  1. Missed it by *that* much on How The Internet Works - With Tubes · · Score: 1

    So close! If he'd said that you need a fat pipe rather than a tube, he would have been 3L33T.

  2. Re:explain on Flying Robots Made From Cellophane? · · Score: 1

    As you can see from Wiki EGGMAN RULZ, er, that cellophane is made from cellulose. I wonder if they could use cellulite which is manufactured from stupidity?

  3. Watch out for suicide fly bombers! on Flying Robots Made From Cellophane? · · Score: 2, Interesting

    If they make them with nitrocellulose, then swarms of tiny exploding fly drones could be the new terror weapon. Don't say I didn't warn you!

  4. Re:Pretty standard Access job on Generating Reports from Access and Excel Files? · · Score: 1

    Usually a linked table from an ODBC source...

  5. Re:mispronounced on Dick Tracy's New Linux Box? · · Score: 1

    That's progress! Last week it thought they said "Eat up Martha".

  6. Re:voice recognition on Dick Tracy's New Linux Box? · · Score: 2, Interesting

    It'd be nice if Nuance didn't have a lock on the market by aquiring the bits of all the speech companies that crashed and burned.

  7. Re:It's morphin' time! on Dick Tracy's New Linux Box? · · Score: 1

    And those spaceships with the showerhead jets all over them.

  8. It turns on only when you look at it? on Dick Tracy's New Linux Box? · · Score: 1

    It turns on only when you look at it, so it saves power.

    I didn't see any reference to how it switches on in TFA or the PR PDF. I was wondering how it detected that you were looking at it. (Is it like the old Pulsar LED watch that you had to shake your wrist to see the time?)
  9. Re:Welcome, Big Brother on Canadian ISP Shoulder Surfing · · Score: 1

    Not to mention that it makes for one-stop shopping for unauthorized bad guys who want to pwn the data stream.

  10. Re:Good riddance! on Canadian ISP Shoulder Surfing · · Score: 1

    They used to make noises that Sympatico was seperate from Bell Canada. If I have Primus (over Bell copper) does the Sympatico part of Bell get to see any of it?

  11. Re:Better for linux than it is for Linksys on Linux Hackers Reclaim the WRT54G · · Score: 1

    That can't be right. The Slackware 2.1 (Linux 1.1) docs say that it can run in 2MB ram (but recommends at least 4MB).

  12. Re:Better for linux than it is for Linksys on Linux Hackers Reclaim the WRT54G · · Score: 1

    I keep my Slackware 2.1 CD handy for the occasional 486 box. It might go down as low as 4M. (If it didn't, I'd fish out my Coherent floppies--and then try to remember how to get networking running.) Just don't expose it to the Internet 'cause it's behind a bit on exploit patching.

  13. Hacking other makes: Netgear WGR614v5 on Linux Hackers Reclaim the WRT54G · · Score: 3, Informative

    The last time I looked, the best info seemed to be the seattlewireless.net page. Are there any pages with more info? I haven't had the time or need (so far) to alter it, but eventually...

  14. Re:You'd think... on 1st Heinlein Prize Awarded · · Score: 2

    Why not give him a spacesuit? ('cause you just never know...)

  15. Re:The best part? on 1st Heinlein Prize Awarded · · Score: 1

    And a spare knife taped to his leg, in case of stobor.

  16. Re:old wives tail? on Mobile Phones and Lightning a Lethal Mix · · Score: 1

    Don't you ever get that email for hot & lonely old wife tail?

  17. Re:Guess everone better take off their Levis then. on Mobile Phones and Lightning a Lethal Mix · · Score: 1

    Trying to slide on your front will wipe that smile off your face. (Especially if you're wearing a 3/4 or beanie helmet.)

  18. Plan B on How to Protect Yourself with Startups? · · Score: 5, Interesting
    So the other day, I saw they were bought out.

    Talked to the new owners about a job yet?

  19. Re:Pushed back? on French PM Unreceptive To RMS · · Score: 1

    I think a more likely translation would be turned away.

  20. Re:D'oh on How Not to Steal a Sidekick · · Score: 1

    Superheroes TM are always losing their sidekicks.

  21. Re:Quaking in my boots on Detox Clinic Opening for Video Game Addicts · · Score: 1

    So just what exactly is a gamer's "Higher Power"?

  22. Re:text messages on Back to the Bunker · · Score: 4, Funny

    BIN-L: WAZZUP!

  23. Re:Fill'er up! on On Orbital Fuel Stations · · Score: 1

    They're not that high-performance, it's just the way those astro-soccer moms fly.

  24. Re:Has to be said on When Cellphones Become Webservers · · Score: 1

    Why ask? Just check the webcam on the pocket server...

  25. Fill'er up! on On Orbital Fuel Stations · · Score: 1

    I hope they'll properly tax those damned fuel-guzzling Space Urban Vehicles!
