  1. Re:A friend of mine drove this car. on Fuel Cell Car Goes Cross-Country · · Score: 1

    that should read back "seat"..

  2. A friend of mine drove this car. on Fuel Cell Car Goes Cross-Country · · Score: 1

    While he was driving it the fuel processor controller crashed and the car came to a halt. The German DC engineer sitting in the back seek then had him follow a ignition key sequence to reboot it.

  3. Re:Safety? on Fuel Cell Car Goes Cross-Country · · Score: 3, Informative

    This car didn't store H2 onboard. It used a fuel processor that reformed methanol into H2 on demand and was immediately consumed by the fuel cell stack.

  4. This is easy on Making Your Headphones Wireless? · · Score: 2, Funny

    Put on your headphones without plugging them in and turn your speakers up really loud.

  5. Re:Klaatu Barada Nikto, Assholes! on The Wired Top Twenty Sci-Fi Movies · · Score: 1

    You're damn straight!! How they could rate one of the worst movies ever made, "Planet of the Apes", above "The Day the Earth Stood Still" is too much.

  6. Shouting... on Michael Smith Leaves Core · · Score: 1

    Smith complains that whoever shouts the loudest wins. His parting shot has him "shouting" by quitting and airing his dirty laundry in public. In this effort he displays little class and I'd say the core team will be much better off without him. The strengths of FreeBSD are due mostly to the core team concept. There is no requirement for it to be fun. If you don't like doing it, then move on graciously.

  7. Hmmmm... on Remote Controlled Rats · · Score: 1

    Isn't Cheney already using this technology on GW, Powell and RumsFeld?

  8. BATTLE RATS!!!!!!! on Remote Controlled Rats · · Score: 1

    See you on TNT!!

  9. Re:This is awesome! on Gateway as Content Distributor? · · Score: 1
  10. Why not ask other agencies? on Recommendations for Third Party Security Audits? · · Score: 4, Insightful

    Perhaps other agencies within your state might already have someone doing this. This someone could come up with recommendations that could be used across the board. Plus it might make writing the contract easier.

    Wait.. What am I saying? This is government; agencies don't work together. Nevermind...

  11. Boneless chicken? on Chickens Hatch Aboard Chinese Space Module · · Score: 1

    I think they're trying to create boneless chickens by taking advantage of the loss of bone mass in space.

  12. Re:Peter Norton ... on Viruses: More Hype than Danger? · · Score: 1

    Yes, I too have been boycotting Slashdot for the past year.

  13. New Millenium? on Human-Computer Interaction in the New Millenium · · Score: 1

    I just hope in the new millennium we all learn how to spell it.

  14. That's easy... on Seeking Multi-Platform I/O Libraries? · · Score: 1

    FORTRAN 95.

  15. Hey, them's fightin' words!!!! on Apple Deals with Devil, Communists · · Score: 3, Funny

    Apparently the Darwin OS is not the original creation of Apple Computers but is instead based off of an older, obsolete OS called "BSD Unix".

    Grrrrrr!!!!!!!!

  16. Re:One reason I love Opera on Don't Hit That Back Button · · Score: 1

    I've found that the Opera backbutton doesn't work with www.cnn.com.

  17. Re:Oops! on Rare Earth · · Score: 1

    Me too. I saw them at California Jam in 1974 Those guy's sucked.

  18. Trinitite on Rare Earth · · Score: 1

    It's called Trinitite and you can still see some down at the test site at White Sands under a protective enclosure. You can also find some on the ground although it's getting more difficult. They ask you not to pick it up but you still see people doing it. The site is open first Saturday of October/April.

  19. An awful lot of trouble on Do-it-yourself CPU Water Cooler · · Score: 1

    to go from .950GHz to 1GHz. Why not just blow $38.00 and buy a 1GHz CPU? Geez, and what a bodge!! The damn pump would only run for 10 minutes.

  20. Re:Possible Nuclear Test Ban Violations? on ASCI White Detonates The First E-Bomb · · Score: 1

    We have all the data collected since we started testing. What we didn't have we got from Wen Ho Lee's trash.

  21. Satan's spawn on Gigantic Bugs in Southern California · · Score: 3, Informative

    There's nothing new here as these are known as Potato Bugs. They're also the most repulsive and disgusting creatures on the planet. Checkout www.potatobugs.com

  22. This should read "Cracking down" on Feds Cracking the Whip on Spammers · · Score: 2, Insightful

    "Cracking the whip" means to work harder, as in produce more spam.

  23. Re:Cool Idea but does that guy wear anything else? on Segway Hits the Auction Block · · Score: 1

    Yeah, at least some of those black turtlenecks like that guy who makes cartoons...

  24. Re:Drinkable? (tangent) on Consumer Hydrogen Fuel Cells · · Score: 1

    If you are using "pure" H2 on the anode, then yes, it's drinkable. If it was H2 reformed from methanol I wouldn't do it.

    At one time I was going to brew a batch of beer from FC effluent but never got around to it. We had a 10kW system that spewed a fair amount of water.

  25. Re:NOT dangerous.. on Consumer Hydrogen Fuel Cells · · Score: 1

    Not dangerous, huh? Tell that to the families of Challenger's crew.
