    F*** you. F*** f*** f*** f*** f*** f*** f*** f*** f*** f*** f*** f*** f*** f*** f*** f***! Once again, f***!

  3. Re:Origin, Jeff "The Prior" Bezos on How Bezos Messed With Texas · · Score: 1

    Actually he's building the next BC-304.

  4. Re:Surprised? on Microsoft's Patent Pledge "Worse Than Useless" · · Score: 1

    Hence why Microsoft wants other companies.

  5. Re:isn't it slow? on Procedural Textures the Future of Games? · · Score: 0, Redundant

    Yes, it's slow. I tried .kkrieger and although it was very impressive visually, it was slow and choppy.

  6. Re:You can look a hurricane right in the eye on Cassini Observes Hurricane-Like Storm On Saturn · · Score: 1

    Actually it's a reference to a recent Audioslave song about Katrina and Bush. It doesn't mention global warming at all.

  7. Re:You can look a hurricane right in the eye on Cassini Observes Hurricane-Like Storm On Saturn · · Score: 1

    ...What does this have to do with my post?

  8. Re:martian RPG on NASA Struggles To Contact Lost Mars Probe · · Score: 1

    It blocks his view of Venus.

  9. Re:martian RPG on NASA Struggles To Contact Lost Mars Probe · · Score: 1

    Yes, but what does Death of being Ground by a Mars Rover Rock Abrasion Tool think of this?

  10. Re: Hmm, and where have we heard this before on Windows Chief Suggests Vista Won't Need Antivirus · · Score: 1

    Actually, they did extend the comment numbers--they just forgot to extend the number of their parents.

  11. Re:Frivolous, frivolous, FRIVOLOUS!!!!!! on Judge OKs Challenge To RIAA's $750-Per-Song Claim · · Score: 1

    But that doesn't make it any less like a pot calling a sheet of white paper black.

  12. Re:Thank You to Ty Rogers & Ray Beckerman on Judge OKs Challenge To RIAA's $750-Per-Song Claim · · Score: 1

    Thank you.
    May your attempts succeed.

  13. You can look a hurricane right in the eye on Cassini Observes Hurricane-Like Storm On Saturn · · Score: 1

    Although I don't think this one led to 1200 dead or left to die.

  14. Re:The money...!! on Google Video Sued For Copyright Infringement · · Score: 1

    The new Napster failed because nobody wants to use a service with a name that used to mean free that isn't now. Google has advertizements and won't have to charge money.

  15. Re: #16788757 on Democrat Win May Be Good News For Internet Policy · · Score: 1
    Demanding endless recounts in the races they lost narrowly.
    Exactly that is happening in Virginia, and in NC as well IIRC. From Republicans.
  16. It's good for checks and balances on Democrat Win May Be Good News For Internet Policy · · Score: 2, Interesting

    That's good news in general.

  17. Re:Obligatory on An Open Letter To Diebold · · Score: 1
    does that mean we like Diebold now?
    No, it means they couldn't commit any fraud in plain sight. Had Republicans won Diebold would have been sued a bunch of times already.
  18. Well, considering what happened to my replies... on How Do You Make a Profit While Using Open Source? · · Score: 1

    yes, I did. I clicked the "parent" link to my replies and I got an invalid URL leading to post 2^24-1. Silly Slashdot, using 24-bit data! And yes, I know you'll be the only one to read this.

  19. Re:Brilliant idea on What Would Google Decide? · · Score: 1

    He's in there because he's taken. Literally.

  20. Re:Has anyone... on GamePro Expo's "Official Announcement" · · Score: 1

    Apologies why? Because you said "blogodome" instead of "blagodome"?

  21. Re:Brilliant idea on What Would Google Decide? · · Score: 1
    I got lucky, my Father-in-law is already dead. He was computer technology savvy, but caught a bad case of Luddite technology.
    You haven't heard of the Sarcophagus, have you? :)
  22. Re:Meaning on EA To Publish Hellgate London · · Score: 1

    Well, I think a former Westwood employee who is now at some high level at EA is trying to save the burning corpse of Command and Conquer from Generals...

  23. Ask the companies already using it on How Do You Make a Profit While Using Open Source? · · Score: 0, Redundant

    They would seem to know.

  24. Re:Right. on Is Computer Science Still Worth It? · · Score: 1

    People considering going into physics today.
