How many people today are already vaccinated against smallpox. If smallpox was realeased and an epidemic started, how quickly could new supplies be manufactured.
All you need to do is take the thing back the next day and demand a refund.
Say that when you tried to play it the DVD was already dead. How can they prove the air seal hadn't failed already or the disk was faulty due to a manufacturing defect.
We need to get a cinema full of Slashdotters to go and take the remote control for their telly with them. When the usher comes in with the goggles everyone should descretly flash them with the IR beam.
Their reaction would probably be more entertaining than the film itself.
Yes, excellant point. Of course this could also include the elderly if they could get over their technophobia and love of the free supermarket bus (if it goes their way.)
The other solution used by many students is to go together and get a taxi back. If the distance is short enough ( and it usually is ) the cost is not too high, and it will certainly beat the cost of running a car.
My favorate excuse heard on the british train system for delayed trains is "exploding pigeons".
Apparently London Kingscross Thameslink stations overhead lines are very close to the roof and a pigeon flying between the roof and the lines can shorten the gap just enough for the electricity to arc across the gap.
I remember my folks telling me about when they couldn't afford a fridge and so had to keep the milk in a bucket of water with a tea towel over it. Same principle.

You can type in the barcode when it fails to scan. I'm not doing it.

I don't know what all the fuss is about, I've taken 127.0.0.1 with me wherever I go for years ;)
I only posted this for the karma
Unfortunately it only works with black light.

Its called USB my friend. If you're still confused look at a modern Mac.
I feel sorry for the person whos number that is. You just know that all german Slashdotters will be dialling that now.
Wow moderators don't even bother checking the links, there's a suprise :)

Oh great, a load of Slashdotters turning up. I can just imagine the poor guides when they ask the obligatory "Does anyone have any questions?".
Also they had better rope off the area properly or for some reason the machine will print out "Visit my 1337 site goatse" or "First Post" constantly.

Will you be viewing Starwars 1-6 or 3-6 followed by 1-3. Or Will you just skip 1-3 altogether :)
(I'm assuming 3 will be bad)
You do know that you are seriously going to confuse the aliens when you put stonehenge in the southern hemisphere.
Well he's not getting the TV.
Its nearly as bright as a Florida tourists shirt and about as far as you need to drive when you want to cross the street to the next shop.
Criminals have already tried removing their fingerprints already.
The resulting lack of fingerprints and scaring is actually more distinctive than the criminals original fingerprints.
Ah ha! a fellow Billey Connolley fan.
It certainly is if you travel first class.
A quick search on National Rail shows the standard first class fare is 267.00 GBP (~ 491.55 USD)
FYI Other fares:
Saver Return (But has some travel restrictions) 87.10 UKP (~ 160.35 USD)
Standard Open Return 186.00 UKP (~342.43 USD)
Cheaper fares are available but are a pain in the ar^H^H^H^H^H^H to get.

Just don't dig your way in. They might not be too pleased.

This could be good for Cricket, a game where nothing happens for hours and hours and hours on end.
Even more important, do they use the k or g prefix. I can't wait for kgword to to come out :)
1.21 GW no problem, you just need one of these. More here.
