so using working HD's to power an electrical generator would probably only be good for one thing: nuking your data...and that's somewhat less impressive:)
Yeah, I can think of far more entertaining ways to nuke my data. Guns, explosives, and setting an old woofer magnet on the drive come to mind.
Now where were we....oh yeah, the important thing was that I had an onion on my belt, which was the style at the time....they didn't have white onions, because of the war, the only thing you could get was the big yellow ones.
I understand what you meant and I know you didn't actually mean the metal tin. I was attempting to be witty. Oh well, work was boring when I initially posted...I blame it on that.
I understand this is silly and no big deal. But wouldn't the aluminium foil industry be happier than the tin foil industry? Just a thought (even thought they are the same industry for all intensive purposes the same product...except for material). Don't take it too seriously.
Perhaps coating the tubes in a layer of aluminium a few atoms thick would solve the problem. The tinfoil inductry will be happy.
Just a thought...but why would the Tin Foil industry be excited about the use of aluminium? (I know they are usually made by the same company but that's beside the point)
And Elvis Costello doesn't mince words when he says, ''If you're a carpenter and you make a chair, and then somebody comes around your workshop and takes the chair away, you call the police. There isn't any gray area. It's just stealing.
So when Norm Abram make a copy of your wooden furniture on PBS it's stealing?

What is the difference between encrypted random data and random data?
Just put the "PGP Message Follows" header thingy in front of your random data. Hours of enjoyment for the whole family.
GPS is a GLOBAL Positioning System. Do we really need to be able to locate a glass in another hemisphere? And besides, if GPS's resolution is only granular down to the square-meter level, what good will that do in a bar that has a dozen glasses per square meter?
If the server can't figure out which glass in a square meter needs refilling then he/she has problems.
Lighten up. It is the Monday of a long weekend. If you don't like the stories Slashdot has, go spend time with your family. Go read a book, take a nap, do something. I'm sure there are a lot better things you could be doing than bitching about how a few people are having fun on Slashdot.
I suspect the largest group of whiners are people who don't get this Monday off and are stuck at work (like me...except I'm not whining about the joke stories...I'm enjoying them). If I could go spend time with my family or read a book or take a nap, I would. Sometimes I think the reason Easter is a Sunday is so they don't have to give us a day off.
The bright side of this is they also reset my info so that I would get all these offers sent to my Yahoo email account. All I use Yahoo for is Fantasy Baseball so they can spam that email account to their hearts' content.
This needs to be able to identify what I'm looking at so that I can get more information on the subject. Things like "That tree is a Larch" or "That guy is the perfect size for kicking his ass and taking his clothes".
Combine this with a wearable computer to project the naked bodies of porn stars over people we see every day. Now, instead of undressing the girl in marketing with my eyes I can undress her with my cyborg-eye.

If it came to Triple H vs. a panda, my money is on the panda.
Especially if it's the Giant Panda that is always attacking Brent in PvP.
Why wouldn't it make sense? Anakin made C-3P0...thus, Anakin is the Maker.
Technically, I suppose, Vader is C3PO's father, too.
I guess C-3P0 might be a traitor when he says "Thank the maker" in A New Hope.
That should read "for all intents and purposes"
Really? Wow. I guess you really do learn something everyday.

Maybe you could start yucking it up about how great wheelchairs are for people too lazy to walk. Your sensitivity is truly impressive.
I didn't know we were talking about Segways.

I think you missed the original poster's joke.
Just wondering....how would this help with cancer research projects?
They auction off server time to people who want to have the ultimate round of Counter-Strike and then donate the money to cancer research.
(For the record, IPR sounds more like an Apple licenesing idea, what with the iMac, iPod, and tons of iSoftware.)
But then it would be iPR.
I love that the headline reads "CEO of Brilliant..." and not "Brilliant CEO..."

It would be bad thing indeed.

In fact, they'd probably be pilotable ONLY by 13-year olds, as the result of some plot twist!
But only if the suit turns out to be your enemy.
If MS shit in a box (which they pretty much did with win ME) CNET would still love it.
But only if they marked it guaranteed.
