I think either they were fed up with every good domain name being taken and mashed some random characters with a fist of rage, or their cat stepped on the keyboard. Either way, they compiled it in Perl and it output a classified site.
How much is this magic conductive PCB ink and printer going to cost though? If it is anything like the magnetic ink you need for printing checks, I think they just raised the entry bar a fair bit. BTW you can already print your own PCBs, you just need a regular laser printer and some acid to etch out the pattern. There are numerous guides on Google about how to do this on the cheap.
"turns video game sound into (literally) chest-pounding vibrations."
I think normal speakers already do this. Granted you have to turn them up pretty high to do much chest pounding, but I'm pretty sure all sounds are indeed vibrations.
Nah we'll just change the rules again if we get too far behind. I seem to remember the Russians beating us to space and putting living things into orbit in the 60s, so we changed the rules to putting a man on the moon.
Russia: Mozltov, comrade we've made it to Mars! The space race is won.
US: Mars? Nice but the real goal was NEPTUNE, sorry guys.
US (aside): Someone call Spielburg...
But seriously, this is what we need to inspire some innovation within our own space program. I mean, if Apple had never released OSX then we might still be stuck with Windows XP. Oh, wait...
I pay about $30 per month for cable, and the only advantage it has over Hulu is that there is more of a selection. However, it isn't really fair to call it a selection when someone else has selected it for me, and decided what time I can watch it. Also at least 1/3 of it is commercial breaks. If Hulu can improve its selection for $30 or less per month, I'll drop cable like a hot rock. If they remove the 30 second ads for paid subscribers, I'd be a fool not to.
Everyone has to get out and push! Come to think of it, that would be an even better savings of energy -- just make everyone get out and walk their fat asses to the next station.
Considering I doubt that anyone here would actually want to meet or socialize with anyone else here, I'd say no. Slashdot is more like a big tree that we all like to piss on than a social networking site.
So you would sooner surrender to a group of soldiers than a giant robot with laser beams on its forehead? Seems pretty moot to me, a threat is a threat, and when you think about is there really that much difference between a programmed robot and a brainwashed human? At least the robots wont be stacking up naked POWs and pointing at their genitals.
It is funny how true and relevant this is. Maybe the next generation of political leaders who grew up playing Civ and Starcraft will understand how to micromanage as well as the average 13 year old can now.
Hemp seed is actually one of the few food stuffs that you can live off without having to eat anything else (aside from meat of course). Not that you would want but at least it tastes better than soy.
Wouldn't this be like drinking salt water to survive? IE, you eat some, get the munchies, and are more hungry than when you started?
But Luke's X-34 speeder on Tatooine? The Yugo of speeders, man. One hard stop, and out you go.
Why does he expect a harder stop in a floating vehicle, and how would it be any different than a convertible car? This article is barely funny, and only thought-provoking in the sense that you think of the ways in which it is wrong.
This isn't a reboot, but they've recently re-released all of the King's Quest and Space Quest series games. They're available on Steam, and other places I'm sure.
This is true. I remember a long time ago I ran across a virus on a machine that specifically kept NAV.EXE (Norton AV) from executing. This was back before there were quality free AV suites available, and Symantec was actually a respectable company. It turned out that you could just rename the exe and it would run and clean the virus, but I remember being impressed by their ingenuity. I'm often impressed by malware's tenacity actually, now if only the people that write anti-malware software were as dedicated as the ones who write malware...
I just can't come to grips with the fact that people will actually order stuff like this off the net. It would be no different than taking random drugs you bought off the street corner. It just seems insane to me.
Yeah, nobody would buy drugs off a street corner... wtf

Wow, not only did you use a car analogy to flame Sony, but you also got a zinger in on Ford as well. Kudos.
I'd say those who paid 61 euro for a screw are the "special" ones.
8 1/2 x 11 works pretty well, or A3 if you have a European printer.
Somewhere at Google HQ there is a guy saying "I told you we still weren't ready to come out of beta!"
Better yet, imagine the fun of DDOS attacks featuring your buddies and a few shotguns.

Obviously you've never been to West Virginia. Do you really want a colony started with only 6 unique sets of genes?

TL;DR... Maybe if they put some dead bodies in the article I would have read the whole thing.

We'll stop using it when Microsoft stops using a 3.5" floppy disk for the "Save" icon in every program.

Making love? You don't watch much porn, do you?
[15] Forced Entry was directed by Lizzy Borden and released in 2002. Again it was the director's cut version of the film that was cited in the case.
Well, compared to her real life escapades I think the movies aren't such a big deal.
