  2. Yawn on We're Safe From the Latest SARS-Like Disease...For the Moment · · Score: -1

    We all know flu shots are just a way to put money in the medical communities pocket. My worst illnesses immediately followed getting the Flu Mist while in the Military. Eventually I realized if I said I was "Allergic" they would waive me from it generally without question. There is not a chance in hell of me EVER taking ANY flu shot or mist again.

    To be fair, my computer now has ninety times more memory than it did 9 years ago. well that may not be true, but Lynx is not invulnerable to malware, it is just not worth exploiting.

  16. Re:But did they use a GREEN crayon? on River City Ransom: How an NES Classic Returned 20 Years On · · Score: 2

    First paragraph from TFA: "In a way, this was what the brothers were always meant to do. They coded their first game aged six; as a kid, Dustin would post crayon drawings of game designs to Atari (which always politely rejected them). Decades later both were still working in games, Dustin as a freelance sound designer with credits on hits including Halo 4, BioShock and Battlefield."

  20. Re:Why bother with a radar / laser jammer? on Atlanta Man Shatters Coast-to-Coast Driving Record, Averaging 98MPH · · Score: 0

    Just feed the receiver with the right frequency to tell it how fast you want it to read. Imagine the look on the cop's face when you scream by at 100+ and the gun reads "55".

    They don't need the radar gun reading to ticket you for speeding - if you ever go to court, you'll find that all police claim to be "trained in visual speed observation", and will back up the radar evidence with their professional judgement of how fast you were going. And the judge will accept their estimate because they have the training to show that they can make accurate estimates.

    absolutely not true.
