    what color is it today? Of course I don't know, it's rocket science, for pete's sake!

  2. Re:A language that compiles to JS on Ask Slashdot: Making JavaScript Tolerable For a Dyed-in-the-Wool C/C++/Java Guy? · · Score: 1
    From your sig:

    Troll is not a replacement for I disagree.

    You are wrong! "Score:-1, Troll" for you!

  3. Re:I know is a bit offtopic, but... on Interactive Games and Concept Cars (Video) · · Score: 1

    I don't think this is offtopic, just a little short-sighted.

  4. Begun! on Anonymous Takes Down DOJ, RIAA, MPA and Universal Music · · Score: 3, Funny

    Begun, the Internet War has!

  5. Why? on Do Slashdotters Encrypt Their Email? · · Score: 1

    Why should I encrypt youtube links of lolcats I send to my wife?

  6. NOTHING will be enough if you are too paranoid on Ask Slashdot: Best Way To Destroy Hard Drives? · · Score: 1

    Some physicists think that not even black holes can destroy information in a quantic level, making it possible to deterministically revert any physical destruction. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Black_hole_information_paradox But if you are not that paranoid, drill a hole and pour some muriatic acid in it.

    Or was that a pair programming from 50 years ago?

  10. Re:Still a better prognosis? on Cancer Cured By HIV · · Score: 3, Interesting

    Your point is compelling, but some people might think that lifeSpan != life.

  11. Re:Kilos on The Rain On Saturn Falls Mainly From Space · · Score: 1

    What are "kilos"? The article never mentions them.

    Wrong forum, kid. You should be asking this on Yahoo Answers.

  12. Re: What alternative services are there? on Why Netflix Had To Raise Its Prices · · Score: 1

    I would ditch Pirate Bay if I there was Netflix in my country. Hell, I would do that even if the price is twice it is now!

  13. Re:My only problem... on The Hidden Evil of the Microtransaction · · Score: 1

    [...] I think if a game offers something something in exchange for real money (aside from possibly the game itself), it should not affect gameplay itself. Maybe someone really wants a slightly different looking avatar, and if they want to pay a few dollars for it, so be it, it doesn't hinder anyone else's enjoyment of the game. [...]

    You should check Turbine's Dungeons & Dragons Online. They made it pretty right.

    Oh, thanks heavens... I started to worry that I had REALLY overslept...

    I'm not addicted. I stop whenever I want!

  19. Re:Isn't this is worse then 4 days? on World of Warcraft Goes Free With Starter Edition · · Score: 1

    This supposed friend of yours is a liar. It's impossible to get to level 85 in a day, unless you start at level 84. (Disclaimer: I've been playing WoW for almost 2 years, I think I know well, this game at this point.)

  20. Re:Great for Brazil on US Senate Votes For Repeal of Ethanol Subsidies · · Score: 1

    Lucky you... on my car the threshold is below 65%...

  21. Re:Great for Brazil on US Senate Votes For Repeal of Ethanol Subsidies · · Score: 1

    [...] It's used by more than half of Brazilian cars and it's generally cheaper than gasoline, without any subsidies.

    It is cheaper "per liter", not "per kilometer", unfortunatelly. Until 2 years ago I would fill my car's tank with ethanol only. Now I use gasoline because the cost per kilometer is lower with gasoline.

    Hopefully the price of ethanol here in Brazil won't rise too much, thanks to the larger demand.

    You don't live in Brazil, do you? We already had a big rise in the ethanol price because of the international price of sugar. Sugar cane farmers prefer to turn their crops into sugar than into ethanol for bigger profits. If the demand on the ethanol increases, it will be more expensive than gasoline PER LITER!

  22. Re:Obligatory XKCD on What's Killing Your Wi-Fi? · · Score: 1

    My cat is named Nacho. And he once tipped my wi-fi router. Does it count as a Nacho-dropped wi-fi?

  23. Re:Time to cut them off... on Google Loses Autocomplete Defamation Case · · Score: 1

    This would be nice to see, but I don't want to be around when a corporation can force a government to overrule a court decision.

  24. Re:Take it to a uni on The Story of My As-Yet-Unverified Impact Crater · · Score: 1

    [...] and that pi is bigger than 3. I wouldn't believe a scientist!

    Sorry, but PI *ACTUALLY* is 4: http://28.media.tumblr.com/tumblr_lbxrvcK4pk1qbylvso1_400.png

  25. Re:Some, not all... on Old-School Coding Techniques You May Not Miss · · Score: 1

    fuck punch cards

    No, thanks. I'd prefer to fuck a 5-1/4 inch floppie, at least it has a bigger hole.
