  1. Re:Or like an actual PARENT on To Curb Truancy, Dallas Tries Electronic Monitoring · · Score: 1

    Selling Point: It also injects your kid with his ADHD meds and tranquilizers for those moments when you just need 5 minutes of silence! Now available in hot pink.

  2. Re:Obvious answer... on PC Gaming Suggestions for Console-like Fun? · · Score: 1

    Gametap has a lot of old school games. Every single one of them runs flawlessly (yes, even on Vista). Cheap price for a plethora of fun games. On a side note: Games today are way to easy, try beating all 255 levels of pacman. Some of these old school games are far tougher then COD4 or any other item.

  3. This news on Blizzard to Boll - DENIED! · · Score: 0, Troll

    was so yesterday. Get with it /.

  4. Re:Wrong, wrong, wrong! on RIAA Sues Homeless Man · · Score: 1

    The RIAA has enough money to buy (fabricate) evidence.

  5. Re:Wrong, wrong, wrong! on RIAA Sues Homeless Man · · Score: 1

    I hope this homeless fellow has a decent public defender. Counter-sue and get a nice chunk of change, hopefully get his life back on track.

  6. Re:Pretty much dead wrong there. on US Does Surprisingly Well in Internet Survey · · Score: 1
    We could send you some illegal immigrants if you're lonely up there in Cananda. The US is being overrun, we'd be happy to share.

    More on topic: I think it's a skewed comparison. Total populations and land size need to be factored in. Well you might say pop density accounts for it. It doesn't, not quite. If you multiplied South Koreas land mass to equal the US they'd kick our ass in regards to "readiness" In fact I believe they're already ahead of us, but I didn't RTFA.

  7. pr0n on Experts Hack Power Grid in Less Than a Day · · Score: 1

    >>>>Ira Winkler, a penetration-testing consultant With a name and job title like that you'd think he worked in a different industry...

  8. Re:I have only one eye on Pixar to Release All New Movies in 3D · · Score: 1
    Was it a laser accident?

    Let's keep the regular 2D animation thx.

  9. Re:Great Blazing Colors on What Font Color Is Best For Eyes? · · Score: 1

    The RedGreen show on PBS must really mess with your head.

  10. Re:tinfoil hat on Sweat Ducts May Act As Antenna For Lie Detection · · Score: 1
    We also know the fluid capacity of Monica's mouth is 1 US Leader(liter)

    All jokes aside, what if it's just a plain hot day. No lie detecting then? I know people who sweat watching TV when it's 70 degrees(F).

  11. WTF? on Computer Games Make Players Less Violent · · Score: 1

    The game has over 10 million players and they could only find 292 for this study? Pick a bigger sampling before you write these "f'ing duh" reports.

  12. Re:The Cogwheel Brain on Programmer Buys Original Ada Lovelace Painting On eBay · · Score: 1

    As far as major role models for female software developers go I pick Grace Hopper, who is on record as having had considerable involvement in computer development, and may, or may not have coined the term "computer bug".

    Grace Hopper is only a jump (bad pun, I know) away from grasshopper..."computer" bug huh. I smell conspiracy.

  13. How long on Another Web-Based Game Targeting Casual Gamers Launches · · Score: 1

    until someone gets hooked and dies after a 3 day binge?

  14. Uh Oh on Doctors To Control Robot Surgeon With Their Eyes · · Score: 1

    My Doctor is cross-eyed :(

  15. Re:Unlawful on Blue Lights To Reset Internal Clocks · · Score: 1

    I drive a 2007 Honda, no blue lights anywhere. It might only apply to headlights. LEDs aren't terribly bright, I'd doubt anyone would confuse them with the Police. Strip lighting around the interior from "Pimpin Your Ride" might.

  16. Crime & Punishment on MD Bill Would Criminalize Theft of Wireless Access · · Score: 1

    Does the punishment fit the crime? Router manufacturers should force you to secure your connection before enabling it? I could see 3 yrs in prison (hopefully longer) if you were piggy backing surfing child pr0n.

  17. Unlawful on Blue Lights To Reset Internal Clocks · · Score: 1

    In this state (MN) I believe it is considered "unlawful" to have blue lights inside your car as that color, along with red, is reserved for the emergency vehicles...

  18. Re:Auto upbreak. on Vista Service Pack 1 Is Out · · Score: 1
    0 issues as well here. Running Vista 32bit Premium, 680i LT, Core2Duo E6750 2.8, 2gigs of Corsair RAM, GeForce 8800 GTS640mb, 250GB SATA. I honestly believe the "Vista Haters" are people who either: a)buy into the whole media barrage b)hate it because it's "popular" or "cool" or c)have an actual legitimate problem (1% of all vista users is my guess, the vocal minority no doubt)

    Disclaimer: No actual facts listed with the exception of PC Specs, just casual observation.

  19. Re:To justify God's ways to man on Scientists' Success Or Failure Correlated With Beer · · Score: 1

    Maybe you need to buy the slashcoders a round or two...

  20. Re:Thanks Global Warming on 'Death Star' Aimed at Earth · · Score: 2, Funny

    Everybody know that's Nuclear Winter will cancel out Global Warming.

  21. Um Asteroid... on Astronomers Say Dying Sun Will Engulf Earth · · Score: 1

    Except when we all die in 2035 from the asteroid.

  22. Oh really on DVD Jon Creates DRM Killer · · Score: 1

    Can it strip the DRM of iTunes songs and put them in a nice .mp3 format?

  23. Well as far on Scientology Given Direct Access To eBay Database · · Score: 1

    as access to eBay goes. I think this would be a great step for online games companies (ie Blizzard, Funcom, Sony) to stop RMT for their digital products. Granted much of the market is on individual company sites and not eBay but I see character auctions for MMOs listed there fairly often. For the CoS: My religion thinks item _____ is bad *auction deleted*

  24. Re:PENIS PENIS HAHAHAHAHAHA PENIS on Nanowires of Unlimited Length · · Score: 1

    Brings a whole new meaning to karma whoring...

  25. Re:Here we go again... on SP1 Unsuccessful in Preventing Vista Hacks · · Score: 3, Funny

    I actually typed my Starcraft CD key so many times I ended up memorizing it. 2518-77178-9492
