  1. dont waste your money on Prototype Rollable Paper-like Display Ready Early · · Score: 1

    I got one and couldn't get it to go through the printer. Sheesh, what a crock.

  2. Check out the rf on that one on Experimental 4G Phone Service Faster Than Cable · · Score: 1

    In other news, 3 japanese scientists found vaporized inside their car. Eyewitness accounts state it was as if they had been inside a microwave traveling at 20 kph.

  3. Mmmmmmm... cow on Microsoft Lashes out at Massachusetts IT Decision · · Score: 1

    Carve me a slab will ya Mr. Ballmer? I'll fire up the grill.

  4. Beer goggles on Nanotech Coating Prevents Fogging · · Score: 1

    Wow, I've never driven with un-fogged beer gogs before. This is going to be great!!

  5. Re:Something must be done! on Accused Zotob Worm Author Says Money Was Motive · · Score: 1

    If you outlaw money, only outlaws will have money.

  6. As Nelson would say on Report Claims Men More Intelligent Than Women · · Score: 1

    "Ha-Ha!"

  7. Um why? on GMail Sign-Ups Via Mobile · · Score: 1

    I still don't get all the hype about gmail. Buy a 120G hard drive, and put a web server on it - you'll find it way more useful, and fun.

  8. It's from roadtripping aliens on Water Flowed Recently on Mars · · Score: 1

    They stop by mars all the time and piss all over the rock formations.... if you look closely at the picture, you can see the name "Krozan rulez" dribbled into the sediment.

  9. I've worked for both on Uneducated IT Managers, and How to Deal? · · Score: 1

    The know-it-all jackass was the worst. He was smart, and had good knowlege of the tech end, but that was it. I like the managers that are good people managers. They might not know the tech end all that well, but when you ask them to do something about the tech wiz in the corner cube that smells like a butt all the time, they get results somehow. Yes, that's based on a true story. When people can't work together, that's just as costly as a boss that needs babysitting.

  10. HELLADS on Laser Cannons Coming to an F-16 Near You · · Score: 3, Funny

    High Energy Laser Area Defense System

    I think Gasseous Optical Nuetral Area Defense System would have been a better name. What do you suppose would instill more fear in the enemy?

    "Run for your life! The HELLADS are coming!" ...or

    "Run for your life! The GONADS are coming!"

  11. Very interesting on Shuttle Delayed Due to Cloudy Skies · · Score: 1

    So the shuttle cant land on a cloudy day, but my 727 will try to land at O'Hare airport in a torrent of rain and windshear. Is this simply lack of design in the Shuttle, or does it reflect unsafe flying conditions?

  12. Just use ogg for chrissakes on Yahoo! Launches Audio Search Beta · · Score: 1

    which music format would you like? Something for Windows, or something for Windows, or maybe Windows or perhaps Windows? With *this* music search you have a *choice* see?

  13. Obfuscation in action on Cisco Warns of Stolen Web Site Passwords · · Score: 1

    Ya know, Cisco took it up the ass in security issues the last two weeks and they are *still* trying to make this all sound like business as usual. They need to concentrate on security and a little less on capitalism.

  14. hollywood downsizing too? on Hollywood Going Digital and 3D · · Score: 0

    Not to mention all the wads of cash they will save by only needing voice overs.

  15. who suk wang? on South Korean Scientists Clone Dog · · Score: 1

    For chrissakes, how do you pronounce that name, and does he get beat up a lot for it?

  16. Under a rock the last 20 years? on The 'DOS Ain't Done 'til Lotus Won't Run' Myth · · Score: 1

    "The rumor being that Microsoft would intentionally break competitors' applications with each release of DOS, to give a competitive advantage to its own applications while the other company scrambled to work around the block that Microsoft had inserted."

    Rumor eh? I suppose the fact that Microsoft has been in court for the last 20 years over this type of thing is rumor also?

  17. scary shit on Space Shuttle to Receive Emegency Repairs · · Score: 1

    "The International Space Station's Canadarm2 robotic arm will position Discovery mission specialist Robinson underneath the shuttle so he can pull the gap fillers out."

    Translated....

    "We're going to dangle this dude under the shuttle by that funky arm so he can yank out the tile spacers left in by that jackass in maintenance. We hope no one sneezes because if the arm lets go, Robinson will be orbiting the earth on his own for some time"

  18. Already been done. Capitalism go home. on Rating System for Open Source Software · · Score: 1

    http://freshmeat.net/ Pick any project. Look where it says rating. This is a measure of how much the software blows. Look underneath the rating and you'll see popularity. This measures how many people blew it. Go to work.

  19. iow: US now reeling from outsourcing whiplash on Google and Yahoo Creating Brain Drain? · · Score: 1

    So let me get this straight... since the early 90's, companies in the U.S. began ousourcing jobs to almost anywhere that they could get a third world streetwhore to type "Hello World" for 15 cents a day:

    - Hooker got paid
    - MegaCorp saved tons of ching and Downsized (tm)
    - Grads said "fuck I.T." I'm going into Management.
    - Decade later MegaCorps can't find employees to go around.

    Seems like perfect "causality" to me. WTF were they expecting?

  20. In other news on Can Cell Phones Damage Our Eyes? · · Score: 1

    25 year old wo/man aggresivley driving SUV while bitching on cell phone causes 25 car pile up and cites sudden loss of sight in one eye due to cell phone microwaves as the cause. Lawsuit ensues, Lawyers win.

  21. Re:Images of bird impact and debris on Debris Seen Falling Off Shuttle During Launch · · Score: 1

    And what was the last thing to go through the bird's mind as it was struck by the shuttle? It's asshole.

  22. Not surprising on USA to Pass Science Crown to China · · Score: 1

    We've downsized and outsourced just about everything except the bean counters and now you want to know where the technology is?

  23. Wait till they go on sale on China Releases 2nd generation MIPS Chip · · Score: 1, Troll

    We will see them in Walmart piled from ceiling to floor with little yellow smiley faces saying "we roll back price. you buy mips now. we own all your base."

  24. who you calling immature? on Microsoft Frowned at for Smiley Patent · · Score: 1

    You big fat stupid head!

  25. backup concerns on Basics of RAID · · Score: 1

    Raid is big storage for cheap - especially SATA Raid. A hardware card can be had for under 300 bucks for a 6 unit LSI. For a neat experiment, try Linux software raid booted from a Knoppix 3.9 CD. On a regular IDE subsystem, you can have your raid 5 which is independant of the os layer. The big concern is backing up that big 3 drive, 320G raid device once you fill it up. Especially if your a corp and you want to level 0 all the invested time/money that is laying on that device. It can get quite pricey, and Amanda will not span a level 0 to multiple tapes.
