  1. Dupe of a joke! on Google Adds Satellite Imagery to Maps · · Score: 0

    Isn't this a dupe of an April Fool's joke? And I could've been on the satellite photos if I had only believed...

  2. Looks fine to me... on Gigapixel Tapestries & Gigadecimal Pi · · Score: -1

    Why do we need anything more than the low-res picture that they already have? Going super-high-res simply magnifies the imperfections. Art isn't meant to be enjoyed with your face pressed up against it.

  3. Re:This isn't an april fools joke guys. on Microsoft Sues 117 Phishers · · Score: 0

    It has to be a joke. No article on Slashdot about Microsoft would actually be positive!

  4. See ad on USB Fundue Set · · Score: 0

    Wow, I never saw this coming...considering I've seen the banner ad quite a few times...

  5. The first believable thing I've read all day on Trey Parker and Matt Stone Save Enterprise · · Score: 0

    "We're also gonna re-do the opening title sequence," Stone revealed. "Record a new theme -- something bombastic, action-oriented. Y'know, something that isn't, like, totally gay." Silence would be better than that song...

  6. Re:*THE* Authority for all april fools pranks on Auto Code Commenting Software, Free Chairs · · Score: 0

    There's nothing about the Pope punk'n us...

  7. Re:Why is it Slashdot... on iCopulate Romances iPods, Executive Pong · · Score: 0

    welcome to the Internet, the World Wide Web, where time has no meaning

    Oh dear God, don't tell me it will be April 1st forever??? NOOOOO!!!

  8. bzzt on iCopulate Romances iPods, Executive Pong · · Score: 1, Funny

  9. Re:Not april's fools on Gmail's Birthday Presents · · Score: 0

    Only if the butler is Jeeves from Ask Jeeves...

  10. Finally... on Scientific American Gives Up · · Score: 0

    It has been a rough morning, but I'm happy that the April Fool's jokes are over, and that I finally get to read a legitimate article. Bye, Scientific American.

  11. I call BS on Say 'Cheese' to Google Satellite at 10AM · · Score: 0

    It is raining here -- how are they going to see me? Or does Google have infrared cameras on that satellite? I bet they can see through houses! Talk about Spyware...

  12. Re:Where can we get the history of slahdot? on The History of Mozilla Firefox · · Score: 0

    We often get the history of Slashdot -- they're called "duplicates"...

  13. Re:Well.... on Government Finishes Internet Study -- 7 years late · · Score: 0

    Yes, the US taxpayers "did get it right in the end" :)

  14. Re:Go play the only good clasics on In Space No One Can Hear You Sigh · · Score: 0

    Don't forget Space Quest :)

  15. Re:Methodologies and the lack of it on 95% of IT Projects Not Delivered On Time · · Score: 0

    First of all, the report focuses with Candian firms.

    Not really:

    The report -- called IT Priorities -- is culled from a survey of 1,400 IT decision makers from what are described as mid-sized companies in Canada, the United States and Britain.

  16. Longer than... on How Long Do You Want Digital Media To Last? · · Score: 0

    I'd like my media to last longer than it'll take the web site to get slashdotted...whoops, too late.

  17. Re:It always stuns me on GTA3 and Vice City now Online Multiplayer · · Score: 0

    Area wise, Canada is the second-largest country. Population-wise, Canada is a distant 37th.

  18. Re:Fantasy and reality on Senator Clinton Slams GTA · · Score: 0

    "Hey! This guy needs a peppermint-flavored, striped, lubricated, lubber!!!" or whatever the Indian behind the counter yelled out to everyone...

  19. Precedent on Supreme Court Takes Hard Look at P2P · · Score: 0

    From myway
    The trial court in Los Angeles and San Francisco-based U.S. Court of Appeals for the 9th Circuit based their decisions on the 1984 Supreme Court "Betamax" case. The justices ruled Sony Corp. (SNE) couldn't be sued for copyright infringement if some customers used their VCRs to make illegal copies of movies.

  20. Gratuitous Simpsons paraphrased on What's Next At Apple · · Score: 0

    "And....starwipe!"

    "Dad, you know there are other transition than starwipe!?" [snip] "I'm taking my name off of this project."

  21. Re:apple and sony on What's Next At Apple · · Score: -1

    Sony, the company that fell behind drastically in MP3 players to Apple? Who do you think they are, HP?

  22. Re:Advertising on What's Next At Apple · · Score: 0

    I can come up with a few reasons...

    The ROI for marketing wouldn't be positive for the other products.
    The rely on word-of-mouth and the "coolness" factor
    They want to focus their marketing resources on IPods
    They don't want to alientate their core users

  23. Re:Firefox versus IExplorer on How the Secret Service Cracks Encrypted Evidence · · Score: 0

    I've never had a problem w/ the WPost, and I hit that site frequently.

  24. Re:It's only a simple tool! Use your knowledgebase on Professor Finds Fault with MS Grammar Checker · · Score: 0

    "I certainly wouldn't tell my students to use it if I was a professor."

    were a professor :)
