  1. Dating... on Indiana University Dumps Google for ChaCha · · Score: 1


    Google heartbroken, quoted as saying IU just looking for rebound date.
     

  2. Re:chocolate christ on Indian Nationalists Forcibly Censor Orkut · · Score: 2, Insightful

    commoditization of christ for easter

    Yes, they're making mockery of Jesus by tying him randomly to Easter like thatg. What's Easter got to do with Jesus anyway.

    It's about bunnies, people! Next thing, they'll tie him to Christmas as well. Idiots.
    Hmm, I thought they had him 'pinned', not tied, on Easter :P

    There goes my karma, and I don't mean on Slashdot...
  3. Re:Simply put.. on Photo Tagging as a Privacy Problem? · · Score: 1


    I should have posted this higher, but this is as good a place as any...
     
    The only solution to this ongoing privacy problem, and one that people happily ignore, is to never do anything that you would be ashamed of! It's that easy... If an employer decides to not hire you because you enjoyed a glass of champagne at a party then you most likely would not enjoy working for him/her anyway.
     
    Why don't we all just admit to who we really are and take responsibility for our actions?

  4. Re:If you want real 3D on The Future of Cinema - 'Real' 3D · · Score: 1


    Yeah, but have you seen how unrealistic explosions are in there?
     

  5. Re:As a Hog Farmer on Turbo Tax Melts Down on Tax Day · · Score: 1


    You should have just sent them through the tubes...

  6. Re:i'm confused.. on Third Place Is Fine By Nintendo · · Score: 1

    I am going to surprise auto industry that is suitable for driving.
    How did so many words dissapear from that sentence?

  7. Re:Question on The 13 Enemies of the Internet · · Score: 1

    What, didn't you hear? The pyramids get wireless...

  8. Re:Study hot life instead on Antarctic Microbes Could Live on Mars · · Score: 1

    Besides, there's more chance of finding life on Venus because, as we all know, that's where women are from.
     
    And we all know exactly how women create life, riight?
     
    I mean c'mon, we've all been there, riight?
     
    *crickets*

  9. Re:Wake up rich? on Suspended Animation Tests Successful · · Score: 1
    Fry: My God! It's the future. My parents, my co-workers, my girlfriend; I'll never see any of them again. Yahoo!


    Well, chances are that in the future, you won't see Yahoo! again either ;)
  10. Re:I'm All For Tiered Pricing on Hollywood Against Jobs' Movie Pricing Plan · · Score: 1


    Sooo... how much do I get paid to watch Gigli then? :)

  11. Re:Phantom Entertainment on Infinium Tries 'Phantom' Name Change · · Score: 1


    Just you wait until they work up to Deep Space Nine ;)

  12. Re:The best part on Hydrogen Fuel Balls from a Gas Pump? · · Score: 1


    Ah yes, never thought I'd see the day when a bloke would need a nuclear physics degree in order to become a simple mechanic... :D

  13. Re:Here's a thought on Ready to Test a 'SmartShirt'? · · Score: 1


    ... then we can finally have that animated version of the Men in Tights song from Mel Brooks' masterpiece :D

  14. Re:2*2D != 3D! on Mapping a Path For the 3D Web · · Score: 1


    I think a small correction is needed: two identical 2D images will never make a 3D image if projected on each eye, no more than a single 2D image in front of both eyes do. The 3D info comes from triangulation using a constant (distance between the eyes - that's why you can't move your eyes independently).

  15. Re:Never know! on One Big Bang, Or Many? · · Score: 1

    Heh, "before"?

    What do you think will cause the next big bang?

    :)

  16. Re:What I'd like to see... on Will OSX Build In Torrenting? · · Score: 1

    Well, for one thing this kind of advertising is limited to online media. Next we need to figure out how to get rid of billboards, posters and annoying radio ads too...

  17. Re:What I'd like to see... on Will OSX Build In Torrenting? · · Score: 1


    While your comment was modded funny, you raised an interesting point. But I think the only way Apple (or anyone else) could check that you truly and voluntarily watched the ad would be to pop a quiz at the end of each commercial. Only a score above say, 60% would award you the credit.

    How's that sound?

  18. Re:Mass Mailing on More Than 20 Years of the Web on the Big Screen · · Score: 1

    In all fairness, the plot *did* imply he had God-like powers...

    Hmm, would that make a spammer a demi-god? :D

  19. Re:My Dream Job: Game developer at EA on Test Drive Your Dream Job · · Score: 1


    That depends...

    Do you insist on breathing the whole time? :)

  20. Re:Hard time.. on Both Sides of Wii · · Score: 1


    That might be because parents still think they're referring to a Jamaican you have to poke...

  21. Re:Whole new meaning to processor blocking on Micro-Pump is Cool Idea for Future Computer Chips · · Score: 1


    I think the PC term is output retentive...

  22. Re:1st person movie? for a 1st person shooter? on Why Game Movies Stink · · Score: 1


    Sure, they could even get Keanu Reeves to play the lead.

    I bet nobody could tell the difference between 1st and 3rd person then...

  23. Re:Perhaps the most important thing of all... on Making Modifications to Your Computer Workspace? · · Score: 1


    Just as long as you keep your boss from finding out about your new confy chair.

    I've noticed that bosses in general aren't too happy with you having a better chair than them...

  24. Girls are from... on ESA to Send Spacecraft to Venus · · Score: 2, Funny


    Huh, I guess now that the space rovers on Mars failed to find any men, the geeks over at NASA are wondering if they'll discover any specimens of so-called "girls" on Venus...

    Who knows, after this we might even get to understand how they work...

  25. Re:I want OSX on my Dell on Cringely Predicts Apple to Ship OS X for Any PC · · Score: 1


    On the new Intel Macs, that key functions as the self-destruct button...
