  1. Re:who is paying for this? on Dell Offers $100 For Old iPods · · Score: 1
    I thought I was the mighty kooky king,
    But I just handed my tinfoil hat to him...

    Even with my favorite theory, he can beat my best.
    M$ makes an announcement, and he just does the rest.
    He's got crazy paranoid powers, never posts a dud.
    That tinfoil hat nerd SURE SPREADS SOME REAL MEAN FUD!

  2. Re:steve knows what we need, by hand on Jobs Previews Displays, Tiger at WWDC · · Score: 1

    I was watching the Automator demo and thought, "Wow that's cool," but I also thought, "I'd probably rather waste more time making a shell script that uses wget than I would take actually doing it by hand anyway."

  3. Re:Is Tiger still Mach based? on Jobs Previews Displays, Tiger at WWDC · · Score: 1

    The kernel is actually called XNU and is based on both FreeBSD and Mach. There's a lot more about it here.

  4. Re:I wish apple came out with displays... on Jobs Previews Displays, Tiger at WWDC · · Score: 1

    To be honest I think these puppies are meant more for graphics designers than coders. And as Jobs mentioned in the keynote address, it's easier to scan horizontally than vertically.

  5. Re:Ahhh... on DoJ - Making Data Public Would 'Crash System' · · Score: 1

    Nonsense, we all know that it's "Social Security Number Octothorp."

  6. Re:I'm suprised on New IE Malware Captures Passwords Ahead Of SSL · · Score: 1

    Inconceivable!

  7. Re:Oblig. Simpsons Quote on Supreme Court Rules Against Anti-Porn Law · · Score: 1

    The operative word here is "productive." Sex is at best one of the greatest things there is. Violence is at best a necessary evil.

  8. Re:Namig Convention on Mac OS X "Tiger" Server Previewed · · Score: 1

    Yeah, but Apple Corps did sue Apple when they went into the music market :)

  9. Re:reply on The March Towards Micropayments · · Score: 1, Redundant

    If I tell you my opinion of your challenge, will I only have to pay $0.1998?

  10. Re:It should... on Beastie Boys Respond to DRM Claims · · Score: 1

    Isn't mixed-mode where the data portion is track 1, but the whole disc is one session? Like all those games (Marathon 2, Warcraft II, Mechwarrior 2) that had the soundtrack if you put them into a CD player.

  11. Re:That is a great idea. on Should Colleges Monitor Students' PCs? · · Score: 1

    Really? I mean, I love OS X and all, but no platform is ever entirely secure.

  12. When will they learn? on Microsoft Planning on Opening Up More Source · · Score: 2, Funny

    I have nothing against Microsoft open-sourcing anything, but don't they realize that you can't have your FUD and eat it too?

  13. Re:Have you been in a reseller's shop? on Memo to Apple: Respect Your Resellers · · Score: 1

    Forget Extrans--real men use < and >

  14. Re:imagine on Xgrid Agent for Unix · · Score: 1

    You mean a Grendel cluster? Wait no--a troll-wife cluster!

  15. Re:Tactical Flexibility on U.S. Navy to Deploy Rail Guns by 2011 · · Score: 1

    They can buy some surplus cable from NERV :)

  16. Re:Haven't you forgotten something, Captain Avatar on U.S. Navy to Deploy Rail Guns by 2011 · · Score: 1

    Yeah The Honeym^H^H^H^H^H^HFlintstones was a great and original show.

  17. Re:Range on U.S. Navy to Deploy Rail Guns by 2011 · · Score: 1

    It depends on the possible rewards. The Allies killed Frenchmen in WW2, it doesn't mean that it was an unacceptable cost to take back France.

  18. Irony? on NASA Eyes Cash Prizes Of Its Own · · Score: 2, Interesting

    If NASA were to offer a prize that would actually encourage extensive development of space-faring technology in the private sector, might that not have the side effect of marginalizing NASA's importance? Not that I see it as a bad thing per se, but from NASA's point of view it would be.

  19. Re:Right on on Microsoft Sues Brazilian Official for Defamation · · Score: 1

    Actually Bush was elected by the Electoral College. Did you know that Americans have the constitutional right to vote for their U.S. Senators, but not for the President?

  20. Re:Obligatory on Star Trek: New Voyages, Downloadable Video · · Score: 1

    Actually it's been pointed out that in terms of different species, Star Trek is kind of racist--there's not a whole lot of diversity among Klingons or Romulans for example. Of course this is probably due to their allegorical origins.

  21. Re:Obligatory on Star Trek: New Voyages, Downloadable Video · · Score: 1

    Yeah but Star Trek had an interracial kiss before the soaps :)

  22. Re:zip ? on Star Trek: New Voyages, Downloadable Video · · Score: 1

    The point is so you can't watch it as you D/L :)

  23. Re:From a brazilian point of view... on Microsoft Sues Brazilian Official for Defamation · · Score: 1

    Latina tamen mater illae linguae atque melior est.

  24. Re:Right on on Microsoft Sues Brazilian Official for Defamation · · Score: 1

    Our president may be stupid, but at least he's on the wagon :)

  25. Re:You sir deserve many, many mod points. on Microsoft Sues Brazilian Official for Defamation · · Score: 1

    The IBM version is pretty decent though.
