  1. Henry David Thoreau said... on MyLifeBits to Store Every Moment of Your Life · · Score: 1
    "My life has been the poem I would have writ, but I could not both live and utter it"

    Guess not anymore! Now how long until we are able to back up our brains into hard drives?

  2. Re:One word on Why Don't We Invent That Tomorrow? · · Score: 1
    Don't forget the ability to have celebrity personalities downloaded into the hardware. A Lucy Liu bot wouldn't be bad : D

    Of course, we'll need a way to reproduce asexually (or proper robot-human interaction education), because soon the world would start depopulating from people only mating with robots.

  3. It's true! on Microsoft's "Source Fource" Action Figures · · Score: 1
    Windows Vista Sensei travels from place to place in a quest to help the underprivileged global citizens.

    I believe that means he goes on giving them outsourced jobs to help with their nation's development, suing the evil teachers who can't afford more than 1 software license for the 25 school PCs donated by some guy in the US, and uses his ultimate weapon against poverty: the Badly Crippled Windows Version for only $59.99! The mess he often leaves behind is best cleaned up by the Ubuntu Avenger.

  4. Re:Interesting on Scientists Examine Dinosaur Skin · · Score: 5, Informative

    Reading the 'Origin of Species' gives great insight into those ideas. It's gives pretty interesting explanations (though a bit outdated) on why some species seem to revert to old forms (such as why whales look like fish), and why some useful features stay the same through the ages seemingly unchanged. Go on, get it and take it one idea at a time. It's available to everyone as a free audiobook or free text

  5. Re:Robots are fine... on The Future of Love and Sex - Robots · · Score: 1

    I still think chobits are the best all time robot partners. I wonder how much they'll cost.

  6. Will they abide by GPL? on MPAA College Toolkit Raises Privacy, Security Concerns · · Score: 2, Interesting

    Will they distribute the source code with it? Will they allow people to freely copy and modify that toolkit? I say, download it, get the tech department to modify it to their liking, and install it! That's what the open source spirit is all about, fixing broken software. I suggest they get fixing that privacy issue first...

  7. Sue 'em like it's 1999! on The Pirate Bay Facing "Old Fashioned" Pressure · · Score: 1

    I think he's trying to revive 1999, when the whole file sharing vs. MAFIAA thing started evolving into lawsuits. Ah! The good old days!

  8. Re:oblig on Robots Assimilate Into Cockroach Society · · Score: 1

    With such low capacity they must have, you'll need a beowulf cluster of those.

  9. Where do I download it!?!?!?!? on High-Res Scan of Mona Lisa Reveals Its History · · Score: 1

    That was my first thought. I've been scanning stuff at high resolution and downloading high res pictures for a while to carefully look at them, and this is like a dream come true. Now if they make it available to the public, I can die a happy man.

  10. Lolcats on The Evolution of Language · · Score: 2, Interesting
    I hope it evolves to something like this:

    im in ur internetz, evolving ur languages

  11. Re:missile silos on Data Centers in Strange Places · · Score: 2, Informative
    God forbid they use an abandon missile silo! Let them use an abandoned missile silo instead!

  12. Re:Powertune processor on Self-Tuning Electric Guitar · · Score: 1

    Imagine a Beowulf cluster of those! (musicians call Beowulf clusters of instruments "bands", I heard...)

  13. Re:wow on Slashdot Turns 10 But You Get The Presents · · Score: 1

    I feel like have seen the face of God!!!!

  14. Re:Science is a homosexual plot on Impassable Northwest Passage Open For First Time In History · · Score: 1
    If Global Warming were caused by man God would have given us gills.

    Glad to see people are finally realizing that gilled people shall inherit the Earth soon. And to them, an underwater world is an advantage. People with lungs suck, anyway.

  15. OMG PONIES!!!!1!!!1! on Pink, Blue, and Bad Science · · Score: 0, Offtopic

    Shouldn't this article be tagged omgponies?

  16. Self Employed... on Don't Let Your Boss Catch You Reading This · · Score: 2, Interesting

    I do spend most time I should be working "researching" interesting information (the eating habits of horseshoe crabs, super Mario bros. villains, Cambodian cuisine, etc.) and I have no problem getting work done. I used to feel guilty about it, but by now I realize it's part of work, so I work, slack off, work some more, slack off twice as much time as I worked, and repeat. There's too much to "learn", and 8 hours a day work get too much in the way of it. I say find a way to make a living that doesn't take up too much time, and enjoy the rest of your life.

  17. Worshipping Lord Cthulhu pays off... on Legal Music Streaming Site Launches In France · · Score: 1
    Just when I turn to a Cthulhu cult for all my spiritual needs, I find http://www.jamendo.com/ and now this! On the same day!

    Phnglui Mglwnafh Cthulhu R'lyeh Wgah Nagl F'htagn!

  18. Re:I'm shocked! on Spanish TV Channels Vandalize Wikipedia · · Score: 5, Funny

    That's no Slashdot! It has no CowboyNeal option on its polls!

  19. Re:Only delaying the inevitable on New Chip-cooling Technology · · Score: 1

    I can only imagine: "I'm not fat, I'm a power house! Now fetch me another King Sized Whopper, I need it for light bulbs."

  20. Re:Ozone production FTW on New Chip-cooling Technology · · Score: 3, Funny

    If we dig down some, the ground level ozone we're making will be above us, therefore, making a new, lower ozone layer. Time to move underground, my fellow human beings!

  21. The world is not fair... on Forbes Offers a Sympathetic Portrayal of Hackers · · Score: 4, Insightful

    Why didn't the more interesting story about the evil undercover reporter who got pwned made it to the mainstream media? There's no justice in this world for hackers... Won't somebody think of the hackers? ;_;

  22. Re:But on Canadian Theatre Chain Sued for Abusive Search · · Score: 1

    An intentional typo meant for the reader to stop and think about what is written.

  23. Re:But on Canadian Theatre Chain Sued for Abusive Search · · Score: 1

    But in order for beautiful castles to exist, there has to be slave-labor and famine among the peasants, to that the royalty may thrive. (That's the most freaking poetical thing I've said in a long time!!!)

  24. Do I get any rewards for my honesty? on Our ATM Is Broken, Go To Jail · · Score: 1
    A while ago when buying a video game, they gave me $10 extra in change. So I returned it, and as an unexpected reward they gave me a game accessory worth $10 free(It didn't cost them as much as the $10 they'd have lost...).

    Now if I go to the bank to return a $20 (meaning I get in line maybe for hours, and risk getting laughed at for my stupid honesty) will I get anything other than not getting arrested? What motivation will anyone have to return seemingly insignificant amounts of cash? A cookie at least? ;_;

  25. The Dark Empire is falling! on Microsoft Seeks Open Source Certification · · Score: 1

    Even the greatest Lord of Sith ever to exist redeemed himself as he was about to die. Maybe Microsoft is feeling its life energy leave its body and decided to go down a hero instead of a villain.
