  1. Let's test it out.... on Bloggers Immune From Suits Against Commenters · · Score: 4, Funny

    Microsoft sells your soul to satan!

    *runs*

  2. Re:A beautiful woman? on What Vista Is Really Like · · Score: 1

    Oh, so that's where the Fight Club quote came from.

    "Well, it could be worse. A woman could chop of your penis while you sleep and toss it out the window of a moving car."
    "Yeah, there's always that."

  3. I disagree on Silicon Valley - Still Important To Tech Advances · · Score: 1, Funny

    Silicon Valley is the place to be

    /blockquote I disagree, I'd have to say I'd prefer Silicone Valley. It's a lot more attractive of an area. ;)
  4. Re:OK... on Apple Mac/PC Ads With a UK Twist · · Score: 3, Informative

    Are the ads funny? Yes.

    Are the ads true? ...not so much.

    Come on, these ads try to suggest that photo albums and videos/music are only available on the Mac. Please.

  5. Re:Please try to remember... on The Privacy Candidate · · Score: 1

    but on the other hand what I'm hearing when you say this is: "She will support the opinion that the majority want," which is the point of a representational government.

    No, you misunderstood. What he said is that "she will support the opinion that the majority wants to get her elected." Further, it means that we don't even know that the hell she really supports, which makes it all the more frightening.
  6. Oh, just what I needed... on Gates Proclaims Internet to Revolutionize TV in 5 Years · · Score: 5, Funny

    ...the blue screen of death on my TV set.

  7. Re:IE8? on Firefox 3 Plans and IE8 Speculation · · Score: 1

    But Firefox 2.0 actually officially came out AFTER Internet Explorer 7 did.

  8. Good or bad? on FCC Opens Market for Cable Boxes · · Score: 1

    This could be great because you have a competitive market where companies will try and add space and features, but...

    First of all, couldn't this render a company's DVR useless? I mean the DVR could be completely controlled by the cable box at that point, so... the service would be obsolete. Second, does this mean that on July 1st, a Comcast guy is going to come to my house, take back his cable box, and hand me a card, expecting me to go out and buy one? I seriously hope the company still intends to supply me with a cable box.

    I don't like where this is going.

  9. Elsewhere? on Details on San Francisco's Free Wifi · · Score: 1

    So what's the news of this being implemented elsewhere? You can be sure that there are a lot of cities in the world that could use this just as much... New York City, for instance? I want to hear details of this idea sprouting up elsewhere.

  10. Just what we need... on New Molecules for a Faster Internet · · Score: 4, Funny

    more tubes.

  11. Re:Make the ads a game themselves! on In Game Ads May Just Not Work · · Score: 2, Interesting

    Or even better, have companies create games to help advertise their companies, and release them cheap.

    Ever heard of Sneak King?

  12. A new medium for an age old problem on Criminals Target Tech Students With Job Offers · · Score: 2, Insightful

    This isn't anything new really. I mean I even feel redundant saying this. Where there's commerce, there's crime. Where there's crime, there's organization. Gangs have simply moved on from convincing kids on street corners to steal some stuff into convincing kids in chatrooms to hack into some websites. It was only a matter of time.

  13. Re:Not long now on AMD QuadFX Platform and FX-70 Series Launched · · Score: 1

    You wouldn't call Vista intensive process? ;)

  14. Re:North Korea is dark on US Bans Sales of iPods To North Korea · · Score: 1

    You can't have a serious pollution issue if YOUR PEOPLE CAN'T AFFORD CARS.

  15. Re:So lets get this straight on BitTorrent Partners with TV and Movie Companies · · Score: 1

    There's a difference between a company willing to comply, and a company that isn't. And the reasons for this are simple: AllofMP3 is perfectly legal under russian law. BitTorrent under US law... not so easy to say.

    Not to say I'm defending the RIAA or the MPAA; I hate them both with a passion. But it certainly makes sense, and it's not as sinister as it sounds.

  16. The bad and the ugly? on Old Mobiles — the Bad and the Ugly · · Score: 4, Interesting

    I certainly wouldn't classify the Motorola StarTAC as bad or ugly. In fact, as far as mobile phones went, it was certainly ahead of its time. I remember seeing those things years and years ago... I thought they looked pretty sweet, to be honest. From the picture they have on the site, it certainly doesn't fit under bad or ugly.

  17. Re:The Chinese government did the right thing. on China Jails Porn Site Leader For Life · · Score: 1

    Mod parent up, +1 owned.

  18. Grrr! on Giant Mexican Telescope Launched · · Score: 2, Funny

    The telescope is built on the 4,580m (15,026ft) summit of an extinct volcano called Sierra Negra - the fifth highest peak in Mexico.

    I'll get you, Powerpuff Girls!
  19. A certain Bash.org quote comes to mind on Indians Use Google Earth and GPS To Protect Amazon · · Score: 5, Funny

    Reminds me of a certain bash.org quote...

    <Rebbel> Man Google Earth is awesome
    <Android18> Why?
    <Rebbel> Im looking at my house
    <Rebbel> brb, pizzas here
    <BFMV> Now thats what i call technology

  20. Let me guess... on Making the Sounds of Vista · · Score: 3, Funny

    Let me guess... the BSOD sound is going to be "One More Red Nightmare"? :)

  21. Oh really on Nuclear Tech Race Is On In Middle East · · Score: 1

    However, the International Institute for Strategic Studies, suggests that the sudden interest in nuclear technology is driven by the desire of the six nations to create a 'security hedge' in response to Iran's recent nuclear development program."

    Hmm... YA THINK?
  22. Oh, come on... on Red Hat Says They'll Be In Linux Long After Novell · · Score: 2, Informative

    Do you really have to go and call it 'Microvell'? It's a partnership, not a merger. Don't get them confused.

  23. Wow... on GeForce 8800GTX Benchmarked · · Score: 1

    That looks... expensive.

  24. Re:LOL IE Users! on Another Denial of Service Bug Found in Firefox 2 · · Score: 3, Insightful

    Except let's see how long it takes for the Firefox team to patch up these flaws as opposed to IE.

  25. I wouldn't leave this out. on New Mac-o-Lantern · · Score: 1

    As cool as it is, I certainly wouldn't leave it out on my porch... someone's gonna steal that motha'.
