  1. Re:Where are the fatherboards? on How Motherboards Are Made · · Score: 1
    There was the SS-50* bus which used molex pins sticking up from the main board and socket connectors on the sub cards. A father board and daughters?

    * SS-50 was used by the 680x side of the first Intel-Motorola Holy Wars.

  2. Assembling zee test mass on Scientists Weigh Smallest Mass Ever · · Score: 1

    When they put together a few zeptograms of xenon atoms, did they use a small tube of Zap-A-Gap and zircon-encrusted tweezers?

  3. Re:I got a better idea. on Microsoft Sues 117 Phishers · · Score: 1

    Sound dangerous to turn people loose with phishion weapons.

    With whales, it's easy to tell. (gross warning)

  5. This is news? on Erotica Found Within Microsoft Office Install · · Score: 3, Informative

    There's a flight sim and a FPS in Excel and Word, and the Leisure Suit Larry knock-off in Outlook. No biggy.

  6. Six against? on U.N. Decides to Shut Down Internet Permanently · · Score: 1

    One of those must have been Nigeria: much of their economy depends on access. Who were the other five?

  8. Re:a related project on Platform-Independent Real-Time Speech Technology · · Score: 1

    I'm working of this idea for sending signals across the galaxy. It involves modulating inhabited planets with a large space station. So far the project is stalled with the problem that the planet modulations tend to be "one shot". Also, the signal is usually received as millions of voices suddenly cried out in terror rather than the pin-drop we were aiming for.

    Don't complain too much. The year they did dupes all day long was worse.

    Oh? I thought it was all the email I was receiving on how to make things larger.

    Strange, so did these people.

    Wait 24 hours then call the FBI with a missing persons report.

    "It happened that a fire broke out backstage in a theater. The clown
    came out to inform the public. They thought it was just a jest and
    applauded. He repeated his warning, they shouted even louder. So I
    think the world will come to an end amid general applause from all the
    wits, who believe that it is a joke.
    If aliens ever invade on April 1st, we are so doomed! (As opposed to serious days like Halloween.)

    phisting

    That's when someone emails pretending to be your bank, asks for your account info, and offers sexual services.

  17. Re:"Spam Kings" is Crap on Spam Kings · · Score: 1
    I'd like to know more about this.

    I imagine that her wishes would extend to comments about a review of a book that she asked not to be in in the first place.

  18. Re:Suitable for shelving next to The DaVinci Code on Spam Kings · · Score: 1

    Put it between the floor and the fridge if it needs leveling and your copy of Dianetics or anything by Stephen R. Doorknobson is wearing out.

  19. Re:I'm in the book on Spam Kings · · Score: 1
    what they said to Mr McWilliams

    And especially what they didn't say to Mr McWilliams, so he filled in the gaps himself.

  20. Re:Favourite Space Game... on In Space No One Can Hear You Sigh · · Score: 1

    SPACE.G200 (1977). The graphics weren't much, but what do you expect from an ASR-33?

  21. Re:You might have screwed yourself posting here on Wordpress Banned by Google for Spamming · · Score: 1
    I hear that all Google's questions can be found on a cheat blog on Wordpress. They've switched tactics and started people-spamming Google HR to get their agents into high Google rank positions.

    (Of course I'm kidding...)

  22. Re:Woohoo! Someone mentioned GEOS!! on GUIs Sorted By Icons · · Score: 1

    When I looked into it, their development package didn't encourage garage developers: Expensive and needed a Sun workstation (more $$$).

  23. The weakness of OSS on PearPC Trying to Sue CherryOS · · Score: 1

    If it was closed source, they could have twiddled the code and chanted "Pear isn't done until Cherry won't run!" (They could probably still do that even with OSS. Maui X-Stream doesn't seem too technical and might miss #ifdef tags in the code.)

  24. Re:Wonder how bad Tiger will punish on Mac OS X "Tiger" Enters Final Candidate Stage · · Score: 1

    Obviously the ape didn't run fast enough in the first place.
