  1. Re:Doesn't work for me in Dapper on Google Releases Picasa for Linux · · Score: 1

    Also works fine on my box. Linux Deus 2.6.15-23-k7 #1 SMP PREEMPT Tue May 23 14:20:54 UTC 2006 i686 GNU/Linux

  2. Re:The Terms on What Should One Know to be Truly Computer Literate? · · Score: 1

    Err, without context. Oops.

  3. Re:The Terms on What Should One Know to be Truly Computer Literate? · · Score: 1

    In general, if people talk about 'computers', without content they mean PCs. And I'd hope your washing machine doesn't run any Microsoft products.

  4. What? on RIAA Sues XM Satellite Radio · · Score: 5, Funny

    I can store songs in my memory and play them back at will fairly accurately. Am I at risk of being sued by the RIAA?

  5. Re:Is motion sensing controllers a good thing? on Controller Comparison - PlayStation 3 vs. Wii · · Score: 4, Funny

    It's going to look kinda suspicious on a gamer if their right arm is much more buff than their left.

    At least now they'll have an excuse that doesn't scare (normal) people.

  6. Re:Nearly unreadable (the fonts, not the content) on Slashdot CSS Redesign Contest Update · · Score: 1

    Don't forget the rounded corners and gradients!

  7. MOD PARENT UP! on The NSA Knows Who You've Called · · Score: 1

    There was no reason to change the title; the previous one was more informative, and a lot less flamebaitish.

  8. Re:What's the point? on Day of the Robotic Tentacle · · Score: 1

    Okay, seriously: what is the point in this? I mean, it's cool and all, and it probably demonstrates some serious technology, but where would it honestly be used?

    Live action tentacle porn.

  9. Re:Wow, what a great comparison of 70s-80s vs now on Gadgets, Then & Now · · Score: 2, Insightful

    Too bad we can't generate power from bad jokes. If we could, slashdot could power the entire world!

  10. Re:Please no more computer news on 10 Years of Neon Genesis Evangelion · · Score: 1

    Never; there's no adults on slashdot.

  11. Re:Does this article have any useful info? on Multi-threaded Programming Makes You Crazy? · · Score: 2, Funny

    Useful information? On slashdot? You must be new here.

  12. Re:Red tab? on Married In Oblivion · · Score: 0, Offtopic

    I'm pretty sure the red background is for stories from teh future!1! , but for some reason they seem to occasionally still appear red right after they become available to non-subscribers.

  13. Re:My question is... on Open-Source or FIPS-Validated Disk Encryption? · · Score: 1

    Maybe they don't use macs?

  14. Dupe? on CUTE USB SUSHI DISK DRIVES!!! · · Score: 3, Interesting

    Does it count if the first one got deleted?

  15. Well... on CUTEST WEB SITE EVER DISCOVERED!!! · · Score: 1

    I guess this finally explains this .

  16. Hmm... on The Surprising Truth About Ugly Websites · · Score: 1

    Their website must be *very* extremely successful, then.

  17. Re:why why why why on Windows XP on Intel Mac Confirmed · · Score: 1

    Maybe because of the $14k prize?

  18. Re:Not bad at all. on Linspire CEO Considers CNR for Ubuntu · · Score: 1

    Only if you don't have any hands. And in that case, a pretty GUI wouldn't be much help.

  19. Re:Poor saps on Americans Using Internet 'Just for Fun' · · Score: 1

    What, did a web server kill your parents when you were a kid?

  20. Baldur's Gate 2 on What Game Do You Love? · · Score: 1

    A great story, varied and challenging gameplay, and enough side quests to keep you busy for a very long time. After getting my hands on a copy of it, I didn't do much else, except for the occasional break for eating (which the loading screen helpfully reminds you to do).

  21. Re:./ to music on Network-Monitoring Data Put to Music · · Score: 1

    These are all very interesting ideas, but I think the real question is whether you'd even be able to hear it over the sound of the server exploding.

  22. I like it. on Slashdot Index Code Update · · Score: 0, Troll

    It has a few flaws (slightly larger text size would be nice) but overall it's much better than sorting through each section trying to find new stories.

  23. Re:Lynx compatible? on Slashdot Index Code Update · · Score: 3, Informative
  24. Re:Sweet! on IE7 Leaked · · Score: 5, Funny

    Yes, but this latest version finally adds the many security holes and rendering bugs that users have come to expect from their browsing experience.

  25. Re:To whoever modded me down... on A Look at Google DRM · · Score: 1

    Not sure how it compares to Windows-based ones, but here's one.
