  1. Re:already a dinosaur? on Final Fantasy Movie Trailers · · Score: 1

    And of course, the BBC has already come out with a brilliant documentary on dinosaurs, featuring a clever blend of CGI & puppeteering.

    http://www.bbc.co.uk/dinosaurs

    It's not how much crap you create with the tools, it's how you balance them out to get quality results. TheBench.org, anyone?

  2. Re:Dogs on Glow-in-the-dark Christmas Trees · · Score: 1

    That would be cool. What I wouldn't have done for a dog that did that when I was growing up.

    Just think what we're likely to be telling our children and grandchildren in 50 years or so -

    "In my day, dogs didn't poo glow-in-the-dark."
    "No, we didn't have glow-in-the-dark velociraptors either."
    "No, Michael Jackson always looked that way. He just didn't glow."

    Etc...

  3. Eek. on Software to Predict "Troubled Youths" · · Score: 1

    Reminds me of an Issac Asimov short story about the MultiVac computer which could output what crimes were likely to be committed daily from assimilating data (simliar to what Mosaic2000 proposes) from personal profiles of all the people in the world. That way the crimes could be stopped before they were even conceived.

    Asimov put a good twist in at the end of that one, though. ;-)

  4. Re:Another one bites the dust on Thumb Keyboard For PalmPilot · · Score: 1

    The Gadgeteer is meant to have some info on ThumbType as well, but it, too, has been /.'d ad infinitum.

    I expect the latter'll be up & running before the former though.

  5. Re:I dunno on Thumb Keyboard For PalmPilot · · Score: 1

    I learned to touchtype out of necessity all of six years ago. I've just switched from my old Pilot 5000 to a PalmV, which has a heavier stylus and makes what used to be really quick, accurate Graffiti on the 5K into a more cumbersome task.

    I guess I'll just get used to it in time though.

  6. Well now. on How Not to Attract Geeks · · Score: 1

    Articles such as theirs should be downloadable as AportisDOC files so we have the criteria on hand and know what kind of girls to go for...

    ....as if.
