  1. Too few, too many, too few, ...... on Critical Shortage of IT Workers in Coming Years · · Score: 1

    Make up your minds! First we don't have enough CI students, then we have a glut of computer techs, now we won't have enough again. Is anybody else feeling dizzy?

  2. Who pays for these studies? on Software Piracy Will Get Worse · · Score: 1

    It's like saying it's going to rain in Seattle sometime in the next month or it's hot in Florida during July. Duh. Of course piracy is going to increase, did anyone actually think it would go down?

  3. Buy China on Effects of China's Software Policy on World Economy? · · Score: 2, Funny

    Bill Gates will just buy China and turn it into his summer home.

  4. Re:Pop (or Soda if you prefer) on The Worst Foods to Eat Over a Keyboard · · Score: 1

    I hate it when you ask for a Coke and they ask "What kind?" A Coke damn it! There's only one kind, if I wanted a f'n Sprite the I'd ask for a f'n Sprite!

  5. It's blind right? on Tracking Domestic Animals? · · Score: 1

    How the hell is it going to see an elk?

  6. Warm Caramel on The Worst Foods to Eat Over a Keyboard · · Score: 1

    Sure it's tasty, but damn is it ever hard to get out of keyborad! Once it hardens you're totally screwed!

  7. Pigeons on Dissidents Seeking Anonymous Web Solutions? · · Score: 1

    Tie little notes to pigeons and send them on their way! Ah, damn, it shit on the note again!

  8. Hmmmmm.... on Dissidents Seeking Anonymous Web Solutions? · · Score: 1

    Are you in Detroit? Just curious

  9. 100 mil is 100 mil! on Dell Founder Dropped $100M Onto Red Hat · · Score: 2, Insightful

    No matter how rich Michael Dell is $100 million is no small change. It's pretty obvious that he's as fed up with the MS BS as the rest of the world. He's looking to the future and it's not with MS. Good for him and good luck.

  10. Looks like a fun game but.... on City of Heroes Issue Four Released · · Score: 1

    I really don't care for MMORPG's. I wish they would have come out with this extremely cool concept of a game in a self-contained version. I have had the experience of sports games played online with other gamers and it just sucks. Constantly running into people who cheat gets old. I prefer the old fashioned Me vs CPU games with the option of online game play, not the requirement of it.

  11. But will it slice butter? on How Lightsabers Work · · Score: 1

    The subject line says it all.

  12. Get a Bat! on Handling Viruses in an Uncontrolled Network? · · Score: 1

    And then everybody take turns beating the snot out of these repeat offenders and their computers. I also like the idea of outing them to the rest of the community and let the chips fall where they may.

  13. Re:These guys do not change! on Tracking Sex Offenders via GPS for Life · · Score: 1

    There's nothing lower in the prison population than a child molester. These guys are raped, beaten, etc, etc. They need to be taken out of the general population if they are to ever get treated.

  14. These guys do not change! on Tracking Sex Offenders via GPS for Life · · Score: 1

    After working at inpatient facilities for several years I've seen hundreds of child sex offenders. 95% of these people do not change! They have urges like you wouldn't believe. They may not actually touch a child but they get off on just being around them. They are disturbed and have some serious issues which should be addressed in therapy while they are incarcerated. I like the idea of tracking them forever, but I'm pretty sure it's totally unconstitutional. If we're going to tag one group we might as well tag 'em all. Let's just tag the kids while we're at it so we know where they are as well. Let's just keep them off the streets, then we don't have to worry about where they are. We already know!

  15. Sorry on Microsoft Taps Bloggers to Promote Longhorn · · Score: 1

    I thought it said Foghorn Leghorn. I was hungry.

  16. Just rode the AmTrak this past weekend.... on High-Speed Trains in the US? · · Score: 1

    and loved it. It is perfect for short to medium distance travel (300-700 miles) and goes places planes don't. My parents live in southeastern Iowa and I'm in Chicago. It's a 7-8 hour drive (Chicago traffic) and the closest airport is about 2 hours away and quite expensive because it's a small market (Des Moines). The AmTrak dropped me off about 45 minutes from their house in less than 5 hours. I didn't have the hassle of driving, gas, wear and tear on my car, stress, etc. They serve real food, you can drink, the lounge played current DVD's (The Incredibles), and there's tons of leg room. I think they really need to advertise more in order to get more passengers. Without the passengers there's no money to upgrade the trains and tracks. The current track system isn't designed to handle high speed trains and we'd end up with wrecks every month which would put them even further in debt. Anyhow, I'm all for the AmTrak although it does need an update.

  17. Cool on Playboy on Playstation Portable · · Score: 1

    Porn to go. That ought to be real popular on the commute to work. Or better yet, on the school bus.

  18. Well if the French did it.... on French Courts Ban DRM on DVDs · · Score: 1

    then we must follow suit. After all they are world leaders in everything civilized. Viva le France!
