  1. Re:Good deal on Performance of 64-bit vs. 32-bit Windows Dual Core · · Score: 1
    Windows 64 seems to be a good deal.

    Until you try to find 64bit drivers for your hardware...

    Sadly, that jet engine you thought you heard was actually a well-executed (and badly Underrated) joke about Windows' memory requirements soaring past your head.

    Mod parent down Redundant, mod grandparent up t3h Insightfulz0r, and have a nice day.

  2. Re:Well duh... on Why the Rokr Phone Is An Important Failure · · Score: 1

    *asks for royalties*

    *gets asked for royalties*

  3. Re:Don't worry. on Windows Vista To Come In 7 Flavors · · Score: 1

    Nevermind the spurious asterisk.

  4. Don't worry. on Windows Vista To Come In 7 Flavors · · Score: 1

    Soon humans will be chosen and bought like that. Businesses will soon choose between one that can do advanced computer tasks for only $5000 a month*, or one with only a few office skills for only $1000 or less.

    ...oh, wait...

  5. I'm sure they disagree. on UK Scientists to Create Embryo From Two Women · · Score: 1

    I can imagine the UK group telling an inquiring reporter, "Shh, this Human Patch technology is not a hack. Think of this achievement as a much-needed Service Pack®."

    That said, it sounds like a good way to head MD off early.

  6. Indeed. on ESR Gets Job Offer From Microsoft · · Score: 1

    Jesus and Moses wouldn't be on the cover of GQ these days...but you gotta admit Mr. Raymond has a slight My Name is Earl style goin' on...

  7. I agree. on Infrastructure for One Million Email Accounts? · · Score: 1

    I just wonder how the employees will handle all the "bum bum"s and "top female" pictures floating around.

    Not that I'm complaining. I bet it's hit-or-miss but I've seen some extremely interesting pictures there...

  8. Re:wow... on News Corp buys IGN for $650M · · Score: 2, Interesting
    [AD|AD|AD|AD]
    [company] has released a very cool new game called [title]. [token screenshot of box cover]
    [AD|AD|AD|AD]
    [NEXT] Page: 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9, 10, 11

    I absolutely hate that about IGN.com, too! ...where have you BEEN all my life?!? (prepares for beating from other admirers/(present|future) husband)

    The worst part is when IGN merged with Rotten Tomatoes beforehand. Since around that time, I've had to endure click-here-to-continue adpages and a first page with banners big enough to warrant that 1280x1024 flat panel I got...*sob*that doesn't show 1080p correctly like my old CRT*sob**runs away in tears*

    ...*walks back*all to see some movie reviews and stuff. Nah, I forgive them.

  9. No, NO. on Half-Terabyte Hard Drive Reviewed · · Score: 1

    That one was for the Hitachi Desktstar. Ever since Hitachi bought Hitach, they've made a point of reminding consumers about that! ;)

  10. t3h r0k3r? on iPod nano, iTunes 5, iTunes Phone · · Score: 1
    As for the r0k3r, why did they go with such a dumb name?

    Oh, don't be so hard on it. Soon it'll tell its owners what's going on around the country and what's happening in your neck of the woods.

  11. iPod nano on iPod nano, iTunes 5, iTunes Phone · · Score: 5, Funny

    Thick as a pencil and much more fun.1

    1 Do not nervously bite iPod nano.

  12. You're right... on Hitachi's Terabyte DVD Recorder · · Score: 1

    ...but at least it'll be compatible with competitor Hitach's new 500GB drive.

  13. Maybe it'll be... on Oregon Is Growing A Mystery Bulge · · Score: 0, Offtopic

    ...Longhorn. Or Blackcomb.

  14. I don't know... on Diamond Nanotubes Created · · Score: 1

    "Diamond-Nanotube Composites Are Forever" just doesn't sound like a catchy slogan. Or Kanye West song, for that matter.

  15. Ugh... on Katrina Hits the Gaming World · · Score: 1

    Grandparent is an utter troll. Said Red Cross helped me and my family relocate when a nearby fire made our place unlivable. Food, cots, etc.

    As for KtHM's parent post, +1 Informative.

  16. I'm still waiting for... on Capcom May Be Prepping Street Fighter 4 · · Score: 1

    Street Fighter IV: So Enhanced It Even Runs Linux Edition.

  17. a billion Pascals? on New Material Harder Than Diamond · · Score: 1

    I somehow doubt Michael Vick could rush through that... ;)

  18. Mod Parent Interesting, but... on Molecular Gastronomy, The Science of Cooking · · Score: 1

    ...how'd you get Internet access down there? Is it decently fast?

  19. Nah, that would be OK. on Molecular Gastronomy, The Science of Cooking · · Score: 1

    Now if they called it "l33t 5+0mz0r h4x!!1!" then I'd be really scared. (And confused.)

  20. Well... on Send your name to Pluto · · Score: 1

    ...at least this one doesn't call Pluto the planet with the 9th-fastest-growing population, or have Erik Estrada offering said share "for very, very little money!"

  21. Let's be happy... on Molecular Gastronomy, The Science of Cooking · · Score: 1

    ...that Piquepaille didn't make us click a "read on" primidi link to read the "news"; (to Piquepaille) keep it that way, please.

    Maybe he just heard of this "Food Science" stuff. ;)

  22. You'll like it. on The End of the Bar Code · · Score: 1

    It'll be Gaspar from Chrono Trigger or something.

  23. No need to worry. on The End of the Bar Code · · Score: 1

    They can always erase it and tattoo a transmitting antenna in its place.

    Yeah, radio towers are SO badass.

  24. Re:heard this on the TV a while ago... on New Mad Cow Test on the Horizon? · · Score: 1
  25. What the hell? on Ice-Free Summers Coming To Arctic · · Score: 1

    They have DSL up there?

    *scratches head in confusion*

    ...cool!

    *reads parent again*

    ...no, not cool...
