  1. I bet this could be used as a military weapon... on Scientists Create Lullabies From Brain Waves · · Score: 1

    Think about it...some kind of sensor mechanism that can pick up the brainwaves of everyone on the battlefield, hooked up to a loudspeaker. Or perhaps a man portable version that could be used the same way one uses a gun.

    Patent pending, of course. :D

  2. Re:This may be new in the USA on Shop Till It Drops · · Score: 1

    Cthulu?

  3. Re:why?! on Canadian ISPs Could Take On Big Brother Role · · Score: 1

    We all know how well karma based systems work.

    And I thought a meritocracy was where the people placed in charge are those best able to carry out the job. Oh well. Thus is the quality of my HS education. Time to do some reading, I think.

  4. Re:How did this get modded up? on Mozilla 1.1 Hits The Street · · Score: 1

    *bingo*

  5. Re:Debian packages? on Mozilla 1.1 Hits The Street · · Score: 1

    The maintainer probably hasn't finished compiling it yet. It's not like donating his time to work on Debian pays for Athlon XP 2600 based compile farms...

    I agree with the packaging system thing. There should be a dpkg based install command that does the normal install procedure, but creates a pseudopackge that can be removed or manipulated at will (although removing is the only function I can think of that would work properly without a lot of extra dicking around on the part of the user).

  6. But Mozilla still has some weaknesses on Mozilla 1.1 Hits The Street · · Score: 5, Funny

    1.1 is still a very immature version, compared to the Internet Explorer family of technologies, which is currently in version 6.x and still being improved daily.

    When will Mozilla feature speedier web browsing, and better integration with best-of-breed Microsoft products such as MSN messenger and Outlook XP?

    A theme that more closely matches the award winning Windows look-and-feel would also be helpful.

  7. Re:They are almost saints on E-Mail Forwarding Patented, PTO Sued · · Score: 0

    As a student, I sure am looking forward to getting a substantial discount from that hefty $20 registration fee.

    If only Microsoft had such fair pricing. They wouldn't have to ban product keys because everyone would just buy teh damn software.

  8. Re:Fragging Booster on Gaming Fuel: 4-way Shootout · · Score: 0

    Lmao.

  9. Re:Let's hope... on CompactBSD for Embedded Projects · · Score: 0

    They got overconfident. A basic rule of thumb is never to run things by default. Even when they have 'secure' in the name.

    Peter shitty.

  11. Anyone watch the last episode of The X-Files? on The End Of The Innovation Road for CMOS · · Score: 0

    The final invasion is also set for 2012. Hmmm.

    Therefore: Private parties have the express right to perform unreasonable searches and seizures!

    Too bad private parties don't have the right to beat the living hell out of other private parties. Or wait...

    • The government is not permitted to inflict cruel and unusual punishment.
    • All rights not expressly given to the government are reserved for the people.

    Now I will go set punji traps for the BSA inspectors.
  13. That is a major plan. on Farber, Neumann, and Weinstein Call for End to ICANN · · Score: 1

    It will take time to do, especially if ICANN does not want to give up control. It's got to be done though.

  14. Microsoft prohibits VNC too. on Farber, Neumann, and Weinstein Call for End to ICANN · · Score: -1, Offtopic

    First I hope.

    It doesn't work fucktard.

  20. Re:Woah! $500 for a 40 Gig HD + Ethernet... on LinuxWorld Summary · · Score: 1

    It's $500 for a PS2 and a Linux kit. You didn't think they dropped the price, and started including additional hardware for free, did you?

  21. Re:Eddie Gentry, Slashdotter to the End on Yahoo News Posts Advertisements as News · · Score: 1

    Well, any place but here is good, IMO. Somethingawful sounds like a good bet though. It is exactly their kind of humor.

  22. Re:Eddie Gentry, Slashdotter to the End on Yahoo News Posts Advertisements as News · · Score: 1

    Hell. Make a web site about how much slashdot sucks. I don't know of any of those besides this one (although I have not searched exhaustively for them.)

  23. Re:Eddie Gentry, Slashdotter to the End on Yahoo News Posts Advertisements as News · · Score: 1

    Sorry, I assumed you were one of those 15 year old lamer-trolls.

    More like somethingawful.com than rotten.com (the former has actual content, the latter just has disgusting pictures). But I really meant that you should write more short fiction, and perhaps try to get it published.

    It's possible that I don't know what I am talking about here, but it is clear you are smarter than the average troll.

    PS: I noticed the date you chose was April 19, and immediatly thought that Eddie was going to go kill a few dozen people at school. Did you choose it for that reason or just at random?

  24. Re:Eddie Gentry, Slashdotter to the End on Yahoo News Posts Advertisements as News · · Score: 1

    You (or whoever wrote that) is a very talented writer. That talent is wasted on Slashdot, however. You (or whoever) should develope it, or at least use it to pass a few english classes and get your ass out of high school and find something to do with your life besides trolling Slashdot.

  25. Better to rely on reputable sites for news. on Yahoo News Posts Advertisements as News · · Score: 1

    I like the BBC and the Independant Media Center.

    I have 5 mod points. Anyone want to paypal me some money in exchange for depositing them on comments of their choice?
