  1. Re:What is he gonna change? on Barack Obama Wins Democratic Nomination · · Score: 1

    Me neither - "Meet the new boss, same as the old boss". That's why I was pulling for Hillary.

  2. Re:You will be missed bill on Bill Gates's Last Speech · · Score: 1

    Sure, modded as "funny" but if it wasn't for Bill I wouldn't have a job.

  3. Re:And it only pays $80K. on Tech's 10 Worst Entry-Level Jobs · · Score: 1

    Tell me about it. Where I'm from developers make 50K and dev managers 65K. To get to 80K you probably have to be Director level.

  4. And this just in... on 66% Apple Market Share For Sales of High-End PCs · · Score: 1

    Apple holds an astounding 100% of the Macintosh market.

  5. Re:Brody: on World's Newest, Most Powerful Laser Comes Online · · Score: 1

    Hey, that movie is over *30* years old, so everyone complaining about the Austin Powers references have been beat.

  6. Re:Imagine on "Back To My Mac" Catches a Thief · · Score: 1

    but can the camera work fine when the CAMERA is covered in tape?

  7. Action on Spam Is 30 Years Old · · Score: 1
    "Appropriate action is being taken to preclude its occurrence again"

    If only!

  8. Re:level 80 on World of Warcraft - Wrath Of the Lich King Is In Alpha · · Score: 1

    Well, it took me about 8 hours to get that far - then again, I suck at video games. Actually one of the things that stopped me from getting further was getting "Stuck" on my quests (either getting killed immediately, or not being able to find what i needed to look for)

  9. Re:level 80 on World of Warcraft - Wrath Of the Lich King Is In Alpha · · Score: 1

    Heck, I lost my motivation to play after reaching level 6. Running around killing wolves and thieves, collecting swag and bringing it back to the castle? Probably just me (10 million subscribers can't be wrong) but I got bored fast.

  10. Re:Has "fail" written all over it on How Microsoft Plans To Get Its Groove Back With Win7 · · Score: 1

    AAC/MPEG-4

  11. Re:Has "fail" written all over it on How Microsoft Plans To Get Its Groove Back With Win7 · · Score: -1

    Ummm - was that meant to be funny? I've never played an mp3 on my iPod (just ripped CDs and songs purchased from iTunes)

  12. Re:Not entirely dissing Surface on Why Microsoft Surface Took So Long To Deploy · · Score: 1

    I have had the chance to play with surface (there is one where I work in building 86) and am VERY impressed. Everyone that stops by to play with it comments on how cool it is, and is laughing and smiling the entire time. Seriously, I would love to have this in my house.

  13. OK I'll say it.. on Stroustrup Says C++ Education Needs To Improve · · Score: 1

    Does anyone still USE C++ any more? Seems the only ones around where I work who even know C++ are the old timers. Recently, the consulting company I work for had the opportunity to hire a number of C++ programmers for a legacy project - we had one guy on staff, and couldn't find ANYONE else with the necessary skills.

  14. Missing Option... on A Fond Look at Some Obsolete Ports · · Score: 1

    Where's HP-IB, aka GP-IB? I want somewhere to plug in my oscilloscope and hot wire anemometer!

  15. Re:Auto-pilot cars @ 150 MPH on What Will Life Be Like In 2008? · · Score: 1

    Actually they were right-on about the roads - lots of municipalities (Pennsylvania, and Bellevue Washington come to mind) are experiementing with new paving materials such a "Superpave" and others that contain rubber particles and provide a smoother and quieter ride

  16. Re:This always reminds me of... on Someday You'll Hate Apple (And Google Too) · · Score: 1
    naw, the point of no return in his descent into evil was killing all the sandpeople.

    Yes, this is horribly off topic but I can afford the mod points

  17. Re:AN OPEN LETTER TO HOBBYISTS on Someday You'll Hate Apple (And Google Too) · · Score: 1

    Mod Gates down as troll! Although I wish I saw that letter when it was written and sent in my resume....

  18. Followup article needed on Calculating the Date of Easter · · Score: 1

    Hope we see a followup article on how Passover is calculated - after all, they roughly conincided at least once 2000 years ago.....

  19. Re:Who Killed the Electric Car? on 100-Year-Old Electric Car Design Makes a Comeback · · Score: 1
    >> Priuses aren't largely driven by "the affluent

    Tell that to Bill Gates.

  20. Re:Look how quickly I adjust too on Blu-ray Player Prices Hit 2008 Highs · · Score: 1

    car telephones are obsolete?

  21. Really? on GoDaddy Silences RateMyCop.com · · Score: 1

    Banning the site would not pass constitutional muster in any court in pre-9/11 America - but I could easily see it happening today.

  22. Re:There is no contradiction. on The Universe Is 13.73 Billion Years Old · · Score: 1

    They could also be Jewish, you insensitive clod.

  23. Wow... on Internet Explorer 8 Beta Features Revealed · · Score: 2, Informative

    Looks just like Safari on my circa 2004 iBook (especially the toolbar).

  24. old news on Experiment Shows Traffic 'Shock Waves' Cause Jams · · Score: 1

    My engineering professor did similar studies in the 1960s - he told us about them in our dynamics class circa 1983.

  25. Re:RTFA! on Microsoft Pulls Vista SP1 Update · · Score: 1

    Ah OK, that guy IS in the MS phonebook.
