    Unlike the rest of the world New Zealanders have a knack for surviving natural disaster so we have to find other ways to kill ourselves.

  3. yes! on Will Game Cartridges Make a Comeback? · · Score: 2

    If it means a end to scratched disks, next disk requests and load times I welcome our old overlords.

  6. Re:How long until this works for music? on Machine Translates Thoughts Into Speech · · Score: 1

    Until someone infects the world with a ear worm and cripples the music industry.

  7. Sonic weapons on G20 Protesters Blasted By "Sound Cannon" · · Score: 1

    Sonic weaponry is honestly quite nasty stuff, and should be banned.

    The variety of side effects they can induce ranging from hearing loss to liquefaction of internal organs isn't a laughing matter, especially when its almost as simple as turning a dial for the operator.

  8. I thought it was already well known on Sound From Bird Wings Act As a Predator Alarm · · Score: 1

    That most bird species make a different sound on a alarmed take off.

    Most of them just beat their wings harder than normal to make a thumping sound to alert other birds to the possibility of danger.

  9. Its going everywhere! on US Court Tells Microsoft To Stop Selling Word · · Score: 0, Offtopic

    The brown just hit the fan.

  10. Re:Possible fraud? on Cure For Radiation Sickness Found? · · Score: 1

    In other words, not for general use.
    Only those who got large short term exposures, in conjunction with other drugs.

  11. Re:Reroute the weather instead on Google's Chiller-Less Data Center · · Score: 1

    Google search built ontop of bittorrent!

    Where your search is dynamically routed to the nearest seed in the cloud.
    Please remember to seed after downloading your search results damn leachers.

  12. Re:Technically not trolling. on Researcher Trolls MMO, Surprised When Players Hate Him · · Score: 1

    I remember the days of playing CS over lan.
    A friend of mine had the 'AWP twitch', instantly hitting most of us the moment a toe came into view.
    Add to that his volume was set to max so he could hear other players walking around from miles away with his headset and you have a sniping monster.

    I spent a night of 1v1 against him playing around trying to get at him with a glock/eagle and developed a spastic dodging technique, which basically consisted of lots of fast random movement and jumping timed to AWP reloads.

    Games usually came down to whether or not he could hit me first time if he was using a AWP, and became roughly 50/50 rather than 90/10 and made for alot of laughs when I jumped into rooms with a tmp and proceeded to jump around trying for head shots while they were reloading.

    Whats even funnier is I actually moved in my seat the way I was dodging aswell.

  13. Re:FW on A Twitter Client For the Commodore 64 · · Score: 2, Insightful

    Why not?

    Im sending this to my dad in the hopes he will revive the ole 64 back home.

  14. Interesting on Sniffing Browser History Without Javascript · · Score: 1

    Thats a interesting trick.

    Doesnt actually require iframes, and can be used by advertisers to pin down your 'preferences' over several pages as they track you.

  15. Teach the users on How Do IT Guys Get Respect and Not Become BOFHs? · · Score: 1

    I like to teach my users to read the screen and also why something goes wrong.
    Other than a select few users, a little bit of extra time spent with communication goes a long way towards stopping repeat 'offences'.
    Also means I only really get called for major stuff now so I can actually focus on projects.

    Also when I implement a restriction I make sure to point out why, and because of who it was implemented.
    Offloads a lot of resentment that would be pointed at you towards the culprit ;)

  16. Re:Slow takeoff. on Towards Artificial Consciousness · · Score: 4, Funny

    A cats brain? Its as if he is deliberately trying to enslave humanity.

  17. Re:Is it rechargable? on World's First Battery Fueled By Air · · Score: 1
