  1. Flynn Lives! on San Francisco Opening Computer & Video Game Museum · · Score: 1

    The museum should be at Flynn's Arcade, just for instant nerd cred, Oh wait, thats in San DIEGO

  2. Re:I gotta know on Top Student Charged With Fixing Grades For Cash · · Score: 1

    No, the password was probably "#2 pencil"

  3. Really? on The Empire Strikes Back Added To National Film Registry · · Score: 2

    I thought Reagan loved Star Wars. I would've assumed the SW trilogy was already in the registry

  4. Question on Inventor Creates Flotation Device Bazooka · · Score: 1

    Does this foam chemically react to the water or is there some sort of floater switch that activates the foam? Because if the foam chemically reacts to the water, then there could be long term storage problems if these projectiles are stored in a humid environment.

    Just wondering.

  5. I guarantee you that... on Full-Body Scanners Deployed In Street-Roving Vans · · Score: 2, Interesting

    The presidential Secret Service will buy and use one of these. Wherever the president goes somewhere public, these scanners will be sweeping parking lots to pre-empt any possible dangers.

    That's my prediction

  6. hooray! on North Korea Develops Anti-Aging "Super Drink" · · Score: 1

    Unfortunately its so costly that only dear leader can imbibe this drink and absorb all of its nutrients so completely that he doesn't need to pee.

    Their propaganda must be so effective that its immune to reason or sensibility. Scary

  7. Blade Runner on Patents On Synthetic Life "Extremely Damaging" · · Score: 1

    I'm glad I wasn't the only one that thought of Blade Runner.
    Maybe its because all the the synthetic pets in the movie/book had microscopic serial numbers. Serial numbers had become like cattle brands for mass production items. And those critters were biological AND artificially made.

  8. Sorry dude on GameStop Sued Over Lack of DLC For Used Games · · Score: 1

    Caveat emptor. Let the buyer beware. If you knew the game was USED then you had 7 days to return it.

    But i wonder how much game studios profit from DLC addons to their games. I'm thinkin Mass Effect 2, Fallout 3, GTA4, and others. Because the worth of DLC is variable from a freebies to 10-15$, always a fraction of the original retail game disc.

  9. Re:Doesn't matter what country you are in... on Wikileaks Receiving Gestapo Treatment? · · Score: 1

    Sounds like baiting,

  10. Candy on School Spying Scandal Gets Even More Bizarre · · Score: 1

    "My God, he's popping those pills like candy!"

    What kind of kid pops the fun pills while at a public school library?

  11. Re:Summary wrong: Not a coma! on "Vegetative State" Patients Can Communicate · · Score: 1, Insightful

    you mean 'Catatonic', right? That's how you would describe this condition.

  12. And also Your Honor... on Will Your Super Bowl Party Anger the Copyright Gods? · · Score: 1

    "It was also totally my fault that the NFL broadcasted in Hi Def for some strange reason."

  13. Re:It wasn't a scam on "Perpetual Motion DeLorean" Scammers Face $26M Judgment · · Score: 1

    "In this house we follow the laws of thermodynamics!" ~Homer Simpson~

  14. Yes! on Asus Says Netbook Is Dead, Hello Wearable Computers · · Score: 1

    Now I can finally calculate how much to tip waitresses on my watch! Oh wait, they invented that two decades ago.

  15. Could it be? on Disney Releases 3D Texture Mapper Source Code · · Score: 1

    Maybe they're looking for new talent and now applicants know where to send their resumes (their new website)

  16. Testing Process on The Weird Science of Tossing Stones Into a Lake · · Score: 5, Funny

    I'd love to see the testing process for this.

    Tries 1 - 100

    1. Plop
    2. Plunk
    3. Plunk
    4. Bloop
    5. Plunk ....

    Give me a grant!

  17. Potential Batman villain! on Escaped Convict Continues To Update Facebook · · Score: 1

    Every week he leaves a clue to lure the caped crusader into a devious trap.

  18. I wasn't twelve but... on How To Teach a 12-Year-Old To Program? · · Score: 1

    The first thing i learned to program was the TI-83 calculator.
    The programming language was pretty simple and easy to understand. You don't even have to make anything complicated to learn how it works. Just write one line and run the program, see how it works, fix it, and try again.

    Go for the TI-83 calc

  19. Better Living Through Chemistry. on Real-World Synthehol In Development · · Score: 1

    I move to add this title as a tag.

    But seriously, I'm curious. How much of this synthehol can you drink before overdosing? And what about the effects of mixing it with REAL alcohol? There isn't anything you can't consume too much of, even water.
    The alcoholic in me says I'm gonna try some as soon as it comes out.

  20. Re:You can KILL someone with this... on "Accidental" Download Sending 22-Year-Old Man To Prison · · Score: 1

    Send some kiddie porn images

    So then, YOU'D be possessing kiddie porn too. And then the Feds could be knocking down/at YOU'RE door.
    Since this is all hypothetical.

  21. Re:Similar Experience on 3D Video Game Collaboration Used To Solve Crimes · · Score: 1

    Depends.

    Crying if its an animated photo-realistic depiction of raping, punching, and urinating.
    Laughing if its an animated stick figure of raping, punching, and urinating.

    Stick figures are very abstract, so its hard to empathize.

  22. Re:Oh no... on Giving Touch-Screen Buttons Depth and Height With Pneumatics · · Score: 1

    exactly! I'd say more research is required so we can give the blind more access to info tech.

  23. Wow is right on NASA Attempts To Assuage 2012 Fears · · Score: 1

    I know. You'd think a a gov agency ran by nerds would only watch scifi movies, not lame disaster movies. But then some people can't differentiate fact from fiction.

  24. 5$ says that... on Low-Energy Laser Etching May Replace Fruit Labels · · Score: 1

    using a magnifying glass and a bright day is cheaper. I win. Money please.

  25. Next sequel on Ultracapacitor Bus Recharges At Each Stop · · Score: 0

    Keep this bus going at 88 MPH or it'll explode... Back In The Future!!!
