  1. Re:It doesn't even require the Internet on Hacking the Presidential Election · · Score: 3, Funny

    So what you're saying is that George W. Bush is really a Democrat, trying to make Republicans look bad?

  3. Re:Voice mail sucks too on Hear No Evil, See No Evil — E-mail Kills the Phone · · Score: 1

    You could just not set up your voicemail. At least on AT&T, it'll tell the would-be voice-mailer that you don't have your inbox set up.

    Photons?

  5. Re:Well, my respect for Apple just went down a not on Broken Patent System? Google, Apple Disagree · · Score: 2, Informative
    From TFA:

    Speaking alongside Lee, Apple's chief patent counsel, Chip Lutton, wouldn't go quite so far as his Google counterpart. He said the US patent system was "not broken" and that it was "not in crisis," calling it "the best in the world". But he acknowledged that there was a "huge bubble" of patent assertions that needs to be scaled back. "The question with this bubble market, as with any bubble market, is 'Can we solve it without a crisis arising?'" he said.

    Or Mr. Sixpack will think HD-DVD is just an incremental upgrade to regular DVD, while Blu-Ray is something new and better.

    Call it Nicotoner. A catchy name means you're half way to success already!

    Then a few years later market the Nicotoner Patch, promising to finally usher in the era of paperless offices.

  12. Re:Princeton Hoax! on Random Number Generator That Sees Into the Future · · Score: 1

    But now I'm not sure if I really saw "joke" in the static or if I only saw it because I was looking for it.

  13. Re:In other words . . . on Fansubbers Under Fire · · Score: 1

    It's too bad you couldn't pay for much of what they release, even if you wanted to.

  14. Re:Single button rules on Why Apple Makes a One-Button Mouse · · Score: 1

    Doesn't Photoshop have little down arrows to indicate that the button doubles as a menu to pick other variants of the tool? Just because you have a right mouse button doesn't mean you won't miss obvious interface clues.

  24. Re:How soon we forget: webtv, iopener, audrey etc. on simPC - Your Grandparents' New Computer? · · Score: 2, Interesting
    I can't decide whether to make a "minty fresh" joke or an oral sex joke, so I'll just suggest both and let you pick whichever combination you think is funniest.

    By the way, maybe it was offered as a counterexample to the "crippled PC" marketing concept. Not only is it a toothbrush, it's also a sex toy! And it does both well, instead of one thing half as well like the computer.

  25. But why Windows? on MacWorld Expo Traffic Analysis · · Score: 0, Flamebait

    It seems to me that Macworld should host on Macs (or Unix or Linux). Anybody know why they don't? I know "there's no such thing as bad publicity", but "Macworld's WINDOWS SERVERS went down" is pretty close.
