  1. Re:After 14 years Java apps are still 2nd class on Sun To Build World's Biggest App Store Around Java · · Score: 1

    Half the browsers leave little .jnlp turds all over your download folder or desktop.

    I laughed so hard when I read this that my coffee shot out of my nose.

  2. Update on Flying Micro-Robot Takes Off · · Score: 3, Funny

    Should change the text to:

    "It moves around and manipulates objects with laser-powered micro-grippers, which includes (when millions work in unison) HUMAN HEADS!!"

    Well, I bet they'd get more funding if they worded it that way, anyway.

  3. Re:Islam, eh? on UK To Train Pro-West Islamic Groups To Game Google · · Score: 1

    >>some evangelicals in the US marrying multiple teenage girls,

    What??

    Evangelicals don't do this. Are you referring to that Texas compound? That was a radical offshoot Mormon group, which is not Evangelical Christian in any way.

  4. Re:Everytime I see this phrase... on What If Oracle Bought Sun Microsystems? · · Score: 1

    Mission Control: We're trying to contact Satellite XR-546....Hello? Hello?

    Satellite XR-546: (nothing)

    Mission Control: Hello? Hello?

    Satellite XR-546: (nothing)

    Mission Control: Hello?

    Satellite XR-546: Blip... Blip...

    Mission Control: That's funny... after compensating for the speed of light and the distance of the spacecraft, there's an extra lag in time in the response for some reason...

    Satellite XR-546: Blip...(lag!).... Blip...

  5. Re:improbability drive on Quantum Setback For Warp Drives · · Score: 1

    I think that we should therefore merge this thread with this one.

    There are many here among us that feel that life is but a joke...

  6. Re:improbability drive on Quantum Setback For Warp Drives · · Score: 3, Funny

    I think you've got a point. All this time we've been trying to invent warp drives. What we really should be doing is inventing Cylons, so that they can in turn invent better propulsion systems than us.

  7. Re:A concentrator! on Princeton Student Finds Bug In LHC Experiment · · Score: 1

    Maybe she is the ancestor to Han Qing-jao in Orson Scott Card's Xenocide, who also could concentrate very hard to solve problems.

  8. Re:Considering Galatica ends this weekend on Sci Fi Channel Becoming Less Geek-Centric "SyFy" · · Score: 1

    Mod parent up on BSG being the only thing worth watching.

    I am amazed that we haven't seen a three-way Cylon/Colonial/Vampire battle by now.

  9. Re:Choices... on FBI Searches New Fed CIO Kundra's Former Offices · · Score: 0, Troll

    You must be new here...

    A moderation of "Troll" on /. often (but not always) means: "inconvenient fact."

  10. Re:Appstore apps are too limited on The Realities of Selling On Apple's App Store · · Score: 1
  11. Re:Too bad, so sad on Diebold Election Audit Logs Defective · · Score: 1

    >>But fortunately THESE election results were valid, unlike your Mr. Chimp's first election by judge.

    By what recount, what process and what law was it invalid?

  12. Re:Not sure about other places but the US has... on Flying Car Flies From London To Africa · · Score: 0, Offtopic

    Does it turn into Wonderbug if you honk its horn? Looks kinda like Schlepcar.

  13. Re:Rocket science? on Arctic Ice Extent Understated Because of "Sensor Drift" · · Score: 1

    Yes, I am, and I stand by that claim. "Al Gore stated the world would end in 10 years." You want to mince words to pretend that you don't look like an idiot.

  14. Re:Rocket science? on Arctic Ice Extent Understated Because of "Sensor Drift" · · Score: 1

    My God, stop now. We are all laughing at you.

  15. Re:Rocket science? on Arctic Ice Extent Understated Because of "Sensor Drift" · · Score: 1

    Yeah, what he said.

  16. Re:But ... Its british. on Spaceplane Concept Receives Euro Funding · · Score: 0, Offtopic

    Skylon....

    All this *has* happened before, and it will happen again.

    We're frakked.

  17. Re:Rocket science? on Arctic Ice Extent Understated Because of "Sensor Drift" · · Score: 1

    Yes he did. 10 years in fact. (3 years ago, so now it is 7)

  18. Re:Everyone on Web Scam Bilks State of Utah Out of $2.5M · · Score: 4, Funny

    What happened to:

    "Government scam bilks America out of $800 Billion"?

  19. Re:The first link... on Quantum Camera On a Silicon Chip · · Score: 1

    This is a quantum first post.

    However, the act of you looking for it at the top of this thread changed its state, and now it is here.

  20. Re:Am I missing something? on Obama Staffers Followed Palin's Email Lead On Inauguration Day · · Score: 1

    But since Obama says so, let's all just believe it.

  21. Re:Expected on Woman Claims Ubuntu Kept Her From Online Classes · · Score: 1

    Well, I was going to go into a tirade about how stupid the girl is,

    Now now. She's just not computer literate. This isn't the same thing.

  22. Re:Short answer: on Saving Journalism With Flash and Java · · Score: 5, Funny

    With the power of Java applets, we will discover a brand new dimension of "breaking news".

  23. I know the solution on Is a 'Katrina-Like' Space Storm Brewing? · · Score: 5, Funny

    Space Carbon Credits are the answer. Make the check out to me.

  25. Re:Global Warning on Is the Yellowstone Supervolcano About To Blow? · · Score: 1

    Can it be somehow taxed? If so, then yes.
