  1. Reversing the polarity on Magnetic Wobbles Cause Hard Drive Failure · · Score: 2, Funny

    I though reversing the polarity solved problems, not caused them. Guess it only works on isolinear storage...

  2. Re:Strange Definition of Alternative Fuels on The British Steam Car Challenge · · Score: 1

    I don't think the point was the age of the fuel, but the fact that it's Liquid *Petroleum* Gas i.e. a fossil fuel, which isn't very "alternative".

  3. As a K750i owner on Sony Ericsson Shows Off Feature-Heavy Cell Phones · · Score: 1

    I noticed the following things:

    - No cover on the camera lens. Looking at how beat up the cover is on my K750i, it's needed.
    - Where's the joystick, is it supposed to be that thing around the 2 and 5 keys?...
    - Where did they steal those pickup and hangup keys from? They sure don't look like they belong to this phone.

  4. I agree on Vista Speech Recognition Goes Awry · · Score: 1

    Let's set so double the killer! I guess all that left to do is point and go "Haa Haa!"

  5. What's next? on World Firefox Day · · Score: 1

    Hanging out at the airport in orange robes handing out pamphlets?

  6. Mmm... on Millions of King Crabs Turn Sea to Desert · · Score: 1

    A sea full of crab dessert... *drool*

  7. Re:The only option on Source Code Browsing Tools? · · Score: 3, Funny

    Bah! Real programmers program with the switches on the front panel! Damn whippersnappers... And get of my lawn!

  8. History repeating itself? on Nintendo Revolution Renamed 'Wii' · · Score: 1

    I remember there was once a company that made consoles called Sega. They had a cool sounding console coming out called the Katana. Then they decided to gay it up a notch and call it the Dreamcast. Now Sega doesn't make consoles any more. Back then I was actually pretty sure my next console would be a Katana. But then they changed the name, and I bought a Playstation instead.

  9. There's a joke in there somewhere... on Slowly Pulling Facts from Black Holes · · Score: 1

    I didn't think people pulling facts out of (their) "black holes" was anything new :)

  10. Re:iPod as a Geiger Counter Would Be Way Cooler on Retrofitting an iPod into a Geiger Counter · · Score: 1

    My thoughts exactly. In fact that's what I thought the headline said at first, I was a little dissapointed when it turned out to be the other way around.
