  1. Wait until... on Today's Average Screen Resolution? · · Score: 1

    ...you see my next year's resolution!

  2. Re:Shark myth? on The Mythbusters Answer Your Questions · · Score: 0

    I don't know, but my bet is that the shark will shoot at you with its laser.

  3. Re:Think ahead on Fixing Windows Boxes that Crash After Blackouts? · · Score: 0

    It doesn't need to be a huge UPS, some software can tell Windows to go to deep sleep mode, like when a laptop doesn't have any battery left.

  4. For all my electronics on Do Detailed HDTV Listings Exist? · · Score: -1, Offtopic

    I use epinions.com because they got *most* of the details in one place. Sure, it's bloated with ads, but the reviews and customer opinions are very useful.

  5. Re:Distributed MMORPGs on Build Your Own MMOG · · Score: 0

    Well, I do think the bittorrent principle would be of use to share objects around users, especially from those who would have larger pipes.

  6. So, um... on Caffeine Prevents Liver Disease · · Score: 0

    Is this still good with decaf?

  7. One word... on Scientists Produce Fearless Mice · · Score: 0

    ph33r

  8. MOD UP on Microsoft to Require 64-bit Processors · · Score: 0

    It's worth it ;)

  9. The real question here is... on Canadians Plan to Build World's Biggest Telescope · · Score: 0

    Eh?

  10. Re:Hollywood basement ? Insufficient resolution on Hubble Zooms In On Moon Minerals · · Score: 0
    The BLAH does not have sufficient resolution for this. The biggest thing that astronauts left on the moon is on the order of BLAH, and the moon is BLAHJ BLAH away, for an BLAH size of about BLAH BLAH. To resolve this at a BLAH of 800blah, you need a BLAH BLAH with a diameter of blahm = blah * blah / blah. It would be cheaper to go and look, rather than to build a mirror that big.

    There. ungeekerized.

  11. Nope, doesn't work on Google Maps Graduates · · Score: 0

    I tried: "hooker in Montreal", and it didn't work. Am I missing something?

  12. Believe it or not on Google Declares War on Microsoft · · Score: 0
    I work in a TOP OF THE BLEEDING EDGE OF TECHNOLOGY company that still shuffle documents (read: letters, spreadsheets, powerpoint presentations and Exel graphs) around with.....Office '97. What happens when someone sends his/her curriculum in wayyyyy too old and 2000-ish Office XP Word format? Easy. They reply to the mail and ask politely to resave and resend the document in Word 97 format. Thank you for coming, please come again. We don't go out often. (hides head in hands in despair and humiliation and heads to home depot to find a solid rope to use as a tie.)

    Sure, they have the "if it's not broken, don't fix it" mentality. "And if it breaks, shake it a little" still works wonders. OK I AM OUTA HERE. IF ANYONE NEEDS ME, I'LL BE AT THE OTHER END OF THAT ROPE TIED TO THE CEILING.

  13. Does it work in UT/Q3? on Army Eyes Anti-Sniper Robot · · Score: 0

    This would be useful to get rid of campers!!

  14. I don't get it.. on Linus Says No to 'Specs' · · Score: 0

    Ok, I admit I did't read TFA, but if I remember correctly, we sent men on the moon with a computer that could maybe count as a P-133 nowadays, *years* ago. And today, huge companies such as MS have trouble putting code together to surf web pages! I remember using a computer years ago that when I used Notepad on it, the computer would BSOD right away.

  15. Call me offtopic, but... on Promoting Telecommuting During the Gas Dearth? · · Score: 0

    Instead of buying a 50000$ Prius or changing my car at all, wouldn't it be more efficient to simply kinda add an electric motor plug-in to an existing engine? Say that the total modification costs around 10000$, it's still 40000$ cheaper, no?

  16. Re:An opening on How Do You Use Your Spare Drive Bays? · · Score: 0

    Most of the time I'll arrange myself to have the top opening free so I can use it as a "handle". Pretty handy when you have to move them around.

  17. Cool! on Samsung Develops 16Gb Flash Memory · · Score: -1

    Now *more* of my my pr0n collection can follow me anywhere!

  18. I am only going to say this once on Windows XP In Your Pocket · · Score: 1, Funny

    There is NO WAY that Windows XP will be in MY POCKETS, no matter how sexy it becomes!

  19. This is all nice, but... on 6.8GHz 1TB RAM and 2TB HDD Laptop? · · Score: 0

    Does it run Linux? Or at least Doom II?

  20. Two simple words on Trusted Computing And You · · Score: 0

    Linux.

  21. So... on Walk on the Moon in IMAX 3D · · Score: 0

    Will the Google Moonbase be there? Or will the floor of the Moon be full of cheeze?

  22. Re:And yet nothing was done... on 9 Weeks to Pump Out New Orleans? · · Score: 0
    So, my question to you is this: What else was the government supposed to do to save the stragglers from their own stupidity?

    Maybe recommend that everyone roll up their pants?

  23. At least someTHING will have a job... on Space Penguin Could Hop Around The Moon · · Score: 0

    At the Google Moonbase!

  24. Re:ill avoid the linux jokes... on Space Penguin Could Hop Around The Moon · · Score: 0
    Penguins with mullets, what could be cooler?

    I don't know, penguins with lasers on their heads?

  25. Re:Eliminate the need for transportation... on Forms of Alternative Transportation to Work? · · Score: 0
    The parent should be modded as funny.

    But at a job I had a few years ago, one guy had to finish his shift at midnight and start at 8am the next day. So he never went home, instead he actually slept UNDER HIS DESK for the whole night.
