trilogy Planned · · Score: 1

    "Stop killing Judas!"

  25. Re:Great on New "Terminator" Trilogy Planned · · Score: 3, Insightful

    On the plus side, the Terminator franchise wrapped itself up pretty cleanly with T2, so if you don't like the new movies you can just ignore them. It's not like, say, the X-Men movie series, in which the first two movies set left a lot of plot threads unresolved only to be completely shit on with the third movie.
