  1. Re:.... alright... Why terminal? Raw socket is the on Privacy In BitTorrent By Hiding In the Crowd · · Score: 1

    Obligatory xkcd

  2. Someone call clevernickname on Quantum Setback For Warp Drives · · Score: 1

    All we need is Wesley Crusher. Can't he do anything?

  3. Re:Don't they send kids to the Vice Principal? on Student Arrested For Classroom Texting · · Score: 3, Interesting

    Don't schools have any discretion or judgment left to them anymore?

    No, they have zero tolerance rules. Or as I like to call them zero judgment rules.

  4. Re:To bad on Human-Animal Hybrids Fail · · Score: 1
    It's 'Mutant Atomic Super-Men'

    Sheesh, get it right.

  5. not so fast on USB Flash Drive Comparison Part 2 — FAT32 Vs. NTFS · · Score: 5, Informative

    FAT32 is great, unless you want to exceed the 4gb filesize limit. In which case you will need an alternative.

  6. Re:At what level of detail on The Slippery Legal Slope of Cartoon Porn · · Score: 1

    Madness.

    No, its Spartaaaaaaaaaaa!

    No really, they were down with pederasty.

  7. What could possibly go wrong? on Hardware Is Cheap, Programmers Are Expensive · · Score: 1

    Solution: Robot Programmers!

  8. Re:Damn on Why Climbers Die On Mount Everest · · Score: 1

    Since we are after all posting to slashdot, can I presume that that list might include 'furiously masturbating'?

  9. rest of sentence on Astronomers Dissect a Supermassive Black Hole · · Score: 5, Funny

    And were never seen again.

  10. Re:[citation needed] on Five PC Power Myths Debunked · · Score: 1

    It's from XKCD. Which is in turn referencing Wikipedia. Unless you are making some kind of joke I don't get, in which case *whoosh* on me.

  11. Re:don't forget to seed on Slackware 12.2 Released · · Score: 1

    I'm trying to start over, Why do you have to make it so hard! (sob)

  12. don't forget to seed on Slackware 12.2 Released · · Score: 1
    Here's the torrents

    yes I am a karma whore.

  13. Re:Well, arguably not... on Should We Clone a Neanderthal? · · Score: 1

    It's just an old wise tale carried over from the 19th century that still haunts us today (as seen here).

    I think you are thinking of an Old Wives Tale.

  14. maybe its meta on Torvalds's Former Company Transmeta Acquired and Gone · · Score: 1

    Whats really ironic is a song called Ironic with no irony in it at all.

  15. Re:Emergency transmitter didn't work on Bones Found Near Crash Site Confirmed Fossett's · · Score: 1

    Was he delicious?

  16. stupid on IBM's Teri-is-a-Girl-and-Terry-is-a-Boy Patent · · Score: 1

    My mom is named Terry.

  17. Re:Companionship on Depressed Astronauts Might Get Computerized Solace · · Score: 1
    My parents fucked up in contraception, and I was doomed to spend the rest of my life on earth. Do kids really care where they are born? It's all they know.

    Also I'll take a note from the late Arthur C Clarke, all astronauts were required to be sterilized before any space missions. So there wouldn't be any problems with babies and high radiation in space. If any astronauts wanted to have kids after the mission they would need to have some eggs and sperm frozen beforehand.

  18. Re:Like the First Hundred on First Mars-Goers Should Prepare For a One-Way Trip · · Score: 1

    The best line of that book: "Why not just send crazy people in the first place?"

  19. Re:Forbidden on OpenOffice.org 3.0 Is Officially Here · · Score: 1
    Use the torrents

    They work fine.

  20. FOSS Bitches! on Google's Chrome Declining In Popularity · · Score: 2, Interesting

    Being open source, all the best features of Chrome will end up as FF extensions. It's already happening. It will only be a matter of time before all the good of Chrome more or less absorbed into Firefox, and all the bad (google's snooping, no extensions) are left out.

  21. Re:The best solution is to... on Windows 7 To Dial Down UAC · · Score: 1

    If you're not installing Vista for enhanced security, why exactly are you installing it?

    Because it's pretty, OMG Ponies!

  22. Re:By who's standard on Algorithms Can Make You Pretty · · Score: 1

    it just means my opinions aren't shared with the majority of human beings.

    Hey man, whatever makes you feel special.

  23. Re:New shiny toys on New Nintendo DSi Announced · · Score: 1

    And I'd be willing to bet Nintendo will have a way to access the camera from games, leading to all sorts of frivolity and goofiness along the way (members of the peanut gallery are now calling for my head). So I say, bring it on.

    I just can't wait until all terrified local news outlets discover that scary pedophiles can now molest The Children with video chat as well as simple text!

  24. Re:Backwards Compatibility for Money on New Nintendo DSi Announced · · Score: 1

    Presumably this is what the "Nintendo Store" is for. Instead of letting you play your old cartridges, Nintendo will charge you $5 or $10 and let you download them.

    So I have to pay for them again? I'd love to play my old NES and SNES games on the go, but I already paid full price for them 10 and 20 years ago.

    I should be able to show them my old cartridges and get a downloadable version for free. It's almost enough to drive one to piracy. . .

  25. Re:that's nice on The Making of Bioshock · · Score: 1

    Granted it more expensive, and not optimal for shooters but you can play this on Xbox 360 or PS3 without any secureROM bullshit.
