  1. Get lawyers on staff on UK Judge Rules COA is Not Evidence of a License · · Score: 5, Funny

    And maybe a notary as well. Some videographers would help out for all those business deals.

    I think I'll go into the market of blood-filled pens. I think blood is still binding, but I am (thankfully) not a lawyer!

  2. Re:Time to patent my own idea on U.S. Navy Patents the Firewall? · · Score: 2, Funny

    I'm going to patent old jokes. Just so I don't have to read that every time a patent story comes up on Slashdot.

  3. I think I have prior art in my D-link on U.S. Navy Patents the Firewall? · · Score: 5, Insightful

    And my cisco, and my netopia, and my netgear.

  4. Re:Why would I want barcodes to control my house? on Barcodepedia - a Social Network Barcode DB · · Score: 1

    Nice to see someone with such a low UID that isn't dead yet :) It would take your wisdom to see the potential for this amazing application.
    Now, if you'll excuse me, I'm going to go buy a couple of boxes of Trojan Magnums in XXXL size. Sure they won't fit, but it will improve my street cred!

  5. Why would I want barcodes to control my house? on Barcodepedia - a Social Network Barcode DB · · Score: 4, Insightful

    There seems to be so many better and easier ways to control my house.
    Now, if I wanted to keep a running total of groceries, or keep a list of items for insurance purposes, then I might consider doing it, but it still seems like an awful lot of work, for little benefit.

  6. Re:Way to go Canada on Bone Marrow Cells Repair Heart · · Score: 3, Insightful

    Is the whole genetically modified cells (which/what kind of cells?) going to be a problem for the religious types who fret about these things?

    Only until their own mortality comes into question. At least, for most of them.

  7. Re:Congratulations on Cambridge Breached the Great Firewall of China · · Score: 4, Insightful

    Better they do it from the outside then the Chinese government find the guys doing it from the inside.

  8. Re:So FINALLY we'll see an end to it? on Judge Calls SCO On Lack of Evidence · · Score: 2, Funny

    (well, a man can dream, can't he?)

    While you're dreaming, why don't you go for Darl's head on a trophy plaque?

  13. Re:I'll give odds on Star Wars Galaxies Emulator Test Server Hits Alpha · · Score: 4, Insightful

    The people got hired, the project got mothballed.

    One years salary is cheaper than a lawsuit, and does not set a precident the same way losing a lawsuit might.

  14. I'll give odds on Star Wars Galaxies Emulator Test Server Hits Alpha · · Score: 4, Interesting

    That this goes the same way that the everquest server emulator went.

  15. I've bought the Fifth Element three times! on First Blu-ray Disc Reviews Posted Online · · Score: 3, Funny

    First for the VHS. Then the DVD, then the Directors cut. Now the Blu-Ray version?

    At least most of hollywood's current movies don't outlast the media that they're released on. Gigli Blu-ray? I don't think so.

  16. Re:He's in a no-win situation.. on Why Ballmer Should Leave Microsoft · · Score: 1

    If they were wildly successful and good, we wouldn't be saying shit. Look at what we let Google get away with, because we like google. They operate in a basically transparent manner, and while they aren't open source, they publish high-quality APIs that let open source work with them.

    If I could get linux mail clients to operate with Exchange Server or Outlook to operate with a Linux server, without any strange caveats, and Microsoft provided the glue, then I'd be much happier. The same goes for any of their other products. I don't want to roll out a linux desktop across a whole company, I just want the parts to operate at a much more efficient level, and give everyone a choice.

    Unfortunately, "Windows or no calendar" isn't much of a choice.

    You know, you can fit two people in the back of a police cruiser, don't you?

  20. I did this with post-it notes. on Procurement Fraud in the IT Sector · · Score: 4, Funny

    For six years I would take a pad of post-it notes from the supply cabinet. After I had enough stock, I opened a wholesale company and sold them all back at a discount rate. Then I did the same with toner cartridges, pens, erasers, etc. Eventually I worked up to filing cabinets.

    I'm trying to figure out how to do it with the company cars, but that one's a little tough.

  21. I'm sure that this will make the IT trade cooler on LiveCoda, Real-Time Coding Competition · · Score: 5, Funny

    Next, can we have Sergei Brinn found passed out in the bathroom stall with six hookers?

  22. Re:I believe this on AOL Targets Digg, YouTube With New Netscape Site · · Score: 3, Interesting

    It is being compared more closely to digg due to the minor fact that it's pretty much a ripoff of digg, and not slashdot.
    Although, I honestly don't care about them ripping it off. If it's a good idea, and you think you can make it better, go for it.
