  1. XBMC on Ask Slashdot: Best Way To Watch TV In 2012? · · Score: 3, Informative

    I made the switch from cable to XBMC. Well we still get our internet through the cable company, but no longer do I get television through them. There's plenty of free streaming plugins in XBMC. And I have a server in another part of the house that hosts digital copies of TV shows and movies that stream over the wireless to a seamless picture and sound. I subscribe to Amazon Prime and get a lot of TV shows that way. It is very DIY, but once it is working, it is great.

  2. like going to a auto shop on Stretchy Wires to Create Artificial Nerves · · Score: 0

    Now we will have to go to a certified mechanic to get our bodies checked out. It will be like our cars. We can't work on them any more becuase you need a computer to diagnose what the problem is. Soon we will have doctors hooking us up to machines to see what wrong. /paranoia

  3. boo on Intel Cites Breakthrough In Transistor Design · · Score: 0, Troll

    saw this hours ago. Come on guys. Keep up.

  4. It's a mobile suit, IT'S A GUNDAM!! on Essential Anime · · Score: 1

    Any from the Gundam series is good, although "Gundam Wing" is the most accessible. Also try "Ghost in the Shell". Try to avoid "Kiki's Delivery Service". We just got some Gundam models at our house. They rock.

    Don't rip on the Bourgeoisie, please....

  6. Re:You can't see the wall of china from space on Space Shuttle Mission Images · · Score: 1

    Interesting false fact. You cannot see the great wall of China from Space. Think about it for a minute. A brick Wall probably no wider than 50 feet wide in some places, in the mountains of China, built thousands of years ago can be seen; but an interstate highway cannot be seen streatched out across the Grteat Plains of America? I think not. I heard that this was a joke that was started during the Mercury Program at NASA. Some that was orbiting Earth said, sarcastically, "I can see the Great Wall of China!" (or something to that effect) as they were over China. Somehow the general public found out about this and thought that it was true. Sorry, highly unprobable. I had a history teacher in High School who said that he had taught this for years until I brought this to his attention. Sorry Dr. Montford. Sorry, I don't have any source for these statements, just that I have heard them or read them somewhere. Peace Out... KKPsi
