  1. Re:rerip your CD collection on Ask Slashdot: How Do I Scrub Pirated Music From My Collection? · · Score: 1

    Exactly. Stale bit rot reduces fidelity. Also, if you don't keep your audio files on a hard drive with properly tuned tungsten feet that rest on a granite slab at least 2" thick, and use cables made from pure supernova produced silver, that was collected from space before it fell to earth and got contaminated, your Justin Bieber collection is gonna sound like crap.

    All that is gold does not glitter,
    not all those who wander are lost;
    the old that is strong does not wither,
    deep roots are not reached by the frost.

    Yeah, well, I look nothing like the little kid who stood in line back in '77. Things change, people get old, and... Damn it! You kids get off mah lawn!

  12. Re:Typewriter, George! on Lack of Technology Puts Star Wars Series On Hold · · Score: 2

    Um, Star Wars was pretty much just a re-imaging of the samurai film The Hidden Fortress. The creativity that Lucas put into Star Wars was exactly what he's known for: special effects, detailed backgrounds and over-the-top fight scenes. Not sure if anyone could expect anything more from him?

    Ok, but what about the flying? If yellow sunlight gives Kryptonians the power of flight, how does that work? Are they able to negate the effects of gravity and just float? What about thrust; where does that come from? And if they can negate the effects of gravity in a yellow star system, Does that mean that Power Girl would need a heavy duty bra in a red star system?

    So, let's start with facts and then extrapolate.

    Number of planets confirmed to have life? 1.

    Number of star systems confirmed to have life? 1.

    Number of galaxies confirmed to have life? 1.

    Alright, I've done the hard work. I'll let the rest of y'all get on with the figuring and equationizing.
