  1. Re:Power line emissions on During Blackout, Ham Radio Shined · · Score: 1

    You'll note however, that while we have lightbulbs in every room, and generators and batteries to run them available in almost any store, you can still easily purchse candles.

  2. Re:Sounds like.. on Home Biomass Power Generators · · Score: 1

    What is the world comming to when a Monty Python joke beats the obvious Mr. Fusion joke?

  3. I'm scared on Evangelion Live Action Movie · · Score: 1

    But Since Lorde of the Rings looked pretty good, maybe they won't screw it up.

    Unless the guy is making less money than you, then go ahead and tell the cops with an annonymous tip that someone is trafficing child porn from their computer.

    I believe that they have to check on things like that.b

  5. Re:..when cartoons weren't advertisements on The Disappearance of Saturday Morning · · Score: 1

    I know what you are talking about. I saw an episode of an old Mega Man cartoon. Mega Man would aim his blaster, then suddenly he was standing on an unconscience Cut Man. It made no sense what so ever.

  6. Re:I remember saturday mornings on The Disappearance of Saturday Morning · · Score: 1
    I think the "death" of Sat. Morning Cartoons is due to the 24 hour cartoon stations

    No, saturday morning died before the cartoon channels came around.

    I blame it all on the fact that they all played out and nobody wanted to make a new series. I mean, after a while, the turtles started to get silly when they tried to get new ideas for the show. And how many times can the Power Rangers find some secret ancient giant robot hidden in a cave somewhere on earth?

  7. Re:OT About London on Wireless Computing and Airplanes? · · Score: 1
    Women were always allowed to carry on a bag, and their purse.

    If anybody ever gave me trouble, I'd say this is my carry on, and this is my man purse.

    Why, what's the point of doing it.

    Do they throw you a party when you join the W3C club?

    I've never understood what the big point is. Google works right? It is displayed how they want it to be, it performs like it is supposed to.

    Why add extra crap to it.

    Tell me about it.

    My only tech problem used to be trying to crimp patch cables, now I have to worry about reading slashdot right.

  10. Re:Rich people can afford things shocker! on Slashdot Subscribers Now See The Future · · Score: 1, Funny

    Come on, Communism has only killed 100 million people in the last hundred years, why not give it another chance?

  11. of course on Sony First To Market With Blue-Laser DVD Recorder · · Score: 3, Insightful
    but when the price becomes reasonable the 23GB disks are where my backups will live.

    By the time you can afford this, you will have terabytes of data and using these will be just like backing up gigs onto a normal cd-r.

  12. Re:jumped 33% eh? on Record Label Thrives Selling CDRs · · Score: 3, Funny
    Folk Songs of the Canadian North Woods

    OK, now I know this article is a scam, as if Canadians have advanced to the point that they not only have music, but also learned to record it? C'mon people, this is Canada we're talking about.

  13. Re:GoodBye Dolly... on Goodbye, Dolly · · Score: 1

    what about eve chops. I hear that mental illness adds a special spicyness to the meat.

    ok, so it's an insult, but it's still funny

    I ran a tracert on your mom and found her on the corner.

    Sounds like a newer BOFH. Also check out Gord a video game store owner.

  16. Re:My working NES on NES PC · · Score: 1
    You need to get "The Adventures of Bayou Billy"

    It's a great game that uses the light gun, along with side scrolling fighting action, and jeep driving. It was a great game.

    And I'd have to agree, turning a NES into a computer is rather dumb. The article wasn't even about porting linix to run on it or anything like that, it said how to gut the box to make a novelty case, waste of a good nintendo.

  17. Re:my opinion.... on Dealing with Employers Who Perform Credit Checks? · · Score: 1
    No, it doesn't mean that you'll never screw up with their money, heck, even if they have screwed up in the past it doesn't mean that they will. But if they have a long history of screwing up that goes down for a couple of years, well, then I can assure you, that I wouldn't let this person even look at the company funds.

    And as to your referances knowing anything. Unless you were in a position to screw up their money, or went to them for help when you screwed up your own money, how would they even know about your credit history.

  18. Re:my opinion.... on Dealing with Employers Who Perform Credit Checks? · · Score: 2, Insightful

    Your right, the company has no need to look at the credit history for someone taking a director level position, a position that could require the managing of funds for the department. The company really has no need to look at how someone who could be determing how to spend thousands of dollars does with money.

  19. Re:Credit check... on Dealing with Employers Who Perform Credit Checks? · · Score: 1

    Actually, by Director level position, I am to assume that he will be running things, which would include the power to purchase equipment, some control of workers wages, and basic management of funds. If someone can't keep their own funds, how will they manage the companies?

  20. Re:Marketing Genius on Finally: PC-to-Phone Calling from Linux · · Score: 1

    I was wondering that myself, since I can't read what it said on the page that came up, I'm left to guess that it was slashdotted, and that is the IP's way of saying that it used up the monthly bandwidth.

  21. Re:Superman is not SUPPOSED to be human! on Judge Decides X-Men Aren't Human · · Score: 1
    Perhaps they met in the park, and the hulk saw some butterflies and pretty flowers so he went to his happy place. And as we all know, when Hulk not mad, Hulk not smash.

    I'm guessing that seconds later, he saw some litter, and beat the snot out of Spider-Man.

    Dude, do you really wan't Uncle Jessie's sloppy seconds???

  23. Eddings on Top 10 New Sci-Fi/SF Authors? · · Score: 1

    David and Leigh Eddings have several good books that I recomend to anybody out there with eyes. Start with The Mallorean and the Belgariad, then move on to everything else. It's really great epic fantasy.

  24. Re:How about.... on Ask Kevin Mitnick · · Score: 1

    8 years is a long time in the computer scope of time. He does know about spam right? I wouldn't want him to think that there really are thousands of girls out there just waiting for him so they can have some intiment cyber moments.
