  1. What could you steal? on Knoppix Tips and Tricks · · Score: 1

    I wonder what sort of data you could steal from store PCs with Knoppix and a USB storage device?

  2. Problem: on Downsides to Intrafamily IM? · · Score: 3, Funny

    kewlkid: okay baby i'm taking off ur pantz...
    gran1922: okay
    kewkid: fuck i thought you were melissa. sorry gran
    gran: dont stop...!

  3. That explains it... on You've Got Spam: AOL Blocks 1/2 Trillion Spam · · Score: 1

    So THAT's why my friends never get my messages about where to get Viagra and penis extensions from.

  4. Re:Subject line is misleading on 75% of Network Connections Not From Browsers · · Score: 1

    It makes no sense at all. Thanks to all of this mix up it's hard to tell if they actually mean Web connections or Internet traffic in general. Why do people insist on not knowing the difference between the Web and the Internet?

    The only other thing I could see this meaning is how the Web itself is accessed, i.e. pages shown in P2P apps. Generally that's just IE embedded in the app anyway, and so shouldn't count.

    So fucking ambiguous.

  5. Re:To Mr WildBeast on Best Albums of 2003, Scientifically · · Score: 1

    Your disinterest in music has been recorded and logged.

    Our music rehabilition officers have been dispatched and will arrive very shortly.

    With regards,

    The RIAA

    What do the RIAA have to do with music?

  6. Re:Wow, I would've never thought it possible on Windows CE.NET Ported to Xbox · · Score: 5, Insightful

    Don't be facetious. These guys didn't just stick an installation CD in an X-Box and expect credit for it. They hacked away at a platform which wasn't built for running this sort of thing and succeeded in making a generally useful release, all in their spare time. They don't owe you anything, so until you can come up with something genuinely funny, lay off.

  7. Re:Wow... a Linux bashing article on SlashDot! on Depenguinator "Upgrades" Linux to BSD · · Score: 0, Funny

    But in true petty zealous geek style, the word upgrade is between double quotes. You can just picture a fat, snotty nerd making the quote signs with his fingers as he says the word.

  8. Re:Wired Reported Why Power Point Sucks! on David Byrne Subverts PowerPoint · · Score: 1

    No, it doesn't have it's own bullet point.

  9. Re:Wired Reported Why Power Point Sucks! on David Byrne Subverts PowerPoint · · Score: 1

    No, it doesn't have it's own bullet point. It's in an actual sentence. In an actual paragraph. Remember those? ;)

    Since you're such a lover of grammar, I should point out that posessive "it" has no apostrophe. As Strong Bad sings:

    "If you want to be posessive, it's just I T S, But if you want to form a contraction it's I T apostrophe S. Scallawag."

  10. Windows on Cross-Platform Video Capture Cards And TV Tuners? · · Score: 5, Informative

    For people trying to get a strange video card working with a later Windows OS such as 2000 and XP, these generic drivers are life savers.

    Take to the pillars, a three day party! I break the walls and kill us all with holy fingers.

    You were into japanese fast food

  15. Oh dear, what can the matter be? on Proper Disposal Of Old PCs? · · Score: -1, Redundant

    Oh dear! What can the matter be,
    Three old maids got stuck in the lavatory,
    They were there from Monday to Saturday,
    And nobody knew they were there.

    The first Old Maid was Elizabeth Bender,
    She went in to fix her suspender,
    It snapped back, hit her feminine gender,
    And nobody knew they were there.

    The second Old Maid was Old Ms. Potter,
    She went in to get rid of superfluous water,
    She claimed to be the Earl of Chesterfield's Daughter, And nobody knew they were there.

    The third old maid was old Ms. Humpfrey,
    She sat so long she couldn't get her bum free,
    She said 'I don't care for I am quite comfy',
    And nobody knew she was there.

  18. Re:Happy Birthday Perl on Perl is Sweet Sixteen · · Score: -1, Flamebait

    But thanks to our friends at the RIAA that'll be $3,000 to sing it....

    Grow up.

  19. Slashdot: Dupes for dopes. Crap that splatters. on Interview with Peter Jackson on LoTR Bloopers · · Score: -1, Troll

    Subject line says it all, Mrs. Dupecheck.

  20. How could this work? on Free IBM Computers For UK Households · · Score: 2, Funny

    A DRM system may be able to enforce this in most cases, but the techno-literate will bypass it.

    Maybe it's going to be enforced differently, though. Perhaps each time you watch an advertisement you will have to take down a code, or connect to a remote server - if you don't submit the code or the server doesn't record your view, somebody will physically come and take the computer away (and kill your pets).

  21. Trips on Australian Pilot Stranded In Antarctica · · Score: 1

    You can read about his trips around the world here.

    LSD in Madrid, psilocybin in Port Lincoln, and mescaline in Australia. Elves: everywhere.

    I think I'll be off to bed now! :-)

    Now all I have to do is adopt you as my son and my dream will be achieved.

  25. Re:Textfiles on Computer Folklore, Circa 1984 · · Score: 3, Insightful

    Yeah, a bit like that story where some guy went to a mountain and threw a ring in some fire.

    Sometimes the best part of a story is in the telling, you unimaginative sod.
