    No. They are all being used by Developers.

  3. Interview from a few years back. on Interviews: J. Michael Straczynski Answers Your Questions · · Score: 2

    Here is an interview that's very B5/Crusade focused.

    Over 5 Hours in and still going.

  5. The nominations are still being read an hour later on YouTube's Ready To Select a Winner · · Score: 1

    They have been naming the nominations for over 67 minutes.
    They are the kings of "taking a joke too far". I love it.

  6. Re:I'm not even a fan, but on Orson Scott Card's Superman Story Shelved After Homophobia Controversy · · Score: 1

    One does not have the right to tell a publisher what to publish.
    One does have the right to decide whether they want to support that publisher with their dollars.

  7. Re:iGoogle on Ask Slashdot: Which Google Project Didn't Deserve To Die? · · Score: 1

    This is the number one thing I use Google for.
    I see it first thing and last thing, every day.
    Why would Google want to lose that much of my ad-viewing time?
    I really hope someone steps up and replaces iGoogle.

  8. Re:Whenever anyone mentions cheap VR headsets.... on Carmack On VR Latency · · Score: 2

    .... I can't help thinking this

    Seeing that makes my think of The Jerk.
    How long before people start suing for neck strain?

    I believe that they call that aluminum foil.

  10. Re:Graph on Grim Picture of Polar Ice-Sheet Loss · · Score: 1

    But what about the polar bear level, or the otter level?

  11. Re:Not this one. on Sony DVR Useless After Rovi Stops TV Guide OnScreen · · Score: 1

    Actually it has an RTC, just no way to "set" it manually.

  12. Re:rms is right on Sony DVR Useless After Rovi Stops TV Guide OnScreen · · Score: 1

    I own one of the HDD 250's. It's been great, but there is no way (that we know of) to change the firmware without Sony's keys. We can't even add drives to it.
    I guess it is time to build a Myth TV box.

  13. Re:Why arent ISPs using WiFi for last-mile? on 802.11ad Will Knock Your Socks Off, Says Interop Panel · · Score: 2

    I used to work for a WISP (Wireless ISP).
    They used 2.4 and 5GHz as well as the new 3.65GHz band (very narrow for now).
    We often shot 13+ miles with off the shelf equipment.
    Go look at ubnt.com, they have some cool TDMP stuff called AirMax.

    Man I wish I could find the +1 button on Slashdot.

    You obviously haven't been in a traditional school lately.

  18. Re:Learning to read? on The Biggest Dangers to Your Fiber · · Score: 2

    I agree.
    If you are on the interstate you probably have more than 8 miles to go.
    I often go over 100 MPH on the Interstate (admittedly I'm usually on my bike doing that, but not always [turbos are fun]).
    Interstates are built to go fast.

    If the person on your right is going faster than you then you are most likely in the wrong lane.

  19. I want to know what "10 adp" graphics are ... on Nintendo Announces New Console: Wii U · · Score: 1

    and where to get them.

  20. Give it to J. Michael Straczynski on Lack of Technology Puts Star Wars Series On Hold · · Score: 3, Interesting

  21. I was introduced to your music through Rock Band.
    Do you plan to release more of your songs on Rock Band?
    Will they have Pro Guitar support?
    Thanks,

  22. Space Laser on Ugly Truth of Space Junk · · Score: 1

    Couldn't they just use a laser on a satellite to push all the debris into the atmosphere?
    I don't imagine it would have to be a very powerful laser to do that for small debris.

  23. Re:skeptical ... on New Gasoline Engine Prototype Claims 3X Current Engine Efficiency · · Score: 1

    V8s are more powerful because they have more displacement.
    Have you ever seen the diesel engines in a large cargo ship?
