  1. There is only one way to true happiness... on The Science Of Happiness · · Score: 0, Flamebait

    You must find God.

  2. Re:Sanitation ? on Sun Discovers Dumb Terminals · · Score: 1

    Exactly. I see people leave the bathroom regularly without washing their hands. There's an invention worth creating in this issue someplace...

  3. Try this... on How Not To Ship Computers · · Score: 1

    Ship yourself in a box. Mark it "Fragile". See what happens. (Some guy did this in Ohio as a science project).

  4. Re:Irony - But see this... on Sir Alec Guinness Dies · · Score: 1

    In the CNN article it says... His 1977 role as Obi-Wan Kenobi introduced him to a new generation of filmgoers and made him financially secure. "I might never have been heard of again if it hadn't been for 'Star Wars'," he said. It sounds like he had at least some positive feelings for the genre.

  5. Speed of Electrical Signal on The Microphotonics Revolution · · Score: 1

    "(the speed of an electrical signal is virtually identical to a light signal)"

    An electrical signal travels about 2x10^8 m/s through copper wire, with SOL being 3x10^8 m/s through free-space.

  6. Nyquist Formula on How Many Frequency Bands Are There? · · Score: 1

    C = 2Wlog^2M where C = data rate (bps) W = bandwidth M = number of levels per signal element Say your bandwidth is 3000 Hz and you have eight levels per signaling element. Your data rate is then 18,000 bps. This equation is an ideal one as it does not take effects into account such as noise, signal attenuation, etc. Whew... My first post on Slashdot! :)
