  1. In Soviet America, technology drives YOU on E-Paper On Cereal Boxes · · Score: 1

    Progress is not for your benefit, so STFU and watch the mandatory trailers on your DVD.

  2. Re:I don't understand the US/China relationship on Cyber Attacks on US Linked to Chinese Military? · · Score: 1

    I blame the people who cut the paychecks. If they were a little fatter, maybe we wouldn't need to shop at Walmart.

    Bush, and whatever figurehead apparatchik China has this week, are on the same page. It's been obvious for years that the powers that be in the US lust after the Chinese political system, and that the US and China are converging. Despite this, I guess Oceania, Eurasia and Eastasia are bound to be at odds despite their similarities.

  3. Wotta lotta hooey on D&D Online Stress Beta Begins · · Score: 0, Offtopic

    Grammer notsies our awl ouvre are nutzax liek teh buncha loosers theyre is.

  4. Re:Volumes of Data on EU Approves Data Retention · · Score: 1

    You gotta love a government that makes you pay for the privilege of incriminating yourself. By love, I mean hate.

  5. Buck Fush on Diebold CEO Resigns Under Cloud · · Score: 0, Flamebait

    You can't be sane and not realize that Bush is a fuckwit with an evil agenda. The "fair and balanced" media makes him appear credible by NOT pointing this out, making it implicitly pro-Bush. The question is whether you are part of that evil agenda, or just plain ignant, in which case you need to go back to collecting NASCAR memorabilia and leave the voting to others.

  6. Re:Price on Alexa Web Search Platform Released · · Score: 1

    Are you then actually paying Alexa to do their web crawling for them?

  7. Re:This leads directly to fraud (hear me out) on Telcos Propose 2-Tier Internet · · Score: 5, Funny

    It's only fraud if Congress hasn't been paid enough.

  8. Cease and desist, citizen on Macro Lens from a Pringles Can · · Score: 4, Funny

    The RIAA has not granted you a license to use your CD in this manner. Why do you hate America??

  9. Veggie Tales? on Behind the Scenes of Narnia's Special Effects · · Score: 1

    I never understood them--does being religious mean you're a vegetable? Well, maybe I do understand them after all.

  10. LAMPS + RoR + AJAX = WTF?? on Mastering Ajax Websites · · Score: 3, Funny

    I'm bored with these paradigms. Can we invent some new ones already? I propose Flash + Ads + Porn + Paypal = FAPP.

    It's not just a fad!

  11. Real Dr Pepper in Dublin, TX on Coca-Cola's Coffee Soda · · Score: 1

    If you're in Dublin, TX, they make Dr Pepper with sugar there. I can't believe people can drink those corn syrup drinks, they are nasty. So nasty, that I drink diet, or just add sugar to my tea (being in the South and all, iced tea is de rigeur).

    I consider the great high fructose corn syrup debacle proof that capitalism is broken--or maybe just that American consumers are merely a bunch of indiscriminate yahoos. The latter argument is too easily proven (NASCAR and American "pilsner" beers, case closed).

  12. Damn kids on Throwable WiFi Camera · · Score: 1

    Splinter Cell? You console whore. Thief 2 did this first--a tossable surveillance eyeball. Yes, a mechanical eyeball, not a "dart". Thief is a "computer" game, not a console game, in case you wonder what else you can do with your PC besides post to Slashdot and download porn.

  13. Re:Question on Software Industry Shifting Piracy Strategy · · Score: 2, Funny

    Works for the USA! Since we sent billions to Iraq, gas prices have gone up and American oil companies have made out like bandits. Talk about a tax windfall for social services!

    Now, if a country like Chad or Bhutan started pumping money into the USA, the resulting inflation could potentially make every man on the street a millionaire in the local currency. It would also make it easier for Americans to buy the fine products of Chad and Bhutan (copra? dirt?) which would boost the fortunes of copra/dirt magnates, who would then be able to patch the roof on the shack they keep their field laborers in, possibly doubling the standard of living for these often neglected folk.

  14. Re:Do all Operating systems work the same way? on Intel to Develop Hardware Rootkit Detection · · Score: 4, Funny

    Who needs a software rootkit when Intel will provide a hardware one?

  15. Database? on USPTO Unable to Find Top Ten Patent Holders · · Score: 0

    I thought the patent office kept their records with crayon.

  16. Losses overreported by the pigopolists, perhaps? on EFF Has Outlived Its Usefulness? · · Score: 4, Insightful

    Remember who controls the media and manufactures consent thereby. This is the same media that managed to make Kerry the decorated war vet look like a pansy compared to a guy who skipped out on his skipping out of Vietnam.

  17. Marquette sucks on Marquette Dental Student Suspended For Blogging · · Score: 1

    ...and the student reaped the consequences of attending a sucky school. Perhaps this suckiness was not evident at first, but caveat emptor. Now I know that I will never attend Marquette, and when their recruiters come riding their bikes to my door, I'll beat them down like Mormons. Uh, I mean, politely show them off my property.

  18. But who... on Sensitive Data Stolen Via Digital Cameras · · Score: 1

    will escort the escorters? It's the blind leading the blind! Not much different from the present state of affairs, I suppose.

  19. Sounds like Windows development on Google Fixes IE Bug · · Score: 2, Interesting

    When a web browser and media player are "integral parts" of your O/S, you've got encapsulation problems.

  20. Behold the future on Web Based Rhapsody Targets Linux · · Score: 1

  21. Re:Surprised? on Free Wi-fi Prompts BellSouth to Withdraw Donation · · Score: 1

    Well, you'd think that the first 4 years of Dubya would have been bad PR for his second term...personally, I blame NASCAR.

  22. That depends on Barcode Scam Redux - Target's $4.99 iPod · · Score: 1, Insightful

    If mom is Barbara Bush, you can fuck up everything you've ever done in life and never have to deal with the "real world", because Daddy can just buy you a new corporate, state, or federal job. In the words of Ambrose Bierce, "Wealth n. Impunity."

  23. Re:Aryan Invasion? on India's Road To The Future · · Score: 1

    Yes, Hitler never even got close to India; he was stopped in North Africa. Those movies of German troops goose-stepping in front of the Taj Mahal were proven fake years ago.

  24. Re:Stifling innovation on Time Warner To Be Split Into Four Parts? · · Score: 1

    Go further. Ban corporations (as a protected entity, at least). Corporations are a means of absolving the rich of the consequences of their actions.

    Note that while YOUR ability to declare bankrupcy has been gutted by the elite (in the US), the corporations are doing it as a matter of course to shed their obligations. What SHOULD happen is management should burn in a corporate bankrupcy (all prior remuneration should be liable for seizure, at a minimum). What really happens, is a company declares bankrupcy, screws their employees and suppliers, becomes solvent by borrowing from the government (in essence), and then management gives itself a raise. The airlines are doing it (thanks to government money after 9/11), GM and Ford are going to do it.

  25. Re:the purpose of puzzles on A Solution for the Ten Letter Acrostic Puzzle? · · Score: 1

    One of the classic "beginner" programs is tic-tac-toe. You don't get to write chess programs until the second semester.
