    Gold-pressed tungsten? Sounds like something from Star Trek if you ask me.

  2. DDoS on Bitcoin Protocol Vulnerability Could Lead To a Collapse · · Score: 1

    At the moment it seems DDoS is a bigger problem for things related to bitcoin, such as coinchat.org, inputs.io, etc.

    "Stay Awhile and Listen"

    I'm sorry but "awhile" is not a word. Surely you mean "a while".

    Wanted to give +funny mod but couldn't because I already posted comments.

    +Funny mods should always be allowed since they don't affect karma.

    Except this time it's an ARM CPU, it has standard connectors, it's dirt cheap and it will have a colour and widescreen display with this project.

    You're right, it's totally the same!

  9. Re:HDMIPi? Come on! on Project Seeks To Build Inexpensive 9-inch Monitor For Raspberry Pi · · Score: 1

    If they want people to pronounce it "HD my Pi" they should call it "HDmiPi" or "HDmyPi", not "HDMIPi" which people will read as "HDMI-Pi". Sorry about all the "quotes" in my "reply".

    "lasers".

    Are you seriously comparing IRQ/DMA-driven DACs with the audio processors of Amiga computers? They're not even close. If you want a fair comparison, you need to use the GF1 of the Gravis Ultrasound, which was leaps and bounds better than the Amiga.

  16. Re:And this is why... on Comcast Donates Heavily To Defeat Mayor Who Is Bringing Gigabit Fiber To Seattle · · Score: 5, Insightful

    Lobbying used to be called bribery. Funds for campaigns should be taken from the city/state/country funds, in equal parts for all candidates.

  21. Re:Unfeasible on UN Mounts Asteroid Defense Plan Following Chelyabinsk Meteor · · Score: 1

    A few countries were able to work together to put a science station in orbit for the sake of scientific experiments, I think protecting the future of mankind is important enough that even more countries would help in any way they can to support this ADP.

    But using LCDs from older cellphones would be a good idea to reduce price, help promote the "hacking" spirit (i.e. hacking as in SparkFun and Adafruit, not as in black hats who target banks) and be more ecological by re-using older technology. BYOLCDP*.
