  1. Watch out... on Awesome Pics of CERN's Large Hadron Collider · · Score: 1

    ...that thing gives helicopters cancer.

  2. Re:Remember BnetD on BlizzCon 2008 to be Televised · · Score: 1

    You mean like WoW? Playable on OSX...

  3. Re:Smiling down. on George Carlin Dead of Heart Failure · · Score: 1

    Joe Pesci, looking for him.

  4. Re:WAAGH! on The Red Team Wins · · Score: 1

    All Orks is equal, but some Orks are more equal dan others.

  5. Re:I disagree. on The Red Team Wins · · Score: 1

    Silly Eagles fan, go back into hiding.

  6. Re:I disagree. on The Red Team Wins · · Score: 1

    One game does not a trend make.

  7. Breaking in on Ask a Studio Head How To Get Into the Movie Business · · Score: 0

    Which one of these types of people most easily gets the attention of a studio exec:
    -The PA/wannabe director who is really good at getting coffee
    -The director who has a list of short film fest awards
    -The director who funded a feature length indie flick, that wasn't as well received as the short-film director's movies
    -Some other person who doesn't fit into these categories

  8. Re:n = 15 on Consumer Reports Gets Its Game On · · Score: 4, Funny

    Hell, that's 15 more people than usually test a finished project for most gaming sites.

  9. Re:Pro Vs Anti on The Effects of Censorship — a Tale of Two Websites · · Score: 1

    Hmm, someone needs to look at Ad hominem arguments, or maybe not, they seem to be quite skilled at them.

  10. Depends... on For CS Majors, How Important Is the "Where?" · · Score: 1

    ...on if you want all the rows in the table or not.

  11. Re:China Olympics on China Allows Access to English Wikipedia · · Score: 1

    Godwin says hi.

  12. Re:Nucular... on Talk to This Year's Quirkiest Senatorial Candidate · · Score: 2, Insightful

    Isn't this a bit of a weighted question?

    "Are you in favor of nuclear energy, or are you afraid of it?"
    "I'm against nuclear energy"
    "Ha! Nuclear fearing member of the sheeple!"

    How about "Are you for or against nuclear energy, and why?"

  13. Re:Oh christ. This is NOT phreaking... on Teen Phone Phreak Targeted by the FBI · · Score: 1

    Thanks for posting this, I'm glad I read the comments before I posted a response.

    Prank phone calls isn't phreaking, even if you faked where the call was coming from.

  14. Re:No more programming on High School Robotics Competition Kicks Off · · Score: 1

    This is partly misleading. The 15 seconds (now 30) has been completely autonomous in the past, and isn't this year. Keep in mind autonomous wasn't even added until 2003, where autonomous meant very very little, it has gotten bigger since that first year, though admittedly it has varied from year to year.

  15. This seems like... on Army Buys Macs to Beef Up Security · · Score: 1

    The opposite of a self-fulfilling prophecy. The army is now using Macs? Time to start cracking Macs...


    This doesn't seem like the answer.

  16. A Vote For Fluxx on What Is Your Game of the Year? · · Score: 1

    I completely agree with Fluxx, it is an amazing game that can go on for hours of fun. The only problem I have with the game is sometimes a player just wins, sometimes the pieces fall together where a player just has the right cards, and doesn't even need skill in the game. To take from MtG, there's no "counterspell". Also, Game of the Year is usually a game from that year, Fluxx has been around for a bit. Though if I have to take a vote, I'll go Devil Bunny Needs a Ham, or Kill Doctor Lucky.

  17. Re:And here is me... on Media Research Exec Says Music Industry Is On Its Last Legs · · Score: 1

    But...but officer! It was only 4:32 long!

  18. Re:ringtones?!? on Led Zeppelin Agrees To Digital Distribution · · Score: 1

    Oh god, please please, absolutely NO Stairway. (as ringtones)

  19. Re:It's all just a misunderstanding. on Microsoft Should Abandon Vista? · · Score: 1

    I haven't tried dual screens yet because my fiancee stole my second monitor for her computer


    Time to end the relationship.

  20. Re:Six years too late on NBC to Offer Free Video Download Service · · Score: 1

    We do not talk about U****T! It doesn't exist. What's Enn-Eff-Oh? I don't know...no idea...

  21. Re:the value of best buy's service plan on Best Buy Accused of Overcharging · · Score: 1

    Do you have life/health/dental insurance? People don't seem to complain too much about paying for that (provide they work somewhere that provides that service), I think the same is true for our gadgets.
     
    Insurance companies make money on all the healthy people that pay to be protected. Best Buy makes money on all those good units that no one breaks, but just like with health insurance, it's good to have when you need it.

  22. Common Tech Support Nightmares on Blame Your Mistakes on Technology · · Score: 5, Informative

    I work for a company that makes software that is used for navigation, and there are a good amount of tech support calls complaining about how the "program sent us down an unmarked dirt road!" They don't seem to realize that they drove themselves down the dirt road, on the suggestion of a computer. I think we've all seen our GPS's be off by a bit, some people are missing the fact that nothing is perfect, especially not a box with a tiny screen.

  23. No false advertising on Apple TV "Barely Watchable" · · Score: 1

    "...approaching the look of standard-definition broadcast TV"


    Well, they didn't name it Apple HDTV.

  24. Re:PS3 on First AACS Blu-Ray/HD-DVD Key Revoked · · Score: 0, Troll

    Yes, all 10 of them.

  25. Re:Red Sox suck!! on Mathematician Predicts Yankees To Dominate · · Score: 1

    Have fun being a target for planes...
