  1. Re:SETI@Home is a terrorist plot on The Universe Damaged By Observation? · · Score: 1

    Duh. Didn't you know?

    SETI= Secret Exploitative Terrorist Initiative. @Home!

    I mean really. It pays to at least *glance* at the EULA...

  2. Don't worry, we're all safe on Rootkits: Subverting the Windows Kernel · · Score: 1

    ...After all, we press Ctrl-Alt-Del before logging in, which protects our password! What more could we possibly need?

    As someone who spends all day working in a bunker for security reasons

    Read:

    As someone who lives in my parents' basement for reasons of financial security

    Of course, nothing this complicated would ever get past the security folks but I can dream...

    Read:

    Of course, this is too complicated for my parents to understand, not to mention too expensive, so it'll never get past the folks.

  4. Fighting for the skies on Microsoft and Google Fighting for the Skies · · Score: 1

    ...did anyone else hear the sound of a diving biplane when they read the title? zooooooooom. tat-tat-tat-tat. Shoot those Yahoo! (TM) bastards out of the skies!

  5. Re:oh my fucking god. on Sixth DebConf Ends in Success · · Score: 1

    Mundane? What if the women are Debiant? Debiant Debutantes even? I smell a video deal.

  6. Re:Inherant contradiction on Google CEO Confirms Online Payment System · · Score: 1

    The love of money, not just money itself, is the root of all evil.

  7. Re:Hey! on Hackers, Meet Microsoft · · Score: 1

    No, Symantec (Or at least Norton) is Mr. Pink.

  8. Re:No kidding on Keyboards are Good; Mouses are Dumb · · Score: 1

    We're comparing shovels to screwdrivers here, folks.

  9. Re:My Cunning Plan on FBI Conducts Feasibility Study on Project Sentinel · · Score: 1

    No! Wait... you can't!

    We have committed to completely revolutionize low-risk high-yield intellectual capital and authoritatively engineer quality materials while maintaining the highest standards!

  10. Re:Hmmm on Bird Brains Explain How Humans Learn to Talk · · Score: 1

    Who came up with the names for the parts of the brain? Basal Ganglia, Medulla Oblongata, Corpus Callosum, etc? Sounds like characters from a D&D game.

    That's because many medical words derive from latin and greek. Many of the names from D&D games are latinized to sound more "ancient".

  11. bloated and .pst... on E-mail As the New Database · · Score: 1

  12. I guess it's settled... on Minority Report UI For The Military · · Score: 1

    In tech, we often find ourselves referring to the Hollywood Operating System
    That's HOS for short. Compare it to the underwelming experience we have using our respective 'normal, every day' operating systems, which I will call Bitter Reality Operating Systems.
    Time and time again, our experiences with Windows, Macintosh and Linux don't live up to the glamorized HOS we see on TV. I guess it's settled then... HOS before BROS.

  13. You decide... on Recovering Domains from Negligent Registrars? · · Score: 5, Funny

    Because the moderators are either:

    +5, Optimistic

    or

    -5, Naive

  14. "written using a word processor worth 50 points"!? on Computer Program Makes Essay Grading Easier · · Score: 1, Insightful

    From his Intro to Sociology Course Outline:

    "There will be one paper based on a combination of Internet and library resources that must be written using a word processor worth 50 points."

    If this is any indicator of his understanding of grammatical rules, I pity his students.

    Question: How many points is your word processor worth?

  15. As far as I'm concerned... on Why One Man Got a Guerrilla RFID Implant · · Score: 0, Offtopic

    ...they're all a bunch of fruitcakes. *rimshot*

  16. Re:Enimies of Linux on "Enemies of Linux" Trying to Undermine OS? · · Score: 1

    Verily I say unto you to you that I will smite these competitors and throw them down from their high place.

    The Leg bone's connected to the ... Heart bone.

  18. When in Rome.... on New Intel Trademark Filed · · Score: 1

    This is obviously the export only version. In Rome, a re-branded, but functionally identical processor will be available.

  19. Just Remember.... on Does Microsoft Cause Lower Software Prices? · · Score: 1

    Correlation is not causation.

  20. Wait just a minute... on More on Apple/Motorola Joint Cell Phone Venture · · Score: 1

    ...my /. reading would have gone down, and my grades would have gone up.

  23. Re:Space Elevator on President Bush's Money For Space Cometh · · Score: 1

    The question is not whether we can have a space elevator. The question is, can we have a space elevator with muzak.

  24. Forget finding the cure for cancer... on Google Flips Back to Groups Beta (Again) · · Score: 1

    ... what we all really need to do is read alt.cancer.die.die.die.
