  1. Here they come on Scientists Complete Universe Millennium Simulation · · Score: 2, Funny

    Let the Douglas Adams, and ruling order of mice, posts begin.

  2. Bout Time on Nuclear Battery That Runs 10 Years · · Score: 2, Insightful

    Its about time we start turning this direction for portable power needs. If certain "agencies" and media outlets would quit spreading misinformation and lies about these viable power sources then maybe we could make some real progress in the lack in the portable power dept. The densities that we are currently capable of, pale in comparison with today's needs. This would be just the ticket if the PR were handled correctly.

    Just my thoughts..... Nothing to see here.

  3. Make it "R" and maybe it can redeem the genre on Revenge of the Sith Officially Rated PG-13 · · Score: 5, Interesting

    I'm not talking "Hot Grits on Natalie Portman" kinda "R", but something with a bit more of an edge too it will definately be welcome. Something dark and serious for a change. Maybe have Tim Burton direct it......

    Mmmmmm Hot Griiiitssss.

  4. Brand new idea...... works great...... on Sunlight in a Tube · · Score: 1

    Wanting to get sunlight into an office building, Org, finds out if you burn sand long enough it makes it see through.... He then applys his cave-mind engineering skills to make this new stuff called...."Windows" and puts THOSE on the outside of walls to get the sunlight into his cave. Now he moves on to bigger and better things....like wheels and "Windows" operating systems.

  6. Re:MCI... on Verizon To Acquire MCI For $6.7 Billion · · Score: 1

    Mod Parent up.

    Speaking as one of the old UUnet Regime, things got real bad after Worldbomb came in and screwed everything up. UUnet was the first and best ISP out there and is still refered to fondly by its fallen comrades. Just wondering if there were any other former UUnut's out there haunting this board. Sound OFF.

  7. Download the internet on Movie Playback From 1TB Holographic Disc · · Score: 2, Insightful

    "Could you just put the internet on a disk for me so I can bring it home"

    I swear I used to get this question......

    Well with that much space you could cache a good part of it huh.

    And the beauty of internet pr0n is that the monitors don't stick together

  11. Great on Windows ATMs by 2005 · · Score: 2, Insightful

    Does anyone else think it might be a bad idea to give Billy Boy more power over money than he already has?

  12. China OWNZ on Asia Running Out Of IP Addresses · · Score: 0, Troll

    The only memo I got was about some TPS reports, and I used that to clean a fish with

  16. Small Problem on Self-Heating Can · · Score: 1

    Don't know if anyone caught the order that they presented heating the drink on the movie, but .... pouring the coffee into the cup and then turning it over to push the button would seem like a bad idea to me..... But that is just my limited vision of the world... maybe they intend for you to slurp it from your crotch afterwards.... part of the fun maybe?

  17. TPS Reports on Do You Like Your Job? · · Score: 1

    Did you get that memo on the TPS Reports? ... No?.... I will email it to you again... Riiiight.....

  18. Reroute Compromised Machines @HOME!!! on Shutting Down Worm-Infected Broadband Users · · Score: 1

    I don't understand why @home won't reference a database of compromised machines, reroute these customers to a master web server, and display a page saying "YOUR WEB SERVER HAS BEEN COMPROMISED". Then you make the patches available on that server via a link. That way the end user is made aware that instant. No call in costing the ISP money. The end user now has the responsiblity to either look at the pretty blinking red screen or patch their shite. Seems pretty easy to me. It will take a couple of engineers maybe a days work... but then you have to ask what is the cost of the degraded service tech support calls all day from thousands of disgruntled customers?

    Just some food for thought

  19. Washington DC Metro Area on Wireless Freenets · · Score: 1

    Does anyone know if their is an initiative to do a freenet in the DC metro area. With all the high tech workers here it would be a natual place to roll out a fairly massive one. If anybody has info on this I would be interested in joining and putting up an AP in my area. .

  20. Re:Crabs Ahoy! on Australians to Build Spaceport on Christmas Island · · Score: 1

  23. Phosphor Burn In on Eyeballing the Future of Retina Scanning Lasers · · Score: 1

    Makes Phosphor burn in like a walk in the park huh?.... Although a permanante image of Cindy Crawford burned into my retna might not be such a bad thing.... With my luck it would be Rosanne Barr though....

  24. So wait.... on Japanese I-Mode Phones Under Attack · · Score: 4

    Are you telling me that I can blame the messages that I leave on my ex-girlfriend's answering machine in a drunken stupor on a virus. Woo hoo. Gotta go make a phone call....
