  1. Silly Earthman on Goldfish Smarter Than Dolphins · · Score: 1

    So long, and thanks for all the fish!

  2. Re:Duh. on Sony Mylo Challenges Nokia 770 · · Score: 3, Funny

    There will be three models: one with a rootkit preinstalled, one with an exploding battery, and a Premium Edition that will have both and will phone home right before it explodes.

  3. Re:Interesting Technology on Skin Sensing Table Saw · · Score: 1

    Hey! If you were a hot dog...and you were starving, would you eat yourself? I know I would! First, I'd smother myself with brown mustard and relish. I'd be so delicious!...So would you?

  4. Re:HOW SAD on OLGA Shut Down by DMCA (again!) · · Score: 2, Insightful

    I think maybe you should keep the quarter. ;)

  5. Re:For those who don't get how great this is on An Open Source Security Triple Play · · Score: 1

    So... it's a bit like a car that goes forwards and backwards, right?

    AND it turns! HAT TRICK
  6. Re:Here's the Link on Google Warns Users About "Unsafe Sites" · · Score: 1

    "...the non-link to a non-existent..."

    Ha, so you tried it too. Long live goatse. :)
  7. You think the login is bad... on The NYT Imagines Life After Earth · · Score: 1

    ...wait'll you see the content *cringe*

  8. Re:Anti-police robot mods on Linux-powered Robots From France? Oui! · · Score: 1

    USSR : makers of cool stuff that goes BOOM since 1945

    ...including itself in 1991.
  9. Passé me a dollar, Borchers on Integrate iPod with Car or Risk Death · · Score: 1

    "Borchers sees add-ons as passé. What Apple really wants you to buy is a car that's designed from the ground up to interface with the iPod."

    Borchers is welcome to send me a new car with iPod integration built in. While I could hold my breath waiting for that to happen, I'd much rather integrate my iPod into my current vehicle, thankyouverymuch. Is this guy an Apple employee or a car salesman?
  10. I disagree on Congress Passes Energy Efficient Server Initiative · · Score: 2, Insightful

    If chips use less power, then it's likely we'll see more chips being used. If anything, just as much, if not more, electricity will be used. Same with gas--greater fuel efficiency does not necessarily mean lower demand. It could also mean more driving, since it would be more cost effective.

    Either way, Congress can't do anything other than screw things up. The market has figured out that power-gulping chips are hurting its bottom line, so chip makers are making more efficient chips. Congress had nothing to do with that. The next step in chip design should likewise be dictated by what consumers want and are willing to pay for, not by politicians. Anything they do to "help it along" will muck it up.

    So no, it doesn't matter...at least, not in the way you imply.

  11. Re:Will they share? on MS Research Automates Search Engine Spam Hunt · · Score: 1

    Google will probably come up with their own, better methods. Besides, MS wants to crush Google, so no, they won't share.

  12. Village Idiot says: on Debian Server Compromised · · Score: 1

    Thank goodness *I* use Ubuntu! *whew*

  13. Ha... on AOL To Be Free For Broadband Users? · · Score: 1

    Turd, meet polish.

    /* [insert AOL code here] */
  14. Outlandish, eh? on Teen Sues MySpace Over Sexual Assault · · Score: 5, Insightful

    You must not be a lawyer. Or a parent looking to divert attention away from yourself.

    It wasn't too long ago that it could have been LiveJournal instead of MySpace in this headline. Should be interesting to see who winds up in the crosshairs once MySpace wears thin. Time for a loser-pays rule for suing, IMO.

  15. You get the feeling... on Data Theft and Corporate Irresponsibility? · · Score: 2, Funny

    ...maybe we should go ahead and just post all our personal info on the web ourselves, and save these idiots the trouble? "Haha, nothing to steal now, b17ch3z!"

  16. Re:My #1 annoyance: on Linux Annoyances For Geeks · · Score: 1
    If you use emacs...
    Whoa, you got the wrong OS. We're talking Linux here.
  17. *sniff* on Debian DPL Threatens to Leave SPI Over Sun Java · · Score: 1

    Mmmm, nothing like a good dose of smug. I wonder if Towns farts in a glass or if he just takes a straight shot.

  18. Geez... on AllofMp3.com Breaks Silence · · Score: 1
    AllofMp3.com. The very name conjures up either great respect or distain.

    ...and I quit reading. I'm sure there's some good stuff in there, but I'm having a hard time getting past that first paragraph. If you want to sound all serious and journalistic, make sure you understand the words you use first.

    PS: If you don't know what I'm referring to, send your resume to Slyck.com ASAP.
  19. Re:Common Sense on Will World Cup Streaming Cause Internet Meltdown? · · Score: 1
    Who asks these questions anyways?
    Cisco, Juniper, Akami, et al...pretty much anyone interested in selling network goods and services. "The Intarweb will blow up! Hurry, buy our stuff!"

    I guess I wake up cynical. :)
  20. Re:It's hard to imagine.... on Symantec AntiVirus Hole Found · · Score: 1

    netscape?

  21. Re:Another Caterpillar! on Microsoft To Automate Malware Classification · · Score: 1

    I said something similar once and got modded Troll. Anyway, imagine the whiny articles we'd get if MS did tighten up..."Symantec lays off 500, says reduced threat means less jobs." If only... :)

  22. It's not a trick... on Microsoft/Yahoo Merger to Take on Google? · · Score: 1

    You should totally teach civics.

  25. Crap. on Judge Creates Own Da Vinci Code · · Score: 2, Funny

    I would like to take the opportunity provided by this nitpicking thread to request that the powers-that-be here at Slashdot kindly provide us with collapsible threads. That way, next time I see a preposition joke (and a good one too, GP) attacked by the grammar impaired, I can safely collapse the thread and relax, knowing I won't miss anything of any substance whatsoever.

    Plus, I'm lazy and don't like to scroll.

    Thank you.
