  1. How does one... on How Japan Lost Track of 640kg of Plutonium · · Score: 1

    say oops in Japanese?

  2. Re:Weather is NOT climate on Swedish Farmers Have Doubts About Climatologists and Climate Change · · Score: 1

    Exactly - and who gives a fuck what a gaggle of farmers have to say? It's like listening to bunch of dogs analysing dog food.

  3. Re:Earth is 6000 years old on Why the Moon's New Birthday Means the Earth Is Older Than We Thought · · Score: 2, Informative

    It's not hatred mate... It's pity mixed with dismay about the state of education and social disfucntion engendered in such beliefs all expressed as what would be seen as good natured ribbing if the mistake being pointed at was hmm lets say mistaking Paris, Texas for Paris, France.

  4. Re:Buggy whips? on The Koch Brothers Attack On Solar Energy · · Score: 1

    hmm - Money=Political Power in America ?
    Money=Political Power=Money Everywhere

  5. Re:So awesome. on Band Releases Album As Linux Kernel Module · · Score: 1

    We can only, for your sake, hope that this is a failed attempt at sarcasm. If not, get a pet, perhaps a low maintenance one.

  6. Re:Yes on College Grads Create Fake Tesla Commercial That Elon Musk Loves · · Score: 4, Insightful

    'Self made' is a myth, all of them had to first develop strong and binding connections with sources of capital, influence and discreet knowledge not their own. It is as much, and more in most cases, the cultivation of these relationships as it is their talents and vision that make for success.

  7. Old News on Darker Arctic Boosting Global Warming · · Score: 3, Informative

    To anyone that has been paying (not even very close) attention this is nothing new.

  8. Re:And that's exactly what I asked for. on Slashdot Tries Something New; Audience Responds! · · Score: 1

    Define 'better'.
    For me better implies an increase in utility. Current /. has a very high utility quotient indicating that a complete redesign is unnecessary and a few tweaks here and there would suffice.
    So why do it?
    Because some people are trying to justify their existence and insure their own niche by pandering to the money bags with a 'vision' to attract an greater more diverse audience and redefining the environment in which they exist. OR The money bags gave them the directive to increase the views and they are just responding to the pressure the only way they know how.

  9. Arial !??? on Jury Finds Newegg Infringed Patent, Owes $2.3 Million · · Score: 0

    I thought all documents presented in court were required to be in comic sans....

  10. Re:Both ways? on Your Phone Number Is Going To Get a Reputation Score · · Score: 0

    OH KAAAYY This post should have a Score:5 Funny but hell some people just have no sense of humour.

  11. Not a problem on Google Makes Latest Chrome Build Open PDFs By Default · · Score: 1

    Ah doan lahk Chrom, ahtohl. Trahd it. Deent lahk it.

  12. Warning! on The Academy For Software Engineering: a High School For Developers · · Score: 1

    Trust issue and cynicism trigger.

  13. San Francisco? on Is Google Building a Floating Data Center In San Francisco Bay? · · Score: 4, Funny

    They'll have to sail it around the horn or teleport it because everyone knows they only place to put a floating data centre is at the centre of the Bermuda triangle so that it can take advantage of all the free energy from the astral vortex.

  14. Re:Recruited by CIA? on Glenn Greenwald Leaves the Guardian To Start His Own Site · · Score: 1

    You forgot the FSB, who's to say he can't play well with others?

  15. Sixteen Tons on Facebook Building a Company Town · · Score: 0

    and what do you get?
    Another day older and deeper in debt.
    St. Peter don't you call me 'cause I can't go
    I ow my soul to the company store.

  16. Some one let the junior marketing guy in. on Come Try Out Slashdot's New Design (In Beta) · · Score: 1

    Ohhh well time to go...

    Ohhh - pretty colours and such
    Not so bad
    ahhhhhh sokay.....

  18. Let me see if I got this... on How Amateurs Destroyed the Professional Music Business · · Score: 3, Insightful

    When given a choice, people choose what they like. 'Quality' in what people find entertaining or pleasurable is entirely subjective. The music 'industry' has been based on restricting choice and pushing products on largely captive markets. The world has changed.

  19. Re:Superstorm Sandy? on 'Half' of 2012's Extreme Weather Impacted By Climate Change · · Score: 1

    It was no longer a hurricane nor a tropical storm, as it had become an extra-tropical cyclone long before it came ashore. It's size and destructive capacity is what got it labelled a 'superstorm', and admittedly facile if descriptive media shorthand.

  20. Re:cause and effect on 'Half' of 2012's Extreme Weather Impacted By Climate Change · · Score: 1

    That's a quite impressive hall of mirrors you've constructed / adopted to avoid reality.

  21. Re:forced voting on Is New York City Ready For Digital Voting? · · Score: 1
  22. The following comment is a lie. on Why You Shouldn't Trust Internet Comments · · Score: 1

    The subject of this comment is true.

  23. Well I've seen them before but on Ask Slashdot: Favorite Thing Out of This Year's Black Hat? · · Score: 1

    I liked the pigeons best and the rabbit is still pretty cool.

  24. 'Oh! Oh! I know! I know! on Microsoft Will Have To Rename SkyDrive · · Score: 1

    Weesh... weesh... we should name it Bob! ', the intern suggested loudly with unbridled enthusiasm.

  25. Microsoft on Nokia: Microsoft Must Evolve To Make Windows Phone a Success · · Score: 3, Insightful

    No one consciously chooses a Microsoft [product|platform|environment] on it's merits alone. If it is chosen it is largely, if not entirely, because of external factors ,the dominant of which is market dominance. Microsoft have had a terrible history of being slow on the pivot with regard to changing markets. They are in actual peril and in fear of being bypassed by more agile competitors even those with their own problems of inertia.
