  1. Luddites on Google Says Complete Privacy Does Not Exist · · Score: 0, Flamebait

    I repeat: luddites.

  2. AAA? on Did E3 Just Gasp Its Last Breath? · · Score: 0, Redundant

    Is E3 anything like Triple A? Does E3 stand for EEE? Does EEE mean "everything everyone enjoys"? Cripe...not being smart enough to know everything in the world I just stumbled over E3. Maybe E3 is something I have no interest in. Why should I read further and waste my time if that's the case? Or maybe E3 is something brand new and I should investigate it. But how can I tell from two letters: E3? Slashdot should hire some experienced journalists.

  3. Re:kquade on There's a Sucker Converted Every Minute · · Score: 1

    I've been using Vista for over a year on my latest computer after having used WinXP for several years on the old computer. I haven't seen ONE DAMNED BIT OF DIFFERENCE between the two operating systems.

  4. Re:Obligatory on Dial-Up Users "Don't Want Broadband" · · Score: 1

    no one no one no one no one no one no one NOT noone, dipshit

  5. Re:I guess Ghastly's Ghastly Comic is ok, then on UK Proposes Banning Computer Generated Abuse · · Score: 1

    One occurance is a typo, but two shows your ignorance.

    There is no such word as "noone". You probably meant to type "no one".

    Unfortunately you aren't the only ill-educated person to think that noone is a legitimate word.

  6. Re:Flashblock FTW on The Most Annoying Software Out There · · Score: 1

    ALL of my web sites use Flash menus. You're out of luck, sucker, if you try to look at one of my sites.

  7. Re:Takes one to know one on The Most Annoying Software Out There · · Score: 1

    It would be nice if ZDNet would hire real reporters who know how to report the news.

  8. Re:Inevitably.. on Mormon Church Goes After WikiLeaks · · Score: 1

    The only "standard Christian stuff" in existance is found in the New Testament. All that other shit is nothing but manmade garbage that obfuscates the Christian message found only in the New Testament.

  9. Re:A friend of yours? on Post-Suicide Account Cracking? · · Score: 1

    I was going to say something about that also. But I took the time to read the postings and found yours.

    Bad, bad English. But would you believe a lot of people think that way? That's why there's so much confusion in this world. No one knows what anyone is saying.

    But, hey, I'm told that spelling and grammar no longer matter in the modern world. I guess clear thinking also doesn't matter.

  10. Robots? on America's Robot Army · · Score: 4, Insightful

    I hope none of these so-called robots are simply radio-controlled devices. Anything under human control does not rate being called a robot. (When have you ever heard of a radio-controlled model airplane being called a robot?)

  11. Re:I'm entitled to proper use of "titled" on Donkey Kong and Me · · Score: 1

    Isn't it ironic that the better communications technology gets, the more corrupt the language becomes?

  12. Robot wannabee. on Homemade Robot Patrols Atlanta Streets · · Score: 1

    Another remote-controlled device mislabeled as a robot.

  13. Where did the forests go? on Titan's Organics Surpass Oil Reserves on Earth · · Score: 1

    Obviously all of those hyrdocarbons were created by dead trees. So, are there any other signs of life on Titan?

  14. What does SMS mean? on The True Cost of SMS Messages · · Score: 1

    What does SMS mean?

  15. Re:Wait a second? on Microsoft Confirms IE8 Has 3 Render Modes · · Score: 1

    Those who can't avoid using profanity in their posts should be ignored.

  16. Re:Miles? on Messenger Probe Sends Back Mercury Photos · · Score: 1

    affairs officials think you are too stupid to understand kilometers.

    Too stupid? Makes you feel good, doesn't it?
    Many of us prefer "miles". It's a measurement we're familiar with in everyday life. We can relate to it.
  17. Re:Why oh why in black and white? on Messenger Probe Sends Back Mercury Photos · · Score: 1

    What's a "loaddown"?

  18. Re:I just love clueless polititions on Some DNS Requests Ruled Illegal in North Dakota · · Score: 1

    Polititions?

  19. Motels on "Cone of Silence" Possible Say Scientists · · Score: 2, Interesting

    Every motel room should have one.

  20. You've got to be kidding me. on Using Google Earth to Find Ancient Cities · · Score: 1

    There's no way Google Earth can be used to see ancient footpaths, cemteries, buildings and cities.

    When I try to view my house in Google Earth I can't even see the village that the house is in.

    The only recognizable features are large blurry blobs and some of the small blobs.

    If ancient people lived in blurry blobs, then Google Earth may be of some help.

  21. Trend? on Thousands of Adult Website Accounts Compromised · · Score: 2, Funny

    I hope this is the beginning of a trend: hack all adult sites and cause them as much trouble as possible. The world doesn't need that filth.

    Besides, it would be payback for taking over all of the home computers in their attempt to sell their crap.

  22. Re:Ethenol increases mileage??? on Auto Mileage Standards Raised to 35 mpg · · Score: 1

    Why the fuck are my postings always scored "1" whereas inane attempts at humor by the Linux boys always rate a "5".?

  23. Ethenol increases mileage??? on Auto Mileage Standards Raised to 35 mpg · · Score: 1

    "...the legislation will mean that over the next dozen years auto companies will likely build more ...vehicles that can run on 85 percent ethanol"

    Given that an automobile gets LESS mileage from ethanol than gasoline, how does producing more vehicles that use ethanol increase average mileage?

  24. Re:Anonymous King Sours on Slashdot on Researchers Sour on Vista Service Pack 1 Performance · · Score: 0, Flamebait

    Linux/Unix arrogance raises its ugly head again.

    Face it, child, Linux et.al. will never compete with Microsoft's Windows.

  25. One more step on NY Rejects E-Voting, DOJ Trying to Force the Issue · · Score: 1

    Forcing states to use electronic voting machines is just one more step in taking this nation away from its citizens.

    One side benefit is rigged voting machines will preclude allowing Mexicans to vote in the United States. Illegal aliens with New York drivers licenses won't be needed.
