  1. Re:And In Other News... on Glitch Has Users Fuming, Google 'Frantic' · · Score: 3, Funny

    What's important in this case is your frame of reference.

    Mine is a Belgian waffle. With fresh strawberries and clotted cream. Mmmm.

  2. The race will soon be on... on Sony Takes on YouTube with Video-Sharing Site · · Score: 4, Funny

    First Slashdotter to upload a clip of Google's proprietary content to this site wins...

  3. garn! on EU Moving to Ban Online Hate Speech · · Score: 1

    I really hate this, and having said that, can't vacation in Belgium any more.

  4. Re:What's a whurly? on Seven Reasons Microsoft Loves Open Source · · Score: 1

    Tags are useless, so I use them, like most SlashBorg, to amuse myself and the hive - so I tagged this article 'itsacrap' - a slight Italian accent, so to speak.

  5. More Likely than Resignation on The SEC Is Getting Closer To Jobs · · Score: 4, Insightful

    If Jobs has a good lawyer, and doesn't make the 'Martha Stewart' mistake of lying to federal investigators, then the worst thing that will happen to him is a hole in his wallet.

  10. Re:Angles of angels on Second Life To Open Source Server Code · · Score: 1

    No, it pays people to first remind, fine, annoy, and if you're a real hammerhead (I served on a federal jury in a tax-evasion trial) prosecute you, and if you're completely devoid of common sense, incarcerate you.

    Now mind you, if at any point during this process, you point a gun at a cop, you're dead - but that's true even of a jay-walking ticket.

    "The gov't pays people to kill me if I don't walk inside the lines. In what way exactly is that different than murder, exactly?"

    Oh noes.

    Psst. The real secret here is that Al Gore is planning to open a huge data center.

  14. Re:US Only on Deep Impact Mission May Be Extended · · Score: 1

    Please. Let's keep Iraq out of this thread. Don't assume you know anything about my opinions on that.

    I enjoy watching NASA and some kick-ass engineers make and use functional exploration spacecraft.

    Don't ask me to talk about the manned exploration side of NASA, either. Not here.

  15. US Only on Deep Impact Mission May Be Extended · · Score: 3, Interesting

    I feel this would be a very good use of my tax dollars - getting a second mission from the same spacecraft.

    If I copy and paste this (sig for sale: "...it's most reasonable to request that someone commit a crime on their behalf?") into my sig, I've performed a trivial violation of copyright.
