  4. Pretty funny, dude. on SubZero Chilled Alcohol PC Cooling · · Score: 1

    Too bad these two other respondants have no sense of humor. Maybe their clocks are real small and they suffer from P-envy.

  5. Brainfart. on SubZero Chilled Alcohol PC Cooling · · Score: 1

    Nitrogen is the most common ingrediant in air. I apologise, it's been a long time since highschool chemestry. An interesting note, however, CO2 fire extinguisher systems a often built into computer rooms in place of water systems, for obvious reasons. I am instructed, if the system goes off for any reason to get out of the room immediately.

  6. Re:C02 is not a good thing. on SubZero Chilled Alcohol PC Cooling · · Score: 1

    Carbon dioxide is the major ingrediant in the air you breathe. Since plants utilize it through photosynthesis to produce oxygen, and we breathe oxygen and produce carbon dioxide, you could suffer from hypoxia if you were in a confined, unvented space and released large quantities of it. However, in my own personal experience, the greatest danger from dry-ice is forgetting yourself and touching it with your bare hand. It sticks to flesh like napalm and can cause burn-like damage you the skin. Handle with tongs or special, insulated gloves, only.

  7. Re:Why this is a good idea on ReplayTV's Remote Remote · · Score: 1

    Wait..let me get this right; you sign-on to your computer and log on to your ISP so you can remotely control your TV tomorrow so you can watch it later...I am losing my fargin mind.

  8. Buying a faster CPU for a bloated OS, on Coming Soon From Intel · · Score: 1

    is like buying a new wardrobe for your wife. She won't keep trying to keep trim. She'll be glad to gain more so you will take her shopping again.

  10. Re:Stoned and dethroned on Intel To Pull Plug on RAMBUS, Use SDRAM? · · Score: 1

    Stop it, you're killing me. I am the nitewatch for the IS dept. and my shift just started. (Sober and bored.)

  11. Re:Dammit on Online Rights And Real World Censorship? · · Score: 1

    Pr0n is the expression of our twisted, puritanical problems with s3x. When we get over the problem, the pr0n will go away. (Remember, Ja invented s3x, and I for one think it was some of Ja's best work.)

  12. Re:No Nazi items on auction... on Yahoo! Given Reprieve In French Court Battle · · Score: 1

    Truly! I have an early copy of Rudyard Kipling's stories with two swastika on the cover. The symbol was a good luck symbol for several of the world's cultures for a thousand years before Nazis got ahold of it.

  13. Noooooooooooooooooo!!!!! on Yahoo! Given Reprieve In French Court Battle · · Score: 1

    But..but..that would require them using judgement and common sense and taking responsibility for their own actions and making their own descisions and they wouldn't be able to blame somebody else for what they do and..and..they wouldn't be able to walk around all their lives in a hyptnotic like trance having handed all of their self-authority over to a commanding set of laws..and..and......omigod! Help! It's all one big horrible nightmare! Don't let it happen, daddy!

    Sure, so you can soil your skivvies and launder them at the same convienant shop.

  15. Sister Mary Elephant, with a hardwood ruler. on Online Rights And Real World Censorship? · · Score: 1

    Live, librarian-type monitoring is the only effective way to allow students to access the interesting and stimulating parts of the internet, without them getting too interested or stimulated.

  16. Chum the waters! on University to Review Carnivore · · Score: 1

    The only way for the American people to protect their liberty against this intellectual predator is to include at least one word in each email that it might construe as criminal or seditious. But, for this to work we must all pick a word and use it in every transaction. Like Ben Franklin said, "We must all hang together or we will most assuridly all hang separately." My word for the day is; letterbomb.

  17. It's in the job description. on University to Review Carnivore · · Score: 1

    Relax, my friend. This material nonsense won't last too long. So we get beat-up by the fearful and hateful, big deal.

  18. Re:I'm a little confused. on University to Review Carnivore · · Score: 1

    I don't think you are confused at all.

  19. Re:Umm.. why a university? on University to Review Carnivore · · Score: 1

    Because testing this on a university LAN is like shooting fish in a barrel.

  20. Re:Journalistic Ethics? on Ian Clarke of Freenet Intereview · · Score: 1

    The answer is, Democracy. Civil disobediance is a right provided you accept the consequences of your acts.

  21. Great! (not.) on Getting Closer To DNA Computing · · Score: 1

    That's all we don't need. Smart, designer bacteria. This stuff recombines in a water medium? My brain is mostly water! Besides, how do you connect a keyboard and a monitor to a petrie dish full of algar?

  22. Re:The next question is.. on Getting Closer To DNA Computing · · Score: 1

    It's the old Niven universe you are thinking about. They ground-up corpsecicles and extracted the RNA in order to facilitate the transplant the neural path memories of the dead into the bodies of condemned criminals: Ten Million Years from Earth. (Bwuah-ha-ha!)

  23. "So, can I get the spam, spam, eggs, ham and spam" on E-Mail Patent Roundup From The NYT · · Score: 1

    "...without the spam?"

  24. Re:Web cam... on E-Mail Patent Roundup From The NYT · · Score: 1

    Sorry, chowda, Dogpile won't hack-up anything either. I just remember seeing this product. Orphan file, sorry.

  25. Re:Lojack on E-Mail Patent Roundup From The NYT · · Score: 1

    Cool thought, jjr. If the thief was a pro he would soon learn of people installing Lojack in computers. Chopping a computer is simple to chopping a car, and he or she would find the device and dispose of it quickly..unless it was integrated into another componet like the powersource.
