  1. Re:*BUY* more? on Birmingham To Buy More, Not Less Open Source · · Score: 1

    Free as in freedom, not free as in beer. Where have I heard that before?

  2. Re:Simple Child Care on School Bans 'Tag' · · Score: 1

    Starship Troopers.

    The book, not the movie. Definitely not the movie.

  3. Re:Missing info on Deprecating the Datacenter? · · Score: 1

    Seller has feedback of 0. Forget it.

  4. Re:Not really that serious on Microsoft Bracing for Worm Attack · · Score: 1

    No, it's a sweet, fortified wine originally from Portugal.

  5. Re:Just watch MTV Cribs on Kazaa Agrees to Pay $100m to the Record Industry · · Score: 1

    Yes, but in a fews years they'll be on VH1 Behind the Music and you'll see how they lost it all.

  6. Re:A cantilcle for leibowitz on Radioactive Warning for Future Generations · · Score: 1

    You mean, THEY'RE screwed. In which case, screw 'em!

  7. Re:Imagine the losses... on New Piracy Loss Estimate · · Score: 1

    But Gene gets paid to watch those...

  8. Re:But... on Forget Expensive Video Cards · · Score: 4, Funny

    Easy, you just need a big enough hammer.

  9. Re:Nothing to see here on Vonage Puts VoIP 911 Caller on Hold · · Score: 1

    You could put your eye out with that, kid!

  10. Re:200GB of DVDs? on MPAA Files Lawsuits Targeting Major Torrent Sites · · Score: 1

    Unless, of course, the OP meant he bought retail movies on DVD because he previewed them via BT and wanted the full product, in which case he bought about 15, estimating from the prices on amazon.co.uk.

  11. Re:Heh on Fight Tooth Decay with Electricity · · Score: 1

    Or at least silver amalgam. Thank you, I'm here all week!

  12. Re:Author's name on The Future is XHTML 2.0 · · Score: 0

    It would be even better if he was in Congress.

  13. Re:Truly bad product timing or economic pressure? on Sony Kills off Aibo, Qrio, Qualia · · Score: 1
    I would suggest that the best thing to keep you profitable is to keep your employees happy and offer them a positive, stimulating workplace in which to grow.

    There were plenty of happy, stimulated people in dot-com companies in the late 90's.

  14. Re:Corporate Citizens on Disney Buys Pixar · · Score: 2, Insightful

    But they can't vote yet. At least not officially.

  15. Re:Is Ajax all win-win on Asynchronous Requests with JavaScript and Ajax · · Score: 1

    I wish I had mod points for this. I'm a big proponent of the right tool for the right job, and Ajax isn't always the right tool, especially considering the parent's points.

  16. Re:Way to Stand up for us all on Google Won't Pay Bell South · · Score: 5, Interesting

    Given the details in this story: Feds seek Google records in porn probe, I'd say they are definitely not evil. At least not at the moment.

  17. Surface changes only on Open-source Overhauls Patent System · · Score: 5, Informative

    From a quick scan of the article, it appears the changes will affect searches for prior art only (which is a good improvement), but will not address the deeper problem of patents being issued for things like business processes. (One-click, anyone?)

  18. Re:Conflicts with other studies on Burned CDs Last 5 years Max -- Use Tape? · · Score: 1

    So, a more reasonable estimate can be achieved by splitting the difference, right? That, let's see, 26 to 102.5 years. Sounds good to me.

  19. Not So Useless on US Draw Up Rules for Space Tourism · · Score: 1

    New Mexico, actually, according to TFA, and the Virgin Galactic website.

  20. Re:If you are at DeVry on Learning Java or C# as a Next Language? · · Score: 1

    Why not learn the binary language of moisture vaporators? And maybe pick up Bocce on the side?

  21. Re:Experiment Proposal on Chimpanzees Beat out Children in Reasoning Test · · Score: 1

    Get your stinking paws off me, you damned dirty ape!!!

  22. Handy... on Atari 800 XE Laptop · · Score: 5, Funny

    I love the error list right by the screen. Windows machines should come with that. Of course, it would need a bigger monitor...

  23. Re:I KNOW WHERE THE VOWELS WENT! on Court Finds For Student In Web FOS Case · · Score: 2, Funny

    So what you're saying then is that American English is 18th Century leet-speak? Fascinating.

  24. No reg link on White House Cease & Desists to The Onion · · Score: 4, Informative
  25. Standard /. comments on Company Claims Patent Over XML · · Score: 0

    Cue all the comments on patenting breathing, 1s and 0s etc. etc.
