  1. Re:Think of the DMCA ! on Artist Wants to Replace Lost Eyeball With Webcam · · Score: 5, Funny

    Actually it would be funny. She'd have to leave her eye at the counter. And then...

    Some guy - What happened to your eye, lady?
    Tanya Vlach - Movies prices, these days... They cost 10$ and an eye.

  2. Re:Human hack on Artist Wants to Replace Lost Eyeball With Webcam · · Score: 1

    More like "spy on the shell's activities".

  3. Re:I think we need to combine this story on Artist Wants to Replace Lost Eyeball With Webcam · · Score: 1

    Still less creepy than a zoom function.

  4. Re:Webcam? on Artist Wants to Replace Lost Eyeball With Webcam · · Score: 2, Funny

    You haven't used a webcam in a loooooooooong time, have you?

    They got them working at 15 fps now!

    Black out some pixels? For crying out loud, ever heard of an alpha channel?

  6. Re:That's easy. . . on Artist Wants to Replace Lost Eyeball With Webcam · · Score: 1, Offtopic

    I never understood why the borg had the Earth at coordinates 0,0,1. I mean, they didn't even know about humans before Q launched the Enterprise D into Borg space.

    Are we back to the dark ages? The Earth as the center of the Universe?

  7. Re:Is this really news? on Microsoft, Blizzard Crack Down On Piracy, Cheating · · Score: 1

    For the love of God, man, are you trying to kill this guy's life? Why are you listing all these good games, all at once? Are you insane?

  8. Re:So Microsoft... on Microsoft, Blizzard Crack Down On Piracy, Cheating · · Score: 1

    There's an Hudson's Bay Company installer for the Wii? WTF?

  9. Re:Your Movie Rights Online. on Canadian Fined For Videoing Movie In Theatre · · Score: 4, Funny

    You have the right to view our movie only once, not remember it!

    In the case of "Battlefield Earth", that would be a welcomed feature.

  10. Re:Even worse! on OpenOffice Five Times As Popular As Google Docs · · Score: 1

    World of Google, of course!

  11. Re:It will, and does on Scientists Create Easier Way To Embed Objects Into Video · · Score: 3, Funny

    You can wash my brain if you want, but only with Tide or Tylenol.

    Wait, why did I say Tylenol?

  12. Re:Unfortunate name on AMD Launches First 45nm Shanghai CPUs · · Score: 4, Funny

    I still find it funny that Apple computers now use intel Core 2 Duo processors.

  13. I don't know if it's anything like in Canada on Saving Energy Via Webcam-Based Meter Reading? · · Score: 1

    But you must not block the meter dials from view. Someone goes to check the values manually, every once in a while (monthly?).

    If you have the same kind of "spinning wheel with a mark" under the small dials, it might be easier to check for the number of revolutions of that wheel.

  14. Fix the damn CSS (or whatever) on Argentine Judges Disappear Celebrities From Internet · · Score: 1

    Can't click on the " Yahoo! Mexico" or "Google Argentina" links on the front page for some reason.

    Me thinks it's the stupid CSS or layout of the (useless) tags that messes things up.

  15. Re:Now I get it on Microsoft's "Dead Cow" Patch Was 7 Years In the Making · · Score: 4, Funny

    George Costanza works for Microsoft?

  16. Re:OLS on Lego Loses Its Unique Right To Make Lego Blocks · · Score: 1

    They can sell the standard, the logo and the approbation, much like VESA does for TV wall mounts.

  17. Re:Cheap = Good for parents on Lego Loses Its Unique Right To Make Lego Blocks · · Score: 1

    Bionicle = Lego.

  18. Re:Surprise, surprise! on The Gene Is Having an Identity Crisis · · Score: 1, Insightful

    Real scientists will know and acknowledge they don't know everything. The hacks think and try to convince you otherwise.

  19. Re:I Knew It on The Gene Is Having an Identity Crisis · · Score: 4, Funny

    You have it backwards. God doesn't code in spaghetti machine language. The FSM itself coded God.

  20. Re:So, what we REALLY need is . . . on The Gene Is Having an Identity Crisis · · Score: 3, Funny

    How long does it take to compute 42?

    Oh wait, we already have 42. What was the question again?

  21. Re:Possible Scenario on Vital Parts of Games As DLC? · · Score: 1

    I bet $35 that the kid isn't Cartman.

    Now give me my money so I go cement that final boss.

  22. Re:They're insane. on Vital Parts of Games As DLC? · · Score: 1

    I did, but then I remembered that I live in an apartment and I wouldn't have anywhere to put that yard.

  23. Re:Why make it more complicated than it really is? on Netbooks Take a Bite Out of Windows Profits · · Score: 3, Informative

    They never followed the standards before, why would they start now?

  24. Re:I've previously been ridiculed for on Researchers Hijack Storm Worm To Track Profits · · Score: 1

    Bass Fisher Extreme should monitor the bounced/spam-tagged emails on their list to stop sending them to these people.

    Total cost: 1 cent per Joe Dumbass user. And if micropayments exist to do that, then they also exist to require micropayments from subscribers. At 1 email per week, it cost someone 52 cents per year to receive the newsletter, which is half the 99 cents threshold for impulse purchases.
