  1. Best quote from TFA on UK Child Abuse Investigators Resent Being Charged For ISP Data · · Score: 1

    Gamble compared CEOP's work to transport police, who are allowed to travel free on trains. [He said:]

    "They won't have to buy a ticket to get on the train - and you compare the train system to the online network; they won't pay or have to cajole or convince the conductor to give them the information about the threatening person who's in the carriage down the back"

    A person with no command of analogy should not be allowed to hold down a desk job.

  2. May I respectfully suggest the damn TV? on MS Silverlight To Stream Obama Inauguration Events · · Score: 4, Insightful

    Oh my God, turn on the damn TV, it'll be on every frakking channel. I am so sick of techies having hissy attacks because every damn thing isn't instantly streamed to their iPhone or twittered to their PSP.

  3. Re:Err... on Apple Sued Over 'Lacking' Macbook Display · · Score: 1

    I mean sure that level of pedanticism is tolerated in some forums

    It's pedantry, actually...

  4. Dupe, surely on NASA Reconsiders DAWN Mission Cancellation · · Score: 4, Funny

    I'm sure I read somewhere on Slashdot that Vesta has been pushed back to 2007.

  5. In other news... on Scientists Create Supersolid From Helium · · Score: 3, Insightful

    ...expect to see the next generation of Apple PowerBooks constructed from Helium-4, "the world's strongest metal".
