  1. sneak an RFID tag into your rice on Heroic IT Dept Less Likely to Steal... Lunches? · · Score: 1

    ...and then track them to find the perp. I'm sure it would be digested right out.

  2. Spray your sandwich with pepper spray on Heroic IT Dept Less Likely to Steal... Lunches? · · Score: 1

    I used to put chocolate laxitives in my Ben and Jerry's Ice Cream. Everytime I would buy a little pint some roomate would eat it. Revenge is great.

  3. Re:So my on P2P Defendant Destroys Evidence, Case Defaults · · Score: 1

    What if I encrypted my whole hard drive and refused to give up the single sign on password citing my right to remain silent, 5th amendment etc, provided the encryption was unbreakable in my lifetime, is there anything the court could do?

  4. Peace in the Middle East on Ever-Happy Mouse Sheds Light on Depression · · Score: 1

    Why not air lift a load of SSRIs to the people who care least about life, suicide bombers, etc. They really don't care about anything or anyone, their life is so hopeless the thoughts of virgins in the afterlife sounds appealing.

  5. Housing ATM not Ebay management to blame on EBay Sellers Seek Management Change · · Score: 1

    The last few years consumer spending was wild due to huge home equity gains. These gains were extracted at a record pace to buy all sorts of [junk] on Ebay among other things. Now that the ATM is out of order, these sellers are feeling the pain. Gotta keep the roof over your head instead of video games in the Playstation. I won't even get started on the Adjustable Rate Mortgages that will reset in 2008, further destroying consumer spending. Its no coincidence EBAY's stock is near its 52 week low, you think its cheap now, wait a year or two.

  6. No Wishlist functionality no PIP on DirecTV's New HD-DVR · · Score: 1

    I would think this most basic feature of my old TIVO would be "cloned" on the HR20. I like to just type in the name of my favorite sports team and have the box collect all the specials, games, and news I want. I also like typing in Robert DeNiro and have it go out and find all his movies, then also capture all shows that review cars. Huge let down it doesn't have this. Minor let down is they STILL haven't included Picture in a Picture like the Ultimate TV boxes had years ago.

  7. ain't seen nothing yet on Jack Thompson Files Take-Two, Rockstar Lawsuit · · Score: 2, Funny

    Wait until Rockstar releases "The Aristocrats" next year.

  8. In other news... on BBC Reports UK-U.S. Terror Plot Foiled · · Score: 1

    ....airport curbside baggage handlers have been over heard telling flyers, "Want to buy insurance for your bag to get to its destination with you?"

  9. is the device 100% waterproof? on Combating Harassing Use of Mosquito Noise Device? · · Score: 1

    Why not just spray the hose on it. Better yet, mix up some salt water in a bucket, and dump the bucket on it, try to get it inside nice and good. It should start to rust and fail pretty quickly, the old man won't know any better. Get out the toilet paper, bb guns, and paintball guns and go to town with your teenage friends, what happened the the misguided youth of past generations?

  10. Re:Of course they lost on Internet Gambling CEO Arrested by FBI · · Score: 1

    Our local video arcade should be shut down then if your town shut these down. They give tickets and let kids claim prizes, same concept. Its amazing the minority lobbying group in town got this place shut down. What is this country coming to.

  11. "there was a fire at the memory plant in Taiwan" on DRAM Makers Accused of Price Fixing · · Score: 1

    ...I remember hearing that pathetic excuse at the local computer shops everytime memory prices went up, the only computer part that seemed to fluctuate in price instead of drop like a rock.

  12. idiots on Western Union Blocking Money Transfers to Arabs · · Score: 1

    Mohammed is the most popular name IN THE WORLD.

  13. Simpsons Quote on Pirate Party Comes to the U.S. · · Score: 0

    The Simpsons where Kudos and Klang take over the bodies of Clinton and Dole.
    CROWD: "I believe I will have to vote for a third party candidate."
    KUDOS "Go ahead. Waste your vote. HAHAHAHA"

  14. EA Sports, its in the game. on Australia's Technological World Cup Advantage · · Score: 2, Funny

    Sounds like someone simulated a FIFA 2006 game on PS2, CPU vs CPU.

  15. nothing new on Psychopharm Going 'Mainstream' In Schools? · · Score: 1

    we've been putting flouride into the water of public schools for decades. Lets get that caffinated coffee out of the breakrooms across America. As long as there are economic benefits to putting these drugs into the hands of students/workers you will see no one stopping their use.

  16. not so fast on 'Final Edition' of Blade Runner to be Released · · Score: 1

    Bladerunner Director's Enhanced Laser Master Final Final cut will be out in HD-DVD for you to buy all over again.

  17. Crashed Enzo on Infinium Tries 'Phantom' Name Change · · Score: 1

    Anyone else think this is the US verison of this guy: http://www.wreckedexotics.com/special/enzo/

  18. adapt or die on Cablevision Sued Over Remote DVR Plan · · Score: 3, Insightful

    whats so wrong with advertising embedded in TV shows. Why can't Tony Soprano be driving a coke, or eating at a Wendys and commenting how good the sandwich is. I'd much prefer embedded ads then the overt commercials where you have to listen to some jingle or paid spokeperson, those just insult my intelligence. I think they could make more money this way, as it is I don't know anyone in my demographic that doesn't flip the channel when commercials come on.

  19. China laptop on Vista Beta 2 has Major Problems · · Score: 1

    At least the drivers for the bug worked!

  20. Good luck, ATF is still around on The NSA Knows Who You've Called · · Score: 1

    After the 90's mess with the ATF *KILLING* American's, I seriously doubt the NSA is going anywhere.

  21. Slaves again on Urging Congress to Cancel the Ethanol Tariff · · Score: 1

    So the US weans itself away from the Middle Eastern Teet only to go suckle the Brazilian one (at least I hear they're sweeter).

  22. I'd dump Directv's HD-Lite (TM) service on Cox May replace its own DVRs with TiVos · · Score: 1

    After watching the picture quality go down and down with Directv I'd be happy to go back to cable (did I just say that). I really loved my old TIVO on Directv, but they dumped TIVO for their new HD-DVR (MPEG4) so now I have no intrest in their crippled non-tivo DVR that is planned out in June. Sunday Ticket was the only thing keeping me with Directv, but now I'd rather have my San Diego Padres in High Definition (COX bought the rights and wont' let Directv have them).

  23. Mushroom Cloud on Nintendo Revolution Renamed 'Wii' · · Score: 1

    All WII coming from a Japaneese company reminds me of is WWII in the US. I can see the mushroom cloud now when this system fails miserably.

  24. who is in charge in the US? on FCC Commissioner Wants To Push For DRM · · Score: 1

    Is it the people or the corporations?

  25. MONOPOLY is the problem. on TiVo vs EchoStar - TiVo Wins · · Score: 1

    The Cable / Sat monopoly forcing users to take their watered down and buggy DVR's is the real problem here. Just like Microsoft uses its monopoly power to force Media Player or IE on users.
