  1. I've seen this... on iPhone Takes Screenshots of Everything You Do · · Score: 3, Interesting

    I had a glitch occur that put one of these screen shots in my photos collection. I was wondering what kind of glitch would have generated a screenshot. Now that is partially explained.

  2. Even Older News (Re:Old News) on G.I. Joe No Longer the Real American Hero? · · Score: 1

    In the 70's GI Joe, partly due to the Vietnam War era zeitgeist, was recast in the same way as the head of a non-descript "Adventure Team"

  3. Re:If I've pever played Zelda.... on Legend of Zelda - Twilight Princess Review · · Score: 1

    oops...I'm having typing trouble today....

  4. If I've pever played Zelda.... on Legend of Zelda - Twilight Princess Review · · Score: 1

    ...which game would be a good place to start? I'm curious if there ii/are one or more titles that would be good as an introduction?

  5. What do you want? on Original Star Wars on DVD... Sorta · · Score: 1

    I am fan of Star Wars...especially the first film released...and I hate these whiners who will never be happy with whatever they get...If you want the "original" then you need to get the film reels and appropriate projector...and maybe a theater & screen circa 1977...

  6. Re:Surprised? Are u kidding.. on MGM to Produce "The Hobbit" · · Score: 1

    exactly...the real question is when do we get the Silmarillion Epic television series?

  7. Re:lets bring this exhibit to Boston! on Celebrating Puzzles · · Score: 1

    Gereat Idea! ...I'll do that!

  8. perplexing on Is Distributed Computing Being Distributed Badly? · · Score: 1

    my spare cycles go to this worthy endeavor: http://www.13thlabour.tk/

  9. Re:KILL THE BIONICLES!!!! on Lego Mindstorms: What Went Wrong? · · Score: 1

    No way...My kids (9 & 6) have taken a liking to Bionicles...what do they do with them? The first build the figure EXACTLY as the iunstructions detail (personally I think this is a very good educational excercise)...about 2 minutes after they are done they are dis-assmbling their figure and using those pieces in exactly the same way all the old-timers here are reminiscing about...They build their own fantastic universe of animals, spaceships, whatever...I have no problem with buying more Bionicle pieces for my kids' imaginitive plkay.

  10. Re:Who decides what is popular? on Apple iTunes to End Flat Fee Pricing? · · Score: 1

    frankly i am looking forward to the possibility of all of the music I would download being less expensive...I doubt that Opeth and Dream Theater are going to be in the "popular" category ;)

  11. All Live Music Could Be Found There on EZTree Shuts Down · · Score: 1

    FWIW, as a (former) heavy user of EZT I can truthfully say that any music you can imaginre was available there: Classical (I d/l'ed a John Williams (not the composer) Guitar Concerto the other day), Jazz (Diana Krall was a frequent find), new rock (name the band, they were there QOTSA, A Perfect Circle, Wilco, ...) Old Metal (Black Sabbath), Prog Metal, punk, fusion, Ethno (Shankar!), .... this site will sorely be missed amongst the live music collectors.

  12. Invoca on A Voice-Controlled TV Remote · · Score: 1

    http://search.ebay.com/invoca_W0QQfkrZ1QQ

    I tried one of these a while back...it was junk....unless this new device uses reasonable technology and a well-thought out ser interface it will be junk too.

  13. I'm going to save my money... on Benioff and Weiss To Write Ender's Game Script · · Score: 1

    ...for the Guns 'n' Roses "Chinese Democracy" CD ;-)

  14. Quad Mac on Apple's Dev. Tools Hint @ Dual-core G5 & Quad Mac · · Score: 5, Funny

    ...will they call it a Quadra? ;)

  15. Boston University on Nanoscale Switches in Memory · · Score: 2, Informative

    sorry to nitpick but its "Boston University" not "the University of Boston"

    BU Alum '84

  16. Re:Hack the Leap Pad on Nintendo Pokemon Mini LCD Game Hacked · · Score: 1

    our cartridge connector is wearing too.. Also the connections to the pen appear to be going due to excessive twirling of the pen by its wire (that IS what 4-7 year old's dio afterall)

    A hack would be great of this device. I'm going to poke around abit and see if anyone has commented on this elswhere.

  17. Re:Release date? on GitS Sequel and Appleseed Remake Are Coming · · Score: 1

    but didn't the fansubs of season 1 stop after episode 21 or 22 because it became licensed? or did i just miss them?

  18. This is what Hollywood is good at... on The Matrix Trailers, Reloaded and Re-Encoded · · Score: 4, Insightful

    ...creating trailers. They have become masters of great-looking, action-packed 30 to 60-second spots for movies that are generally pretty poor.

  19. Re:What I would like. on Review: Oritron NPD3117 Networked DVD Player · · Score: 1

    I think the Telly from Interact might do this (http://www.interact-tv.com/products.php)

    Discussed earlier here:
    http://slashdot.org/article.pl?sid=03/07/16 /008235 &mode=thread&tid=129&tid=188

    I'm seriously considering buying one of these even at the hefty $900 price.

    I'd like to see some more up to date feedback on this

  20. Another Plug for Boston...The Big Dig! on A Geek's Tour Of North America? · · Score: 1

    If you're into mega-construction it doesn't get any bigger than the Big Dig in Boston. They used to do tours but now that a large part of the project is open to traffic, I'm not sure they do anymore.
