  1. Re:I'm impressed on Google is launched! · · Score: 1

    I, too was unimpressed with the 'new' AltaVista, but thankfully they kept the text-only interface. It doesn't get much leaner than that!

  2. Re:Phone number...? on Premiere Episode of Slashdot Radio:Geeks in Space · · Score: 1

    um, Dutch? it's Holland, Michigan. (unless there's a joke I'm missing)

  3. Re:"Fight the good fight!" (off-topic) on Microsoft starts anti-Linux Group · · Score: 1

    uh, wasn't that Triumph?

  4. Crackpot Science on "Invisible" Speakers · · Score: 1

    There are so many reasons why this is a bad idea. Most people I know live in rooms with parallel walls, so the resulting standing wave (depending on the resonant frequency of the room) would probably be even worse than with traditional speakers, not to mention aging plaster or sheetrock crumbling. Also, most people like to hang stuff on their walls, and I would imagine those little adhesive picture hangers or tiny nails many use would be woefully inadequate when the needle drops on that new Spice Girls re-mix. And then there's neighbors, if you have any, although I would have liked to use them in retaliation against the country music-loving "look, it goes to eleven!" sisters who lived upstairs & drove me nuts for months. Did I mention they will almost certainly sound like garbage?

    I can think of at least one album that would sound good though, and it's by Pink Floyd... (ducking)

  5. Cut through the propaganda, it's a civil war. on Fighting the Techno-War · · Score: 1

    Indeed, there are many faces to propaganda/facts. See here for a different perspective.

  6. cookies on Cold Fusion with Nanotech? · · Score: 1

    HEY!! my GPA wasn't THAT bad... This is fun - yow!
