  1. Re:DMCA broken on Air Force Supercomputer Made From PS3's · · Score: 1

    It isn't illegal if we do it.

  2. Re:I can hardly wait for it to come out on DVD on Futurama Renewed For 7th Season · · Score: 2

    I would advise against finishing Lost. Unless, you are 100% about the characters and their interactions and don't care about why

  3. Re:App ecosystem! on Firefox 4, A Day Later · · Score: 1

    Do you really think that would stop them from suing?

    There is no whoosh in a vacuum

  5. Re:Cancelling program a good decision? on NASA's Orion Moon Craft Unveiled · · Score: 2

    It's how every gov project has worked for the last 60+ years.

  6. Re:The Best Solution Ironically is Nuclear Rockets on NASA Wants Revolutionary Radiation Shielding Tech · · Score: 2

    To be fair Pluto's reactor core was directly exposed to the air.

  7. Random thought from an ignorant person on NASA Wants Revolutionary Radiation Shielding Tech · · Score: 1, Insightful

    This is just a random thought that I had, and I'll admit I know jack about physics. But from my understanding high energy electromagnetic radiation needs to be block by rather dense things because it increase the chance that the electromagnetic wave will collide with the atoms and be absorbed instead of pass through it.

    What if there was a superconductor that was saturated with electrons, would that be effective at blocking electromagnetic radiation? I'm asking at more of a theoretical level, and I am ignoring all of the engineering problems.

    Be nice, I haven't taken physics since high-school.

  8. Re:Physicists on Was the Early Universe 2 Dimensional Spacetime? · · Score: 1

    True, but scientists at one point mathematically proved that the Earth was the center of the universe, based on all available data.

  9. Re:Truth copies fiction on US Military Deploys Personal Gunshot Detectors · · Score: 2

    Amusingly enough, in the game STALKER it was tracking everyone's PDA

  10. Re:I'll save you from reading TFA on Legacy From the 1800s Leaves Tokyo In the Dark · · Score: 1, Informative

    It is still spelled Giga, just pronounced jigga

    DIAF

  12. Re:Lets face it on Potentially Great Sci-fi Films Still Due In 2011 · · Score: 1

    True, it wasn't exactly subtle but the one thing that they did that I really appreciated is they made the Prawns easy to dislike. I know I wouldn't want those things anywhere near me, but at the same time I know they are getting screwed over.

  13. Re:Recommendation: Buy Up Rights to Make New Class on Netflix To Start Creating Original Content · · Score: 1

    Agreed I'm surprised it took a whole 3 minutes.

  14. Re:Not anytime soon on Ask Slashdot: Data-Only Phone, Voice Over WiFi? · · Score: 2

    Maybe it is because I live in Indiana and there aren't as many people using data, but I jailbroke my phone and got an addon called VOIPover3G and used Skype all the time, worked just fine.

  15. Re:Was privacy ever a right? on Ask Slashdot: Privacy Paranoia · · Score: 1

    So ... the best way to hide from the FBI is to not give them a reason to want to find you?

  16. Re:Best strategy on Can You Beat a Computer At Rock-Paper-Scissors? · · Score: 1

    Make sure they are casino dice, most common dice aren't "perfect"

  17. Re:XKCD on A Letter On Behalf of the World's PC Fixers · · Score: 1

    Yea, but I enjoy linking to a random XKCD and getting modded up for it. I've found that everyone with mod points assumes I'm linking to the one they are thinking about.

  18. XKCD on A Letter On Behalf of the World's PC Fixers · · Score: 2, Funny
  19. Re:Peace is a lie on Cold Warriors Question Nukes · · Score: 1

    Bravo

  20. Re:ok MIPS / ARM / PowerPC ? on Microsoft Recruiting For Next-Gen Console Development · · Score: 1

    I don't think Xbox 3 emulation will be a problem. There isn't even an Xbox1 emulator and that thing ran off of an x86 CPU

  21. Re:It's "havoc" you moron on $30 GPS Jammer Can Wreak Havok · · Score: 1

    Havok is a semi acceptable spelling of the word. It is the source of the word Havoc.

    That or the editor plays too many video games.

  22. Re:Efficiency on The Car Faster Than a Speeding Bullet · · Score: 1

    I seem to remember reading that nonnuclear aircraft carriers get something like 6in to the gallon.
