    Get your ass to Mars, Lars.
    And get yourself free.

  2. Eat your broccoli.

    They're both Springfield.

  4. I'll be back... on Vivaldi 1.10 Released (vivaldi.com) · · Score: 1

    Vivaldi was a famous composer 1703-1741.

  8. Re:The museum of failure? on Museum of Failure Opens In Sweden (failuremag.com) · · Score: 1

    I approached quite a few innovation directors and asked them for examples of failure that they've learned from. I thought it would be easy to get them to collaborate but none of them -- zero -- choose to cooperate.

    So the Museum of Failure is a failure.

  9. disrupting "work" and "compensation"!

  10. THIS is what got Sloot (and Kramer) killed on Ask Slashdot: What Is Your View On Sloot Compression? (youtube.com) · · Score: 1

    If you have "video compression" that can procedureally generate any video, you can also generate any secret document from anywhere, ever. That makes some people nervous.

    Of course, they miss the point that you also can generate a magnitude more garbage. The hard part is discerning wheat from the chaff. Given a sufficiently advanced AI, this becomes trivial. Yeah, you see what I did there.

  16. YO DAWG, I heard you like mining bitcoin... on Bitcoin Price Hits Fresh Record High Above $2,200 (cnbc.com) · · Score: 1

    I believe bitcoin has value when someone actually expends the effort to find that legendary harddrive with a cache of 7500 bitcoins that got thrown out by accident.

    Literally mining a pile of garbage to recover old-growth, early sequence bitcoins.

  17. Soylent brown is BUGS! BUUUUUUGGGGSSS! on Where Have All the Insects Gone? (sciencemag.org) · · Score: 1
