  1. Re:caffene crash is great on Provigil Extends Your Day? · · Score: 1

    Sign up for the Green Berets. I don't know about nowadays, but in the halycon days of yore, they supposedly handed out some great stimulants.

  2. Re:sad on ASCI White Detonates The First E-Bomb · · Score: 1

    Uh, the whole point of using a weapon is to cause harm. If you mean posioning and radiation, there are variants and techniques for using nukes that leave little fallout and background radiation... after the inital blast of course.

    I want to see an ISS experiment where they see how Fluffy's desire to always land on his feet translates to a free-fall enviornment.

  4. Aint it cool = don't it suck on Attack of the Clones Leaked · · Score: 1, Flamebait

    I don't think Ain't It Cool has ever posted a review of anything, just the usual fanboy slobbering.

  5. First Use Policy on U.S. Works Up Plans for Using Nuclear Arms · · Score: 1

    NATO had a 'first use' policy on nuclear weapons for [i]thirty years[/i]. How is this anything new?

  6. I'm shocked. Really. on U.S. Works Up Plans for Using Nuclear Arms · · Score: 1

    I'm stunned to realize that the US Military has drawn up plans to use nuclear weapons if so directed by NCA. Shocking, I tell you.

    Next you'll be telling me we have contingency plans for invading Mexico and Canada. Oh wait, we do...

    Christ, Steve Jobs is the guy who thought the Volkswagon Bug was a triumph of engineering not marketing.

    He's running Apple right back into the ground.

  12. Jeez, there's some scary stuff out there on Battlefield Lasers · · Score: 1

    Check out this link and go to the 'opticals' section for some laser stuff. An M-16 mounted version to blind people?

    Man, google can turn up some freaky stuff.

  13. Re:This raises some frightening questions on Battlefield Lasers · · Score: 1

    Of course, the US Army trains, manufacutures, and stockpiles these weapons. It's okay see, because they're intended for use against optics... not the guy looking through them.

    A link to the Bradley Stingray.

    Here's another.

  14. Re:Also under development: on Battlefield Lasers · · Score: 1

    Sigh. The mirror misconception rears it's ugly head again.

    If the laser is powerful enough to destroy an artillery shell in flight, making it shiny won't do a damn bit of good. Packing a diamond backed mirror on it would make it too heavy.

    Basic physics classes are down the hall and to your left.

  15. Fox Sports on Genetically-Engineered Super-Athletes? · · Score: 1

    I'm sure Fox Sports is going to use the Bionic Man sound effect during any slow-mo replays involving engineered players.

    Nobody has the right to yell "Fire!" in a crowded theater, though.

  18. Re:Rampant speculation is a good thing on Another Plane Down in New York · · Score: 1

    Firing off a Stinger would definitley attract some attention. Even in New York people would notice an object going trans-sonic at 9am.

    Yeah, but it might discourage the squids who like to blow by me in packs of 20 at 140mph on the Meadowbrook at 2am.

    The thought of one of those morons rear-ending me with a 50mph speed differential next to a slotted wooden road divider gives me nightmares.

  22. Re:Amen on Dump Broadband, Dig Out Your Modem! · · Score: 1

    Ah, the Ninja 250. I remember mine. Quite a bit of bang for the buck, and remarkably quick, even when you weigh 225lbs. When it got to the point that my protective gear (heated vest, gloves, aerostitch suit, flip-up helmet, etc...) cost more than my bike, I traded on up to a CBR600 and some hardbags.

    I learned a lot from the motorcycle course and by riding the Ninja for a long time before I got a larger bike.

    Personally, I think the policy that lets anyone who passed the motorcylce lisence test go out and buy a Hayabusa is insane. Most countries force you to ride a 250cc (or even a 125cc!) bike for a year before you can get the larger bikes.
