  1. Re:MISTERIOUS on MPlayer Developers Interviewed · · Score: -1, Redundant

    lyke omgZ!11!11111!!!!! i di'dnt notice that or n e thing! lolz! [I'm sorry, I think I'm in a bad mood and therefore am starting to sympathize with others...]

  2. ...aha! on Inventing the Telephone, Independently · · Score: 1

    Fancy that...issues with copyrighting. I never would have imagined such a thing!

  3. Plans..? on New iPods on the Horizon · · Score: 2, Funny

    Actually, I've heard there's plan for an iPod with integrted e-mail functions...but, it's just a rumor, I'm sure *shifty eyes*

  4. Re:Prepare... on Software PVRs Becoming Tivo Killers · · Score: 1

    Mod:
    +1, Oddly Appropriate
    +1, Impeccable Timing

    (see above post...)

  5. Well... on Video iPod Oct 12? · · Score: 5, Funny

    There's kind of a way to do that now...if you put a bunch of frames in and scroll...but, well...this would be a lot more convenient.

  6. Fun, fun, fun... on Open Source In Public Sector Meeting Opposition · · Score: 1

    Coming soon: TV anchors proclaim that Linux is a devil-worshipping cult and should be outlawed in all of New England.

  7. Oh, fun... on VirtuSphere Immersive Virtual Reality · · Score: 0, Redundant

    And I don't suppose that sounds anything like a hamster wheel. Next we can tie chocolate in front of our heads to motivate us to go jogging. Sweet!

  8. Re:Arr! on Learning GNU Emacs, 3rd Edition · · Score: -1, Offtopic

    Yes I am going to waste my karma on this:
    Why is the parent modded "flamebait?" Show some respect...this day only comes around once a year.
    Scurvy dogs...

  9. Wikipedia's Feeling are Hurt... on Wikipedia's New Archnemesis · · Score: 1

    If you look up uncyclopedia on wikipedia, it says:

    "Uncyclopedia, which aims to be the 'encyclopedia of politically incorrect non-information', is a humorous parody of Wikipedia, although Uncyclopedia claims the reverse."

    Sounds like blatant denial to me...

  10. Progress... on Blu-Ray DVDs Hit 100 GB · · Score: 1

    That's good...but isn't going to make it a hell of a lot more popular with the general public...

    It'll still be a while before this is in wide use, if it ever is.

  11. Re:Yes, but... on Gameboy Emulator Released for PSP · · Score: 0

    The real question is: Does it run Doom 3?

  12. Re:Final? on Newest Star Wars Reviews Suprisingly Positive · · Score: 2, Funny

    Maybe it depends on how well this one goes over...

  13. Er... on Black Hole Birth Detected this Morning · · Score: 5, Informative

    Wasn't there another slashdot article a few weeks ago about how blackholes don't exist? I think it was talking about this report.

  14. Obligatory Song Quoting... on Microsoft 'under attack' On All Fronts · · Score: 5, Funny

    It's the end of the world as we know it...

    ...and I feel fine.

  15. Re:Should be easy... on Australia Trials Phone To IP Service · · Score: 2, Funny

    wtf mate?

    Actually...I highly doubt many people around here have actually ever seen that endless amusing flash cartoon...

    There goes my karma...

  16. Re:Talented on Phishers Using Keystroke Loggers · · Score: 4, Insightful

    That's not necessarily true...some people do "bad things" simply because they get pleasure from doing it. Maybe the enjoy the challenge?

    Plus, if they have enough skill to phish efficiently and successfully, then they can probably get a job somewehere.

  17. Re:Giant Cell Phone Tower? on Space Needle To Become WiMax Antenna · · Score: 5, Funny

    Maybe they'll try to disguise it like a giant tree...

  18. Keep the Drugs of the Streets... on Safari Passes the Acid2 Test · · Score: 2, Funny

    I'm glad to see it passed...so many browsers today fall in with the wrong crowd. The media is ruinung their minds; it makes them think that doing drugs like acid is okay. I salute David Hyatt for having the care and concern to watch out for these poor directionless browsers...he's their only hope.

    ...sorry, I couldn't resist.

  19. Re:XP Import wizard on Lessons Proprietary Software Can Teach Open Source · · Score: 1

    There is one called PC Relocator by a company called AlohaBob. I've used it many a time...it's quite useful.

    A link to the company's site is:

  20. India-China Relations on China PM Wants to Rule Global Tech With India · · Score: 1

    A related story I caught via Google News:

  21. Hmm... on China PM Wants to Rule Global Tech With India · · Score: 0, Flamebait

    I wasn't aware that India was so technically advanced...

    Lately a friend of mine's been complaining about how the tech support at her workplace has been outsourced to India. The reason she's unhappy is because they never really seem to understand much about technology...even when she does manage to contact someone who speaks non-broken English.

    What great Indian software developments do the Chinese speak of?

  22. Wait... on PearPC Trying to Sue CherryOS · · Score: 5, Funny

    Obligatory corny fruit joke:

    There's not a valid suit there...it's like comparing apples to oranges!


    Badum-chh!

  23. Er.... on UN Wants To Regulate Internet · · Score: 1, Funny

    I know this is odd and far off...but couldn't such a thing lead to an internet form of communism?

  24. Re:...What? on LinuxPPC64 Contest · · Score: 2, Informative

    They realized it was a dupe and decided to do away with it...executioner style...*cough*

  25. Er... on Nintendo's Next Console Revolution Will Have WiFi · · Score: 1

    I'm a big Nintendo fan, but it seems like the main motivation behind this is trying to show up their competitors. Both Sony and Microsoft have consoles that enable online-play, and Nintendo just needs something to try and take that to another step. This might also cause problems with interference...when I had an older wireless phone, the frequency used to screw up my WiFi...as do some microwaves...they might be safer sticking to wired connections...
