  1. Re:I made one of Halifax NS on Ordnance Survey Creates Minecraft Model of Great Britain · · Score: 1

    It's actually 50:1 scale

  2. In other words... on Writing Documentation: Teach, Don't Tell · · Score: 1, Redundant

    ...the author doesn't understand what documentation is supposed to be used for.

  3. Re:The Onion said it best on Qualcomm Says Eight-Core Processors Are Dumb · · Score: 1

    No, it takes like two minutes for me if I'm being extra careful. I have a goatee which admittedly cuts down on the area a bit, but not THAT much. I also use feather blades, which are the sharpest you can get.

    I can do my head in about 10 minutes if I hit it with the clippers first.

  4. Re:I know the government loves to lie to us... on Obamacare Software Glitch Will Limit Penalties Charged To Smokers · · Score: 1

    The programmers are the lowest bidders, governments are the lowest common denominators... easy mistake to make.

  5. Re:$20 million dollar tax incentive on Server Farms Flourish In Iowa: Microsoft Plows $700M More Into Des Moines · · Score: 2

    No, it's a completely idiotic point.

    It's $20M in taxes that they wouldn't have seen anyhow if the datacenter was built in another state. But the state gains from all the income, sales, property, etc. taxes that the employees pay.

    No matter how big the tax break, it's ALWAYS a net gain to the tax base.

  6. Re: Legal drug? on The Trajectory of Television: A Big History of the Small Screen. · · Score: 2

    I'm pretty sure we're all experts on pornography already.

  8. Re:Well it's good to see on NSA Building $860 Million Data Center In Maryland · · Score: 1

    You can extrapolate every conceivable point in every conceivable universe from the brownian motion in a very hot cup of tea, restoring the Internet should be trivial; although it may not be quite as you left it.

  9. Re:Have solution. Alas, subject line = too small on Banker Offers $1M To Solve Beal Conjecture · · Score: 4, Funny

    I suspect you are correct, but a proof remains elusive.

  10. Re:Looks like a cross between on Microsoft Unveils Xbox One · · Score: 4, Insightful

    Those goofy vent things on the top will be a dusty wreck in about a month.

  11. When magnets are outlawed... on Six Retailers Announce Recall of Buckyballs and Buckycubes · · Score: 1

    ...only outlaws will have magnets.

    And Idapimp.

  13. Re:... another low? on Pepsi To Release New Breakfast Mountain Dew · · Score: 2

    It couldn't truly be considered a standard if Microsoft didn't ignore it.

  14. Re:No, not OK! on 64GB MS Surface Pro Only Has 23GB of Free Space · · Score: 1

    Lol. My kingdom for a mod point...

    So does your mom!

  17. Re:Perpetual licenses on FCC Moving To Launch Dynamic Spectrum Sharing · · Score: 1

    It should be an upfront cost (auction), that buys you in for 5 years. 6th year is 20% of the original sum, 7th @ 40%, etc... increasing by 20% a year until they either surrender the allocation and walk away, or allow it to go back up for auction where they can bid on a new term.

  18. Re:What the hell would you do with these frequenci on FCC Moving To Launch Dynamic Spectrum Sharing · · Score: 1

    Something along the lines of over promise and under deliver...

  19. Re:hunting? on Activists' Drone Shot Out of the Sky For Fourth Time · · Score: 5, Insightful

    EVERYTHING is tasty wrapped in bacon and fried in butter.

  20. Re:Bacon! on Man Pays For Cross-Country Trip Using Bacon As Currency · · Score: 5, Funny

    Bacoin?

  21. Re:It's always been possible on New Flat Lens Focuses Without Distortion · · Score: 1

    So what you're suggesting is beer?

  22. Re:That's an easy one on Ask Slashdot: What Are the Implications of Finding the Higgs Boson? · · Score: 1

    It'll be the Higgs field polarity inverter.

  23. Already tainted on Committee Lowers Nobel Prize Award · · Score: 3, Insightful

    It's value was lowered by a lot more than that when Obama won it.
