  1. Re:How long before... on Building Brainlike Computers · · Score: 1

    I don't think spammers want thinking, feeling, talking bots either.

    Oh, wait, I think I see what you mean now.

  2. Re:You've got to admit though on Sri Lankan Terrorists Hack Satellite · · Score: 1

    No, you're spoiled. Back in my day we had to hijack the messengers by hiding in the bushes and hijacking the messenger. It was uphill both ways, especially since you couldn't keep the hijackee still.

  3. Re:IMAX on 1080p, Human Vision, and Reality · · Score: 1

    Yeah, but when you die "outdoors", you die in real life... that's got to be a con.

  4. Re:Hey, that's unfair on 1080p, Human Vision, and Reality · · Score: 1

    It's part of /.'s new user exchange program. Didn't you get the memo?

  5. Re:How this will go: on Bloggers Propose Code of Conduct · · Score: 1

    Hey, don't forget userbars.

  6. I can see where this is going... on NBC, News Corp Join to Create YouTube Clone · · Score: 1

    A few months to one year from now, on /.:

    NBC Gives Up On YouTube Clone

  7. Re:live cd? on Internet Curfew for College Students? · · Score: 3, Funny

    What does one do during "late night browsing" that doesn't involve "touching the hard drive"? Eh?

  8. Kind of... on Is Computer Science Dead? · · Score: 1

    Computer Science is dying, Netcraft confirms it.

  9. All I use... on 20 Must-have Firefox Extensions · · Score: 1

    ... is the Web Developer Toolbar (useful for hiding images, making some sites slightly more SFW), Adblock Plus, Tab Mix Plus and the del.icio.us plugin. Other extensions I also use, but could do without, are Forecastfox and Download Statusbar.

  10. Re:Loading time in the accuracy test? on The Beer Tossing Fridge · · Score: 1

    It's not continuous... presumably they deleted the loading parts.

  11. Re:OMG - It MUST be global warming.. on New Sub Dives To Crushing Depths · · Score: 1

    In other news, global warming is found to be the cause of 99.8% of all cases of thermal processor failure.

  12. Re:Based on A*? on New Software Stops Mars Rover Confusion · · Score: 1

    They were busy figuring out how to wallhack so they could apply the same approach to the rover issue.

  13. Re:oblig. on US Not Getting Money's Worth From ISS · · Score: 2, Funny

    Cheney? Nah... I know you can't blow up an airplane with a single shot from a handgun, but I wouldn't try to see if the same thing happens with the ISS and a shotgun.

  14. Re:Two dimensions only ??? on Measure Anything with a Camera and Software · · Score: 1

    Just ask CSI if you can borrow theirs.

  15. Re:A replacement for "folder" on Labels Not Tags, Says Google · · Score: 1

    I don't know... for instance, it makes sense for the files for a game to be all in the same directory, and they don't strike me as particularly needing categorization. It might be good for media like photos, music, videos, etc., but for documents and so on directories seem to make more sense.

  16. Well... on Germany's RIAA Sues Rapidshare - YouTube Next? · · Score: 2, Interesting

    This makes me wonder whether services like these are a good idea. Aren't they somewhat liable to stuff like this? I've seen them remove illegal content, but sometimes it's on their servers for a long while...

  17. Re:some perl on Surgical Microbot Developed · · Score: 1

    use Asshole::Complain::Perl;
    use Meme::FTW::Perl;

  18. Re:the obligatory... on IsoHunt Shut Down? · · Score: 1

    Cool! Can it be hacked so I can shoot whoever I want with it?

  19. Re:Guns are the assembly code of politics. on Sealand Put Up For Sale · · Score: 1

    If I recall correctly, they did open fire on a British vessel at least once. I think it was quite controversial at the time.

  20. Re:Web 2.0 on 'Web 2.0' Most Popular Wikipedia Entry · · Score: 1

    It's no longer "crap", it's eColi. Get with the times.

  21. Re:Unit of measure on Seagate Plans 37.5TB HDD Within Matter of Years · · Score: 2, Informative

    37.5TB = 300Tb. TB is a "rounder" unit and as such is more suitable to a headline, although it's still a bit confusing.

  22. Re:Excellent on End of the Blu-Ray / HD-DVD Format War? · · Score: 2

    There's a +- key on the keyboard???

    Well, there is, more or less...

  23. Re:Fake moon landing site on NASA Needs Fake Moon Dust · · Score: 1

    It was a sound stage on Mars.

  24. Re:Vaporware on Wired News 2006 Vaporware Awards · · Score: 1

    I for one welcome our Beowulf cluster of tired old jokes overlords.

  25. Re:quake cripples internet on Quake in Taiwan Cripples Internet · · Score: 1

    No, no you weren't.
