  1. Re:I hope they sue those 2 Quiznoes monsters.... on SCO Postpones Lawsuit, Now Threatening Two · · Score: 1

    Holy crap, this sounds exactly like the last convo I had with my fiance after being screamed at by this obnoxious things on a Quiznos ad. It was so bad, I logged into their website and complained (with bogus info tho, since I don't want them having my email/address/phone number).

  2. Re:If I Recall correctly... on NASA Says Mars Once "Drenched With Water" · · Score: 1
    the governor of California to suffocate in the present Martian atmosphere

    I love comments like this, because they remind me that the whole California election wasn't some weird dream or a twilight zone episode.

  3. Reminds me on See Spot Surf · · Score: 1

    This reminds me of the story about some guy who had what he called a "stud service" for dogs, but was essentially doggy prostitution. For the dog who has everything (else) I suppose, or at least a good way to keep him from humping your leg all the time. It was in a newspaper somewhere, anyone have a reference to this wonderful story?

  4. You know you need new glasses when... on End of the "Lone Asteroid" Theory? · · Score: 3, Funny
    Chicxulub


    Am I the only one that saw this and thought for a second that the dinosaurs might have been wiped out by an asteroid named Chixclub?

    lol. your sig is curiously appropriate.

    It really is suprising how many different problems it will solve isn't it???

  6. Re:oh goodie on Star Wars DVD Cover Art Leaked · · Score: 1

    Ooops, I guess the URL was in the post. Then again, I didn't read the article either, since pictures are about all I can process this early in the morning anyway. Speaking of which, the pictures aren't worth the click to go look at, except it is worth it to hear the screams of some poor French sysadmin as his machine gets slashdotted.

  7. Re:come on on Star Wars DVD Cover Art Leaked · · Score: -1, Offtopic
    The COVER ART of a DVD pack of movies WE HAVE ALREADY SEEN is not exactly "stuff that matters".


    Sometimes you just have to add "very little or not at all" to the sentence inside your head.

  8. oh goodie on Star Wars DVD Cover Art Leaked · · Score: 5, Funny
    For some reason the actual link wasn't posted (it is here

    Now if the DVDs have the scenes they talked about in one of the "making of" shows where Leia keeps slipping out of here bikini top in the 3rd (6th, or whatever the hell it was) movie, I might buy it!

  9. Thank god on SCO Says They'll Sue A Linux User Tomorrow · · Score: 1

    The sooner they do this, the sooner they can be crushed into oblivion, and the sooner Slashdot can go back to reposting "TV turns into a mirror" stories. I wonder what kind of cool stuff will be at the fire sale? Maybe an executive chair with Darl's buttprint on it?

  10. Wow on The Full Outsourcing Discussion · · Score: 1

    Gotta love the response rate to this thread, as thousands of out-of-work slashdot geeks post their comments. Also, has Compaq outsourced their tech support? I just keep having this image of one of the programmers calling Compaq tech support and hearing the phone ring next door......

  11. Re:sure.. on The Full Outsourcing Discussion · · Score: 1
    Compaq..Microsoft..Lucent... The only people whose pockets are getting lined are the Fat Cat's, not Joe Geek who just got pushed out of a job.

    True, but at least now I know where to put my resume in for nighttime janitor work. Just wait until someone leaves themselves logged in when they go home for the day muhahaha.

    Even better, a coffee pot that sounds an alarm and sprays purple dye on that person who always drinks the last cup and doesn't make another pot.

    They either get a "speaker-ectomy" or at the very least a big peice of tape so they aren't so freakin loud.

    What the f*ck is a firefox? Photoshop contest, anyone?

    The most feared animal in the forest, the Flaming Fox, or FireFox for short, runs through the forest, setting trees and other animals alight.

  15. Re:Amazing... on Real Pain Dulled In Virtual Worlds · · Score: 1
    Actually they mention that in the article:


    In collaboration with Cornell University in New York, Hoffman has built a virtual reality programme that is a simulation of the events of 9/11 designed to desensitise the patient to the events of that day.

    As long as it is used to treat people who are actually suffering from PTSD this is a good thing, but I fear it will be used in other ways too, heck I feel like the evening news already does this.

  16. Re:Wooo... on Rapid Internet Growth In Iran · · Score: 1

    To get this info, I wonder if they went door-to-door asking, "Any smuggled PC parts or pirated software here"?

  17. Re:Doesn't Really sound like a great place for OSS on Rapid Internet Growth In Iran · · Score: 1

    Plus just think, when the PHB says no one uses Linux, you can say, "But it is used by 7 million Iranians". Good PR all the way around....

  18. hmmm on Is the CAN-SPAM Act Working? · · Score: 3, Funny
    What might make a real difference, according to US Senator Conrad Burns, co-author of the bill, is international standards and enforcement.

    Bring back public floggings or at least the stocks for offenders for god sakes.

  19. Re:The solution to it all... on Today Is SCO's Deadline To Sue Linux User · · Score: 1

    Actually, I think right now it is more like him calling hit on 22, since we are all pretty much still waiting for some proof here helllooooo SCO?????

  20. Re: Real sports on Gene Therapy Creates Strong Super-Rats · · Score: 1

    What drug would you give to swimmers? I am thinking genetically engineered webbed hands/feet would be usefull however. So whould something like that be legal in the olympics? Oh and a torpedeo shaped head would be good too.

    like there is not enough garbage in space already...

    Oh my God, if we are not careful we could fill all of space with our trash!!! I better hurry and get a bumper sticker for my gas guzzling SUV to express my outrage!

    Perfect, instead of fixing our health care system here in the states we should just offer "free flights to India" instead.

  23. Re:I'm reminded... on RFID Tags For The Rich · · Score: 2, Interesting
    You wouldn't feel so bad if you entered the Gap store, and two scantily clad saleswomen arrived to try on gifts for your wife, since Gap would know:

    - You like scantily clad saleswomen

    - It is your wife's birthday the next day

    - Her size

    - You just got a raise at work

    - You never remember your wife's b-day

    - Your blood type, preferences re: scantily clad saleswomen, etc.

    Oh wait....

  24. Makes you wonder on Europe Joins Race To Send Humans To Mars · · Score: 1
    Inevitably a human will introduce microbes to the planet ... and contaminate it.

    I always wondered if life could have been brought here when someone forgot to decon their boots before they traipsed around. Heck even taking a wiz would probably let little critters loose (and don't even talk about leaving a big ol' pile on the planet).

    Actually, all you have to do is send your date of birth, SS#, bank account numbers, and credit card numbers to nojunk@scammer.ru and once they use that information to verify you really are who you say you are they will take you off of every maillist in the whole world, guaranteed!
