  1. Re:Problems.... on Dead Space Wants To Scare You · · Score: 1

    You look at recent horror films like The Ring (setting aside that it wasn't a very good movie). That movie was scary as crap

    Why does everybody keep saying this?!

  2. Re:Why is this news... on RIAA Wants Its $222,000 Verdict Back · · Score: 2, Informative

    $222K for the murder, $222K for the necrophilia, $222K for the dismemberment, $222K for the invoice, and $222K for postage and handling.

    So $1,110,000.00

  3. Re:My plan for improving the world's fuel consumpt on Fuel Efficiency and Slow Driving? · · Score: 2, Insightful

    Tachometers show us speed

    Does your car only have one gear?

  4. Re:Well... on Algorithms Can Make You Pretty · · Score: 5, Funny

    I put my picture in and nothing changed.

    Don't worry, it's just that it's still working on it.

  5. Re:Moral of the story? on Qantas Blames Wireless For Aircraft Incidents · · Score: 1

    Really? I always thought that was just a US thing. I've only flown about 4 times in the last couple of years, but I've never had any problem with airport security. You put your bag through the xray machine, walk through the metal detector and off you go. They obviously don't like knives and cigarette lighters and stuff, but that seems reasonable to me.

  6. Re:Hrmm on South Korea's Free Computer Game Business Model Hits the US · · Score: 2, Insightful

    Especially in an FPS. Wouldn't an animated helmet scream 'Shoot here!'

  7. Re:Ultrasonic waves are the new magnets on Ultrasound Machine Ages Wine · · Score: 1

    Besides, everybody knows that ultrasonic waves make things younger, not older.

  8. Re:blah on Nintendo's Wii Storage Solution — SD Cards · · Score: 1

    SDHD

    SDHC

  9. Re:blah on Nintendo's Wii Storage Solution — SD Cards · · Score: 2, Interesting

    Is SDHC really a hardware thing? I've had plenty of devices that have enabled it with a firmware update.

  10. Re:automatic login? on Man Uses Remote Logon To Help Find Laptop Thief · · Score: 2, Insightful

    So the moral of the story is to not have passwords or you won't get your computer back.

  11. Re:What is a pilot's "license?" on Hikers May Have Found Fossett Items · · Score: 1

    In the article, it says certificate, not license.

  12. Re:Withdraw this article before it's too late! on Apple Allows Lotus On iPhone (After Banning Competitor) · · Score: 1

    You can't stop the web.

    Just wait until they release the iPhone 0G.

  13. Re:Overnet and Undernet on Vint Cerf Says It's Every Machine For Itself · · Score: 2, Funny

    I don't really wanna think about cloud computing in this Undernet.

  14. Re:Digg on HD Wii By 2011? · · Score: 1

    So what's MySpace?

  15. Re:Rye Playland on Debunking the Google Earth Censorship Myth · · Score: 1

    Zoom out at the location that is linked to and it is in Holland.

    Zoom in and it is also Holland. Or if you don't zoom! I suspect this strange effect is caused by the top secret installation that is blurred there.

  16. Re:All Aboard! 80% Launch Failure Rate! on On Fourth Launch Attempt, SpaceX Falcon 1 Reaches Orbit · · Score: 5, Funny

    I imagine he'd do pretty badly, since he can't even calculate the failure rate correctly.

  17. Re:Wow.... $170 is cheap? on Getting Away With a Cheap Graphics Card · · Score: 1

    Would you say a $170 car is not a cheap car?

    I'd say it was asking for trouble.

  18. Re:Hey, Jack, Welcome to /. on Jack Thompson Disbarred · · Score: 1

    Doesn't this list make him sound like a pretty typical Slashdotter?

    Well, no it doesn't, but assuming it were, then typical slashdotters should be disbarred if they were doing these things in court.

  19. Re:Death of The Web on Chicago Law Firm Sues Over Hyperlink To Trademarked Name · · Score: 1

    the World Wide Web in all countries which recognize trademarks would come to a screeching halt

    Fortunately, most countries don't use US court decisions as precedents.

  20. Re:I say we give 'em what they want. on Chicago Law Firm Sues Over Hyperlink To Trademarked Name · · Score: 1

    or even look at AKAImBatman (User #238306) with a funny look on your face.

    O_o

  21. Re:Fake images on Russian Town Puts Giant Smiley On Google Maps · · Score: 4, Insightful

    Never mind the fact that they say they timed when the satellite would come over, but it's an aerial photo.

    Also, they did a similar thing on James May's 20th Century, where he made a giant space invader to be captured on a satellite image.

  22. Re:Or more reasonable policies on Students Are Always Half Right In Pittsburgh · · Score: 5, Funny

    Lisa: I _have_ to join the team or I'll get an F that will haunt me for the rest of my life.

    [in the future, Lisa is being sworn in]

    Man: I now pronounce you President of these United --
    Reporter: Stop the inauguration! I just discovered our President Elect got an F in second grade gym class!

    [crows gasps; Lisa is handcuffed]

    Man: In that case I sentence you to a lifetime of horror on Monster Island. [to Lisa] Don't worry, it's just a name.

    [Lisa and others are chased by fire-breathing monsters]

    Lisa: He said it was just a name!
    Man: What he meant is that Monster Island is actually a peninsula.

  23. Re:How is it hard to prevent. on Mythic GM Talks Warhammer Launch, Banning Gold Sellers · · Score: 1

    No its not hard at all. Don't implement trade, and there won't be any gold sellers. Of course, this has other gameplay implications.

  24. Re:Good for occasional use but modem too expensive on T-Mobile Launches £2 Per Day Mobile Broadband · · Score: 1

    It's HSDPA, not HSPDA. Anybody know if this card is HSUPA as well? That would make it an even better deal.

  25. Re:Airbourne FTW! on Full Guitar Hero: World Tour Set List Released · · Score: 1

    Yeah unfortunately not their best song.
    They also have a downloadable track for Rock Band.
