  1. great to see this invention! on Robotic Suit For Rent In Japan · · Score: 1

    so that means when i'm old, i get to have one of these probotector suits? after all i'm close to death then, with nothing to lose. that will be so much fun stomping brats and pesky dogs.

    seriously, i would make sure these suits can't do much damage. when i was a kid, an old guy punched me in the stomach while i passed him running in the train. guess how that might have turned out if he had one of these battlemechs.

  2. atheros is in, excellent on Linux 2.6.27 Out · · Score: 2, Funny

    i've been running my girlfriends new laptop on ndiswrapper drivers for the past year because so far they have been the most painless. it's great to see the new atheros drivers integrated.

    it seems these days it doesn't take long until a new driver finds its way into the kernel, and i'm not being sarcastic. one year between obscure hardware release and driver in kernel is fine.

  4. First I was afraid, I was petrified... on Steve Jobs Patents "The Dock" · · Score: 1

    First I thought that it's sad that Apple patents such a good idea worth cloning... and then I realized it might not be so bad after all. It enforces Apples competitors to think of something that is even cooler.

  7. Re:So, how are those sour grapes? on Microsoft Programming Contest Hacked and Defaced · · Score: 1

    No offense. It's three flatscreens and a _massage_ chair where it becomes ridiculous.

    Congratulations on nobody being able to afford you. Let's see how affordable you become when you lose your current job - which you never will, because you are a "skilled craftsman", like the rest of your team.

    Yours truly,

  8. DevSta? Seriously? on Microsoft Programming Contest Hacked and Defaced · · Score: 3, Insightful

    This is what we need in the programming world, more developers with an ego complex. "Star developers", way to go, when a part of skill lies deeply in being able to communicate and organize oneself in a community or company.

    "Star developers" sounds like these people need three flatscreen monitors, a massage chair and a personal makeup assistant to be happy.

    The reason why no serious programmers will turn up at this event is the same reason, why I'm not at this event: I am busy doing serious, real life code. I have no time for marketing shams.

  9. Profiling for Ads on Google Profiling Social Network Users · · Score: 5, Funny

    I hope that all this uncomfortable profiling is really going to improve the ads I'm going to see.

    But how will I know when it works? Maybe when they start selling penis shrinking pills.

  10. Re:Microsoft incorporating Open Source? on Microsoft Adding jQuery To Visual Studio · · Score: 1

    Aww come on, "Troll"? That is a really miserably failed attempt at humour I did there.

    I wish comedy writers could tag their comments with a different color so it is not interpreted as serious information. Totally kills the joke if people start to believe that you ARE stupid enough to mean it. ;)

    Holy moly, Microsoft actually integrating Open "ewww" Source with one of its products?

    Will you cut the innuendo, please? Christian creationists have a hard time following already, using repelling sexual imagery is not going to help!

  14. Re:The article is wrong! on Unemployment Hits New High In Silicon Valley · · Score: 1

    i notice there seems to be a strong correlation between digit count of slashdot user id and originality of post.

    please stop mentioning programmers from india everytime there seems to be a problem. in germany, the turkish guys are always responsible for everything. in france it's the arabs. it tires me to hear this unreflected lamenting over and over again.

    and of course there was some element of truth to what i said. but it's less a plan than a necessity.

  15. I am from Europe on Is Open Source Different In Europe Than In the US? · · Score: 2, Funny

    I like to think of myself as someone who cares a lot for Open Source.

    Then again, I like to think of myself as someone who likes to distance himself from the masses.

    This article discomforts me.
