  1. Is anyone else surprised? on Trump Accuses Google of Rigging Search Results To Favor 'Bad' News About Him (cnet.com) · · Score: 1

    Is anyone else surprised it took Trump this long to guess the net-nanny password his aids put on his internet access. Whoops, looks like he got to google his own name for the first time in 2 years.

  2. Thank goodness! on Facebook Tests "Satire" Tag To Avoid Confusion On News Feed · · Score: 1

    Finally links to infowars/Alex Jones will be marked as satire. Tired of people thinking it's real journalism or news.

  3. Re:Via? on RCMP Says Terror Plot Against Canadian Trains Thwarted · · Score: 1

    You mean the poor excuse for a rail system in Canada? Via has fallen into near non-existence in recent years. You might as well try and blow up a covered bridge out in the middle of nowhere to disrupt traffic flow.

    If anything were to happen to the covered bridge in Hartland, New Brunswick I assure you, it would be very disruptive to the flow of traffic.

  4. Re:Much more than that on Hairspray Could Help Us Find Advanced Alien Civilizations · · Score: 5, Funny

    One planet is almost entirely sugar, and there's some sort of nebula that is basically alcohol.

    Where are these wonderful places, and how soon can I get there?!!?

  5. No one could have predicted on Predicting When Space Junk Will Come Home To Earth · · Score: 1

    No one could have predicted when Duke Nukem Forever would arrive.

  6. Makes sense on Delivering Medicine By UAV · · Score: 3, Funny

    Once UAVs have delivered bombs to critical infrastructure, UAVs can deliver the things the infrastructure used to enable the delivery of. Maybe Disney can do a song about the circle of UAVs.

  7. 50% isn't that bad. on Why Has Blu-ray Failed To Catch Hold? · · Score: 3, Insightful

    50% market share isn't that bad is it? For a long time after DVDs came out VHS was still selling and renting well. Most people I know (including my parents) upgraded to Blu-Ray shortly after getting a >40" LCD.

  8. Yes, but on Hacker Claims He Broke Into Wind Turbine Systems · · Score: 1

    pics or it didn.... oh.

  9. as well as? on George Lucas to Resurrect Dead Movie Stars? · · Score: 1

    "Even if Smith is lying, it makes you wonder how long it will be until Hollywood starts to recycle actors as well as scripts"

    I think that last part should read "to recycle actors like they do scripts". Hollywood certainly doesn't recycle scripts well.

  10. Some where under a rainbow on Miniature Human Livers Grown In Lab · · Score: 2, Funny

    Leprechauns rejoice!

  11. Looking forward to the blooper reel on Scientists Need Volunteers To Look At the Sun · · Score: 1

    "CRAP! I got a coronal mass ejection right in the eye!"

  12. Standard Intern Tasks on What Can I Expect As an IT Intern? · · Score: 1

    - Doing your boss' daily quests on WoW
    - Leveling his/her level 80 characters
    - Pre-raid time prep (getting required pots, enchants, et)c
    - Tanking his/her wife/husband while he/she is raiding

  13. Re:Third option on Are Game Publishers a Necessary Evil, Or Just Necessary? · · Score: 1

    Nah it's just that anyone with an ID under 100k is wise in the ways of drive by karma whoring ;)

    I was hoping for +funny, but I'll take insightful.

  14. Third option on Are Game Publishers a Necessary Evil, Or Just Necessary? · · Score: 4, Insightful

    Just Evil.

  15. Boston has it all on Science, Technology, Natural History Museums? · · Score: 1

    Fine Arts
    Science
    Aquarium
    Natural History
    USS Constitution

    Plus MIT, Harvard, and a great live music scene. I visited for a week about a year and a half ago, and had a blast. Planning a 2 week trip in 2010.

  16. Re:Sport might just be a metaphore. on Navigating a Geek Marriage? · · Score: 1

    And "cheating" with "pr0n"

  17. In the ask slashdot submission queue: on Is Playing a DVD Harder Than Rocket Science? · · Score: 5, Funny

    "I'm currently orbiting the Earth for an extra 24 hours because of weather delays and trying to watch a DVD..."

  18. Re:Pc games easier to pirate than PS3 games on Game Publishers Pressuring Sony For PS3 Price Cut · · Score: 1

    It's already easy to pirate everything else. I've had several friends buy PS3s once they realized it will play almost anything (mp3, wmv, divx, etc) without any DRM. Plus it upscales and looks great. When you add up the price of a great Bluray player (not all are created equal), an upconverting dvd player which plays divx, and a console the price isn't hard to justify.

  19. I'm holding out hope for... on Steve Wozniak To Appear On Dancing With the Stars · · Score: 3, Funny

    a Stephen Hawking and Kenny Baker duo.

  20. Re:People would have been happier? on Microsoft To Announce Jerry Seinfeld Ads Cancelled · · Score: 2, Insightful

    "And to replace them with a ripoff of the "Mac VS PC" commercials is just sad. It'll just make them look a day late,a dollar short,and unable to do anything but rip off the Mac."

    That my friend is called honesty in advertising.

  21. Did your comment say if on Iran Announces Manned Space Mission Plans · · Score: 1

    you knew anything about Iran, or its people? Oh I guess from your comment you pretty well summarized your ignorance, and borderline racism fairly well. Sorry, my mistake.

  22. In other news... on Boeing 12,000lb Chemical Laser Set to Fry Targets · · Score: 1

    Iranian mirror shops are experiencing a massive increase in sales this week.

  23. Thank you! on The Home Library Problem Solved · · Score: 4, Insightful

    It's nice to see someone actually follow up on an Ask Slashdot question and share the end result.

  24. Re:A very interesting article on Canada Opens Wireless Industry To Competition · · Score: 4, Informative

    "I loved how they had the response of at least three different perspectives (a current telecom exec from Bell, the Allstream exec looking to go in the market, and a liberal critic) in the article without slanting the information towards a particular point of view."

    I hadn't checked to see who wrote the article, but when I read that I knew it was CBC. You should check out the online stream of the radio broadcast - great stuff!

  25. I take offense! on Causes of Death Linked To Weight · · Score: 2, Funny

    I'm a fat smoker. You insensitive clod!
