  1. Re:on/off switches on Computer De-Evolution: Awesome Features We've Lost · · Score: 1

    I have one of these.

    http://www.zalman.com/eng/product/Product_Read.asp?Idx=198

    No on/off switch at all.

  2. Re:Sorry to sound apologetic... on Google Founders' Jets Caught On WSJ's Radar · · Score: 1

    Maybe they should get an injunction? ;)

  3. Re:If you want a cheap laugh.... on Gitbrew Releases OtherOS++ PS3 Linux Dual Boot · · Score: 2

    Cheap laugh? I found the level of ignorance rather depressing.

  4. Re:Theory, speculation, bullshit. on PSN Outage Continues, Console Hack Claimed To Be Responsible · · Score: 1

    "Slashdot should to change its moniker to "Jerry Springer for Nerds". All that's missing is a video feed of some grimy sweat pants wearing nerds furiously typing away virtual beatdowns over vi or emacs."

    There, fixed that for you. :)

  5. Re:Uh, unless you're a programmer... on Microsoft Counts Down To XP Death · · Score: 1

    And if the image of the countdown is correct, it still has three years of support left. What is that, 13/14 years in total?
    Doesn't seem that shabby to me.

  8. Re:UK already rejected on Europe Plans To Ban Petrol Cars From Cities By 2050 · · Score: 1

    The UK, don't you mean the current tory government?

    I liked this in the summary "no exhaust smells", sounds so much more cuddly than "breathing in carbon monoxide" and whatever else they spew into the city atmosphere.

  9. Re:A real shame on US Reneges On SWIFT Agreement · · Score: 2

    In a way the decline reminds me of the local police - 30 or 40 years ago the local police were your friend - someone you could go to and talk to and who would be willing to help you out. These days it seems like you're best off staying as far away from the police as possible.
    Does anyone else see things in a similar way?

    Do you mean back before the general public had access to miniaturised sound/video recording equipment
    and the vast communications networks we have today?

    I can tell you from personal experience that the police have never been your cuddly friend

  10. Re:This is why we need sites like Wikileaks on Blogger Fined $60K For Telling the Truth · · Score: 1

    I thought it was the government that creates laws?

  11. Re:BBC just lost all credibility for me... on Nuclear Emergency Declared At 2 Plants In Japan · · Score: 2

    "See? Right there. "110, 350 missing"!"

    I see 110 dead and 350 missing.

    Can you point us to the actual article from which you are quoting?

  12. Re:time to lock up and go home on Black Eyed Peas Member Joins Intel As Director · · Score: 1

    "We smashed the NAZIs,... and destroyed the commies"

    Wasn't it those self same commies that got to Berlin first?

  13. Some interesting reading on ACS: Law Withdraws Pursuing Illegal File-Sharers · · Score: 2
  14. Re:Pc gaming = Too hard on PC Gaming Alliance's New President Talks DRM, System Requirements · · Score: 2

    I had a similar problem. My twenty year old SNES cartridge just wouldn't work on my Wii no matter what I tried.

    For your problem I would suggest:

    I personally use:

    when they hit the financial district.

  16. Re:Hmmm on Anonymous Organizes Global Protests For WikiLeaks · · Score: 1

    but the moment there's any risk -- even just the risk of losing our internet access or having a hassle at the airport security line -- we're all bitches. We're not really in a situation where we can afford to be anything else, I guess.

    You weren't forty years ago.

    Do YOU want to live in a windowless space?

    Is that a trick question? ;)

  21. Witch bones on Organs of UK Nuclear Workers Secretly Harvested; Energy Secretary Apologizes · · Score: 3, Funny

    were replaced with lengths of broomstick?

  22. Re:Jehova witnesses on USB Is the Devil's Connection · · Score: 2, Funny

    IT doesn't work that way in real life. I told a bunch of Jehova's witnesses that I was a Devil worshiper in order to get them to leave me along. This didn't work,

    Blood and organ donor stickers on the front/street door work wonders here in the UK. ;)

  23. Re:30MPG 1952 MG Convertible on Auto Industry's Fastest Processor Is 128Mhz · · Score: 2, Insightful

    "His 1952 MG also crumples up like a soda can in an accident"

    His 1952 MG also has a chassis, so I doubt it will crumple like a soda can.

    Chassis, something modern cars do not have.

  24. Since when does asking on UK Pressures the US To Takedown Extremist Videos · · Score: 2, Insightful

    Oh I get it, just more hyperbole that's guaranteed to get the colonial rebels frothing at the mouth? ;)

    Better quality would make it easier to overdose, I would imagine.
