  1. Re:it blows up real good. on Miniature Fuel Cell To Keep Drones Aloft For Over An Hour (gizmag.com) · · Score: 3, Insightful

    You are aware that not all solid Oxide materials are flammable/explosive.

    Fe2O3nH2O or FeO(OH), Fe(OH)3 or Iron Oxides, otherwise known as Rust. Try to explode that.

  2. Re:So? on Raspberry Pi 3 Rolls Out With Faster CPU, On-Board Wi-Fi, and Bluetooth · · Score: 3, Funny

    Hey when the whole family is watching the toaster from their phones to see who is first to get the eggo waffle, 10Mb/sec is just to slow. I could completely miss the eggo popping up and my kids get it first.

  3. Re:Awesome on Raspberry Pi 3 Rolls Out With Faster CPU, On-Board Wi-Fi, and Bluetooth · · Score: 2

    Really you put your garage door on the internet, well it is now open, better check it and shut it.

  4. Not going to be anonymous for long. on Yahoo Releases Largest Ever Machine Learning Dataset To Researchers (tumblr.com) · · Score: 2

    My evil AI machine learning algorithms should have this problem licked post haste.

  5. Re:It'll be out of date on Microsoft Teams With Automakers To Put Windows, Office In Cars (microsoft.com) · · Score: 2

    LOL,

    My 66 Mustang would be running on Vacuum tubes.

  6. This will help law enforcement be safer. on Obama Orders Feds To Study Smart Gun Technology (cnet.com) · · Score: 1

    Sounds like this could stop all those cop killings with RFID, Fingerprints and other technology to prevent accidental shootings. Oppppppps, this won't be required for law enforcement.

  7. Re:I'm kind of ambivalent about this. on Hit-and-Run Suspect Arrested After Her Own Car Calls Cops (yahoo.com) · · Score: 1

    What kind of vehicle can you drive around with 40,000 tons or 80 Million LBS of water. I don't think they allow that size load on any roads in the states, and yes the vehicle should call the authorities on you for doing that.

  8. Re:the next Kickstarter project on DHS Wants Access To License-plate Tracking System, Again · · Score: 3, Interesting

    Even better, get some bumper stickers with random numbers characters on them, and the plate readers will have multiple numbers to collect.

    bumper stickers are not illegal yet.

  9. Re:Well, duh on FAA Says Ad-Bearing YouTube Drone Videos Constitute "Commercial Use" · · Score: 1

    Bingo mod this person up, if people read the article, they would find that he hasn't received a payment, but that he has earned less than a dollar in revenue. So his is making money although very little money from his videos, so technically his is in violation of the FAA's rules and could be fined for it.

  10. Re:Getting there. on Long-range Electric Car World Speed Record Broken By Australian Students · · Score: 1

    However my current 1 ton truck at 66mph will go over 700 miles on a tank easy, at 70+ mph it made the trip home from the dealer at 654 miles and still had some fuel left.

    I suggest you get a better vehicle.

  11. Wow only 45 miles longer than a Tesla Model S that has been in production for a while now, that is truly a massive breakthrough

  12. Mythbusters on Boston Marathon Bomber Charged With Using 'Weapon of Mass Destruction' · · Score: 1

    Well I guess the MythBusters have been using WMD's all along.

    I guess they are in big trouble now.

  13. LOL Power companies are profiting from infringment on RIAA Lawyer Complains DMCA May Need Revamp · · Score: 5, Insightful

    It takes electricity to power those copying material. I guess the power companies should also police the web.

    One idiot to bind them all.

  14. But will it end Man Purses on PayPal Predicts the End of the Wallet By 2015 · · Score: 2

    Yep, an my employer will still require receipts for expense reports. Now it 2015 wallets will be gone and I will have to carry a damn man purse.

    Better buy a stock of wallets to have a supply after 2015.

  15. Just like 3D movies on The Misleading World of Atari 2600 Box Art · · Score: 1

    So this is just like wrapping a crappy movie in 3D to make people forget that the story like is a steaming pile.

  16. Obligatory conspirasy theory! on AT&T, Comcast To Join RIAA Team · · Score: 1

    Wonderful, this looks like both AT&T and Comcast, now are starting to see that this might help them lock out competition, it would be the only reason they would partner with the RIAA. Implimentation of something that would help prevent file sharing would only cost them money and most likely customers. So the only reason I can see this happening is some way to lock out the competition.

    They are all (#@^%_('ers, glad I don't have to be stuck with either one.

    As a note I don't listen to music much and don't download it, but I will be pissed if they start limiting the file sharing that doesn't breaking copyright laws.

  17. WTF! on Return of the '70s Microsoft Weirdos · · Score: 0, Redundant

    I don't get it here are only 2 girls in the 70's photo and 3 in the recent photo.

    Which one had a sex change?

  18. Re:Adobe on Office 2003 Service Pack Disables Older File Formats · · Score: 1

    Adobe is much worse than MS when it comes to upgrading. Just look at Photoshop and their camera raw converters, as soon as a new version of Photoshop is out, the older ones don't get the converters for new cameras that come out, they force you to upgrade to the latest version of Photoshop if you want support for your new camera.

    Tell me that isn't trying to force peoples hands to upgrade.

  19. RTFA on TSA Limits Lithium Batteries on Airplanes · · Score: 2, Informative

    There is a reason given if you take the time to read.

    The FAA has found that current systems for putting out aircraft cargo fires could not suppress a fire if a shipment of non-rechargeable batteries ignited during flight, the release said.

  20. Positive results. on Tool Detects "In-Flight" Webpage Alterations · · Score: 1

    I always thought it was funny that I get tons of MicroSoft ads when viewing slashdot, now it all makes sense with my MSN as my ISP they are inserting those nasty ads everywhere.

  21. Re:Don't tell Microsoft! on Apple Charges For 802.11n, Blames Accounting Law · · Score: 1

    Well that is not entirely true, your car is limited to 130 because of manufacture liability. My mustang would have been limited below 130 if a got the standard tires, they are not rated for speeds in excess of 130 mph. I did get the upgraded z series tires when purchased, an the limiter is not set on my car, it will do around 145 in stock form.

    Unless you buy new tires, you would be hard pressed to find any car dealer that would change that, even then their might be some liability issues, and they still might not do it.

  22. Re:some personal thoughts about advertising on TiVo from AdZapper to Advertiser's New Best Friend · · Score: 1

    Well if they really wanted to do a better job, they would provide a thumbs up and thumbs down for comercials. Once they get a thumbs down for that comercial it will always skip it in the future.

    Not only could they make customers a little more happy, you only have to see one once, but they could collect information for the Ad Agencies so that they know what works and what doesn't in comercials, and sell that info back to the Ad Agencies.

    Damn I better patent that idea.

  23. Can't wait for the lawsuits. on Symantec Will Not Detect Magic Lantern · · Score: 1

    This will actually be fun, when I get infected with it, and the FBI doesn't have a warrent for this to be there. Then the government will have a lot of explaining to do, and will end up costing the taxpayers for their incompetance.

  24. Re:don't forget... on CERT Finds Routers Increasingly Being Cracked · · Score: 1

    Pain in the arse moderators. This should be modded, that is exactly what tripwire does, there is no protection or cleaning of the system it just tells you something has changed, and what that was.

  25. Re:Ale vs. Lager on Beer In Space · · Score: 1

    It is not hard to increase the alcohol content of beer above the crap they sell at stores, the problem is that by adding more fermentables they might actually add some flavor to the beer, and then they wouldn't be selling piss water anymore.
