  1. Re:Does not Compute! on A Savant Explains His Abilities · · Score: 1

    Have you ever used a slide rule? If you had a photographic memory, you could memorize a slide rule and use it to multiply numbers in your head in a way much different from the "traditional" one...

  2. Re:Get hungry and learn to love the feeling on Getting Back Into Shape While At The Office? · · Score: 1

    even better: get a recumbent bike! www.ihpva.org
    my bike:http://toxy.wurzel6-webdesign.de/english/inde x.htm
    Its a LOT more comfortable, faster and just looks cool....

  3. Re:Washing Machine on Priest Brews in Washing Machine · · Score: 1

    I am not a homebrewer, but Im from germany and washing machines here have a heating element that can change the temperature of the water in the machine. Recipies on his page are for both lager and ale (phraseology is a lot different in german, but he talks about both top and bottom fermented beer.)

  4. Re:Doomlight shadow on Doom Archive Reopened · · Score: 1

    I think there were more games with this kind of atmosphere. First Doom2 of course, Quake, but especially Alien vs. Predator (the original first part). I played that for hours, and the lack of a save feature meant that every death really hurt, especially because the levels became longer AND more difficult.

  5. Re:A hundred pounds of silly puddy on Dan Looks at Office Toys · · Score: 1, Funny

    You could fill a pool with it and charge people to jump in. When they first touch it, the stuff appears to be soft and wobbly, but after a 20ft fall its hard as concrete. You dont even have to dispose of the dead bodies, because they just slowly get sucked into the stuff ;-)

  6. Re:Compact Flash on Death to the 3.5" Floppy? · · Score: 0

    Iuse CF for my data transportation needs as well,
    but I put my 3.5" floppy drive on my mouse cable to keep the weight of the cable from pulling my mouse off my mousepad. Also, the reduced force on my mouse gives me the decisive edge in CS.

  7. Re:Imperial vs. Metric: SERIOUSLY OFFTOPIC! on Biking @ 80 MPH · · Score: 0

    1 NM is 1/60 of 1 degree latitude.

  8. Jabba The Hutt on Grafitti Causes Paralysis? · · Score: 0

    Did anyone read the page source? They have Jabba The Hutt and Jabberwocky as keywords :-)

  9. _sixt_ wall is a good idea. on Water Cooling a CPU · · Score: 1

    I think using the CPU as on wall for the cooler
    is a pretty good idea. The problem with heatsinks
    is that they tend to fall off unnoticed. (except mine, which I glued on with SuperGlue...)
    Your CPU is outdated long before the metal plate corrodes enough to become a problem. Besides, you could paint it with some heat-conducting stuff...

  10. Linux Furby? on Tiny Linux Boxen · · Score: 1

    Ok, take one of these, put them inside one
    of those toy penguins, and ou end up with
    a linux powered furby :-)
