  1. Yahoo on Microsoft Raises $3.8B in Bond Sale · · Score: 5, Insightful

    Obvious first idea.

  2. Re:First Post on Apple Refusing Any BitTorrent Related Apps? · · Score: 4, Insightful

    I'm I the only nerd who actually use it for mostly downloading ubuntu and feroda and for WoW patches? Who has time for movies anyway?

  3. Re:Screw your alternative timeline! on Is a $72.5m Opening Weekend Enough For Star Trek? · · Score: 1

    You're not the only one to think that. The story of the movie was flimsy.

  4. Re:Worst Case on Is a $72.5m Opening Weekend Enough For Star Trek? · · Score: 4, Funny

    Well, Microsoft still has users

  5. Worst Case on Is a $72.5m Opening Weekend Enough For Star Trek? · · Score: 4, Funny

    Just use a black hole to redo it until it's successful. Unless it was successful the first time and didn't need a full reboot. Seriously, why did we need to erase everything that happened again? At least the kirk from the other movies always fixes the timeline.

  6. Re:Oh Noez on College Threatens Students Over Email Addresses · · Score: 1

    I'll laugh when yahoo and google laugh at them for even asking for this information.

  7. Re:Greed is Good on College Threatens Students Over Email Addresses · · Score: 1

    And they have a policy to do this. They keep the coffee at extreme temperatures on those burners for some reason. I can't drink a McDs coffee unless I let it cool 5 minutes. I can drink a Starbucks coffee when they serve it to me.

  8. ha on Microsoft Releases Super-Secure XP to US Air Force · · Score: 0, Troll

    yeah, so this prove that Microsoft makes no money fixing their product. They stop when it's good enough to sell I guess.

  9. what's the margin of error? on Linux Reaches 1% Usage Share · · Score: 1

    Could be an anomaly. I still think I'm the only one cool enough to use it.

  10. Re:Die Hard 4 on What Kind of Data Center Can You Build With $500M? · · Score: 1

    yeah, but I couldn't find the waiting room with the coffee machine.

  11. Re:Erm.....What the hell? on Microsoft To Disable Autorun · · Score: 5, Funny

    Humans are HORRIBLE at deciding what is safe to run at what isn't. That's the central security problem, and it probably won't be solved until we have intelligence.

    there fixed that for you

  12. Re:Merit on US ISPs Using Push Polling To Stop Cheap Internet · · Score: 1

    It's a city government, you usually can drive up to the mayors office and throw eggs at it if you want. It would be a different story if it was a far removed government. In the end AT&T has your traffic anyway. The NSA doesn't need local taps.

  14. Re:1984 on UK Government To Monitor All Internet Use · · Score: 2, Interesting

    Because what we call Conservatives is in reality an massive amount of people with differing views about things. Some are libertarians some are facist ... the conservative parties try to cater to all of them which creates these crazy policies and contradictions.

  15. Re:Some people don't care on RMS Says "Software As a Service" Is Non-free · · Score: 1

    That's not what he's crying about. What happens when you business depends on an online service that goes under? That's the type of concern he's describing. While it make monetary sense to use it, it has drawbacks that can have severe effects on your bottom line.

  16. Re:Umm. Yeah. We know this. on RMS Says "Software As a Service" Is Non-free · · Score: 2, Insightful

    Or somewhere you do control. How many laptops are stolen every year? How many computer have keyloggers? ... No safe place.

  17. Re:RIP on Yahoo Pulls the Plug On GeoCities · · Score: 1

    Can't slashdot get a spam filter

  18. Re:Convert? on Time Warner Cable Won't Compete, Seeks Legislation · · Score: 1

    Doesn't have to be done like that, they could issue municipal bounds to pay for the project and pay those bonds back with money received from the subscription revenues.

  19. Re:Article Is Bunkum on Intel Cache Poisoning Is Dangerously Easy On Linux · · Score: 1

    root is god thus root can do it

  20. Re:Why Pay for a Degree on BYU Prof. Says University Classrooms Will Be "Irrelevant" By 2020 · · Score: 1

    Because they offer certify that you did learn the stuff. This is why Microsoft, Cisco... make tons of certs.

  21. Re:Ummmm on Ballmer, IBM Surprised By Oracle-Sun Deal · · Score: 1

    Yeah but, do you hear about it now that it's done? Nope, they ate that company like it was cheese cake.

  22. Re:Is this good? on Ballmer, IBM Surprised By Oracle-Sun Deal · · Score: 1

    I meant can't really decide

  23. Is this good? on Ballmer, IBM Surprised By Oracle-Sun Deal · · Score: 5, Funny

    I can really decide if I like the fact that Oracle is going to be bullying Microsoft going forward or hate the fact that Oracle is probably more evil than Microsoft now.

  24. Bittorrent over 3G on BT Blocks Access To Pirate Bay · · Score: 4, Interesting

    Anybody actually do this? How many people really would do this at this time?

  25. Is this even remotely suprising? on Rep. Jane Harman Focus In Yet Another Warrantless Wiretap Scandal · · Score: 2, Insightful

    I mean, they lost a few years of emails. Getting rid of some inconvenient wiretap can't be far harder.
