  1. Well... on Breakthrough May Revolutionize Microchip Patterning · · Score: 5, Funny

    Generally I throw my sandwiches away when they get a film on them.

  2. Re:AT&T Billing on iPhone Bill a Whopping 52 Pages Long · · Score: 1

    This is not AT&T wireless, this is Cingular. They bought the AT&T name.

  3. Re:litigation muscle on Why Make a Sequel of the Napster Wars? · · Score: 1

    What monetary losses? I was under the impression that everyone was complaining that music sales GREW during the past decade, despite piracy. Which is it gonna be, Slashdot?

  4. Re:state==public domain? on DUI Defendant Wins Source Code to Breathalyzer · · Score: 2, Funny

    Hey, you wanna take a stroll with me on the lawn of the White House? It's really pretty this time of year. It's public property, ya know.

  5. Don't misunderstand on True Random Number Generator Goes Online · · Score: 4, Informative

    True random number generators have been around in hardware form for a while based on a number of different processes, not quantum only. But this is being offered to the community at large, who may not have the means to procure or pay for a hardware solution.

  6. Wait... on True Random Number Generator Goes Online · · Score: 5, Funny

    Why do I keep getting 42?

  7. Thanks, but... on Mitochondria and the Prevention of Death · · Score: 5, Insightful

    I don't want to troll, but I prefer not to get my science from MSNBC and other mainstream media sources.

  8. Re:Interesting problem on IPhones Flooding Wireless LAN At Duke · · Score: 5, Funny

    That's preposterous. Summer is when teachers return to their coffins to rest. Who would the students learn from?

  9. Re:sigh on IPhones Flooding Wireless LAN At Duke · · Score: 3, Funny

    Hey guys, no breaking the fourth wall!

  10. Re:springy properties.. on Springy Nanotubes Could Make Artificial Muscles · · Score: 4, Funny

    If your erections are remarkably springy, I strongly advise you to stop posting and go see a doctor. You two have a lot to discuss.

  11. Re:Why are we working for Artificial Muscles? on Springy Nanotubes Could Make Artificial Muscles · · Score: 2, Funny

    Yes, but that is just you for one.

  12. Re:Cellulosic? on America's First Cellulosic Ethanol Plant · · Score: 1

    Cellulose to Ethanol Plant would be dandy. It could be a Celtic Plant or something.

  13. Cellulosic? on America's First Cellulosic Ethanol Plant · · Score: 4, Funny

    What the hell kind of adjective is that? It's bullshity.

  14. Re:What.....?! on Blogging Is 10 Years Old · · Score: 1

    If you check the Firehose you can find all the articles you could ever want to get your grubby little hands on.

  15. Re:sounds familiar on Identify Galaxies Using Spare Wetware Cycles · · Score: 4, Interesting

    It does seem as if they're looking for a consensus on galaxies. I've been doing this for about a week now and I swear up and down I've seen some of the same galaxies more than once. I'm pretty sure another thing they're looking for is that YOU agree with yourself. If one day you think it looks like an edge on spiral, and another you think it looks like an elliptical that's slightly skewed, then they're probably going to throw your data out or at least make you keep looking at it until you make up your mind.

  16. Re:cewl on Identify Galaxies Using Spare Wetware Cycles · · Score: 1

    Gah, you got me. It's been years, but someone finally got me.

  17. Re:More Importantly.. on Are Marketers Abandoning Second Life? · · Score: 1

    Unfortunately, I am consistently unable to reach the manufacturer.

  18. Backwards Compatibility on Sony CEO Confirms Limited $499 PS3 Stock · · Score: 1, Offtopic

    Does anyone know the status of the backwards compatibility on the new PS3 model they're coming out with? Because I heard they were thinking of ditching it at some point. Will that be happening in the 80 gig model?

  19. Re:That's the difference! on Japan Bans Use of Web Sites in Elections · · Score: 0

    It's a lot easier to govern a country that's more than 10 times smaller than the US.

  20. Re:That's the difference! on Japan Bans Use of Web Sites in Elections · · Score: -1, Flamebait

    Or perhaps there's simply a nation more apathetic than the American one?

  21. Re:Golf Clap on 360 Back-Compat Updated Again · · Score: 1

    Please Don't Feed The Trolls.

  22. Re:duh on Linux Creator Calls GPLv3 Authors 'Hypocrites' · · Score: 3, Funny

    Hush! Our lord and savior is speaking.

  23. Ah, hyposcrisy, yes. on Linux Creator Calls GPLv3 Authors 'Hypocrites' · · Score: 4, Funny

    Yeah, I hate it when people hypocritically force their ideas of free software on others. Thank goodness Linus is here to save us from that!

  24. When I was a kid... on E3 Previews - Metroid 3 and Super Mario Galaxy · · Score: 4, Funny

    I would find flowers and then try to shoot fireballs, or I would find a feather and try to fly. Now I am a very depressed man in his mid 20's. Mario ruined my life.

  25. Re:Who Cares? on The Psychology of Facebook Examined · · Score: 3, Funny

    I don't know if it's a good thing to find a new mother online...
