  1. Could be worse on Pirate Party Comes to the U.S. · · Score: 5, Funny

    At least they didn't spell it this way: P1r8 P4rty

  2. Silent Media PC on Completely Silent Media PC · · Score: 5, Funny

    With a silent media PC would you at least be able to use closed captioning so you know what is going on?

  3. Re:I don't know about... on Building a Silent, Air-Cooled System · · Score: 1

    I would settle for a "piece"! Piece: Vulgar Slang. A sexually attractive person.

  4. Don't quiet the noise, change it. on Building a Silent, Air-Cooled System · · Score: 2, Funny

    I prefer to attach playing cards to my fans so that the sound is modified from a whir to a vroom. Very Much like my BMX when I was a boy.

  5. Re:you know... on UK Record Industry Starts Suing Filesharers · · Score: 1

    Because they were redistributing it. Besides which, if you steal from WalMart you will be paying back much more than the price of the item stolen if your caught!

  6. Re:violent games on Views on Violence in Video Games · · Score: 3, Informative

    Just hold down circle, you don't need to keep pressing it.

  7. Re:Smart Telcos and ISPs don't have to block VoIP on FCC Fines Company for Blocking Access to VoIP · · Score: 1

    Well, we didn't really BLOCK them: class-map match-all COMCAST-VOIP-CONTROL match dscp af31 class-map match-all COMCAST-VOICE match dscp ef match access-list 101 / COMCAST SUBNETS class-map match-all VONAGE-PACKET8-VOICE match rtp ! policy-map WE-HAVE-CONTROL class COMCAST-VOICE priority percent 95 class COMCAST-CONTROL priority percent 4.9 class VONAGE-PACKET8-VOICE priority percent 0.1 ! Interface ALL ! service-policy output WE-HAVE-CONTROL

  8. Re:VOIP traffic characteristics on FCC Fines Company for Blocking Access to VoIP · · Score: 1

    VOIP packets do need consistant bandwidth for a good quality conversation, and most VOIP services do mark the packets for priority using COS or DSCP. Routers on the Internet in general do not pay any attention to the priority markings therefore VOIP gets no priority. If you really want to complain that your data traffic is getting a lower priority than voice traffic it would have to be to an ISP that also does VOIP as I am sure they do pay attention to the priority marked packets for their own customers.

  9. Re:Meanwhile, over at El Reg ... on Sony Announces PSP Launch Date · · Score: 1

    Are you actually serious? You where confused by the symbols on the buttons of a PSX?

  10. Media Player link on Microsoft Won't Appeal EU Ruling · · Score: 3, Funny

    So now when a link to a media file is clicked instead of opening Windows Media Player, Windows will probably open a Web Browser to download Windows Medial Player.

  11. Re:Dropped packets. on US Air Force Building Space Router · · Score: 2, Funny

    The router will not drop any packets due to zero gravity.

  12. Ultimate Game Creation Utility on Trying Your Hand at Level Design? · · Score: 1

    Everyone I know that has made it in the level design field has done so by using the Bard's Tale construction set.

  13. Don't worry, long flights will be around a while on The Future of Flight · · Score: 2, Interesting

    To bad all the major airlines don't want faster planes because of the effect it would have on the schedules of flights. Faster planes have been available for years and it still takes about 4 hours between NY and LA on commercial flights. Not to mention the sonic boom of faster than sound travel not being allowed (one of the reasons the Concorde was never used across the US).

  14. eckcha isa outa on Linguistics Meets Linux: A Review of Morphix-NLP · · Score: 1, Funny

    Ia oundfa aa anguagela ita antca igurefa outa!

  15. Denial of service setup! on Will Your CD Player Tell on You? · · Score: 1

    Lets get as many /. readers as possible to coordinate a time to play the exact same track and see if we can crash the server with information overload. Better yet, someone figure out exactly what packets are sent so we can duplicate it without buying the CD and just continuously send worthless information to the servers so they give up.

  16. Won't work on DARPA Has $3.2M to Sniff You Out · · Score: 1

    3.2 million dollars to research this? I will take 1 million to tell them it won't work and they can use the remainder to put into some worthwhile efforts. Scents are not like retinal scans, they would be way to easy to mask or alter.
