  1. Nintendo will be happy on Wii Homebrew Takes Several Leaps Forward · · Score: 1

    that the users can finally play games for their vintage gaming systems free of charge.

  2. Re:Wait... on Practical Web 2.0 Applications with PHP · · Score: 1

    I would send you obfu C code just to mess with your head.

  3. Re:Common sense? on Judge Makes Lawyers Pay For Frivolous Patent Suit · · Score: 0, Troll

    I might be cynical but I think this only happened because this certain judge wasn't offered a cut of the profit.

  4. Re:A funny but sad example on Hunting Bad CIOs In Their Natural Environment · · Score: 1

    Workers' union ?

  5. I am pretty sure on Mozilla Opens Thunderbird Email Subsidiary · · Score: 1

    another obscure IM client with a neurotic-friendly GUI will catch on in all the heavily saturated markets.

  6. Re:Yes on Is This the Future of News? · · Score: 1

    You are talking about the world where tabloids sell more copies than all of the broadsheet journals together. People want the shiniest and the loudest, not edited and professional.

  7. That is totally going to on Artificial Intelligence at Human Level by 2029? · · Score: 1, Funny

    spoil 2029 - the year of the linux for the desktop.

  8. Other genres on Videogames Doomed for a 'Comics-like Ghetto'? · · Score: 0

    I just imagined 40% of new games being romantic comedies. And whimpered.

  9. Re:3-2-1 tagged "whatcouldpossiblygowrong" on 'Friendly' Worms Could Spread Software Fixes · · Score: 0

    I noticed another trend, people who fail to notice that someone else has already complained about the presence of that tag in other comments and most other articles, even when it's actually relevant.

  10. It's not a black hole. on Laser Light Re-creates 'Black Holes' in the Lab · · Score: 0

    It's Intelligent Sucking at its best.

  11. Re:Then again on Australia's Geekiest Man · · Score: 0

    And that is why the US is the safest country in the world.

  12. Re:Ah, the 'hardcore' problem again... on An Older Demographic May Soon Dominate Gaming · · Score: 0

    You call easy, simple, primitive games more "mature" ? Even the non-family-friendly "testosterone-soaked" games are getting that annoying flat learning line, try playing GTA3, GTA:VC and GTA:SA in succession and see which one is the easiest. And "boom-fest" looks like something out of a women's magazine. Are you one of the people who leave the room when someone is watching the Simpsons ?

  13. Re:Sweet on Canon Files For DSLR Iris Registration Patent · · Score: 0

    And I guess converting it a few times between different lossy formats wouldn't destroy the precious watermark ?

  14. Re:Why buy music now? on Labels Agree On Free Music Downloads To Cell Phones · · Score: 0

    To kill competition and then actually start charging ?

  15. I'm taking a wild guess here on Mac Hack Contest Redux · · Score: 0

    that they won't use a Debian stable netinstall with properly configured iptables and choose to deploy Fedora instead ?

  16. Good, NFL on Thou Shalt Not View The Super Bowl on a 56" Screen · · Score: 0

    Let's piss of the most vocal and angry mob in the universe.

  17. It's still not the advertised on Hardy Heron Alpha 4 Released · · Score: 0

    Linux for regular people. Call me when there's good support for winmodems. Written, sadly, on Windows Vista, since any flavor of Linux becomes useless for anything other than office work without broadband.

  18. Re:Priorities on Mega-D Botnet Overtakes Storm, Accounts for 32% of Spam · · Score: 1

    See, politicians might appear quite ignorant most of the time, but SPAM really isn't a political problem. I can experimentally prove to you that making all people who randomly click on all flashy widgets and install software from unknown sources disappear will not only stop most of the botnets, it will also make everyone else's lives much happier and easier.

  19. Re:1st censorship death sentence on Internet Censorship's First Death Sentence? · · Score: 2, Insightful

    They have democracy now, no quotation marks. The people of Afghanistan have decided that they want to follow a certain set of laws as a sovereign country, how stupid those laws are is none of our business.
    But please, let's stop letting them into European countries and the USA, because those entities are also democratic, and once people who believe those laws are just are in majority due to low birth rate in most of them and high immigration rate, we will have to let them democratically choose to obey the same set of laws and make us obey them as well.
    You are mistaking "democracy" for "western set of values".
    I'm a very tolerant person, but democracy isn't about tolerance, it's about imposing the will of the majority upon everyone else.

  20. Re:12 million internet users in Pakistan? on How One Clumsy Ship Caused A Major Net Outtage · · Score: 0
    Have you checked that anywhere ? Do you know ANYTHING about Pakistan ? Because a 20 second search on Wikipedia revealed that

    In January 2007, Pakistan Telecommunication Authority reported over 12 million internet users, however the low bandwidth is a concern for most. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Communications_in_Pakistan
  21. Re:Of course men not obsolete just yet on Sperm Made From Female Bone Marrow, Men Obsolete? · · Score: 0

    The depressing thing is, as a man I can't really think of why we should be allowed to stick around. Maybe because men act out of rational reasoning most of the time while women base their actions on useless emotional agenda ?
  22. Re:How will power be provided? on Robot Composed of "Catoms" Can Assume Any Form · · Score: 0

    For every micro-node we provide you with a wonderful offer of $80 a year for iVil Overlord Insurance.

  23. I call bullshit on TSA Opens Blog — You Can Finally Complain · · Score: 0

    I've flown from Warsaw to Montreal through Heathrow in August 2007 and I had no additional screening except flashing my passport again. Unless, maybe, you're not a European Union citizen ?

  24. This is almost like Dilbert on Microsoft Launches IT Superhero Comic · · Score: 2, Funny

    Except written by middle management!

  25. Re:so much time, so much waste on MySpace Private Pictures Leak · · Score: 0

    The GNAA would be proud.
