  1. Now I can play Donkey Kong! on Multi-head Meets the Laptop · · Score: 1

    Nuff said. A $4000 Game and Watch.

  2. Not being mechanically minded... on Building a Digicam from Scanner Elements · · Score: 1

    I thought the best thing about these new fangled scanners was that you could only do black and white face plants with a photocopier - now you can do it in colour at 1200dpi!

  3. If only we had Tesla coils too... on IBM Developing Lego-like Storage Brick · · Score: 1

    I could buy a hard drive that communicates wirelessly with my computer, and which is powered by the Tesla coil. I could just put it on a shelf near my computer and leave it in it's box.

    That would be cool.

  4. We could do this in Australia... on Taxing Sci-Fi Products to Fund NASA? · · Score: 1

    A school in Victoria is having it's funding cut from a project to send spiders into space (I'm feeling lazy, so use google and search for "site:.au victoria school spider space -porn -goatsex" ) We could put a 1% tax on fly-spray and the people who hate spiders can fire some into space.

    I'll be happy to pay.

  5. Camera behind the screen... on Web-Surfing Indian Slum Kids Ask: "What's a Computer" · · Score: 0, Redundant
  6. Good solution for T(H)GSB on Instant Messenger or Instant Advertiser? · · Score: 2, Funny

    Just unleash a thousand Active Buddies.
    Who would know the difference?

    After one thousand iterations of talking
    to each other, they settle on jumping up
    and down about each other's comments and
    trying to get first post.

  7. Re:Funny.... on Abit's New Motherboard Lays On The Ports · · Score: 1

    Why is that funny? It's true :)
    Wanna feel powerless?
    Get out-geeked by your parents.

  8. Re:Just in case the site gets /.ed on Abit's New Motherboard Lays On The Ports · · Score: 1

    Does mfr mean "muthaf*ka?" That would be cool.

  9. Re:Funny.... on Abit's New Motherboard Lays On The Ports · · Score: 2, Funny

    What do you mean, "it lacks DMA support?" My Dad uses DMA to get his assembly language microphone drivers to work better with USB.

  10. Obligatory MC Hawking Link on High Table at Cambridge with Stephen Hawking · · Score: 1
    http://www.mchawking.com/

    Pity about the pop-ups, overs, unders, and throughs, though.

  11. Re:Waves of light on Time Travel · · Score: 1

    It's not about passing genes. It is about poo. Poo developed a human shell to ensure it's survival and propagation.

  12. Finally Scientists and Creationists can STFU! on Time Travel · · Score: 1

    Mallett's assistant Adam, is doing his girl Eve in the workshop, and BOOM!

    Case closed. Thanks for coming.

  13. Re:Not all things are the same. on Living on Internet Time... Like Thomas Edison Did · · Score: 1

    Professors don't work like dogs. They get their PHD students to do that for them!

  14. What About PYST? on Sci-Fiction Channel To Do Myst Miniseries · · Score: 1

    I saw it in the drawer of a software reviewer
    I used to work with.

    And yes, it is a pystake of the original MYST
    game. It involved taking scenes from the first
    game and painting over the top of them.

  15. Re:This technology is swell on Pitch Perfect Karaoke · · Score: 1

    Or Cher (especially the South Park piss take)

  16. Re:Former Internet Direct owner's comment.. on Laurence 'Green Card' Canter Has No Regrets · · Score: 1

    IIRC, Canter and Siegel's claim to fame was spamming every channel on usenet with the same unsolicited, off-topic advertisement. I think they were the first to do that. The pricks.

  17. Re:Tony Hoare on It's Not About Lines of Code · · Score: 1

    A goodish programmer who can do 1000 unobfuscated lines of code per day will have produced something that 5 clever lines a day can't:

    maintainability

  18. News Flash! on Knuth: All Questions Answered · · Score: 1

    Knuth farts. Everyone listens. Not to hear his sounds, but to boast to their friends they are into Knuth.

    Also reported, number of people who use the excuse "I'll wait until it's finished" for not reading The Art of Computer Programming trebled recently after Knuth had answers published.

    Finally, slashdot comment modded to record low after readers angrily reacted to anything that makes fun of all they revere. Sensitivity at all time high.

    Film at 11.

  19. Uni boxen on Server Naming Conventions? · · Score: 1

    My uni boxen were all named after sunken ships.
    "Ooops. Valdez just went down."

  20. Should edit submission text? on Toonami Producer on Editing Process · · Score: 2, Funny

    What mean last sentence?

  21. Anyone remember Kurt Russell in Soldier? on China Ahead in Stem-Cell Research · · Score: 1

    Looks like it's not too far away before GI's find themselves outclassed and outacted (but fortunately not outsmarted or outsmoked ) by genetically modified soldiers.

  22. Re:History on Slashback: 640K, Pioneer, Payback · · Score: 1

    Isn't it ironic that if BG gave away his source, we'd know how good he was?

  23. Future Nightmare Litigation on Designer Babies, Version 1.0 · · Score: 1

    Imagine insisting on having a "pure" unscreened child, and then the child sues you for their genetically inherited cancer.

  24. Nokia's Dev Kit? on Microsoft Enters the Cell Phone OS Market · · Score: 1

    Schweet! now I can write a good ol' fashioned pocket sized war dialler and port nmap to the nokia. Business as usual.

  25. New Borland No Nonsense Licence on Slashback: Switchover, EULA, Perspectives · · Score: 1

    "If you can afford it, buy it. If you can't afford it, try it. If it's any good, recommend it to people who can buy it."
