    Hey, maybe they'll give free Tux shirts for reading through their Get The Facts on Linux campaign FUD.

    Be warned though, while they are also strong against scissors, safety-rocks can, in fact, be defeated by paper. Be sure to keep all of your office supplies locked up. You might even want to look into going all electronic.

  13. Re:So how many on Men Willing to Give up Sex for a 50in TV · · Score: 1

    Nope, I was just thinking about my girlfriend... apparently I'm getting off cheap. (No pun intended.)

  14. Re:So how many on Men Willing to Give up Sex for a 50in TV · · Score: 1

    6 months of sex costs a lot more than a 50-inch tv...

  15. Re:A 50 inch TV? That just makes it easy on Men Willing to Give up Sex for a 50in TV · · Score: 5, Funny

    I got it taken away from me for 6 months too. It was the worst day of my life, and for the bleak 6 months after, I thought many times of ending it all. I would spend hours staring at a blank wall, thinking of what I had before. Eventually the despair and self-doubt forced me to become a better man. So I hauled my sorry ass up, got a haircut, a new job and finally was able to buy myself another TV.

  18. This phone will be fantastic! on Modu Unveils Modular, Transformer-style Phone · · Score: 1

    This phone will be a fantastic product, where people will be able to simply and easily link their mobile connection to all kinds of innovative products created by the community and the market! The wky is the limit!

    Unless for some reason they make all the standards for building the jackets proprietary and unavailable to the public... but a cell phone company would NEVER do that!

  19. Re:Every three days? on Undersea Cable Cut Circumstances Examined · · Score: 1

    The cables in this case were actually cut in a restricted area. No busy shipping lane involved.

    Don't forget economics as well, the actual best we can do is a cost effective problem. Laying down 50 cables is going to be a good bit cheaper than laying one titanium pipeline. And the titanium will break sometimes too!

  20. Re:Just wondering on Microsoft Launches IT Superhero Comic · · Score: 1

    It's Microsoft's little prank - make people use a hack to view their hacker comic. They do this sort of thing all the time actually, with a lot of their products. Little pranks as a nod to the hacker community, that we have to hack around. They understand how these things amuse us. In fact, if you can keep this in mind, you'll come to the burning realization that Microsoft is a fucking comedy goldmine.

  21. Re:Not very on A Torrid Tale of Plagiarizing Paleontologists · · Score: 1

    Isn't is amusing how the original point is modded +2 for being interesting, while the joke about plagiarizing is given a +3 funny moderation score? If things continue in this fashion, a paraphrase of a summary, even though said summary was deemed worthless by it's own author, is likely to get a higher moderation score than the first two!
