  1. 30 cents... on Cheap, 3D-Printed Stethoscope Challenges Top-of-the-Line Model · · Score: 1

    if you ignore the amortized cost of the 3-d printer, the wages to the 3-d printer operator, the electricity to run the 3-d printer, the lease for the building where the 3-d printer resides, and all sorts of other overhead.

  2. Crowdsourced prison on Time Runs Out On Sweden's Sexual Assault Charges Against Julian Assange · · Score: 2

    This guy spent 3 years in a building unable to leave? Sounds an awful lot like prison to me. Think of the tax dollars Sweden just saved!

  3. Re:Oh this is easy .... on Ask Slashdot: Living Without Social Media In 2015? · · Score: 5, Funny

    lol 3000s

  4. Re:Reliability? on OCZ Launches Vector Indilinx Barefoot 3 SSD, First All In-House Design · · Score: 1

    Neither. Micron, Intel, or Samsung. In that order.

  5. Re:so on Why the Number of O's In LOL Matter On YouTube · · Score: 4, Funny

    4 digits as requested.

  6. Re:Hm... on If You Don't Want Your Car Stolen, Make It Pink · · Score: 1

    Going back to the unix analogy of the parent... Have you seen some of the custom themes for Gnome/KDE out there? :)

  7. By that logic... on Microsoft Says Google Chrome Frame Makes IE Less Secure · · Score: 2, Insightful

    ... we should ban flash, acrobat reader, quicktime, and dozens of other plugins that all have regularly reported vulnerabilities.

  8. Re:The short story on Why Size Matters For Your SSD Purchase · · Score: 2, Funny

    Price.

  9. Re:Overpriced. on Microsoft Discloses Windows 7 Pricing · · Score: 1

    Yeah, and if I could buy snow leopard for my PC, I might actually consider it.

  10. Re:Oh the memories on Maddog's New Hampshire "Unix" Plate Turns 20 · · Score: 1

    I'll always look back fondly at the summer I spent at the spit brook road campus in Nashua. I interned there a couple years back working with a bunch of old DEC guys. A great team and a great building. It's a shame HP sold the building off. If someone from ZKO happens to run across this, send me a plate of Chori Pollo, stat! :)

  11. So here's the $10,000 question... on New Firefox Project Could Mean Multi-Processor Support · · Score: 2, Insightful

    Does the process separation prevent badly-behaved plugins needed for a good portion of websites in existence these days *cough*flash*cough*acrobat*cough* from killing your browser when they inevitably decide to break? Both plugins have been killing me on both win32 and linux. Noscript and mozplugger or foxit help to some degree, but firefox is by far the most unstable program I use these days because of plugins.

  12. Excellent news on Time Warner Shelves Plans For Tiered Pricing · · Score: 1

    Now, can we get Bell Canada to do the same?

  13. Re:Another one! on Shuttleworth Announces Karmic Koala · · Score: 1

  15. Qt4 Dance on Ubuntu Mobile Looks At Qt As GNOME Alternative · · Score: 1

    I bet the GNOME developers are going to run and go do the Qt4 Dance once they start programming in it.

  16. Here's an idea... on Ubuntu Download Speeds Beat Windows XP's · · Score: 1

    Swap the hard drives and run the benchmarks again. If they're identical save for the amount of ram, then the Windows XP installation shouldn't freak out about new hardware.

  17. Re:But will it run Crysis?... on Nvidia 480-Core Graphics Card Approaches 2 Teraflops · · Score: 2, Funny

    you sir, have won the game.

  18. Re:What Charging Infrastructure? on GM, Utilities Partner To Advance Plug-In Hybrids · · Score: 3, Insightful

    Very, very few people will pay new-car prices for a car that will go 150 miles then require a 3-hour recharge.

    Yeah, because my friends and I all drive more than 150 miles every day.

  19. Metered Internet. on Brightnets are Owner Free File Systems · · Score: 1

    I hope you don't plan on using that with RoadRunner, Rogers, Bell, or any other ISP with a transfer cap.

  20. Re:Secure in layers on How Would You Prefer To Send Sensitive Data? · · Score: 0

    Have courier one place encrypted volume on disk media, held in the locker of a train station. Courier two will pick it up later after being chased by men in black suits wearing sunglasses. One time key exchange should take place using steganography in various national newspaper headlines over a period of weeks.

  21. Dude, on Replacing a Personal Rack-Mounted Server? · · Score: 2, Interesting

    You're getting a Dell! Srsly tho, you can get rackmount servers from them for cheaper than you can build them yourself.

    and Timbits for the in-flight snack!

  24. Oh boy on Apple Cuts Off Linux iPod Users · · Score: 1, Troll

    good thing rockbox will continue to present a normal mass storage device that's about 300x easier to perform simple file operations with than iTunes.

  25. Re:"on supported hardware" on Compiz Gets Thumbs-Up for Gutsy Gibbon · · Score: 1

    I've been using Gutsy Gibbon on both a vmware image as well as a current-gen Santa Rosa-based laptop. Compiz has only been turned on for me when using the proprietary nvidia drivers on the laptop.
