  1. Re:single page link... on Can the Atrix 4G Really Become Your Next PC? · · Score: 1

    Who can sleep?!?!

  2. Re:News that matters? Really? on Linus Goes Hollywood At Pre-Oscars Party · · Score: 1

    Free food, man; probably very well prepared. Free booze, too; probably including grand scotch whiskys that I can't afford.

  3. As well as on Two Planets Found Sharing One Orbit · · Score: 0

    If the discovery is confirmed, it would bolster a theory that Earth once shared its orbit with a Mars-sized body ....'

    To say nothing of confirming John Norman and the Tarnsman of Gor!

  4. Re:This is important? on Science Channel Buys Rights To Firefly · · Score: 1

    '... how do you top Michael vs. Lucifer in an apocalyptic battle?'

    Seraphim vs. Cherubom mud wresting?

  5. Re:This is important? on Science Channel Buys Rights To Firefly · · Score: 1

    '... how do you top Michael vs. Lucifer in an apocalyptic battle?'

    Seraphim vs. Cherubim mud wresting?

  6. Re:I fucking hate summaries like this on Keys Leaking Through the Air At RSA · · Score: 0

    That's what Horton heard!

  7. Re:What about brains? on The Sum Total of the World's Knowledge: 250 Exabytes · · Score: 1

    'It's my understanding that each human brain can store roughly 4-5 PentaBytes (entheogen.com).'

    So, that's like five bytes per brain? Or does this have something to do with diesel engines?

  8. Re:Governments love power on US Seeks Veto Powers Over New TLDs · · Score: 1

    Be careful for what you wish; it may come true.

    With about a couple of hundred governments, I think the only TLD to be achievable would be .stc (squash the citizen) which is the only thing that all states seem to have in common.

  9. Re:Safe? on Private Space Shuttle Flights · · Score: 1, Insightful

    You payz yer money; you takez yer chances.

  10. Re:Texas' Murder rates on Prison Cell Phone Smuggling Out of Control · · Score: 1

    Yeah!, well ND has VIKINGS and they make the Texas gangs seem like sewing circles!
    So there ;^)

  11. Still... on Google Didn't Ship Relicensed Java Code After All · · Score: 0

    So they're just distributing copyrighted files?

    Hardly sounds much better.

  12. Re:So what GS is saying is.... on Goldman Sachs Says No Facebook Shares For US Investors · · Score: 1

    'Complete failure for who exactly?'

    We The People, perhaps?

  13. Doesn't Figure on Fed Goes Hunting For Malcontents · · Score: 0

    So, someone who's just had a death in the family is now untrustworthy because they're unhappy?

  14. Re:Kettle, meet pot, pot, meet kettle on Microsoft Slams Google Over HTML5 Video Decision · · Score: 1

    A kettle has a spout.

  15. Re:Merry Freaking XMas... on Spoofed White House Card Dupes Many Gov't Employees, Steals Data · · Score: 1

    No, they were a blessing! They weren't actively involved in screwing the citizenry ;^)

  16. Re:Can they try using it to find razors? on French Use Space Tech To Find Parking Spots · · Score: 1

    Yup. And they held on to Vietnam (French Indochina) for much longer than the US did.

  17. Old Hat... on Pay What You Want — a Sustainable Business Model? · · Score: 1

    'Can pay-what-you-want become a sustainable mainstream business model?'

    Like, e.g., most churches and Greenpeace?

  18. Re:Athletes get fined for things like this on A Single Re-Tweet Lands Chinese Woman in Labor Camp · · Score: 3, Insightful

    That's a difference in degree, not kind; not a fundamental difference, but surely much less unpleasant to undergo.

  19. Re:FIRST!!!!! on How To Profit From Planetary-Scale Computing · · Score: 1

    Well, there's money to be made from it, so, naturally, it's a resource!

  20. Re:earprints on Ears Might Be Better Than Fingerprints For ID · · Score: 1

    And don't forget Toulouse-Lautrec!

  21. Re:Maybe on The Linux Programming Interface · · Score: 1

    Because there's more than one way to do it!

  22. Re:Facebook pages for roles, not people? on The Queen Joins Facebook · · Score: 2, Informative

    or, Mrs. Mountbatten, if you prefer.

  23. Re:Well, duh on Americans Less Healthy, But Outlive Brits · · Score: 1

    Only bad tasting beer needs to be chilled.

  24. Re:Get rid of the artifact? on US Objects To the Kilogram · · Score: 1

    No; water contracts when heated up to ~4C, then expands. (Ice is less dense than (liquid) water).

  25. Re:Get rid of the artifact? on US Objects To the Kilogram · · Score: 1

    'From there on, they'll theoretically be able to deduce a perfect kilogram ...'

    But, in practice, they won't. Plus, they'll have to check their atom count against, guess what?, the cylinder in Paris. I wonder if they have a balance sensitive enough to detect +/- 1 Si atom difference?
