  1. Re:Forever? on Mars Probe Probably Lost Forever · · Score: 1

    Too bad this future civilization will have not method of getting the data off the legacy storage device in the probe...

  2. Re:Like a snake around the brainstem on Second Life Hit By Massive In-Game Worm · · Score: 1

    Damn you beat me to it...

    So me and my friends were just enjoying the concert when these two guys jumped onto the stage on bikes and started fighting. Pretty trippy light show though...

  3. Price might have had a lot to do with it on Official PlayStation Magazine Discontinued · · Score: 1

    If I recall correctly, the Official PlayStation Magazine was always really spendy per issue. For your dollar you could get another gaming magazine that has all console (and possilby also PC) games in it for less.

    Also a lot of gamers now own multiple systems, and would want reviews and news for all the new games.

  4. Re:The ads are amusing, but on Justin Long No Longer A Mac · · Score: 1

    White Ninja

  5. Re:Will they be able to make things better? on Democrats Take House, Senate Undecided · · Score: 1

    Come see the violence inherent in the system! Come see the violence inherent in the system!

    (That wasnt able to get through the lameness filter on the first try) :(

  6. Re:Is this a UK Only thing? on Dell Customer Gets Windows Refund · · Score: 1

    They probably don't want to, the profit gained with all the bloatware means that Windows doesn't cost Dell anything. We saw this when they sold naked and Linux machines.

  7. Emo :'( on Worst Christmas Ever For Gadgets? · · Score: 2, Funny
    "It's enough to make you slit your wrists with the shards of a smashed Christmas tree bauble..."
    Wow... emo.
  8. Oh my... on GeForce 8800GTX Benchmarked · · Score: 1

    Does that thing have TWO PCI-E power jacks?

  9. CYBERNATOR on Some of the Best Game Levels of All Time · · Score: 1

    My favorite battle is from the SNES game cybernator. You play as a 30 foot tall powered mech. After a raid where you kick a space station's ass, you end up falling to earth and igniting in the atmosphere. Of course enemies try to follow you and fight you as you fall to your inevitable doom. (Might as well kill them so hell won't be too lonely.) At the last second the dropship picks you up (google video Battlestar Galactica's "Battle of New Caprica".)

    The games manual describes this level as "makes the Battle of Waterloo look like the Invasion of Grenada. I don't know if there is enough bad guys to justify that, but it does earn my favorite level award. Also, this level seamlessly transitioned into the next level.

  10. Let Maddox Cure You on Testosterone Tumbling in American Males · · Score: 1

    Maddox is going to make this all better. http://alphabetofmanliness.com/

  11. Newest version of software has minor flaws on Nine Reasons To Skip Firefox 2.0 · · Score: 1

    Video at 10.

  12. I'm gonna get flamed so bad for this... on Firefox 2.0 Officially Released · · Score: 1

    I agree it looks nice, but when I first saw it the first thing out of my mouth was: "It looks exactly like Opera."

    At least they toned down that ugly beige color.

  13. Can't wait to get it on Firefox 2 Launch - Interview With Chris Beard · · Score: 1

    I've got my copy preordered. I should also go preorder the Web 2.0.

  14. Unreadable on Why Apple Failed in the 90s · · Score: 1

    That is far and above the ugliest and most unreadable "news" site I have ever seen. I wrecked three keyboards typing that last sentence alone because I keep bleeding from my eyes onto my keys.

  15. Re:The meta-article: on Internet Addicts As Ill As Alcoholics? · · Score: 1

    That's just so... meta.

  16. Please Don't Feed the Dvorak on Dvorak on Windows Genuine Advantage · · Score: 3, Funny

    The guy is a troll who writes his "articles" by stringing as many buzzwords as possible into one paragraph. Pretty soon he'll be telling us that Vista will run on a Mactel as a browser-based application but only for those who subscribe to Verizon FiOS, is Google in on this and how will this affect Net Neutrality?

  17. But it's an Apple on Apple Should Get Out of Hardware? · · Score: 1

    The article totally neglects the fact that this is Apple and they can charge what they want for hardware.

    Apple is selling their hardware at 40% profit, and their user base pays that. Dell needs the Intel discount because they made 5% profit according to the Fortune 500 index. (Although their warranties must be kicking their ass.)

  18. Associative Property on This Rare Friday the 13th · · Score: 1
    The digits in the numerical notation for the date add up to 13 whether you write it in the US or the European form.

    It's called the associative http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Associative_property
  19. Oh Rly? on Future Eudora Based on Thunderbird · · Score: 1

    But does it run on Linux? Oh wait...

  20. Re:Randy Random says we've seen enough on The Perception of 'Random' on the iPod · · Score: 1

    I would like you to think about what "Anonymous Coward" means.

    As for threatening to go elsewhere- do so. Save the drama; you're not special.

  21. How do we solve all this indescision? on Analysts Split Over Vista Launch Date · · Score: 1

    You could, I don't know... ASK MSFT!

    If that's where the bar starts, than anyone on /. could call themself an "analyst."

  22. Re:Cooling! on Are Hard Disk Warranties Worthless? · · Score: 1

    At first I read that: ...and many classmates.

    Will someone PLEASE think of the children???

  23. Rifleman's Creed v1.1 on Power Suit Promises Super-Human Strength · · Score: 5, Funny

    This is my powered armor suit. There are many like it, but this one is mine. My suit is my best friend. It is my life. I must master it as I must master my life.
    My suit, without me, is useless. Without my suit, I am useless. I must fire my tatical nuclear ordinance true. I must shoot straighter than my enemy who is trying to kill me.
    I must vaporize him before he shoots me. I will...
    My suit and myself know that what counts in this war is not the rounds we fire, the noise of our burst, nor the smoke we make. We know that it is the hits that count. We will hit...
    My armor suit is human, even as I, because it is my life. Thus, I will learn it as a brother. I will learn its weaknesses, its strength, its parts, its accessories, its sights and its negative force feedback. I will ever guard it against the ravages of weather and damage as I will ever guard my legs, my arms, my eyes and my heart against damage. I will keep my powered armor suit clean and ready. We will become part of each other. We will...
    Before God, I swear this creed. My suit and myself are the defenders of my country. We are the masters of our enemy. We are the saviors of my life...
    So be it, until victory is Terra's and there is no enemy, but peace!

  24. Wininng on Power Suit Promises Super-Human Strength · · Score: 2, Funny

    Does this mean I can now use my nerdy prowess as a physical advantage?

    I.E.: finally win a armwrestling match for once in my life.

  25. Nightvision... on Counter-Strike Opens Weapons Market · · Score: 1

    So does this mean the nightvision goggles will become free?
