  1. Re:Gimbal? on CEV Revolutionary Gimballed Thrusters · · Score: 1
    So, it's not what slithy toves do in wabes?
    'Twas brillig, and the slithy toves
    Did gyre and gimble in the wabe:
    All mimsy were the borogoves,
    And the mome raths outgrabe
  2. Re:firewalls? on Oracle 'Worm' Exploit Modified · · Score: 1

    In a perfect world, yes. But in this one, people even leave their Electric Bong directly connected to the internet. (So they can switch the bong off remotely while having an out-of-body experience??)

  3. Re:I Don't Get It on PC FM Tuner Streamed Over a LAN? · · Score: 1

    Once you've streamed it from wherever, you could output it to an FM transmitter and listen to it on the radio. This might confuse the neighbours if you're streaming it in from outside the local area (and annoy the authorities if you use too much power).

  4. Re:Ob. Simpsons on Your Cell Records For Sale Online, Cheap · · Score: 1

    Not all the numbers in 555 exchange are guaranteed bogus any more. According to the FCC, it's just the 0100-0199 range.

  5. Re:Whacky science.... on Warp Engines In Development? · · Score: 1
    Yeah, the TV show is just a cover for the real Project Stargate. In a national emergency, they could draft Dr.Gene Ray.

    Well, boys, I reckon this is it. Kooklear combat, toe-to-toe with the Koreans.

  6. Spindizzy on Warp Engines In Development? · · Score: 1

    It's probably easier than building a bridge on Jupiter to get a working Spindizzy.

  7. Re:Smoke me a kipper... on Warp Engines In Development? · · Score: 1

    Zephram Goldenpalace.com. (He had to raise funds somehow.)

  8. Re:Phily experiment all over again. on Warp Engines In Development? · · Score: 2, Informative

    Here's a a link for those who've never heard of it.

  9. They've got a Z-Machine? on Warp Engines In Development? · · Score: 1
    The US air force has expressed an interest in the idea and scientists working for the American Department of Energy - which has a device known as the Z Machine that could generate the kind of magnetic fields required to drive the engine - say they may carry out a test if the theory withstands further scrutiny.
    I've got a few of Z-Machines too. See:
    Welcome to Dungeon. This version created 30-AUG-90.
    You are in an open field west of a big white house with a boarded front door.
    There is a small mailbox here.
  10. Re:moon terrorists on Scientists Witness Meteor Strike on the Moon · · Score: 1

    Just so long as they weren't playing with TORCHWOOD again.

  11. Re:I would rather that... on Spammer Gets $11 Billion Fine · · Score: 2, Funny

    To let the punishment fit the crime, a source of innocent merriment would be to let everyone he spammed slap him in the face--once for each spam. "He's no fun, he fell right over!"

  12. Economic Death Penalty on Spammer Gets $11 Billion Fine · · Score: 1
    Would that be by lethal bad credit rating injection, balance electrocution, employment firing squad, or by guillotining his bank cards?

    (Just as I was begining to control my twitching every time someone slaps terrorism on something they don't like. Copyright Terrorists, parking lot terrorists, poop'n'scoop terrorists, even terror terrorists.)

  13. Re:ref Four On The Floor on Microsoft Unveils 'Urge' Music Service · · Score: 1

    They're now doing CDs from the old CBC Radio archives of Frantic Times

  14. Re:Second Amendment Complaint? on SCO Amends Novell Complaint · · Score: 1

    I'd have thought they'd try the Establishment Clause of the 1st. Just claim to be some UFO cult/religion, or something. That's something people would believe, and they could get a lot of money from people if they claimed it was for Nike "Just Do It" outfits and comet tickets.

  15. Re:Moonbuggy.... on The Physics Behind Car Crashes · · Score: 1

    Sure, until you get in an accident with one of the other two Lunar Rovers on the Moon. Then try calling the AAA for a tow!

  16. Re:Physics of car crashes aren't intuitive. on The Physics Behind Car Crashes · · Score: 1

    The H2 "Hummer" is just a big ugly fuel-sucking SUV to cash in on the name. Here's a site by someone who really doesn't like them.

  17. Re:weight& speed are the big issue here on The Physics Behind Car Crashes · · Score: 5, Funny

    But strangely, the bus will rapidly gain mass after an accident, from all the people who said they were on the bus and want to file an injury claim. Even stranger, this mass gain happens even when the accident is simulated.

  18. Three Dead Trolls in a Baggie on Windows, Linux 25 Year Old "Clunkers"? · · Score: 1

    Every OS Sucks! (Requires a computer that can play video, D'OH!)

  19. Re:fun? .. Video Internet = Mandatory DRM on Windows, Linux 25 Year Old "Clunkers"? · · Score: 1
    Whoever buys into a scheme that is supposed to double/tripe/quadruple their money overnight deserves the "Experience" they get.

    Yeah, I bought this stuff from an email that was supposed to do that and .. oh .. money.

    Never mind.

  20. Re:Only 70kg? on Scientists Witness Meteor Strike on the Moon · · Score: 1
    (Slashdot could be smarter about handling non-HTML Which is pretty good for a little 12 centimeter (< 5") rock. Mind you, at 27 km/s, just about anything is a WMD--imagine if it had been a whole Volkswagen (VWMD)!

  21. Re:Only 70kg? on Scientists Witness Meteor Strike on the Moon · · Score: 2, Interesting

    Which is pretty good for a little 12 centimeter (anything is a WMD--imagine if it had been a whole Volkswagen (VWMD)!

  22. Re:moon terrorists on Scientists Witness Meteor Strike on the Moon · · Score: 1

    It happened on November 7th, but maybe it was November 5th on the Lunar calendar? Remember the Guy! (400th anniversary.)

  23. Re:must get new lenses on Grokster Launches Fear Campaign · · Score: 1

    Close, ev1 is short for Evil One. As for servers, well, it's a cookbook.

  24. Re:Won't you be my neighbor on Grokster Launches Fear Campaign · · Score: 5, Funny

    Your lawyer neighbour probably leaves his wireless slightly open so that he can plausably deny that it was him that downloaded all the XXXXX slasher kitty pr0n. "My router was open, it must have been that darn quokkapox next door."

  25. Re:Walmart-Google PC on Google PC to Hit Walmart? · · Score: 4, Insightful

    Well, so much for "Don't be evil".
