  1. big assumption on Widespread Use of Hydrogen May Hurt Ozone Layer · · Score: 1

  2. duh on Ideas for High School Computer Club Activities? · · Score: 1

  3. Re:Holy Christ on A Shocking Controller For The Xbox · · Score: 4, Informative

    Actually, even a tiny static discharge after rubbing your feet on a carpet can hae a potential difference of up to 20,000 volts. The current is just so low that it's harmless. This is the same thing. Haven't you ever played with a Van de Graaff genetator?

    Don't knock it unless you have the first clue about electricity. Go take Physics 101.

  4. Re:too bad on Build Your Own Computer · · Score: 1

    wrong, Intel donated a Pentium 2 fab to the University of Illinois. Hypothetically speaking, you could make your own pentium class 32-bit processor, but the issue is that it would require many man-years of design work unless you copied other designs. I'ts not worth the effort when you could just go work for intel and be doing something productivive.

  5. Re:too bad on Build Your Own Computer · · Score: 1

    if it won't even run a linux 2.2 console, why bother?

  6. too bad on Build Your Own Computer · · Score: -1, Redundant

    if you make your own CPU, it will cost more and suck compared to a $92 Athlon XP 2500+ (barton) that is, unless you're taking advantage of free university resources. Even then it's not worth the trouble.

  8. Not only is the method idiotic and broken... on Study on Internet Censorship in Germany · · Score: 2, Insightful

    ...But the cause is idiotic as well Censorship never accomplished anything of value except perhaps limiting little boys' access to likenesses of the human body, if you see that as valuable, and stopping reporters from giving out so much information about troops that the enemy starts watching CNN for combat intelligence. Everything else that censorship has done was destructive.

  9. Re:What this patent is. on Microsoft Patents Interactive Entertainment · · Score: 4, Informative

    porn websites have been doing that years and years before Micro$haft ever thought of it or filed the patent.

    honestly, what kind of kid 12+ actually WANTS to spend time with his parents?

  13. Re:It's pulling AN SCO on Online Auction Industry In A State Of Limbo · · Score: 3, Informative

    SCO is a bunch of IP-weilding terrorists.

  22. Re:nucular??? on Nucular Hydrogen Economy · · Score: 1

    No, the reason is that the slashdot editors are either on vacation or plastered 24/7. They obviously don't bother to skim articles for typos, or even run it through a spellchecker on their favorite word processing program.
