  1. Re:Uh... What? on Music From DNA Patented · · Score: 2, Funny

    For reproductive organs the sex pistols will play :-)

  2. smart business decision? on Dell Asking ATI For Better Linux Drivers · · Score: 1

    smart business decision? if ATI didn't release the drivers for linux it was because they wouldn't make very much money. Giving a small percentage of their customers a driver that could cost thousands or millions to develop isn't what many people would consider a smart business decision. Just ask netgear who decided not to support AMD chipsets, which make up a measly %60-70 of the market, with the WG311v3. This is not flamebait, I am making a point.

  3. Re:what's wrong with T1me Out on Fox News' FTP Password Anyone? · · Score: 1

    Don't post my password on the internet! just kidding, but i do have a complex password such as YwMCU07D.

  4. Re:Can't play any Hank Williams? Sing Über Al on Music Industry Shaking Down Coffee Shops · · Score: 1

    Actually the Über Alles a nickname of the German national anthem, not necessarily the Nazi party national anthem. Über Alles is what it is called out side of the US, by it's first few lines. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Das_Lied_der_Deutsche n.

  5. http://yro.slashdot.org/tags/mafiaa on Music Industry Shaking Down Coffee Shops · · Score: 1
  6. why not just on Armed Police Bots with Stun Guns · · Score: 2, Insightful

    Why not just have the bots detain people instead of arming them with something that could seriously injure or kill someone (heart-atacks, etc.)

  7. Vault on How Much Caffeine is Really in That Soda? · · Score: 1

    I thought that vault would have 2 or 3x more than coke... it is an energy drink, right?

  8. Re:Pirates disgust me on Piracy More Serious Than Bank Robbery? · · Score: 1

    This comment, of course, is leaving out the fact that people die in bank robberies and rarely do so in a pirating scheme.

  9. Re:And that's +5 Informative? on Microsoft Quietly Releases Windows 2003 SP2 · · Score: 1

    [b]MAJOR[/B] Sorry, had to do that.

  10. Re:Nice Timing on Meetings Make You Dumber · · Score: 1

    and it took you 15 minutes to reply to that :)

  11. Re:Forgive me for stating the obvious on Golfer Sues Over Vandalized Wikipedia Entry · · Score: 1, Insightful

    You can't sue for someone exercising free speech, you can only sue someone for saying something that is both false and harmful. For example, Microsoft cannot sue apple for their ads, because they are true (to some extent), and someone who says something about someone that is false, but does not cause any damage cannot be held liable for that.

  12. Re:If they'd just fix each other... on When Malware Attacks Malware · · Score: 0

    It windows defender fixed a virus I had a while back

  13. Why is this tax going on the device? on Canadian Copyright Group Wants iPod Tax · · Score: 0

    The money is lost when the music is not bought, not when it is transferred to a device.

  14. Re:ring ring on Bill Gates Brags About Vista, Reacts to Apple's Latest Ads · · Score: 0, Redundant

    Does anyone else think that a name that could be pronounced the same as "the mafia" for 2 companies that have mafia-like tactics might have been a bad idea?

  15. Re:Killing the car while diving can be just as bad on Toyota Creating In-Vehicle Alcohol Detection System · · Score: 1

    I don't think that the car would just slam on the brakes, it would most likely slow down a dozen miles per hour in a minute, so that cars would notice that someone is getting stuck and just move around.

  16. well.... on Apple Closes iSight Security Hole · · Score: 1

    I do enjoy lounging in the nude while on my computer... so I am glad this was fixed

  17. Re:Web sites may have deleterious effects? on Bad Web Sites Can Cause "Mouse Rage" · · Score: 1

    The "New" site isn't much better. It has his name in GOOGLE LETTERS!

  18. Re:Stereo smell. on Human Sense of Smell Underestimated · · Score: 1

    I disagree, if nostrils were mounted on either side of the head, the respiratory system would be significantly slowed, and we would not be able to smell something by sticking our nose in front of it. We would have to turn our head and lower our head much more.

  19. Re:Chair sales in Redmond skyrocket on Microsoft Workers Prefer Google · · Score: 1

    windows live... pretty cool, i don't understand why so many people use google (i use it too) ask.com has this cool thing where you can broaden or expand your search w/o typing something else in... Google just rolls of the tounge in a way "windows live" never can (Hey, why don't you windows live some research? no thanks)

  20. I would say... on AOL Tries New Tactic to Keep Customers · · Score: 1

    I think that the best idea for this sort of thing is that if they give you any trouble ask for their boss if they won't give you their boss, hang up and call again until you get a helpful representative

  21. pretty sure on Wii-mote In Action · · Score: 1

    pretty sure that it is a network of gameworlds...:) !

  22. hmmmm... on Python-to-C++ Compiler · · Score: 1

    i can't figure out how to get python to do anything but figure pi... :( oh! but that cool calculator feature is so cool!!! thanks to python i know that 2+2/2*6+8-4+23/432 infact equals 12 :)

  23. Why don't you... on Sending Mail to Hotmail Users? · · Score: 1

    Why don't you make a hotmail account and try testing your message by sending it to yourself, if it gets put into the junk, try again. If you have a whole bunch of words like "promotion" and "vacation" methinks it will be blocked, but if you make the email say "hey bob, just wondering what you did on your first day of summer" then it might let it though. Experement with it. I don't think that there are IP whitelists, because before it found the wonder that is Gmail I would get emails from support and they had random domains that i don't think that hotmail would whitelist.

  24. why don't you... on Has My Cell Number Been Cloned? · · Score: 1

    does your phone bill include what number these calls were from? if so, try to call that person back. If he starts talking to you about bombs and such before realizing it is not the person on the Caller ID, then call CTU (the one with Jack Bauer). They will set up a trace on the call and then start shooting his kneecaps if he doesn't tell you what they are planning....

    Or, as was suggested earlier, call up and before saying anything ask for the person's name and boss's number. That way if he does hang up, you are one step further up the chain of command. You could even keep doing the same thing until you get the CEO on the line. :)

  25. hmmmm on 2006 Software War Map between FOSS and Microsoft · · Score: 1

    I don't see why AJAX is fighting against hotmail while Gmail is.... what is Gmail doing anyways?
