The Black Holes were created by the Large Hadron Collider during the short time that it was online, before the radioactive liquid helium leaked out and freeze-burned its way down toward the center of the earth (China Syndrome), where it was reflected back up and surfaced in a pig patch in Mexico, and irradiated sick pigs with Swine Flu, which mutated into the Mexico Flu, and hopped a ride on some poor little kid, who passed it on to Mexico city.
And in "The Godfather," they called it "a piece of the action."
My, how mobile manufacturers and service providers tend to adopt the behavior of TV gangsters!
Isn't that cute? I personally don't like to idea of hardware manufacturers and service providers getting too cosy with each other. It's too much of an opportunity for them to take the subscribers "for a ride."
Want to marry a cool Apple iPhone? Meet the ugly cousin, that comes along with the pre-nuptials deal, AT&T.
They had to make some tough investment decisions: Either buy Sun, or build a Jeopardy playing supercomputer, but not both.
I'm sure that the machine's performance in Final Jeopardy will awe us sufficiently, and IBM's management will be exonerated from walking away from Sun.
IBM: "Hey, Larry Ellison! Have fun in your toy sailboat! Call us when your database and hardware synergies can compete with us in pre-prime time light entertainment game shows!"
Rumor has it that HP is working on a massively parallel Intel supercomputer that can calculate the strategic advantage of bidding one dollar ($1) on "The Price is Right."
I have a cousin who is addicted to his CrackBerry. His wife gave him an ultimatum: "Either you take THAT or ME on our next vacation. Not both."
As an aside, TFA says that the NSA is reviewing the security software. I wonder if they got access to the rest of the source-code and reviewed all of the other software?
I wonder if the NSA has the opportunity to build in back doors, so that they can snoop on the President's communication?
That will be the first one on the list. Because it reveals that evil Nazi scientists escaped to South America after WWII, and obtained Hitler's DNA from the Russians, and have been mixing it with cat DNA to create Kitlers, which have been shipped around the world, to lead the "The Litter Box Putsch" in your area.
When your cat goosesteps into your living room in jackboots, you'll know the day has arrived.
For me, when I am really seriously coding, I could just about be anywhere; nothing would disturb me. As a matter of fact, a couple a weeks ago a colleague grabbed me on the shoulder at work, while I was hacking away, and said, "We have to get out of here. There's a fire alarm. Didn't you hear the alarm?"
-40C-+85C costs more than 0C-50C, but it costs less than -70C-+120C.
Um, forget about the computer, but at +120C, isn't the user of the computer going to have a bit of a problem? Or does Dell also sell "Rugged Users" along with its "Rugged Laptops? http://www.dell.com/xfr"
"Thank you for ordering a Dell Rugged Laptop, would you also like to order a Dell 'Hard Guy' Rugged User along with that? Ballistic Armor for the laptop, user or both?"

"was an English scientist and former MI5 counterintelligence officer." He stuck a weed up the British Government's ass by writing a book about his experiences: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Spycatcher. British Intelligence officers are supposed to keep their mouth shut in retirement. It's a very interesting read, especially when he describes how those hollow microwave bug thingies function.
. . . a search for a female serial killer, whose victims were in Austria, France and Germany, was ended recently, when police discovered that the DNA of the suspect belonged to a women who packaged the cotton swabs used for testing:
It's a hoot and a half to read all the different crimes associated with this case, and think how all those police profilers were totally baffled by this killer.
It won't be too funny, if a lab mix-up incriminates you.
It would be ironic, if this thing performed better than North Korea's "communications" rocket. Of course, then North Korean agents would start scrounging the US for model rocket engines, for their next attempt:
Slashdot Mirror
I was skeptical about this this periodical since their "Bestiality" issue, which had the title headline: "Give a dog a bone."
Bones? Joints?
Oh, never mind, make up your own jokes.
How can they be tried in Italy? .
Tried? Wrong verb. It's called a "shakedown."

Seems all pretty plausible to me.
A "taste?"

Maybe some Bolivian wise guy will invent a car that runs on cocaine?
I used to think that the Eveready Energizer Bunny kept on running, because it was powered by lithium.
Maybe it's powered by powder?
Mormon Crickets are also not only not Mormons, they're not crickets either. They're shieldbacked katydids.
"... shieldbacked katydids?" Please do not use these abstruse metric or imperial system units. What are they in Texan talk: Varmints or Critters?
They're also cannibals.
Great house pets. No need to buy pet food, they just "feed themselves."
And polygamists.
Well, that sounds interestings. Send some over. I hope they will be more entertaining than the Presbyterian Toads.
And this causes hundreds of people to flee for their lives by making a mad dash out of their building?
No, it gives a bunch of folks the excuse to drop their work, run outside, have a cigarette, grab a hot dog, a beer, another hot dog, more beer . . .
How do you kill that which has no life?
Well, it always seemed to work for Buffy and her pals.
And in the case of this miserable "invention," I guess a "stake through the server" might work.
If not, try the "stake through the heart" pattern, with the owner of the "virtual cemetery."

Anything that creates an addiction is bound to be profitable.
. . . that Slashdot is profitable?!?!?!?!?
The next time someone posts one of those "1), 2), 3) Profit!" comments, maybe I should pay attention.
we allowed radical experiments to be performed by gigantic, non-redundant entities.
The Japanese call it "Hentai."

56 bit encryption, indeed.
Do you think the pirates doing the pirating have anything worth taking?
Pirate organs for sale! Eyes, livers, hearts . . . you want it, we'll harvest it!

. . . it's a lifestyle choice.
. . . no one has been able to survive it yet.

Um, no, and I wasn't wearing any headgear.
Getting rid of some inconvenient wiretap can't be far harder.
Might as well get rid of the wiretapper, while they're at it.
And the person who was tapped, too.
Problem solved.

It won't be too funny, if a lab mix-up incriminates you.
Steve Eves will enter the history books as the person who flew the largest model rocket in history.
. . . or . . .
He could very easily become the person who exploded the largest model rocket before it left the launch pad.
Sounds like a win/win to me . . . how does he lose?
It would be ironic, if this thing performed better than North Korea's "communications" rocket. Of course, then North Korean agents would start scrounging the US for model rocket engines, for their next attempt:
