Only if your lights are within 2 feet of an outlet. But, if you did this with all the overhead lights you have in you house (guessing around 12), you could save up to 24 inches of copper wiring, with only a 25% increase in your power needs for those lights.
The local newapaper here mostly consists of AP stories, which are several days behind the internet. The comics page often repeats the same comic over several days, or even in the same day. They also use intresting hyphenation schemes. I dislike hyphenation, but this paper has frequently hyphenated the word "the". Then, when go get to the end of a column, you get a "continued on page B14", when there are only 6 pages in the B section. If you manage to find the continuation, it's often only a couple of lines. Also, they find some articles so intresting that they'll put them in several times, just changing the title in each repeat. This paper is "updating" everything, so the paper is about 1/4 the size it used to be, for a increase in price. And they don't understand why they have lost so many subscribers.
Hay marge, what happened to the beer I put in the fridge? I was just sitting there, doing my business, when the john just suddenly disappeared. Ther were in the underwater aquarium, watching the sharks, when they became involved in a feeding frenzy after the glass partitions ceased partitioning.
I'd like to see the slashdot versions of college textbooks. The stones used to build the pyramids were mined in India and floted down the misisipi river by Napeolian during the crimerian era.
Only threatss against the Demopcratic president are considered a serious threat. With a Republican president, it's OK to write entire books about killing him.
Now I can slap a cell phone onto a bear, to answer the question "Does a bear shit in the woods"! And the corrollary, "Does the pope shit in the woods". I'm sure tha t I can borrow a couple of phones from other intrested parties.
If I go to one of these parties, do I get to throw toast and shoot a water gun? That's all that made that one movie tolerable. Or is this more like that "Plan 9" thing? So bad it's funny. Or will it be like those that start with the pool cleaner knocking on the front door... Please, not like one of those foreign chick flicks that you go to, hoping for something (anything) to happen after the movie is finally over.
Let's hope the Obama Administration is much more skillful than the previous administration.
Right. I can hear it now. Iran: "We are not evil." O'bomma: "The United States is the most evil country that has ever existed. Nobody is more evil than we are, especially you, all because of George Bush."
I once received a magazine subscription offer, from "Time" if I remember correctly, that asked the question, "What would you do if they built a nuclear reactor near Idaho Falls". You probably won't understand why I laughed about this without this link http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Idaho_National_Laboratory, or the quote from that article "INL has 52 reactors, three of which are reportedly still operating". I suspect they are probably underestimating both those numbers. Idaho has a lot of farmers, but also has a lot more tech than most people realize.
How dare you bring an actual scientific response to google! You should, instead, include some of the more responsable slashdot responses: 1. Did it locate the marsian death camps. 2. In soviet mars, the climate cycles you. 3. Imagine a beowulf cluster of these. 4. Profit
They're trying to restore the entire car, and all they have to start with is a turn signal light? And they're looking to replace that! Looks like a lot of remanufacturing will need to occur.
Yay! They'll finally be able to make Christopher Reeves walk again! They've been talking about this for some time since he died, but it soulds like they will finally make this wish come true. Too bad it didn't involve ground up babies like they wanted.
Does anyone have a machine capable of running Multix any more? That was a historically important machine, but I don't think there is any hardware available to run it any more.
Your case shouldn't be your primary ground circuit. Plastic computer cases exist and aren't grounded either. The fact that it isn't grounded isn't what makes this a stupid idea. The fact that cardboard doesn't handle dampness, dirt, insects, etc is what makes this a stupid idea. Coating it with something to protect it, would make it no more recyclable than a plastic case.
Slashdot Mirror
I don't know that!
Aaaaiiiiiieeeeeeeeeeeeeee.....
This is slashdor you insensitive clod! It should be:
I don't know that!
%&#&%#Carrier Lost
Did he really type Carrier Lost. Maybe he was dictating it...

Dr. Tim White of UC Berkeley had been 'sitting' on A. ramidus
Is this something like Clinton wanting to "date" an Aztec mummy?
I'd like to see the slashdot versions of college textbooks.
The stones used to build the pyramids were mined in India and floted down the misisipi river by Napeolian during the crimerian era.
Is this related to the recent article about the government uses of computers?
Only threatss against the Demopcratic president are considered a serious threat. With a Republican president, it's OK to write entire books about killing him.
The normal slashdot reader doesn't bother with the articles, so why should the editors waste their time on something that will never be checked?

Maybe, because no musician wants to be tied to this train wreck?
They might be able to get Bill Clinton to play his with his sax...
Here's the produce that fixes all those problems."
Just shove these carrots into the DVD drive, and plug this lettuce into the USB port, and your problems will go away.
I couldn't get the word 'scientology' out of my head when watching this
I was thinking "Amway"
Is there a difference?
They need to create some of the intresting items from the better science fiction books. Let's create a ringworld, or something intresting like that.

Don't worry, Brock'o bamma has a plan for them. They'll just take a pain killer. Why waste money on such useless people?
Yay! They'll finally be able to make Christopher Reeves walk again!

Or you can pick up several hundred books at one time with a kindle. And just ignore the hate and lies spewed by those who have never even touched one.
These OS's can be run using an emulator (simh for example), and there are sites still running these in production.
