  1. Re:How does it work? on Ambidextrous Linux/Windows Virus · · Score: 1


    Question:
    What does it matter how much the size of the virus changes? I was under the impression that today's security measures can generally detect virii no matter how small their payload is. Correct me if I'm wrong, please.

    I say distribute virii on multiple CDs, as far as size goes... :D

  2. Re:Can we stop with the stupid comments? on Missing Link Fossil Discovered · · Score: 1


    Well, have you ever *seen* a tectonic plate with your own eyes?

    :)

  3. Re:Can someone explain this to me? on The 2006 Underhanded C Contest Begins · · Score: 5, Funny

    Um, I think your signature should be number three:
    1. It teaches you not to take all code at face value, and actually read into it.
    2. It's fun.
    3. It's like sex, except I'm having it!

    :)
  4. Re:How can you not figure it out? on Half-Life 2 Episode One Delayed · · Score: 1



    Well, that or Government-man.

    But then again, the moon landing was probably faked, so what do I know? ;)

    [silly talk mode on]

    Yeah man, but people got personality... As we know, that goes a long way.

    I mean, we eat soylent green, don't we? :)

    [silly talk mode off]

  6. Re:IP on Idea Stock Exchange · · Score: 1
    Nobody can make me pay to use my brain.
    Ah, but what if somebody offered to pay you to use your brain?

    See how it works from the other side of the paycheck?
  7. Re:I beg to differ on Bully Gets In Trouble With School · · Score: 1

    the bully is no more.
    Oh my God, your kid KILLED KENNY!

    Seriously though, I hope you don't mean the bully died, that'd be really cruel :D
  8. Re:Tragedy on Suspend2 Suspended · · Score: 1


    I know the feeling, sometimes my Windows crashes too every now and then when I try to hibernate...

    Oh, wait...

  9. Re:Is anyone else scared? on Trekkie Dating, is it Good for the Gene Pool? · · Score: 1


    Weel, I ain'ts too shure 'bout that last statement, guv'nor!

    I mean, judging from what I see on TV on Oprah, Springer and the Brady Bunch, I for one think maybe a teensy bit of positive interference might be in order.

    After all, we've all seen Planet of the Apes, haven't we? ;)

  10. Re:Understand the market... on Vodafone Quitting Japan · · Score: 1


    The name of the network they bought is J-Phone. I actually still have one of their phones around.

    Funny that Vodafone is doing bad, you'd never tell by the insane amounts they're spending on advertising campaigns here lately...

  11. Re:Cheap knockoff on Jim Lee To Direct DC MMO · · Score: 1

    I think it's because people tend to think of all this as a business. As long as players like you and me log on to see what the game is like, they can show off that much more new users, making the MMORPG an attractive business venture. Think of it this way: at least games have gotten harder to beat, now that you even have to handpick your team members... :)

  12. Re:Yea, what have the chinese ever done for us on Jurassic Beavers Challenge Current Mammal Theories · · Score: 2, Funny


    To be fair, those inventions were made before the Socialist era...

  13. Re:Columbia explosion... on From PayPal to Planetary Travel · · Score: 1


    I think the problem is not having a hand in the launch at all. I believe many astronauts would, as you say, volunteer if only there was a way to personally check every detail of flight. The problem today is that getting on a rocket today is almost like playing Russian roulette with an automatic; all an astronaut does is sit back and enjoy the ride...

    Make going into space more like driving, and most NASCAR racers would probably sign up right away.

  14. Re:Jesus Christ! on Yahoo! Bans "Allah" in Screen Names · · Score: 1


    I don't know what's in a name, but I sure do know what's NOT gonna be in a nickname from now on ;)

    Well, at least on Yahoo...

  15. Re:The man does have a point on Mario All Grown Up? · · Score: 1


    I think what needs to change is gamer attitude. Remember the days when not every Tom, Dick and Harry owned a gaming console, and those who did were a little above the MTV-watching, brainwashed crowd? Unfortunately companies need money to survive, so designing with the discerning gamer in mind is out of the question. I think we need to change consumers' tastes, which is next to impossible. Ergo, gaming is heading for a huge fall, IMHO..

  16. Well then... on Bill Gates Defends Google's Censorship In China · · Score: 1, Troll


    Well, now that the Devil himself agreed with Google's actions, seems like the Do No Evil policy got a little fine writing under it:

    "... unless it's for profit"

    /sarcasm

  17. Re:Not as evil as the summery leads you to believe on Google Agrees to Censor Results in China · · Score: 1


    Hmm... some certain CEOs and managers might say there's more to money than life...

    I'm afraid you're gonna have to ask the Wonderful Wizard of Oz for that...
     
    Besides, if he can't do it, no one can :D

    "That is some eerie art! Is your initial part of your last name really pronounced "Golem" by chance?"

    Talk about ADD...

    Oh, and I guess he's using the Dark side of the duct tape?

    Or you could have convenient holes in the blades for the birds to fly through...


    Oh, wait a sec...

  22. Re:The kind of plugin... on MIT Startup Tests Top Million Sites for Spyware · · Score: 1


    It's true, I've heard you could catch some really nasty viruses from being in there...


    The above was a joke, laugh, people...

  23. What IS movie quality? on IBM's Radical Cell Processor · · Score: 3, Interesting


    Motion pictures made in the 1930s are also, technically, "movie quality", seeing as they're, well, movies....

    What exactly does the reporter (and Sony) mean by that statement?


    (Oh, yeah, I forgot: "well if they'll be the same quality as some of the movies Hollywood pumps out recently, I'm not buying it...")

  24. Re:hmmm on New Galactic Neighbor · · Score: 3, Funny


    Apparently they're now called vertically challenged galaxy overlords.
