    You fight disease with the spleen you have. Not the spleen you want.

    Or if you prefer something more highbrow, All The Bard's Spleens.

    For fun, be sure to check out the alt.spleen FAQ.

  2. Lego cases don't impress me... by Gorbag · · Score: 1 · on Build Your Own Lego Computer Case
    Now what does impress me is this project - to build an actual digital computer out of lego...

    This hearkens back to the kind of masochism out of which a true hacker is born....

  3. Building blocks of usability -- LEGO by Ilan+Volow · · Score: 1 · on Why Users Hate IT Products and Developers
    The idea that something can't be both easy-to-use and powerful is ridiculous. Take LEGO for example.
    • LEGO is easy to use. It simply snaps together.A five year old kid (or even a 30 year old one) can learn to use it in 5 minutes.
    • LEGO is powerful. You can build robots,Computer cases, and even Computers themselves with it.

    You are correct, I believe that computers be remanufacturable. However I don't believe that we can do this with today's technology coming from Intel, So I volunteer these open source plans for building a computer with reusable materials.

  5. Scanner returns an ID number -- privacy concerns by __roo · · Score: 3 · on Free Barcode Reader From Radio Shack

    I threw together a little quick and dirty script to decode the scanner output. But while I was doing it I noticed that the scanner sends back three things: the barcode, a code type (i.e. UPC, ISBN, etc.), and a long number that's always the same. Is this some sort of ID or serial number? Does anyone else find that creepy?
