    Indeed, here are some ways to really help immortalize TPB:

  3. First post on Early Pirate Bay Server Immortalized In Museum · · Score: 5, Funny

    Before FBI raids the museum and seizes the server.

  4. Re:Innovation on Timothy Lord Discovers the Good Night Lamp at CES (Video) · · Score: 1

    Innovation in consumer electronics died the moment the Average Joe decided they only wanted a toy handheld computer and not the real thing, somewhere in the mid-2000s. That's when technology just got too hard for the average consumer, and instead of harnessing the potential of a handheld computer, the tech industry gave them a tarted-up big-screen version of their old Motorola and began to produce these silly art-school-project doodads to tickle their sense of whimsy.

  5. Re:Data transfer kits on Crucial M500 SSD Promises 960GB For $600 · · Score: 1

    I'm not worried about the actual data copying, I'd probably use Robocopy for that, I'm wondering how I'd change from a single-disk filesystem to one where certain apps are on a different disk. How can I delete the original directories and "mount" the ones on another disk while the computer's not running?

  6. Re:A descriptive summary would be nice on Timothy Lord Discovers the Good Night Lamp at CES (Video) · · Score: 1

    I swear the people making this are mocking consumers. There was a joke about an Internet-enabled remote-controlled lamp on The Big Bang Theory.

  7. Re:Dear Muggles, on Timothy Lord Discovers the Good Night Lamp at CES (Video) · · Score: 1

    If you bring anything from the Harry Potter universe into real life the creativity differential will cause a black hole to open up.

    Three words: Browsing While Intoxicated.

  9. Re:ZOMFG! on Timothy Lord Discovers the Good Night Lamp at CES (Video) · · Score: 1

    WELCOME to today's consumer electronics! Bask in our amazing locked-in toy computers and comically useless doodads!

    Seriously if we brought a person from just 10 years ago to this year's CES with a time machine, they'd insist they were being pranked.

    You just have different taste, some men would greatly enjoy the Simu-Cankle!

  11. Re:now they can concentrate on ignoring mentally i on Connecticut Groups Cancels Plan to Destroy Violent Games · · Score: 1

    Well, their latest statements about violent video games and watchlists for the mentally ill cover censorship and "precrime."

  12. Re:Still a ways to go on Crucial M500 SSD Promises 960GB For $600 · · Score: 1

    I've been thinking about it...I wonder how I could transfer an existing Win7 install like that, in Linux it would just be a few lines in fstab...

  13. Re:I dunno... on Ask Slashdot: Are Timed Coding Tests Valuable? · · Score: 1

    True, you don't know if you're going to be praised for your practical knowledge of the easiest way to solve the problem or seen as a lazy smartass trying to dodge the question, I would have been the person who intentionally did it the harder way, hoping to impress some stuffy HR drone, and lost at that interview.

    Wow I just did that in my head in the time it took to read that.

    Which companies would think I'm a programming god for being able to do this?

  15. Re:Can someone remind me why this is sinister? on Texas State Rep. Files 2 Bills To Ban RFID In Schools · · Score: 1

    These kids are already on Facebook, anything you could do to make them less averse to privacy invasion would get you labelled a sex offender.

  16. Still a ways to go on Crucial M500 SSD Promises 960GB For $600 · · Score: 3, Interesting

    That's about 6x the cost of a hard drive, in terms of dollars per GB. If it was 2x or maybe even 4x I'd replace the RAID0 array in my gaming machine with one of these.

    Fallen for one of the NRA's diversion tactics huh? At least the "blame them vi'lent vidjergames" thing didn't unfairly demonize a whole swath of the population.

  20. Modern-day book-burning averted on Connecticut Groups Cancels Plan to Destroy Violent Games · · Score: 4, Insightful

    Maybe there's some hope for us after all.

  21. Skeumorphism on crack on Canadian Researchers Debut PaperTab, the Paper-Thin Tablet · · Score: 1

    No, this is just incredibly idiotic. Have one device that does many things. A stack of paper is an awful, inconvenient form and if the computer has a Core i5 and any decent amount of RAM, there's no need to limit it to one application.

  22. Re:Nice! on Annual "Worst CEO" List Released · · Score: 3, Interesting

    I could crash two Bugatti Veyrons a week and be as successful as Groupon at their peak.

  23. Re:What about Steve Jobs on Annual "Worst CEO" List Released · · Score: 1

    Didn't he have a hacker mentality?

    Hahahahaha...no, he had an artist mentality, that what he did was special, and the specialness of that work should be maintained through curation, and copying any aspect of anyone else's work was the wrongest thing in the universe - unless he was the one doing it.

  24. Re:Missing names on Annual "Worst CEO" List Released · · Score: 1

    I see his "hoodie mentality" as his only positive trait.

    Came here to say this, Elop's dodged the overall worst CEOs list two years in a row now, and Ballmer certainly deserved at least a mention this year.
