  1. Re:if they do that on Intel Threatens To Revoke AMD's x86 License · · Score: 1

    Isn't it Intel's Pig squinting and sticking out its tongue?

    x86

  2. Re:you are not looking on Microsoft Says IE Faster Than Chrome and Firefox · · Score: 1

    Well that's your answer right there.

    Fresh install.

    I'm sure MS has a buffer-overflow update somewhere that slows ff.

  3. Re:Better Question on How Office Depot Pushes Service Plans On Customers · · Score: 1

    You had me at manly.

  4. Re:Temps asked to if they want to keep their jobs on Volt Asks Temps To 'Vote" For Microsoft Pay Cut · · Score: 1

    RTFA? Are you kidding?

    Who does Volt work for? MS. Does this need to be explained?

    And Vista failed, causing a REAL problem for Microsoft - as in no money for underpaid temps.

    Hiring temps and keeping them on as full time employees but keeping them under an agency is despicable. Too many companies use this method to underpay their workers and keep them under constant threat of layoffs.

    But then you're not defending Volt, you're defending MS which has deep pockets and should be ashamed of having temp workers and asking them to accept that pay cut.

  5. Temps asked to if they want to keep their jobs on Volt Asks Temps To 'Vote" For Microsoft Pay Cut · · Score: 1

    MS hires temps on a low payscale - then asks them to take a 10% hit? Because Vista failed?

  6. Warner Music on YouTube Muting, Removing Videos Involving Warner Music · · Score: 1

    Obviously, Warner Music doesn't want to remain mainstream. They would rather opt for the old dying scheme than continue to move forward in the digital age.

    Remove all the videos you want Warner, I have copies.

  7. Where's Waldo? on IBM Creates MRI With 100M Times the Resolution · · Score: 0, Offtopic

    Maybe now we can find Waldo. He's been missing for about ten years now and is considered MIA.

  8. Oh cool other good torrent sites on Trojan Found At Torrent Sites Insists "Downloading Is Wrong" · · Score: 1

    I've heard of the piratebay before but never Superbay and Mininova. Awesome! I have to tell all my friend.

    Yes, I know.

  9. Mohave was the least popular on Ballmer Sets Loose Windows 7 Public Beta At CES · · Score: 1

    Wait a second, wasn't Mohave the least popular MS Os? Or was it Millenium Edition? --- No more lasers for me, thank you.

  10. Re:Value did get lost :( on Microsoft Zunes Committing Mass Suicide · · Score: 0, Troll

    ...but MSFT employees are still human, right?

    Muhahahahahaha. That's just what they want you to think.

    Actually, if you think about it, it's more likely that they are from an alternate dimension where Microsoft products work flawlessly and as designed.

  11. Re:That's really awesome on Entire Transcript of RIAA's Only Trial Now Online · · Score: 1

    Yeah but you'd get a remainder.

  12. Re:Install Ubuntu on Configuring a Windows PC For a Senior Citizen? · · Score: 1

    Oh and yes my parents use vista, so there is very little change. They will get malware installed.

    Fixed that for you.

  13. conspiracy.. on US Corps Want $1B From Gov't For Battery Factory · · Score: 1

    Perhaps this is a sign that there might be a battery shortage in the near future.

    Ok my tinfoil hat is on...and.. I'm now receiving AM.

  14. Re:good! on The End of Individual Genius? · · Score: 1

    Norton, of course.

  15. Basic on Best Paradigm For a First Programming Course? · · Score: 1

    If you can understand BASIC then you can understand ASM. Well, that was my order and it worked out well for me. BASIC teaches you underlying routing and design. ASM teaches you wtf is going on. Everything else becomes, well, basic.

  16. Styrofoam on Maryland Court Weighs Internet Anonymity · · Score: 1

    Doesn't Dunkin Donuts still use styrofoam? That in and of itself is disgustingly dirty.

    I heard the guy running this store smells funny actually.

  17. Your a bad man. on An Ethical Question Regarding Ebooks · · Score: 1

    Getting something for free like that.

    That's the whole point I think. With the internet and the whole electronic age we are looking at new mediums and saying wow, if I have one copy of something, I can have a million - like ripples in a wave.

    The copyright was supposed to protect the author, not the publisher.

    This essentially is not about the rights of the author - it's about the right to copy something that the publisher doesn't want you to copy AND so the author doesn't republish.

    It's about money.

    Royalties only go so far and when they're done those works should be put into the public domain.

    WIAA is looking for you.

  18. Re:Great news. - Free Genie on Stephen Hawking Going To Canada · · Score: 1

    Done.

    (But you have to figure out how to use it. )

    The least witty thing possible.

  19. On Purpose on In AU, Dodgy Dell Deal Faces Consumer Backlash · · Score: 1

    You would think it was an error, but no, this is a method to create buzz and potentially sell other prducts. So if you ordered the deal with lets say, a gaming keyboard and mouse, each would be a separate order. You can cancel your original but you would still recieve the gaming kb/mouse.

    On Porpoise is a different matter.

  20. Intelligent Destroyer on Science's Alternative To an Intelligent Creator · · Score: 1

    Everyone focuses on the Creator but what about the Destroyer? No one gives him enough credit.

    There was a thought here, somewhere....

  21. Bad Formatting on OpenOffice Vs. Google Apps · · Score: 2, Insightful

    Google Docs sometimes has a nasty habit of badly formatting tables.

  22. Content on Largest Aussie ISP Agrees To "Ridiculous" Net-Filter Trial · · Score: 4, Funny

    If they filter conte

  23. You can have both on Behind the Cogent-Sprint Depeering · · Score: 1

    If you get both sprint and cogent your tubes will never die.

    Actually, I'm not that clever.

  24. All EA games suck on EA Forum Ban Will Now Mean EA Game Ban · · Score: 2, Funny

    All EA games suck.

    Ban me. Oops, wrong forum.

  25. STFU on MTV Bleeps Filesharing Software Names In Weird Al Video · · Score: 1

    Eventually, this is where all roads will lead to. Hear what they want you to hear. --- What's that, I didn't hear you? Shut the fuck up! Come on a little louder Shut the fuck up! Everybody N 2 Gether now Shut the fuck up! What? What?
