  1. Re:they should get a clue on Court Says Customers May Take IPs Away From ISP · · Score: 3, Insightful

    People can take their cell phone numbers with them so now they want to take everything with them.

  2. Re:fact on Microsoft Word 5.1: The Apex of Word Processing · · Score: 3, Insightful

    Just like Netscape jumping from 4 to 6 to match IE6

  3. Re:Site is down... on Worm Developed for Nokia Series-60 Phones · · Score: 3, Funny

    Wow, you type very well for a 4 month old :-)

  4. Re:Not that impressive on Gmail Spam Filter Testing · · Score: 1

    or PICNIC (Problem in Chair, Not in Computer)

  5. Re:Will it work on linux? on 'Cut and Paste' Is Out, 'Pick and Drop' Is In · · Score: 2, Funny

    Not only will MS support it, they'll attempt to patent it.

  6. Re:Idealism must mesh with reality... on Another Zero-Day IE Scripting Exploit · · Score: 1

    until about 2 weeks ago, I couldn't use one of the later versions of Mozilla to pay my MBNA credit card bill online because some whack-off's browser detection script misidentified by browser and said it wasn't secure enough - get bent.

  7. Re:Umm... on Google's Ph.D. Advantage · · Score: 0, Troll

    I'm pretty sure most [people looking for positions requiring a PhD | companies looking for PhDs] aren't going to be using Monster.com.

  8. church sermon tapes on Clear Channel Buys Patent For Instant Live CDs · · Score: 3, Interesting

    For years our church would have a cassette of the day's sermon available immediately after the church service. This is going back like 15+ years. Maybe it's not the same as the parent that CC is seeking. I didn't really RTFA :-)

  9. Re:In other news... on RIAA Sues Nearly 500 New Swappers · · Score: 1

    I would not *ever* *consider* buying Britney Spears stuff regardless of the circumstances.

    ooooh, call the NAACP, you're being so racist!

  12. Re:taking the high road on L.L. Bean Suing Competitors For Spyware-Linked Ads · · Score: 1

    or in Bonzi Buddy's case, it would be gorilla guerilla advertising... heh

  13. Re:It's not using the cellphone on Can Cell Phones Ignite Gasoline Vapors? · · Score: 1
  14. Re:Urban Myth! on Can Cell Phones Ignite Gasoline Vapors? · · Score: 1
    The problem with this is that the trigger won't release when the tank is full. In pump handles with catches they will release when the tank is full.

    The trigger will release even if you have your gas cap shoved under there instead of using the catches. It works, I do it all the time.

  15. Re:Upgrade video card! on nVidia Announces MXM for Notebooks · · Score: 2, Funny

    Seems strange that the vid card is the only thing holding you back on a machine that has a Pentium II and is maxed out at 96MB RAM.

  16. Re:Following this naming scheme on Welcome to the 'Plogging' World · · Score: 1

    For the math types out there: nlogn

  17. Re:Elegant on Indian Voting Machines Compared with Diebold · · Score: 1

    Well, with all the outsourcing of our tech industry there, it probably won't take too long for a couple of people to rig something up to mess with the machines.

  18. Moveable Type is so cliche on Bloggers Assail Movable Type's New Pricing Scheme · · Score: 2, Insightful

    and overrated anyway. Everyone's freakin blogs look the same with MT. Boring. It's like what Powerpoint has done to the art of giving a presentation.

  19. LED clock on The Security Risk of Keyboard Clicks · · Score: 3, Funny

    I can't even tell what freakin time it is on my LED clock from ThinkGeek, much less deciper keyboard clicks and modem blinks :-)

  21. Re:Oops, headline typo on Amateur Rocket to Carry Ham Radio Payload to Space · · Score: 1

    Sounds like something Dave Letterman would do...

  22. Re:Better than nothing on Hybrid Cars Don't Live Up to Mileage Claims · · Score: 1, Insightful

    You're still burning the same amount of gas almost! There's nothing environmentally friendly about that. The hybrid actually has worse gas mileage because the 31.5 is gas AND electricity, not just plain gas.

  23. Re:Neither do regular cars on Hybrid Cars Don't Live Up to Mileage Claims · · Score: 1

    so it's kind of like modems. My 56k modem averages about 44k.

  24. Like my CS professor said... on Hybrid Cars Don't Live Up to Mileage Claims · · Score: 1

    "Never buy version 1 of anything". The hybrids will get better, give 'em time. (Same isn't true for Windows though :-) )

  25. Re:Hmmm... on Mars & The Teachable Moment · · Score: 1
    I also hate Movie OS.

    Remember in Office Space when it shows an interface that is obviously Mac as the computer is shutting down. Finally the computer goes to a "C:>" prompt? I like the movie, but that made me mad :)
