  1. Emulation on Piracy and the PSP · · Score: 5, Funny

    I rarely use my PSP to actually play PSP games anymore. I usually end up playing SNES or Gameboy games through emulation. That or watching porn (at least I'm honest).

  2. Achievement Whoring on Slashdot Launches User Achievements · · Score: 1

    It's what I'm doing with this post. Perhaps we should make this like Team Fortress 2, and give unlockable weapons to those with lots of achievements. Like a rocket launcher that mods down anyone near you who disagrees with you ideas.

  3. Re:That's a bargain for a doomsday device! on LHC Repair To Cost At Least $21 Million · · Score: 1

    I still got my money on the Finglonger.

    WAY more useful than a doomsday device.

  4. Re:Anonymous Coward on The Sounds of Failing Hard Drives · · Score: 1

    Just be sure NOT to delete your previous install of Wife 1.0

    Hans Reiser tried that, and we all know the story.

    THE GOGGLES, THEY DO NOTHING!

  6. Re:Gnome + KDE on Ubuntu To Pay for Upgrades To the Free Software User Experience · · Score: 1

    I agree completely. In my mind, the perfect desktop environment would be initially simple for beginning users (ala GNOME), but still have extra settings accessible in a dialog filled with sliders and check boxes for advanced "power users" (ala KDE). Case in point, Firefox. Initially, it's very basic and just about anyone can pick up how to use it. But for power users, there is about:config and a whole slew of extensions to customize the experience. This is the type of "best of both worlds" scenario a man can dream for.

  7. Re:Of course we're still alive... on LHC Success! · · Score: 1

    I was about to say you must be new here, but your UID is lower than mine...

  8. Of course we're still alive... on LHC Success! · · Score: 5, Insightful

    If I'm correct, no collisions have taken place yet.

  9. Re:Want to read every single technical detail...? on LHC Fully Documented Online · · Score: 5, Funny

    Even better explained here.

  11. Re:Thisisgreatnews! on Daily Caffeine Protects Your Brain · · Score: 1

    Looks like you spilled your coffee on your spacebar.

  12. Re:Don't Have stealable stuff on Cubicle Security For Laptops, Electronics? · · Score: 1

    Did he by chance have a red Swingline stapler? If so, was it taken away when you switched to Boston staplers?

  13. Re:with some hard work and organization on Spreading "1 in 5" Number Does More Harm Than Good · · Score: 1

    Why don't you take a seat, right over there. - Chris Hansen

  14. Re:Again? on Netscape Finally Put Down · · Score: 1

    Netscape is very much like a cat in terms of lives. Or BSD.

  15. Re:Come Again? on Microsoft to Give Away Developer Tools to Students · · Score: 1

    God, I hope you were actually drinking milk when that happened. Otherwise, see a doctor.

  16. Re:If only we could contain the wireless signal on A Look at the State of Wireless Security · · Score: 1

    This tubing system you have will not work. It's not like a big truck.

  17. Re:This is great on Google's Summer of Code Headed Down Under · · Score: 1

    I was taught to use butterflies... http://xkcd.com/378/

  18. Re:idiots on You Used Perl to Write WHAT?! · · Score: 2, Funny

    Wow, what you just said went right over my head. I bet there's some form of onimonipea for this...

  20. Obligatory Futurama on Hubble Finds Double Einstein Ring · · Score: 3, Funny

    Brannigan: "What the hell is that thing?"

    "jamming your fist into your crotch"

    I think you're doing it wrong.

  22. Re:Slow down there... on What is Bill Gates Learning From Open Source? · · Score: 1

    Since I just rolled a 20, I fart in your comment's general direction.

  23. Re:bragging rights on Intel in the GHz Game Again - Skulltrail Hits 5 GHz · · Score: 1

    Wow. No car, no TV, no home, and a small penis. Your life must really suck.

  24. Re:Perfect Name on Gaim Renamed — Now Pidgin IM · · Score: 1

    I agree. Having it be called Gaim was pretty stupid because it didn't only support AIM, but a whole bunch of other protocols. All they have to do now is change the icon from the AIM-ish one to something like a carrier pigeon (guessing that's where they got the name from).

  25. Re:SlashRating on The Pirate Bay Finds Permanent Home · · Score: 5, Insightful

    I should be modded insightful for no reason.
