  1. What about nipples? on Recovering Blurred Text Using Photoshop and JavaScript · · Score: 5, Insightful

    I think people would be more interested if this removed the blur from nipples.

  2. Re:WTF? on Obama Significantly Revises Technology Positions · · Score: 0, Offtopic

    ...No doubt this is just another republican troll.

    Republican Troll...should I mod this redundant?

  3. Donate to an artist on What Should I Do With My Tech Junk? · · Score: 1
    Donate your used equipment to a local artist. I have a friend who takes apart old equipment and makes artwork out of them. Here's an example of old parts and useless CDs turned into artwork that now hangs in my basement.

    Deviant Art

  4. Re:Security Risk? on Apple Can Remotely Disable iPhone Apps · · Score: 2, Funny

    10 points to the first person to brick some iphones with this!

    These points you speak of... are they redeemable for cash?

    They are good for one free app from the app store.

  5. Bad Driver Advertising on Road Rage Linked To Automobile Bumper Stickers · · Score: 0, Troll

    I, for one, love the fact that a lot of the really bad drivers identify themselves with one particular bumper sticker - Bush/Cheney. To me, that's advertising "stay away from me, i'm a crappy driver."

  6. Re:I knew it! on The Reality Distortion Field Is Real · · Score: 5, Funny

    That wasn't very creative. You must have just viewed the IBM logo.

  7. I knew it! on The Reality Distortion Field Is Real · · Score: 5, Funny

    I see my apple logo on my laptop all the time. People always tell me I'm full of shit, but I always explain that I'm full of great ideas. Now I have proof that I'm the one that's right, and they're full of shit.

  8. Does this count?? on What's Your Favorite Monster? · · Score: 1

    My favorite monster with some basis in reality is the Bush Administration.

  9. Re:how dare that motherfucker give it away! on Reznor Follows Radiohead, Offers Free Album · · Score: 2, Interesting

    This is our industry, our money, and you are nothing, nothing!!!

    Isn't (wasn't) his record lable Nothing Records...he was a nothing all along.

  10. Re:So he taunted... why difference does it make? on Physicist Calculates Trajectory of Tiger At SF Zoo · · Score: 1

    Here you go: http://www.msnbc.msn.com/id/22719922/ "One of the three victims of San Francisco Zoo tiger attack was intoxicated and admitted to yelling and waving at the animal while standing atop the railing of the big cat enclosure, police said in court documents filed Thursday." So even if the man who was killed wasn't taunting, one of the men he was with was. So maybe his family should be liable for the death.

  11. Re:So he taunted... why difference does it make? on Physicist Calculates Trajectory of Tiger At SF Zoo · · Score: 1

    The zoo definitely needs to be held accountable for the loss of human life. However, since the man was found to be taunting the animal, and the police ended up shooting it, his family should be responsible for the loss of the animal's life. Tigers are becoming increasingly rare. I can't say the same about jackasses.

  12. Re:Oh, spare me. on EPA Asserts Executive Privilege In CA Emissions Case · · Score: 1

    I'm looking most forward to January 20th, 2009, or the day Tecumseh's curse comes true. Whichever is sooner.

  13. Does this really help? on Wal-Mart Pushing Suppliers For RFID · · Score: 1, Interesting

    Does this really help with controlling inventory? The RFID is not on the product, but on the pallet. So, they're going to be able to track how many wooden pallets they have, but not the product that is sitting on top. Until it's implemented in the product, I don't see how this will help them.

  14. First Cloned Animal? on US FDA Deems Cloned Animals Edible · · Score: 1

    Was Dolly really the first cloned animal, or was she the first cloned mammal? It seems odd that out of everything that you could possibly clone for the first time, that somebody'd choose a sheep.

  15. Re:Airport security on Student Expelled For Facebook Photo Description · · Score: 2, Interesting

    Maybe I'm missing something, but the "Shoot it, upload it, get famous" piece sounds more like an advertisement on the page. Why would they punish somebody for that?

  16. Re:SLA? on Microsoft Giving Xbox Live Users a Free Game · · Score: 1

    Is Texas one of the states that the limitations do not apply in the EULA? If so, then the lawsuit is valid. If not, then they have no leg to stand on.

  17. Money from both camps. on Warner Backs Blu-Ray. End Times For HD-DVD? · · Score: 4, Insightful

    Microsoft shouldn't care too much if blu-ray succeeds. The VC-1 codec that most blu-ray movies uses needs to be licensed from Microsoft. Money in their pocket either way.

  18. Re:Good Use of Power on Child's Play Breaks a Million Bucks · · Score: 1

    This is one of the few charities that I believe in supporting. This year, instead of giving gifts to my brothers and sisters, I made a donation to Child's Play. Next year, I think they can do even better.

  19. Intelligent Design on Humans Evolving 100 Times Faster Than Ever · · Score: -1, Flamebait

    I think the author meant to say that Jesus has been performing more miracles in the last 2000 years (the earth isn't even 10,000 years old yet). He has helped us prevent diseases and adapt to city life.

  20. Re:Depends On Who's Watching With You on Study Finds Film Enjoyment Is Contagious · · Score: 1

    The studios just need to record people watching their movies for commentary tracks. It'd save them tons of money.

  21. Depends On Who's Watching With You on Study Finds Film Enjoyment Is Contagious · · Score: 2, Interesting

    I'm one of those people who would pay extra to have an empty theatre to myself to see a movie. The last thing I want is to hear constant chatter, or see people texting on their cell phones while watching a movie. It totally takes you out of the experience.

  22. Bought the Download, will buy the CD on 38% of Downloaders Paid For Radiohead Album · · Score: 1

    I paid 3.95 for the album and loved it. Unfortunately, the songs are only 160 kbps mp3, so I'll buy the CD when it comes out as well. Besides, there are a few of us who actually like album art/lyric booklets and having the physical item.

  23. TMNT on Mythbusters to Test Cockroach Radiation Myth · · Score: 1, Funny

    They should bring turtles. I'd like to see some mutant ninja turtles.

  24. Re:A week? on Ohio Official Docked Vacation Time For Stolen Tape · · Score: 1

    All depends on your employer. I get 20 days vacation, 6 sick days, 2 personal days, 10 paid holidays, and usually a couple floating holidays each year. Some aren't so lucky, and get the typical 10 days total though.

  25. Also... on Ohio Official Docked Vacation Time For Stolen Tape · · Score: 1

    They are going to put him on paid administrative leave for 30 days. :)
