    If you pile up enough processors on this thing, you'll either reach the sky or have more computing power than God at some point. Looks fun though.

  5. What's up with the rods? by binaryDigit · · Score: 3, Funny

    In some of the pix, there are two rods on opposite corners. Then in one pic, all four rods are there. But then in some other pix there are two rods in a single side. I think that this is a rod conspiracy. All these pictures are not of the same unit, no sir ree bob. That page was obviously pieced together from multiple units being put together in multiple locations over some period of time. For what nefarious purpose, only Alex Jones would know (I swear, if you look real close in one of the pics, you can see a tiny black helicopter in the reflection of the DMM).
