  1. Re:THe Real Quesion is... on When Are You Dead? · · Score: 3, Funny

    Don't be so pessimistic. Always look on the bright side of life!

  2. Re:Misleading Headline on US Government Withdraws IANA Contract From ICANN · · Score: 4, Interesting

    provisions reflecting heightened respect for local country laws

    This is the scary part for me, at least to the extent that it takes the sort of country-specific blocking that Twitter and Blogger are doing, and the sort of The Pirate Bay blocking that countries are doing, and bakes them into the requirements of doing any sort of business with a domain name on the internet.

    Otherwise, yeah, seems reasonable.

  3. Re:Bugs? on Server Names For a New Generation · · Score: 1

    Bugs? You must be kidding, there are no bugs in this software.

  4. Re:Profit! on Rob Malda (CmdrTaco) Joins the Washington Post · · Score: 1

    Massive Cache of Underpants Found in Washington Post Newsroom; New Hire CmdrTaco: "No Comment"

  5. Re:"Grudging acknowledgement?" More like hypocrisy on How Publishers Learned To Stop Worrying and Love Zite's Aggregator · · Score: 1

    Embrace, extend, et cetera.

  6. Re:What? on Majorana Fermion May Have Been Spotted At TU Delft · · Score: 0

    Perhaps, but there are some women I'd still love to perform "high energy physics experiments" with, any night of the year. ;)

  7. Re:The more things change the more they stay the s on Microsoft Launches Windows 8 Consumer Preview · · Score: 1

    After I saw the old Ballmer ad, I can't keep a straight face when I see Reversi.

  8. Re:Another reason on Eric Schmidt: UN Treaty a 'Disaster' For the Internet · · Score: 1

    ...and one or two of your less willing, longest-serving partners won't even let you deliver that.

  9. Re:nice. on Users Spend More Time On Myspace Than Google+ · · Score: 1

    +1

  10. Oy. on Santorum Defends Robocalls To Democrats · · Score: 1, Flamebait

    Rick Santorum is a terrible dirty trick, so this sort of thing comes naturally to him.

  11. There are no technical details. on AMD's Piledriver To Hit 4GHz+ With Resonant Clock Mesh · · Score: 4, Funny

    Cyclos is the only supplier of resonant clock mesh IP.

    There are no technical details. It's intellectual property, so it's powered by pixie dust, mana potions, and lawyers. Can't get more meaningful than that.

  12. Re:My Open Letter to Chris Todd on Open Letter By Eric S. Raymond To Chris Dodd · · Score: 1

    I'm sticking with Barret Obama. His is the RANGE WE NEED.

  13. Re:No Pictures? on IBM Researchers Image Electrical Charge Distribution In a Single Molecule · · Score: 5, Funny

    It was a naked molecule, all alone. If we don't know its age how can we be sure the pictures are even legal?

  14. Re:Yeesh on YouTube Identifies Birdsong As Copyrighted Music · · Score: 2

    Monsanto were apparently among the first to mass-produce LEDs, for which I am forever grateful.

    For their seed asshattery, less so.

  15. Re:Companies will advertise with patents, not tech on Push Email Suspended On iPhones In Germany · · Score: 1

    "Only our sweetPhones(R) combine Call Waiting with our patented whizBang(TM) technology (because our unpatented whizBang(TM) technology would get us sued to our very own layer of Hades)!"

  16. Re:The new equation on A Small Glimmer of Hope For Faster-Than-Light Neutrinos · · Score: 2

    When we remember to include the Denon cable and compensate for its effects, the actual equation comes out to:

    E = (MC^2 * (1 + (($M - $P + $D) * $D) / L ) + ( Ic/Ir )) ^ dem

    Where:

    D = Denon cable
    dem = number of demons released

  17. Re:Do not track? on Internet Giants To Honor the 'No' In 'No Tracking' · · Score: 1

    "We're not customizing our ads, we're developing our flagship advertising product based on individual consumer preferences obtained through our patented market research."

    *clears throat*

  18. Re:Easy answer on Internet Giants To Honor the 'No' In 'No Tracking' · · Score: 1

    The correct answer is QueryPremiseException: assumed wife was getting beaten in first place.

  19. Re:Googloid on Google Heads Up Display Coming By the End of the Year · · Score: 5, Funny

    Otherwise you are a lesser bing.

    I see what you did there.

  20. Re:New Sign in the Doctors Office... on Doctors "Fire" Vaccine Refusers · · Score: 1

    Agreed. I'd get myself and my kids (if I ever dare have any) the usual suite of vaccines, but the docs can keep their flu ones. They're a public health risk wrapped in a moneymaking scheme inside a dud (sorry, Sir Winston Churchill).

  21. Re:Surprise!! on New Horizons: One Billion Miles From Pluto · · Score: -1, Offtopic

    He's too slow then. YouTwitFace Holdings has already set up FarmVille kiosks (24hrs of unlimited play for 50 Facebook credits!), OLED celebrity tweet billboards (brought to you by Sony), and cute 1-inch-wide plastic Like and follow buttons on every geological feature (all connected via WiFi).

  22. Re:THC on LHC Powers Up To 4 TeV · · Score: 4, Funny

    Don't bogart the bosons, maaan!

  23. Re:How can I get a job when the links are borked? on Venture Capital in Detroit, Among Other Places (Video) · · Score: 1

    They're smarter than they let on. Y'see, if you can't figure out that the group needs an IT professional, or how to contact them about it, you need not apply.

    It's a job posting disguised as a job board. Genius!

  24. Re:Stealing a quote from someone else on "Liberated" Tunisia Still Censoring Websites · · Score: 1

    "The creatures outside looked from pig to man, and from man to pig, and from pig to man again; but already it was impossible to say which was which."

    (On a side note, can someone explain the flag icons on the comments? Are Slashdot staff trying to usurp the moderators' job? Do mods simply suck at it that much that they need outside help? Is it generic DMCA/"intellectual property" "protection" bureaucracy crap?)

  25. Re:This of you who refuse to read French on From the Nuremberg Toy Fair, a New Linux System For RC Cars · · Score: 3, Informative

    Word. Their ideas are intriguing to me and I wish to subscribe to their newsletter.
