  1. Re:per square foot or square meter? on Space Food From Space Farms · · Score: 1

    So, you're saying that the Russians, and Euro's by using Metric don't really know how big the sizes are? Oh, oh; this is not good.

  2. Re:Sounds promising on Syrian Gov't Agrees To Russian Chem-Weapon Turnover Plan · · Score: 1

    I believe that if one listens clearly, that the general that did the dirty deed will be fired, maybe Sirian style? Basically, Assad threw one of his generals under the bus. Which means Assad gets to keep his air force and artillery just a little bit longer.

    I can't help but wonder if the bears at Port Tartus have good enough, and enough gas masks just in case a siren sounds?

  3. Re:proving parent right... on Indiana Man Gets 8 Months For Teaching How To Beat Polygraph Tests · · Score: 2

    Maybe have him take a lie detector test to prove his innocence?

  4. Re:Hell hath no fury .. on Indiana Man Gets 8 Months For Teaching How To Beat Polygraph Tests · · Score: 1

    So if I lie about getting a job, I can blame someone that taught me something; and that person is held responsible? My engrish teacher should start sweating right about now.

  5. Re:AMERIKAN GULAG! on Indiana Man Gets 8 Months For Teaching How To Beat Polygraph Tests · · Score: 2

    Lets see if I understand correctly. This dude says to his clients that they can't tell others what they have learned from this guy? Then how does this apply to other businesses that say the same thing about their product? Shouldn't they be going to jail also?

  6. Re:Great for presenting, not for creating. on Elon Musk Shows His Vision of Holographic Design Technology · · Score: 1

    Interesting, my thoughts were around the idea of tracking the eyes, as the person describes stuff. Interfaced to Blender3D, with several types of mechanical engineering analysis packages applied to the object to be designed, and something like Siri with the Keyboard?

  7. Re:Nothing special on Elon Musk Shows His Vision of Holographic Design Technology · · Score: 1

    Does an open source version of this exist yet?

  8. Re:This is a video game not real engineering on Elon Musk Shows His Vision of Holographic Design Technology · · Score: 1

    I don't think he catering to the knowledge base, but to our grand parents. When issues are reduced down to engineering issues, mechanics issues are next to solve. Then finally, the pay check? (I hope this time.)

  9. Re:Great for presenting, not for creating. on Elon Musk Shows His Vision of Holographic Design Technology · · Score: 2

    So, how would you do it better?

  10. Re:He needs to learn from Jobs on Elon Musk Shows His Vision of Holographic Design Technology · · Score: 1

    From what I've seen of Elon's work, he hasn't invented anything at all; just put multiple pieces of off the shelf technologies together. Now if Elon wants to add some spice to this bowl of chili, then maybe also bring in manufacturing by industrial 3d printers, and energy from renewable sources. I'd watch this roman circus on pay per view.

  11. Elon Musk vs DC and Marvel?! on Elon Musk Shows His Vision of Holographic Design Technology · · Score: 1

    Elon, these story tellers go to extreme lengths to invent characters that are impossible, mostly, to actually duplicate. Now You are going "Iron Man" on Them. These publishers covet their readers, and You are taking the food out of their mouths.

  12. SGT, Clean This Mess Up on Ask Slashdot: How Do You Fight Usage Caps? · · Score: 1

    Use this ISP if you need to. Otherwise, "Google" it.

  13. Re:Keep the Distraction Machine Running on US Intercepts Iranian Order For Attack On US Embassy In Iraq · · Score: 1

    And in a unrelated news story, "today is friday."

  14. Re:Irony on Drone Hunters Lining Up and Paying Out In Colorado · · Score: 1

    In the pure interest of tree hugging, wouldn't draining the fuel into a container to put a little in the gas tank sometimes be a useful idea?

  15. Re:Irony on Drone Hunters Lining Up and Paying Out In Colorado · · Score: 4, Funny

    Considering the size of the drone, driving through town with one tied on the hood could be problematic.

  16. Re:This is Like Obama Care on Prankster Calls NSA To Restore Deleted E-mail · · Score: 1

    Sad, another AC without a clue. Maybe if these AC's think this dribble, then maybe they may find their solution to be benefical to everyone?

  17. This is Like Obama Care on Prankster Calls NSA To Restore Deleted E-mail · · Score: 1

    When Obama Care kicks in full speed, I can drop my health insurance and pay the $360 health care tax. So since the NAS wants to save my emails to mom; why can't those folks in the Aloha State have a public page to allow me to aceess my emails, under the Freedom Of Information Act? The NSA couild turn this Snoden event in to a PR campain that states, "hay! we'ere the good guys, and we can help you out!"

    Instead the NSA acts like theyr'e selling an airplane ticket?

  18. Let Me See If I Understand This on Feds Seek Prison For Man Who Taught How To Beat a Polygraph · · Score: 1

    The Good Guys/Gals don't have any better way of finding out who the bad guys/gals are?

    Ya, right.

  19. An Earth Projection? on Curiosity Goes Autonomous For the First Time · · Score: 1

    Maybe we could use this in our cars?

  20. This Begs the Question on The Golden Gate Barrage: New Ideas To Counter Sea Level Rise · · Score: 1, Interesting

    Which is cheaper, the Space Elevator or building dams and pumping stations using fossil fuels?

  21. Maybe Something More Traditional? on Why the Japanese Government Should Take Over the Fukushima Nuclear Plant · · Score: 1

    Have those who made the decision to build this global minimum spec engineered nightmare to publicly remove a finger?

  22. Re:Zombie food? on Mini-Brains Grown In the Lab · · Score: 1

    "Would you like a side of McSynth-Brains(TM) for your friends coming up to the window?"

  23. Re:Ethical implications on Mini-Brains Grown In the Lab · · Score: 1

    Does this apply to the aborted stem cell running for re-election in Kentucky?

  24. lets hope Bob doesn't have a peanut allergy?

  25. Re:someone's gotta start the show on Silicon Valley's Loony Cheerleading Culture Is Out of Control · · Score: 1

    Sometimes those buried in the graveyard are dug up and brought back to life; QEMM comes to mind. Maybe m$ could patent zombie ideas?
