  1. *Phew* on China's Earliest Modern Human Found · · Score: 1

    I almost panicked when I read the title as "China's Earliest Modern Human Food", by accident.

    Bad eyes and hi-res monitors don't mix.

  2. Re:pong on The Ten Most Important Games · · Score: 1

    What, no Transport Tycoon?

  3. Re:Oh Canada! on Canada Rejects Anti-Terror Laws · · Score: 1

    Eh!-men brother!

  4. Re:why not? on Can Apple Penetrate the Corporation? · · Score: 1

    Why not? They're already penetrating consumers. ...up the arse with their high prices.
  5. Re:Turn SuperFetch off on 4 GB May Be Vista's RAM Sweet Spot · · Score: 5, Funny
    Translated for teh interwebs:

    Vista: O rly?


    You: Ya rly!

  6. Re:Flying cars! on 12 Crackpot Ideas That Could Transform Tech · · Score: 1

    It's not as easy as it sounds. You need new traffic laws/regulations, special lanes or roads, runways, etc. Think about it: Who's to prevent your average 'driver' from accidentally flying over secret military airbases?

  7. Re:More likely on Fermi Paradox Predicting Humankind's Future? · · Score: 1

    I think civ's do okay, never get off the planet the started on, and eventually die out from lack of resources, some kind of self destruction, or being wiped out by an external event. And you would know this how?
  8. Re:goddammit on The Future of Packaging Software in Linux · · Score: 1

    Werd. Automatic dependency resolution for the win!

  9. Re:OpenBSD Firewalls on How Microsoft Fights Off 100,000 Attacks A Month · · Score: 1

    Did Hotmail used to run on BSD?

  10. What are the advantages? on The Next X Prize · · Score: 1

    So, asides from the coolness factor, what are the real advantages of decoding your genes?

  11. Re:Socket consideration on Intel Core 2 Duo Vs. AMD AM2 · · Score: 1
    It's time that processor manufactures realize the time to change sockets each year is over. Either they are able to foresee the socket interface for the next 5 years or they have to provide processors for any socket within that time line.
    Well said. I totally agree.
  12. Re:I'm just jealous of Indians... on Outsourced Call Centers Losing Feasibility? · · Score: 1

    LOL, Vindaloo actually has origins in Portuguese cuisine, where it's called "Vinha d'Alho". The Indian version is more "intense" because extra ingredients such as chilli and curry have been added to give it more of a native personality. A terrific dish, nonetheless.

  13. Re:Know what would be funny? on Microsoft Ponders Windows Successor · · Score: 2, Interesting

    Doesn't MS still own a considerable portion of Apple?

  14. Re:Not quite. on IBM Motion to Limit SCO Claims Granted · · Score: 1

    Yes, and as a result they don't take showers. With that kind of B.O., it's no wonder the judge dismissed 185 allegations...he was compelled to do it!
