  1. Nobody BUT MY BANK should have MY BANKING INFO.

    PERIOD!

    You should have it, too.

  2. They've done studies... on Linguists Out Men Impersonating Women On Twitter · · Score: 1

    They've done studies, you know. They say 65.9% of the time, it works every time.

  3. Re:The sound I want on Electric Cars May Be Made Noisier By Law · · Score: 5, Funny

    Just put a few playing cards in the spokes. Problem solved.

  4. Re:kucinish is a crank on 35 Articles of Impeachment Introduced Against Bush · · Score: 1

    Correction... They won't get much done when the Republicans continue to (threaten) filibuster everything that comes down the pike.

  5. Re:OK... If this jackass doesn't deserve it... on 35 Articles of Impeachment Introduced Against Bush · · Score: 1

    Well, duh... All you've got to do is get a little some some on side from a consenting adult.

  6. Re:Metallica, the flip-flop band of metal on Metallica May Follow In Footsteps of Radiohead, NIN · · Score: 1

    Marty Friedman was Megadeth's guitarist, not Metallica's. I think you meant Kirk Hammet.

    I'm with you on this, though. They totally lost me when the Black album came out. And then they got me kicked off of Napster to boot. I have not, and will not, buy a Metallica album again.

  7. Re:Why not use ten dimensions but make them bigger on String Theory Put to the Test · · Score: 1

    Dammit! You beat me to it. Very nice. :)

  8. Re:ummm no on Adult Film Industry Moving To HD DVD · · Score: 2, Funny

    Actually, the Internet was a factor back then, too. It's just that at that point all the boobies looked like this: (.)(.)

  9. In other news... on Adult Film Industry Moving To HD DVD · · Score: 1

    In a remarkable coincidence, software engineer Mike DeKoker has also chosen HD-DVD as his favored high definition DVD format. This decision was made independently of any other external factors, including anything he may or may not have read on Slashdot lately. Really. He didn't even RTFA for fear it would bias his decision.

  10. Re:Tailgating on Detecting Tailgaters With Lasers · · Score: 1

    Oh, so *you're* the reason why gas is so expensive.

  12. Re:I for one... on Zango Caught in Lies About MySpace? · · Score: 1

    I'm glad I'm not the only one. It must be Communist propaganda.

  13. Re:Radical Ergonomics on Shake Hands with the Zero Tension Mouse · · Score: 1

    While I agree fully with what you say, I don't see this mouse as being a radical departure from the traditional mouse. It's not like that god-awful trackball contraption that won't stay dead.

  14. Aha! on Writing on Standing Water · · Score: 0, Redundant

    Finally a legitimate way to 'P' in someone's pool!

  15. Bastards... on Is SETI@home Where Your Cycles Belong? · · Score: 2, Funny

    I was a few weeks shy of reaching 10,000 units for SETI@home when the bastards did the switch to the BOINC model. I will never forgive them for that. I'll show them and not name my first born Seti.

    I've now decided just to power down my system and save the energy.

  16. Re:Cancer resistant... on Cancer Resistant Mouse Provides Possible Cure · · Score: 1

    This (my post) contributes nothing to the thread but, nice. Very nice. :)

  17. Snoogins on How Many People Work in Your Internet Department? · · Score: 1

    What the fuck is the Internet?

  18. Re:Hey, its better than Linux on Microsoft Vista Info Leaked · · Score: 1

    Actually we've got 2.0, 2.2, 2.4, and 2.6 each with dozens of sub versions. We've also got people running non-production kernels (2.[2n+1]) again with dozens of sub versions. Most Linux distros also tweak the kernel here and there. Multiply each of the aforementioned versions by all the possible hardware configurations because we all know you're a chump if you run a stock kernel. That's a lot of different Linux versions. There are a SHITLOAD more versions of Linux then there ever will be of Windows versions.

  19. Re:What about Opera, Safari, OmniWeb, etc? on Another Look At Mozilla's BugFix Rate · · Score: 1

    What is this non-sense that you speak? Alternative browsers? Poppycock!

  20. Re:NOT a COPYCAT - see "Windows NT 3.5" on Vista's Graphics To Be Moved Out of the Kernel · · Score: 1
    A couple of things:
    • CreateProcess is a user-mode function. How can it be low-level?
    • It would be more correct to say that CreateProcess takes a single window parameter, and its a trivial parameter at that. It's a single parameter that suggests how the main window (if one should be created) will be displayed. The bulk of the other parameters in STARTUPINFO define parameters for IO redirection and console (which, by definition is non GUI) attributes.
    • CreateProcess does not suggest window creation. Window creation is entirely up to the process that is being created.
    • Why is it an "idiotic and juvenile system architecture" to support a window parameter? Windows was initially designed to be a GUI based operating system. That was the point. Are you suggesting that they remove this parameter and break countless software?

    I must say, this is one of the funniest /. comments I've seen in a while. Great job.

    Here's to correcting the worlds grammar one person at a time.

    Wouldn't that be the world's grammar? :)

  24. Re:Flexibility on Ask John Smedley About Star Wars Galaxies · · Score: 1

    The answer to question 1 has been answered. All ADK (anti-decay kits) objects will be converted into something that will allow you to change professions. It will have a one-time usage and you will be dropped back to CL1 for the new profession. Search the forums for more details.
