  1. A Lebanese guy made his own gunshot detector on Audio Surveillance, Intended to Detect Gunshots, Can Pick Up Much More · · Score: 1

    These systems could be rather simple. Here is a guy who have made his own.

    He states "Ohh gunshots, we love them actually in Lebanon :P gun shots on special occasions, gun shots when families fight, gun shots for civil strife. BIG gunshots when israel tries to f*ck with Hizbollah. Every one in Lebanon has a gun of some sort, or an RPG launcher. Oh well, the empty bullet casing should be our national symbol :P"

  2. Re:Cheap theater on New IMF Head Says US Must Raise Debt Limit, or Face 'Nasty Consequences' · · Score: 1

    It's clear what's going to happen. We'll raise the ceiling into the indefinite future and we'll continue to spend more and more into the indefinite future, until our deficit becomes so large that it topples over and the whole country is done. There will be a breaking point, eventually. We have to get control of this bullshit, sooner rather than later. But... we won't. And so we'll get what we deserve.

    Or you will start a war to rob some other country its wealth. Soon or later it will look like the easiest soloution to you.

  3. Re:I don't get it. . . on World's Largest Amateur Rocket Prepares For Second Attempt · · Score: 1

    3 facts:

    Well, they have almost no money, everything is hand build by them self, almost.

    Denmark is pretty small, we don't have a Nevada desert where we can play with our toys.

    Having build a submarine, you know how to build a sea vessel, a floating launch pad is "just" an other level of fun added on top the whole project.

    And I think the "Its Danish Engeneering" is a goal goal too.

  4. Do we really need it? on Linux-Friendly Alternatives To Skype · · Score: 1

  7. Re:"commercial UNIX" on IBM About To Buy Sun For $7 Billion · · Score: 1

    Well partly true; it has lost most of the characteristics UNIX people identify as Unix, but it has gained the same identity among the non-UNIX people.
    We talk about posix and stuff like that. They talk about config files and vi

  8. Re:Dear slashdot on Slashdot Launches User Achievements · · Score: 1

    But its a quite fun one anyway. Think about it, achievement whoring is what life is all about anyway.

  9. Re:159357 popular with lefties? on Passwords From PHPBB Attack Analyzed · · Score: 1

  13. Re:Sure thing Einstein on Forget Math to Become a Great Computer Scientist? · · Score: 1

    Well, I will prefere NOT to review his code.

    It's way easier to review well structured code.

  17. Re:Anti-Spam Legislation Is Only Effective Solutio on Spammers' Upend DNS · · Score: 1

  22. Seen it done... on Gameboy on your PalmPilot? · · Score: 2

    Someone at my company made a Gameboy emulator for the Pilot almost as soon as the PalmPilot Professional came out. It worked pretty well, too, but unfortuantely the refresh requirements were high enough that it would drain your battery in a matter of minutes. I don't know if the new screen on the Palm V has lower power requirements, but if it doesn't then I predict that Gameboy emulation isn't really feasible...
