Turning Dead Drives into Speakers?

Posted by CmdrTaco on from the because-you-can dept.

An anonymous reader writes "Why pay 500$ for Klipsch's latest speaker system? You can make something that looks way cooler for the price of a DIY amplifier and some HDDs out of a dumpster. It doesn't sound quite as good but who cares!" Next week we'll show you how to turn a laundry basket and a speak & spell into your own segway.

    Wasn't this already posted a few weeks ago, or am I the only one experiencing deja-vu?

      I know I've seen it before, at least once. Not absolutely sure if it was on Slashdot or not, but it's likely. I'm too lazy to do a search, though. Would be the second repost for today ... jeez.

  7. dupe (plus a suggestion) by psychosis · · Score: 1, Redundant

    This was posted back in Feb (See this link.) It even gives the same link...
    In all seriousness, would it be all too hard to include some form of archive-checking feature to the submission queue? (Note: I don't use slash, so I don't know the internals...) Something like "if this link has been posted before, raise a flag to the administrator to make sure they really want to post a duplicate"...
    Might weed out at least some of the repeats... Heck, maybe even a "link similarity" feature that could match http://foo.com as possibly identitcal to http://foo.com/index.html.

  8. Where has I seen this before... by big_pianist · · Score: 1, Redundant

    These repeating stories are almost as bad as those blasted X10 camera ads.

    It's a real crying shame I can't block the stories like I block the ads...

    This is a REPOST .. have you heard of dupe checking .. or is that not a feature of slashcode?
