  1. We still keep tabs on Voyager? on Interstellar Pioneers Facing Termination · · Score: 0

    i think that unless either voyager finds intelligent life or a comet/astroid heading for earth, they should cut funding for them. either that or minimize the program to very bare operations. there's a fine line between eeking out info from old programs and irresponsibility. nasa needs to get a better perspective on its goals and focus more resources on fewer projects.

  2. Nerds everywhere crap their pants on Torvalds Switches to a Mac · · Score: 0

    does this count as linux scandal?

  3. All the info and history, none of the urine smell! on NYPL Digital Gallery Open to Public · · Score: 1, Funny

    i dont even have to get off my fat ass to borrow a book and get mugged on the way back!

  4. And yet somehow, noone gives a shit on GlobalFlyer Completes Record-Breaking Flight · · Score: -1, Flamebait

    its just another rich guy with nothing better to do than waste time and money to do something noone cares about. hey, here's something he can do with all that time and money: donate to charities. i'd be more impressed by that than some stupid record.

  5. Obligatory joke about porn sites on A Concise Guide to the Major Internet Bodies · · Score: 0

    there, i've done my part.

  6. They've been doing that with porn for years on Old Film to DVD Transfers Examined · · Score: 2, Funny

    that industry's way ahead of hollywood on this one.

  7. I like how they blindly follow any mac design on Intel Flaunts Mac mini Knock-off · · Score: 1, Funny

    its just really pathetic how they just copied mac's design, only changing the color and adding some lame ass stripe on it. apple should make their next computer a piece of shit and see if intel tries to follow suit.

  8. Robots that watch kids? on Microsoft Robots to Watch Kids · · Score: 0

    will they call it namblot?

  9. When to quit? on When Should You Quit Your Job? · · Score: 0

    I guess when you start spending more time posting on slashdot than working.

  10. quali-what? on QA != Testing · · Score: -1, Offtopic

    come on, most of us are using microsoft. we dont know nuthin bout no qa. what a foreign idea.

  11. Drive by spamming on RFID + Dart gun = DartMail! · · Score: 5, Funny

    now spammers can cap your ass in the streets. "get a bigger penis, muthafucka!"

  12. Dont even need to take the guys wallet anymore on Visa To Push Swipeless Credit Cards · · Score: 1, Insightful

    once someone figures out how to bypass the code, all they need to do is walk by you to steal your card. and besides, how lazy do you have to be not to take out your card and swipe it? seriously: 1) take card out 2) swipe. wow, that was so hard, i need to create an elaborate method so that i dont even need to move my fat ass anymore.

  13. Wish EA would do the same on Troika Games Closes · · Score: 0

    thats why i get all the flamebaits.

  15. What an incredibly awesome... on 42nd Mersenne Prime Probably Discovered · · Score: 2, Insightful

    ...waste of time, money and processing power. what kind of use would this have, other than just knowing it? its like winning a eating contest: a completely useless achievement, plus it just turns to poop.

  16. I hope my account is ok on More Holes Found in T-Mobile Website · · Score: -1, Offtopic

    ...hey! i didnt make a 4 hour call to 1800-man-love.

  17. Scientists find definition of obviously on Humans are Causing Global Warming · · Score: 0

  18. I thought linux was free... on IBM Puts $100M Behind Linux Push · · Score: 3, Funny

    they'll just end up having one guy go around installing red hat all day and blow the rest of the money on coke and whores.

  19. Its pronounced "nukular" dummy... the s is silent on Can Terrorists Build a Nuclear Bomb? · · Score: 0

    the way the us has handled domestic security, i wouldnt be surprised if one were to be made and brought here. there is surprisingly little security in protecting the sale/distribution of bomb material out there, its just a matter of time before you see a mushroom cloud or dirty bomb go off.

  20. Why the hell arent they doing this to desktops? on AMD's New Low-Power CPUs · · Score: 0

    i know the power requirements might be much higher, but still, cant they try to make cooler, low power processors for the desktop? well, at least they're not burning up like the pentiums....

  21. Should lead to better crap from MS on Firefox Breaks 25 Million Downloads · · Score: 0

    actually, competition should be great for the end user, no matter who wins, we all win. but for now, 25 million intelligent people agree, firefox rox.

  22. Well, its come full circle. on Napster Has Been Cracked · · Score: 4, Funny

    napster just keeps finding a way to provide free music. lol. talk about irony.

  23. The book was better on Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy Trailer · · Score: 0

    who wants to bet that a bunch of you are going to say that once the movie comes out?

  24. AWESOME, crap in beta form! on IE7 Announced for Longhorn and WinXP · · Score: 0

    lets see how long it take for someone to find a 'critical flaw' in this. hopefully it'll be more than just a graphical interface-lift.

  25. sweet on Night Vision Scope From Scavenged Parts · · Score: 0

    now i can sit alone in my room on a saturday night in the dark!.
