  1. That is... on Wal-Mart's Data Obsession · · Score: 1

    ...that is...extremely....lame... I wonder, does rain increase Halo 2 sales?

  2. And still... on Twin Prime Proof Proffered · · Score: 1

    ...I have absolutely no clue what any of this means.

  3. Re:Not much. on How has the USA PATRIOT Act Affected You? · · Score: 1

    Damn it, I hear clicking and then this: "To continue chatting with your broad abroad, please enter the last four digits of your credit card for confirmation." And stuff.

  4. Re:Not much. on How has the USA PATRIOT Act Affected You? · · Score: 1

    No, it's only when Kelly is on the line. You know, the broad abroad.

  5. Not much. on How has the USA PATRIOT Act Affected You? · · Score: 5, Funny

    It hasn't really affected me. I do hear some clicking in my phone every time I talk on it, but I think that's just the phoneline.

  6. Re:Good American Programmers? on So, Who Wrote Sobig? · · Score: 1

    Isn't most virus code as a rule horrible?

  7. Kryptonite CDs? on Coating Promises Scratch-Proof CDs, DVDs, LCDs · · Score: 1

    I'm thinking not. In a month or so someone will find some easy way to scratch this CD.

  8. Good American Programmers? on So, Who Wrote Sobig? · · Score: 2, Interesting

    There never seems to be any good American programmers who write malicious code and viruses like this. Ah well, where's Kevin Mitnick? :-P

  9. Re:Video/audio sound support? on Gaim Releases Version 1.0.0 · · Score: 1

    The point of Gaim isn't to support audio/video/etc. It's just supposed to be an instant messaging program that incorporates all the major clients. That's it. It even says so on the site. Read. It's not only good for you, ...it's good for you. :-P

  10. I have the source... on Microsoft Planning on Opening Up More Source · · Score: 4, Funny

    ...it's just a bunch of "if-else" loops anyway. Millions. Although, they iterated an array once that and used a "for" loop pretty nicely...

  11. Re:Ha! you think you have it bad... on Slackware 10.0 Officially Released · · Score: 1

    Why not just flip the computer the way it lies?

  12. Wasn't expecting this so fast. on Slackware 10.0 Officially Released · · Score: 0, Offtopic

    Although, I'm sure Slack is the greatest it ever was, and won't let me down. If I had DSL, I would get it right away, but...56K doesn't believe in fast downloads. Yes, I'm still in the stone age.

  13. Re:You risk your life every day you live on Networking in the Danger Zone? · · Score: 1

    If you get shot, it hurts, but at least you might survive, the it goes numb anyway, which is why people are so damn calm while being shot. However, if you don't have a head, you're not going to live (obviously), and it's going to hurt like hell.

  14. Re:You risk your life every day you live on Networking in the Danger Zone? · · Score: 1

    Gimme a break. The Middle East is a horrible place to be right now. You have fanatics who will take you just because you're American. They don't care. And besides, who'd you rather be gunned down, or feel the pain while your head is being cut off? :)

  15. Don't risk your life. on Networking in the Danger Zone? · · Score: 2, Insightful

    Your life is worth infintely more than any amount of money. People who do this must be crazy. Do you really want to be beheaded because you want a new Mercedes?

  16. Re:As I don't have one yet... on Gmail in the News · · Score: 0

    When you get an invite, the mail says that you can keep your account when it moves from Beta to public.

  17. Robot Hall of Fame? on Robot Hall of Fame 2004 Inductees Announced · · Score: 0, Troll

    Gimme a break, what's next, "Worst Television Sitcoms with Underage Teenagers Hall of Fame!"

  18. Re:I wish I could help you... on Best To-Do List Software? · · Score: 0

    'Cause it goes everywhere, right? What if you lose your mind? :-P

  19. I wish I could help you... on Best To-Do List Software? · · Score: 0

    My TODO list consists of 3x5 cards on my desk that I usually lose, forcing me to memorize anything I ever want to do :-P

  20. Maybe on Copy-protected CD Tops U.S. Charts · · Score: 0

    Maybe the CD was just really, really good. :)

  21. Re:Not happy. on Thunderbird 0.7 Released · · Score: 1

    No, I ditched the car the first time because it didnt have an engine. Now it doesn't have a starter.

  22. Sounds cool to me. on Munich Votes for Linux Migration Plan · · Score: 2, Interesting

    Although, I think they'd be better off instead of "babying" the employees so to speak and taking such a long time to migrate. Just do it, give them courses, maybe an hour a day for a couple months. Four years seems like a long time just to convert to something extremely simple.

  23. Not happy. on Thunderbird 0.7 Released · · Score: 1, Informative

    I wasnt overly happy with Thunderbird 0.7. I downloaded, installed, and found out that it doesn't seem to want to work for me. This is interesting, considering Last night I tried to get Thunderbird 0.6 and the .tar.gz was corrupted, it only showed the "components" folder (which is hardly enough to send mail.). So, I think I'll just stick to KMail and hope Thunderbird 0.8 is better.

  24. Microsoft making AV software... on Microsoft Plans To Sell Anti-Virus Software · · Score: 1

    ...is ridiculous. It would go something like this: Microsoft Anti-Virus has deteced a virus known as "explorer.exe" which will be deleted. Good job, Microsoft.
