  1. Guess what? on British Court Issues Bizarre Copyright Ruling · · Score: 0

    You can't copyright an idea, that's entirely true. Do you know why? Because I have the copyright to that idea!

  2. Something to note. on EA And ESPN Team Up, Despite Sega Deal · · Score: 2, Interesting

    On ESPNews, for the Tampa Bay vs. Philadelphia game, ESPN NFL Football was used to predict what might happen, and not Madden NFL 2004.

  3. Rotary what? on Florida Proposes Taxing Local LANs · · Score: -1

    "Most of Florida communications case law stems from the rotary dildo era," says David Bruns, spokesman for the state Department of Revenue.

    Rotary dildo era, sounds dirty. Would put a whole new spin on phone sex.

  4. God Dammit! on New Transmeta Chip: "Efficeon" · · Score: 5, Funny

    Why do companies like Intel, AMD, and Transmeta keep having to name processors so they sound like they came straight from the mouth of Rob Schneider's SNL character The Richmeister?

    The Celer-on, the Opter-on, the Athl-on, the Effice-on.

    It's not good for marketing, guys! Everybody hates Rob Schneider!

  5. Bad boy! on Florida Citizens' Anti-trust Payout Dwarfed By Lawyers' · · Score: -1

    Mr. Gates, I saw that, you naughty, naughty boy. Get those hands out of those nice lawyer's pockets this instant, mister! I mean it! If you don't, you won't get to play monopoly tonight!

  6. Blushing? on Microsoft's Patent Problem · · Score: 0, Interesting

    If I was InterTrust, I'd be quiet about the patents. With as much "digital security" problems Microsoft has, I would find it rather embarrassing to say that they were mine. InterTrust, what integrity you may have had just went down faster than Jenna Jameson in a porno video.

  7. Actually... on Nationwide Class Action Filed Against DoubleClick · · Score: -1

    ...I hope that Doubleclick wins this one. Sheer stupidity should not be rewarded.

  8. Holy shit! on United Nuclear · · Score: 1, Funny

    You guys just gave the Slashdot effect to people with nuclear capabilities! You better hope for your sake that they're not too pissed off. You might just have a special shipment by way of air mail pretty soon...

  9. Re:Personally on Evaluating a System for Selling and Delivering MP3s? · · Score: -1

    Yep, just restating that it's a necessity. In other words, make sure it stays.

  10. Personally on Evaluating a System for Selling and Delivering MP3s? · · Score: -1

    Many of the other things people said I would like as well (multiple encodings, samples, fast download speed, a decent price, etc). But it would be necessary for me to have it so that you can download the same song multiple times after you buy it. If the file accidentaly gets deleted or whatnot, I wouldn't want to have to pay for the same file again.

  11. Too much pressure. on Christian Videogame Alternatives Explored · · Score: 4, Funny

    Man, if I were a Christian, I'd feel really bad if I lost one of these games. Would God, among others, look down upon me if I lost?

    Child: "Shoot, I lost..."
    Mother: "That's too bad sweetheart, were you lacking in faith again?"
    Child: "No mom! I didn't mean to lose..."
    Mother: "Don't play the game unless you can win."
    Child: "But..."
    Mother: "When you fail in the game, you fail Jesus."

    Not to mention, wouldn't some of these games be contradictory to the "Jesus, God, and faith can't loose" attitude that Christianity has?

  12. Don't be stupid! on Genetically Engineered Pets Hit the Market · · Score: 5, Funny

    They just appear to be glowing in red and green patterns, if you fucking hippies would get off of the psychedellics you'd realize that they're not glowing at all!
    Oh, wait, that's Phish, my bad.

  13. Finish him! on Hulk Game Codes Hidden In Movie · · Score: 5, Funny

    Man, I remember Kombat Kodes being put in the credits of the original Mortal Kombat movie and trying furiously to write each set fast enough. If I'm not mistaken, Mortal Kombat the movie is where other movies have gotten the idea from. Also, simoniker you suggested that we "...don't look if you want to play along at home" in reference to GameFAQs having the codes already. Are you suggesting that we pirate the movie before its theatrical release. Shame on you! This would make Jack Valenti turn over in his pile of money!

  14. Call the editor! on Oldest Modern Humans Found · · Score: 5, Funny

    It's time to revise the Bible again! Damn science, it makes my work so much harder.

  15. Something not right... on Lessig And RIAA Answer NewsHour Questions · · Score: 0

    From Oppenheim: "It is not legal, ethical or cool to copy somebody else's CD for your own use." Yes, daddio, the RIAA just radiates coolness like an a/c unit. They've been the keen machine to millions of internet users. What the hell has the RIAA been smoking to think that they themselves are cool or can judge coolness? Back to cool school for you, fool!

  16. Re:How silly on Online Auction Industry In A State Of Limbo · · Score: 0, Redundant

    Have fun trying to use those alternatives, because I've patented them! Try using one and I'll see your ass in court.
