  1. Yuck! on Mega Mags, Life Sized Magnetic Toys · · Score: 1
    You can also look into the new iPod accessory iCopulate which allows intimacy between mp3 players never before fantasized.
    I hope this won't lead to an "explosion" of ipod pr0n now! *shudders*
  2. Countdown to the flood of anti-April 1st posts on Trey Parker and Matt Stone Save Enterprise · · Score: 2, Insightful

  3. OSBSOD on GeNToo - Gentoo on the NT Kernel · · Score: 1
    Aptly named GeNToo, is it a step towards bringing Windows closer to open source?
    Only if I am allowed to fork and customize my own version of a BSOD. ;)
  4. ThinkGeek Ads on iCopulate Romances iPods, Executive Pong · · Score: 1

    Anyone else notice the ads running now? ThinkGeek is going all out in trying to fool the everyone. Will they spam my mail box next?

  5. Re:Security Fix on Firefox 1.0.1 Released · · Score: 1
    Does the security fix remove internet explorer?
    Unfortunately, no. You will need to install the Debian patch for that fix. ;)
  6. Re:First, protect the investment. on Building a Linux Computer Lab for Schools? · · Score: 1
    So, flame my flaming n00bness, but how do you customize a live CD distro and then make a new live CD distro out of it?
    Projects & HOWTOs pertaining to your question exist and are only a google-linux search away.

  7. Re:do something about it... on Gator CPO at the Department of Homeland Security · · Score: 1
    Where did these numbers come from?
    I'll assume that TheSync gathered that information from this link Average IQ of Countries. Google to the rescue again. ;)
  8. Ring! Ring! on The Death of the Music CD · · Score: 0, Troll

    Washington Post: Hello!
    Year 2000: Hello Washington Post! We'd like our story back!

    Really this is not news. Maybe a couple of years ago this would have been front page material but I guess its a Sunday and that excuses the posting of "News for Ners that just woke up out of a five year coma. Stuff that matters five years previously."

  9. Re:Why? on How to Install Debian on Mac mini · · Score: 2, Funny
    By not using OS X, you negate the main factor behind buying a Mac in the first place - and in so doing significantly reduce its value when compared with equivilently priced PC hardware.
    Steve Jobs is that you? Go choke on an ipod shuffle please.
  10. Dynamic Duo on Enterprise Fans Buy Full-Page Ad In LA Times · · Score: 0, Troll
    a Star Trek Enterprise fan working for the LA Times has arranged a special deal for a discounted ad.
    So I guess the other fan will foot the bill? As the saying goes, "Two heads are better than one." But in this case two Star Trek fans are starting annoy the rest of the SciFi community!
  11. Lynx may be quick... on Browser Speed Comparisons · · Score: 1
    In several tests, Lynx and Links2 were so fast that it was nearly impossible to time, as pages were often loaded faster than buttons could be pressed.
    Unfortunately Lynx is not fast enough to keep you from getting jailed.
  12. Re:Couldn't find info on the box. on DOOM: The Boardgame · · Score: 1
    Does it come with a chainsaw or do we have to bring our own?
    Don't forget to purchase some duct tape from your local UAC BX.
  13. God Mode Help on DOOM: The Boardgame · · Score: 3, Funny

    Can someone tell me how I can roll "IDDQD"? These scary imps have surrounded my marine and about to give him 666 scratches of death!

  14. Enough with the remakes already! on Disney Plans Tron Remake · · Score: 5, Insightful

    Why don't they make a sequel? There is no reason to go back and muck around with a film that doesn't need mucking around with.

  15. Same old Microsoft on Microsoft Acquires Spyware Removal Company · · Score: 2, Insightful

    1. Develop crappy exploitable browser and distribute browser for free.
    2. Refuse to seriously fix free browser.
    3. Buy anti-virus and anti-spyware companies.
    4. Sell anti-virus product to clean up after your free crappy exploitable brower.
    5. Use monopoly desktop OS position to drive-out the competition.
    6. Profit.

    Typical Microsoft.

  16. Re:IE? on Microsoft Acquires Spyware Removal Company · · Score: 1
    So i'm going to assume the first logical step is that the software uninstalls/disables IE?
    Or displays a diagram showing the user where the power plug is and how to disconnect it from the PC.
  17. Re:For starters.. on Boot Process Visualization · · Score: 1
    Well I haven't touched Fedora since its first release so I had no idea they were using that. Whether there is eyecandy or better look to the bootup stuff doesn't really intrigue me. I'm happy the way it is.
    Now I see why the Fedora way of doing a splash screen isn't really catching on - nobody else can seem to tell the difference between that and the older, crustier bootsplash.
    Or the majority of users are not interested and/or there is no demand for any implementation of splash screens period.
  18. Re:Its an awards show! on Editorial: On the SpikeTV Video Game Awards · · Score: 1

    Mod parent up. Although the AVNs are probably the only one worth watching, aslong as you have a Tivo and the remote in one hand and the other hand holding...the beer can. ;)

  19. Oscars != Serious on Editorial: On the SpikeTV Video Game Awards · · Score: 1
    Come on! If the Oscars had categories like "Best Comedy driven by Ford" or "Best Female in a Leading Role with makeup by Revlon" would you take them seriously?
    I never took the Oscars seriously before so maybe if they did add those categories I would watch...for a split second then go back to watching pr0n.
  20. Re:wrong on Editorial: On the SpikeTV Video Game Awards · · Score: 1

    [sarcasm]
    That's right, becuase we all know that crappy poorly developed video games, annoying copyright protection & activation, non-innovative sequels and of course EA are so not a disgrace to video games.
    [/sarcasm]

  21. IBM articles about improving Linux boot time on Boot Process Visualization · · Score: 4, Interesting

    Here some articles regarding booting Linux faster: Boot Linux faster and Reboot Linux faster using kexec Enjoy! ;)

    Life is the leading cause of death in America.
    That and good quality pr0n.
  23. Re:Frustrated on Boot Process Visualization · · Score: 2, Funny
    I had some really witty comments all made up and ready to go, but since the site is down people might suspect I didn't read the article....
    I thought you knew by now nobody at /. RTFA. Everyone posting here is presumed to have not RTFA.
  24. Re:Why boot? on Boot Process Visualization · · Score: 1
    You are supposed to leave them boxes on all of the time, like 99.999 % of the time.
    Unfortunately not everyone has the extra funds to run their boxes 24/7 365 days a year. Electric bill would be to high. Not to mention if the boxes are in the same room where you sleep, the fan noise is unacceptable when trying to get some rest.

    Mod Mr.Ingolfke up, that was absolutely hilarious. ;)
