  1. tsk tsk.. on 2007 the Best Year Yet For PSP & DS · · Score: 0

    MMORPG game is not something you can turn on, play for 5 minutes while the kid takes a nap and close up when (s)he cries.

    You're right. But buy one for your kid too, forget about naps and play 24/7. Problem solved.

  2. Not money, but on Scientist Organizes Resistance To Polygraphs · · Score: 0

    Money is perverting science, all over.
    That's positively wrong, good friend. Greed is perverting science.

  3. haven't heard the song? on Macworld Rumor Round-Up · · Score: 0

    I saw this thing on ITV the other week,
    Said, that if she played with her hair, she's probably keen
    She's playin with her hair, well regularly,
    So i reckon i could well be in.

    -- The Streets (A Grand Don't Come For Free)

  4. The technical term on Creating Prion-Free Cows · · Score: 0

    What we usually call 'live feeds'... *ducks*

  5. Las Vegas style, draw three, cumulative score on Videogames Fill Psychological Needs for Players · · Score: 0

    If I ever go to Las Vegas I'll lose all my money in Solitaire.

  6. Keep Web 1.0 Alive! on Is 'Web 2.0' Another Bubble? · · Score: 0

    Facing the latest development, I've started an organization to keep web 1.0 alive.
    What we stand for is simple. Keep your greedy hands off of our internets!
    Please e-mail your details to donations(at)web10alive.org to donate. For the people and the children.

  7. I have a dream.. on Quake in Taiwan Cripples Internet · · Score: 0

    Packets have no color to me

    That has got to be the best computer-age M.L. King quote I've ever heard.

  8. Thanks for my new Ubuntu lap, MS on Microsoft Bribing Bloggers With Laptops · · Score: 0

    First thing the bloggers did upon receiving their gift, was to low-format the harddrive and install Ubuntu Dapper Drake.

  9. Bah! on The Geekiest Animals in History · · Score: 0

    I think there are geekier animals to be found elsewhere on the web, even on a daily basis.
    Try /.!

  10. Re:Almost there... on NASA Sees Glow of Universe's First Objects · · Score: 0

    Should have known that. I get emails about the stretch factor every day.

  11. Re:for cheapskates only on Rotating Solar-Powered Skyscraper · · Score: 0

    This opens up for new and previously unheard of possibilities in terms of peeping.

  12. Don't be so sure of it on New Zealand's First Land Mammal Discovered · · Score: 0

    (...) it couldn't have gone off-shore to get mammals.

    You're presupposing that the bird would have to fly there.
    What if the mammal rode an iceberg?
    Take-away?

  13. Re:Microsoft security man... on Vista's TCP/IP Promises and Perils · · Score: 1, Funny

    Yeah, trust a blind man to invent a new pencil...
    I wouldn't say that in Texas. *ducks*

  14. 'some' in 'some fame' on Unrefined "Musician" Gains a Global Audience · · Score: 0

    Yes. I especially favour the choice of 'some' in "some fame".
    He's not a superstar, he's not famous; he's adequately satisfactory.

  15. Download mp3s from urørt on Unrefined "Musician" Gains a Global Audience · · Score: 0

    You can download his mp3s from NRK Urørt: http://www11.nrk.no/urort/user/?id=36781 (click "Last ned" to download)

  16. All you need is a deity on How To Choose Archival CD/DVD Media · · Score: 0

    I think the archiving method that is best in terms of historical proof and durability is oral memory.
    Take the epic of Gilgamesh, for instance.

    I read a post further up about writing 1s and 0s on stone tablets. That's step one.
    Step two is taking them down from the montain, and three is convincing your cohorts that these tablets were in fact handed to you by a higher power.

    This type of archiving has been found to be the longest lasting in human history; backed up in fresh copies for every new generation learning the recitations. All you need is a deity.

  17. Man (22) lost in 'Related searches' detour on Map of the Internet · · Score: 0

    This is nice for when you get lost. It can be hard finding your way back to the work you were doing, when UserFriendly pops up in related searches.

  18. The difficult part is legislations/conventions on How Microsoft Fights Off 100,000 Attacks A Month · · Score: 0

    The difficult part is finding a way to define 'employees' under 'detainees', that would allow them to do this.

  19. Thumb rule for all sysadmins on Shortage of Electricity Drives Data Center Talks · · Score: 0

    And one that is easy to remember:
    Always print out your backups to make up for black outs.

    This way, even an atomic blast can't take down your business. Just remember to store all the paper in another town.

  20. On my part, on Best Buy Institutes Extreme Flex Time · · Score: 0

    This wouldn't really change anything.
    Slashdot is here whether it's night or day, sunny or rainy.

  21. Re:WOW, more of the same on German Minister Seeks Jail Time For FPS Players · · Score: 0

    Yes.. the guy with the ball.. When I close my eyes, I can still hear his wheezing, evil laughter.. He must be destroyed.

  22. Re:In Soviet Russia on FBI Taps Cell Phone Microphones in Mafia Case · · Score: 0

    This is what happens when you don't put the phone down properly. Or your free hands.

  23. Re:hmm.. on NASA Weighs Moon Plans · · Score: 0

    You might need a rocket scientist to calculate that.
    And to inform him the scales are set to kilograms.

  24. yes, but on Thai IT Minister Slams Open Source · · Score: 0

    What _we_ want to know is: How did you authenticate the thai?
    He might as well have been a pirate for all you knew!

  25. Re:Yes on Are College Students Techno Idiots? · · Score: 0

    Had a client talking about USB 3 and 4.
    I asked him to show me what he was talking about. He pulled up his laptop and pointed to each USB port: "That's USB 1, 2, 3 and 4."
    Apparently that was how he'd read the manual (Hey! I'm on-topic!)
    He wanted me to get USB 3 and 4 certified hardware, since his USB 1 and 2 were beginning to wear out.
