  1. Re: Why? on Grooveshark Found Guilty of Massive Copyright Infringement · · Score: 2

    Here in Pawnee we all use Altavista.

  2. Re: Damned if they do... on Microsoft Reads Your Skype Chat Messages · · Score: 2

    By "doubly so" do you mean to imply that they use ROT-26?

  3. Re:Any need for this? on Cosmological Constant Not Fine Tuned For Life · · Score: 2

    I prefer to think that God simply has a very sick sense of humor.

    Ho ho ho, allow me a moment, my monocle has fallen into my snifter of brandy. Ho ho!

    I, being a LINUX USER, you see, do not have such mundane Mico$$$$$$$$$oft problems, ho ho!

    Did I mention I use LINUX! Ho ho. I bet you are impressed with my LINUX USING ABILITY. We USERS OF LINUX have SOFTWARE REPOSITORIES, ho ho ho. By USING LINUX you too can have a SOFTWARE REPOSITORY.

    What is that I hear? You use Mico$$$$$oft products?! Ho ho! My dear friend, you must cease at once and switch to LINUX. LINUX has SOFTWARE REPOSITORIES, did I mention this? Ho ho ho...

    oh dear, it appears my monocle has come off again! Ho ho!

    sudo apt-get install monocle

    HTH.

  5. Re:How can I upgrade? on Mozilla Puts Tiger Out To Pasture · · Score: 1, Informative

    I called up my local Apple store with exactly this question. They said "Come in and buy a retail copy of 10.6, we'll burn you a disc with 10.5 on".

    YMMV.

    I just bought a retail 10.5 disc from Apple (had to call their support number, they don't sell it on their website) to upgrade a G4 PowerBook. If I'd known this I'd have bought the retail 10.6, taken the burnt 10.5, and upgraded my wife's MBP from 10.5 to 10.6 for the same price.

    crap.

    - He's blinking... it's Morse Code.. - What does it say? - "Kill me." Over and over again. It says, "Kill me."

  7. Re:What's up with the confusing article title? on Firm To Release Database, Web Server 0-Days · · Score: 0, Offtopic

    We're lucky Slashdot properly escapes its SQL input. Aa headline like "Firm to 'DROP DATABASE `web_server`" might otherwise result in havoc. :P

    "Oh, yes. Little Bobby Tables, we call him."

    ...otherwise they'd figure out a way to stop Ted Kennedy from driving...

    Mary Jo Kopechne might not think that that's such a bad idea.
