  1. Re:If you thought goatse.cx was bad.... on New DOOM III Shots · · Score: 1, Offtopic

    Wow.. I really can't argue with the current rating of 1, Insightful right now. It sure was a SIGHT allright!

    Tame the one eyed snake?! If I were you, I'd be more worried about taming that crotch-level monster that looks like it's about to feed on your little snake!

  3. Re:Nothing Matter to Me on New DOOM III Shots · · Score: 2
    I have a firm commitment from the CFO, read wife, that when Doom 3 comes out I get a brand new PC the next day. :-) I'm happy.

    Good, otherwise I'd have to suggest demoting her to receptionist and cleaning crew :)

    Your company hired a midget to dress as Santa too?!

    Hey, those old cardboard pizza boxen have lots of quality cheese still attached to them!

  6. Re:$22k per machine? on Verizon Switches Programmers to Linux · · Score: 1
    LOL! I don't know if this was serious or not, but this is one of the funniest comments I've seen lately!

    In the meantime, I'm sure you'll end up seeing a few more Bentleys in the executive and upper management parking lot!

  7. Re:I just have on Portable MP3 Player w/ Unix Support? · · Score: 2

    I'm sorry, but this just *isn't* funny! Did you seriously post this, thinking that you'd get "5, Funny" with it?!

  8. Go to a real school on Microsoft Invests in the University of Waterloo · · Score: 1, Flamebait
    Times like this make me happy I go to a fun and crazy school that worries more about football and enormous amounts of red tape :)

    But then again, if my ECE dept did this, I guess I'd just suck it up and take the damned class..

    But I'd speak up! That's what students need to do. At a school where students make their voices known, things get done more than in any other institution.

  9. Re:Something I saw posted... on Diamonds - Are They Really Worth the Cost? · · Score: 2

    Kevin Smith should take a look at this guy's writings... he could definitely be a part of some of the dialogue that goes on in those movies (think Clerks)..

  10. Easy answer on Dell To Offer Windows-Less PCs · · Score: 2

    How many can you afford?

  11. Re:As reported on the register. on Godzilla Getting Ready to Stomp Mozilla? · · Score: 2

    Oddly enough, this is what I get when I eat any amount of Trix cereal! I guess it's just for kids...

  12. Re:No Big Deal on AOL Releases Client for Mac OS X with Gecko Browser · · Score: 2

    This is true. Even my tech-oriented friends that have AOL for family reasons still use the built-in browser. They know that IE is there, but they already have AOL open with a nice, blank, white bar up at the top. So why would they bother?

  13. Re:I use and support the following on AOL Releases Client for Mac OS X with Gecko Browser · · Score: 2

    Can't argue with this. The Winamp v3 betas have been extremely disappointing. I'm locked into Windows 2000 right now at work, and I stick with Winamp 2.x

  14. Re:CaJohn's on Ask Alton Brown How Food+Heat=Cooking · · Score: 2

    I would have agreed with you.. until I tried these sauces. They throw in all sorts of extra stuff that zing it back to reality. Chipotle peppers in the salsa - wow!

  15. Re:Red Hat Linux most certainly IS... on Is Linux or Windows Easier To Install? · · Score: 2
    It may be less elegant but it doesn't make setup any more difficult..

    That is, unless, it doesn't return to where it left off before the reboot...

  16. CaJohn's on Ask Alton Brown How Food+Heat=Cooking · · Score: 2
    Do not get hot unless you are a glutton for punishment.

    Give me a break, that stuff's for toddlers. If you guys want some REAL hot sauce, go to CaJohns. It's 10 minutes away from my apartment in Columbus, and these guys are for real. Sauces are extremely hot and tasty, and the employees are cool as hell. I recommend ANY of the "Kaboom!" salsas, and my favorite sauces are Krakatoa (the #1 seller), Liquid Stupid, and Harold's Dangerously Hot. My brother's favorite is actually a parady one, "Sir Fartsalot", which is jalepeno-based. I just didn't like the taste, and it was too weak for me. I'll stick to the red-savina habenero peppered-powered sauces. They win tons of awards, and for good reason.

    Warning - Now THESE sauces are for "glutton for punishment"s... and they have a few hotter ones too. Never have I had so much flavor and spice together. Sometimes one drop is all that's needed for a boom.

    Good hot sauce like CaJohns will make any bland food taste good.

    Carbon fibers, but that will change with nanotubes within 10 years.

  20. Re:Braking power? on NYC Subways Testing Flywheels · · Score: 2
    You're probably right about the weight, but think about situations that are currently using batteries. These guys are saying that you'll get more energy output than batteries, and they are lighter and longer-lasting!

    But since there's no batteries on subways (right?), you're probably right because we're just adding a bunch of metal components.

  21. Opeth - Blackwater Park on Audio Format Listening Tests Concluded · · Score: 2
    I am truly impressed with the selection of music on this test.

    For those of you that don't know, Opeth's Blackwater Park is one of the most earth-shattering CDs I've ever been privy to witness. They are my favorite band. Check out the last song, Blackwater Park. Wow.

    You can get a taste of them in #mp3_metal or #mp3_death in dalnet. type @locator opeth blackwater park and you'll get plenty of results.

    Caution - very harsh grunting vocals. May take some time to get used to, but their musicianship is absolutely brilliant.

  22. Re:Hire me instead on Motivating Your Co-Developers? · · Score: 2

    Well, the good thing is that the music he listens to is so annoying and shrill that nobody will let him listen to his music in the office -- and he'll have one less awful distraction to slow his coding job!

  23. Re:Nvidia's Cg on NVIDIA Cg Compiler Technology to be Open Source · · Score: 2
    It's time to get the telecom and security group over there to block these "time-wasting" sites from the coder's machines!

    First off, these come with a hard drive. Second off, he said $100, not $400. I think his product request is reasonable though
