  1. Re:Better question: on Beer Found to be as Healthy as Wine · · Score: 1

    Just like if alcohol companies had any influence on alcohol ads, there wouldn't be word one about moderation in them?

  2. Re:Chess, Islam, and Arab governments on Hydra vs. Shredder · · Score: 2, Interesting

    Your emoticon is RTL. That's pretty cool.

  3. Re:Very Easy on Dealing with Intruders? · · Score: 1

    I recently saw a police report where two people were arrested for prowling for looking in car windows.

  4. Re:Worth a try on A One-Handed Keyboard For $25 · · Score: 1

    Check out 1-handed Dvorak.

  5. Re:Trademark your religion on Jerry Falwell Wins Dispute Over Fallwell.com · · Score: 1

    Whitehouse.com is legitimate-- it's the name of a previously existing publication, in any case. Bush2004 is legitimate because it is a parody. Fallwell is neither.

  6. Re:How much does it cost on Clear Solar Panels Double As Projection Screens · · Score: 2, Insightful

    maybe someday we'll get fission

    Yes, in the far-off future world of the 1960s, we and our descentants will live on a world powered by the mysterious atom! You can ride an atomic-powered sidewalk to the nuclear air-depot, catching a 5-minute ride to Bangladesh on the world-wide nuclear shuttle. Energy will be cheap and reliable in this spectacular future, brought to you by the scientists at General Atomics!

  7. Re:Yep, Finland is an interesting place on Net Addiction Gets Finnish Soldiers Out Of Army · · Score: 1

    Is your name derived from the remarkable overclocking opportunities presented by your nation's climate?

  8. Re:My Father and My Grandfather Were At NASA Then on Apollo 11 Photographs Unfrozen · · Score: 1

    Your dad was a missile commander. That's a really badass-sounding job.

  9. Re:Wouldn't it be more appropriate on Pick Up A Piece of Enron · · Score: 1

    A public corporation has no morals. Charitable donations are made solely to boost image, and, as Enron's is already completely shot, such things would not happen.

  10. Re:Why Fight? on Language Tempest At Orkut · · Score: 1

    I find your use of my religion in your simile highly amusing.

  11. Re:Ah... I can't... oh no... on Doom 3 Reaches Gold Master, Due August 5th · · Score: 1

    No, that's a computer to run Doom.

    (see, three wasn't specified, y'know?)

  12. Re:That's the difference between you (and him)... on Father of DVD Gets Bitter Reward · · Score: 1

    Even in your case, it would be better if you had the money, rather than the employer-- the employer would return it to the shareholders or use it to pay for corrupt executive's ice scupltures of naked people or some such thing, while you could donate an even larger sum of money.

  13. Re:Must need coffee before reading slashdot on 70 Megapixel Webcam · · Score: 1

    Yes, because slit-scan isn't enough of an innuendo already...

  14. Re:Umm.. can you say colossal waste of money? on Enterprise-class Car Audio · · Score: 2, Informative

    He said he hasn't paid anything for it at this point.

  15. Prius on Hybrid Cars Don't Live Up to Mileage Claims · · Score: 1

    My family has a Prius. It is now getting 46 MPG-- not the claimed 55 MPG, but still quite good. EPA tests are under ideal conditions for all cars-- the lower fuel efficiency isn't a surprise, and shouldn't be to anyone.

  16. Re:no ... on Privacy in the Woods? · · Score: 1

    Well, I thought the first thing reading it quickly, but, if it's just a day trail, it won't be a problem-- those IDs not in by the end of the day are those missing.

  17. Re:You can't laugh this off, not even with Mozilla on Life-Ruining Browser Hijackers · · Score: 2, Funny

    You can't hide behind Mozilla -or anything for the matter. Lynx :-P

  18. Re:How many similar images... on Digital Cameras Change War Photo-Journalism · · Score: 2, Informative

    War has always been about turning the enemy from a human to a monster. For a quick example from WWI, look at these posters:
    1 2
    These posters depict Germans as horrible and inhuman, and thusly, killable. In times, people on both sides have bridged the gap, but the horrible nature of war is to turn the enemy into something monstrous: Krauts, Japs, Jews, terrorists, Capitalist Pigdogs, etc.

  19. Wow. I'm disappointed! on X Prize Competition Gets New Sponsor, Amended Name · · Score: 4, Funny

    First the Pulitzer Prize and the Nobel Prize whore themselves out, and now the X-Prize.

  20. Britney Spears concert? on Beyond Megapixels · · Score: -1, Troll

    Who the hell would want to take photographs of such a heinous thing?

  21. Re:What the crap? on 526 Years On, Da Vinci's Clockwork Car Constructed · · Score: 1

    Did they ever claim to have listed all of these several sources?
    here

  22. That third plane is weird on Towards Silent Supersonic Planes · · Score: 0, Offtopic

    It has an American logo and a red star. Have the commies taken over?

  23. And, thusly... on Software To Stop Song Trading · · Score: 5, Insightful

    Encrypted protocols increase in popularity.

  24. Re:Command line? on Linux for iPod Matures · · Score: 5, Funny

    Scrollwheel moves through a list of letters. Middle button confirms selected letter.

  25. Re:old consoles on Homebrew Carts and Coin-Ops - Phillyclassic 5 · · Score: 1

    The parent claims there was an earlier system.
