Philip's SFFO 3cm 4Gig Optical Discs

Posted by CmdrTaco on from the can-i-use-it-in-vending-machines dept.

JL writes "New Scientist reports that Philips has a demonstration in Japan recently of a 3cm rewritable optical disc that can store four gigabytes. The drive is small too!" Interesting that they note that 4 gigs can store 5 2 hour movies on the thing :)

      How long before a manufacturer of contraceptives buys the rights to all of the first posts and troll posts on Slashdot, to use in a commercial?

      "Our product could have prevented all of this bandwidth wastage!"

      Slashdot - you could earn yourselves a fortune!

    WOW! First post... I suppose Slashdot could send you a box of Scooby Snacks for being such a socially redeeming member of this community.

    Same comments about storing dirty pics, same jokes about losing it down the side of the sofa/crack of your arse. Check the link to the Philips site - it seems this news is months old.

      Yes, but the comments will be spelt different. By the sound of it, they are putting 5 porn movies on it, not pics.

      Why would you loose it down the crack of your arse, is it really that big?

      Some guy here apparently has a habit of rolling naked on his money

      Thats why your mom always told you to wash your hands after handling money.

    What the hell? I thought profiling criminals was discredited. Whuy the hell is it OK to profile and pull over White vans?? and not black vans. This is racial profiling at its worst

  5. Ask Slashdot: when porn is not good enough by Anonymous Coward · · Score: -1, Offtopic
    I really wish someone would use that "mom, dad and dick" line when receiving the Nobel price or Academy awards...

    Anyway, my question is: what should I do when porn, masturbation and occasional casual sex (when I get lucky) is just not enough? For me, ordinary sex has become so mind blowingly boring that it's almost not worth it anymore.

    I'd like to know about exciting masturbation techniques and best ways of getting into S&M, role playing (I find nuns, female teachers and other female authority figures exciting) and three- or foursomes possibly experimenting with sex with another man.

      You wouldn't be Catholic by any chance?

      If you are, I'm sure you'll find little boys highly stimulating.

    How many Libraries of Congress is that, anyway?

    It's hard to tell, because Mr. Ashcroft will be banning books (sexual themes, witchcraft/occult, history of the middle east and other unamerican publications) soon, thus effectively reducing the size of the library.

    Of course most problems with philip's screws or screwdrivers come from :
    a) worn screws
    b) using the wrong size screwdriver
    c) using philip's screwdrivers on pozidrive screws.
