    Does anyone one know the lifespan of these disks and the readers.

  2. Re:We need a new class of 'ultralight' cars on Volkswagen Concept Car Averages 262 MPG · · Score: 1

    You have just described the British Car company, Ariel http://www.arielatom.com/ check out YouTube of Top Gear review on this, funny as hell!

'assisting communication to the public' You going to take action against them?

  4. Lotus sucks on Goodbye, Lotus 1-2-3 · · Score: 1

    Lotus sucks, even if they were to make it Open Source who would want to touch this! I don't say that about many applications but this Lotus, OMG how I hated it. I feel the pain out there for the Lotus Notes users.

  5. Invest on Bill Gates Regains the Position of World's Richest Person · · Score: 1

    I do hope that he can invest a lot into helping the planet (renewable power) planting new forests, investing in new cleaner transportation. He alone with that money CAN change the world.

  6. Re:I think I can spot the problem... on Space Coffee, Just the Way You Like It · · Score: 1

    Hey don't Bring us Brits into the mix. Fight your own war.

  7. System Security on Security Firm Mandiant Says China's Army Runs Hacking Group APT1 · · Score: 1

    I think this should be a wakeup call for companies to allocate finance to IT security. It’s hard to go to the board and explain that you need xx£$ for beefing up security if you have not been a target of a hack attempt/virus etc..

  8. Thats what the internet is for, no? on Heavy Internet Use Linked To Depression · · Score: 0

    more time browsing sexually gratifying websites, online gaming sites and online communities. What else is on the internet apart from Slashdot?

    Rings don't plug holes.

    But geeks do!

  10. Re:You're still on Notes 4.6, aren't you? on Campaign to Open Source IBM's Notes/Domino · · Score: 0
    Holy crap I'm on 4.6 and when we have problems its like dooms day! God damn the crap GUI and its sucky DB and complexity! If you think 4.6 is the best then there is no WAY we will be upgrading to any new version. Exchange here we come!

    USER.ID EXPIRED!

  11. This will help HUMANS on Octopuses Have No Personalities and Enjoy HDTV · · Score: 1, Flamebait

    David Lightman: Yeah. Weird isn't it? Love to. How about Global Thermonuclear War.
    Dr Watson: Wouldn't you prefer a nice game of chess?
    David Lightman: Later. Right now lets play Global Thermonuclear War.

  13. We need more info on Rewriting a Software Product After Quitting a Job? · · Score: 1

    Also, you/the author doesn't mention what country they are in as laws are different. Also if you register a new company in another country and then pay some chump (Best to find a drunk on the street and get him to sign the company documentation, Its harder for the law to trace him as he is homeless but does exist) to be on the board as CEO. (This will probably cost you a few cans of Special Brew and some smokes)you can evade any legal problems as its country specific law/patent etc. This is all theory, apparently!

  14. The web got it on Spider Missing After Trip To Space Station · · Score: 1

    On the way past earth, one spider was caught by the WEB. Error 401 ?

  15. Re:Lord have mercy! on Quantum Cloaking Makes Molecules Invisible · · Score: 1
    "I'm half afghani, half luxemburgish"

    Ok I'm fine understanding the 50% Afghani. But its the luxemburg(ish) bti I'm not sure about.

    Are you not sure about the Luxemburg, so just though luxemburgish? (Well around that area)

  16. Re:Ears.. on Quantum Cloaking Makes Molecules Invisible · · Score: 0, Troll
    F*** Slashdot, i'm going to Digg. At least Diggers are openly idiots and not pontificating armchair pseudo-intellectuals.

    Well I think you may be thinking the right way '..i'm going to Digg.... Diggers are openly idiots' but, even so, I'm sure that they may not want you.

    Even idiots have some intelligence. So you are only 50% there, the idiot.

  17. The White Cliffs of Dover on Man Attempts To Cross English Channel With Jet Wing · · Score: 1

    35-kilometer flight from Calais in France to Dover in England. I hope he looked up Dova on Wikipedia. The White Cliffs of Dover may turn out to be a buffer If not. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/White_cliffs_of_Dover

  18. Re:Missing: R Tape loading error on The Thirteen Greatest Error Messages of All Time · · Score: 1

    Agh yes after waiting 20 mins of loading only to have the volume set wrong and fail at the last moment.

  19. Error in Unknown on The Thirteen Greatest Error Messages of All Time · · Score: 1

    "An error has occurred in unknown" So how does it know about the unknown yet alone the status!

  20. Re:Android blows (1p!) on Google Unveils First Android Phone · · Score: 2, Informative

    Symbian has a hard application framework to follow, the Google API/Framework is much nicer and so in that respect Android is good as anyone who can code can follow without to many problems.

  21. Re:Apple fanbois on Google Unveils First Android Phone · · Score: -1, Troll

    I think that the 'closed' framework is so that Apple can test the applications integrity. No checks can mean Virsus's can be systematicly applied with no one except the virus writer held to account. In that respect I can see why Apple are very carefull.

  22. Re:Space Elevator Music on Japanese Begin Working On Space Elevator · · Score: 1

    Just the 2 of you in there, The problem? 1 of you farts and you both know who did it. Just 14 Hours to get fresh air.

    I finks it was an experiment like 'event horizon'

  24. Re:overtaken by new technologies on High Cost of Converting UK To High-Speed Broadband · · Score: 1

    This is true, its called Dark Fibre and ISP's often lease out this unused fiber to other smaller ISP's. The problem is down to finance. Who is running this project, the government. The dark fiber is owned bu ISP's. If they hand over to the government the loose the investment (Even if its not used at the moment).
