  1. Re:I've seen it on David X. Cohen of Futurama Talks About the Movie · · Score: 2, Informative

    I thought the movie was decent but not as good as I had been hoping for. Some of the old episodes had more funny moments in 22 minutes than the entire movie had (Roswell That Ends Well anyone?).

  2. Re:Ubuntu on Linux Foundation's Desktop Linux Survey Results · · Score: 1

    This point is totally valid because Ubuntu is the only Linux distro available and.. oh wait..

  3. Re:Is it just me on NASA Goes Bargain Basement With New Satellite · · Score: 3, Funny

    I had assumed they were just going to pray and hope God launched it for them.

  4. Pfft.. on Violent Games As Great Teachers · · Score: 2, Funny

    I've been playing violent video games since I was a little kid and I'm probably one of the most non violent people you will ever meet AND I WILL VIOLENTLY DISEMBOWEL ANYONE WHO CLAIMS OTHERWISE!!

  5. For some reason.. on Judge Rules That I Own Slashdot · · Score: 4, Funny

    I have a vision of you standing on a street corner shouting this post at passing vehicles.

  6. Re:9.3 what? on World of Warcraft Hits 9.3 Million Players · · Score: 4, Insightful

    Having the most customers does not mean you have the best product. Theres an example to prove this but it has been beaten to death before.

  7. Re:That would be true... on World of Warcraft Hits 9.3 Million Players · · Score: 3, Funny

    I guess you've never tried to access the mod sites the day of a patch.

  8. My friends and I.. on Fighting Back Against Ghost Calls · · Score: 1, Interesting

    came up with an idea where if a telemarketer called, we would connect them to an automated system that tried to make them think they were talking to a person. The idea being that whenever the guy stopped talking, the computer would play prerecorded messages like 'Tell me more' to see how long it could keep him on the line. Never actually tried it though.

  9. Re:If there was only content worth watching on Miro Turns 1.0 · · Score: 4, Interesting

    You know you can add RSS feeds of torrents right... tvrss.net is your friend.

  10. Re:So the big question is... on 38% of Downloaders Paid For Radiohead Album · · Score: 5, Insightful

    I would imagine they only get 1-2 dollars per CD from a label so probably a lot more.

  11. Re:Oh great! on $200 Linux PCs On Sale At Wal-Mart · · Score: 3, Funny

    We'll probably need more people then to keep up the level of mockery people have come to expect.

  12. Re:Obligatory link on America's View of the Internet · · Score: 1

    If you live in America, you do.

  13. Re:The student edition is now $47 more on OS X Leopard Ships On October 26th · · Score: 1

    Funny story.. it costs $115 in Canada for students. *rubs hands together in glee*

  14. Uhh... on How Microsoft Inadvertently Helps To Fund FOSS · · Score: 1

    Not to sound like a dick but this sounds pretty anecdotal. I'd be willing to bet 90%+ will still be going right back to Microsoft.

  15. Re:The saved game dilemma on Gaming Usability 101 · · Score: 1

    The first Golden Sun game on the DS has a fairly lengthy cut scene right before one of the bosses. It took me several tries to beat them and I was ready to smash the game by that point.

  16. Re:Why is this news? on XKCD 327 — Exploits of a Mom · · Score: 1

    You can post xkcd anywhere you like (for non commercial reasons). From the bottom of the page: "This work is licensed under a Creative Commons Attribution-NonCommercial 2.5 License."

  17. Awful nice of them on Copy Protection Backfires on Blu-ray · · Score: 4, Interesting

    The more they do stupid things like this, the better I feel when I pirate.

  18. Re:Newton is already back, it's called the iPhone on Newton II - Does The Rumor Have Legs This Time? · · Score: 0

    Keep in mind they might have been marketing a stylus as a bad idea simply because they were selling a product that didn't have one. If they actually released a new Newton, I would imagine it would have a stylus.

    It's like before the Intel switch, they were all about how clock speed wasn't that important then after the switch its 'ZOMG 40% faster!'

  19. Re:Why the need for a buss? on First 'Quantum Computer Chips' Demonstrated · · Score: 3, Informative

    My understanding is quantum entanglement cannot be used to transfer information.

  20. Re:Alien vs. Predator. on Klingons to Take on Furries in Bowling Match · · Score: 3, Funny

    In Soviet Russia, grammar fails at you.

  21. Re:My World Museum Future Tour on Google Testing "My World" Second Life Rival? · · Score: 5, Funny

    Bob was a false prophet. Clippy was our true savior.

  22. Re:Yes... on A Mathematical Answer To the Parallel Universe Question · · Score: 4, Funny

    And got a +5 insightful.

  23. Whew on Game Pirate Sentenced To Jail Time · · Score: 5, Funny

    I feel safer now. Nothing scares me more than the thought of walking down the street and having my IP stolen at gunpoint.

  24. Re:And on three... on Firefox Working to Fix Memory Leaks · · Score: 5, Funny

    Ok.

  25. Re:Boston on MIT Student Arrested For Wearing 'Tech Art' Shirt At Airport · · Score: 5, Funny

    Probably a real one.
