  1. Not so Great idea! on NYC Law Aims To Ban Cell Phones In Theatres · · Score: 2

    Well what if it was a genuine emergency.

    I say, if the phone rings and whoever recieved the call isn't packing their shit and leaving within thirty seconds, than kicking rights to everyone in the theater.

  2. More lawnmower than I need. on Internet-enabled Robot to Mow Lawns · · Score: 2

    When it comes to mowing lawns this is all I and every other self-respecting geek really needs.

    That is unless you have five riding mowers , five friends, one big yard and a shitload of paintballs.

    Thank you for your enlightening commentary on my browsing habits. There are just two thing that I would like to point out.

    It could be I was interested in other posters comments thus "scanning".

    Or maybe I'm a dumbass who dosen't know how to click Edit>Find in this Page under Mozilla 1.0.

    I guess it must suck to be me. Going thoughout my life wasting time with piss-poor webbrowsing skillz, damn I should just put a bullet in my head and save myself the misery.

    Oh wait there is worse things then being a dumbass who dosen't know how to use a computer.

    One is being an eccentric anal-retentive racing stripe in Jesse Venturas underwear. Someone who has nothing better to do then bust on somebody for their web-browsing habits. Could that person be.... nzhavok.

    Possibly.

  4. So where is he? on Crusher Crushed from Nemesis · · Score: 1, Offtopic

    Where's Clevernickname? I scanned all the nicks in this thread twice to see if he posted a response. I figured since he's a regular ./er he would he might have something additonal to add.

    No but this would.

    I have this apparatus hooked up to your brain. Now I move the stick to the left and you move right. Oh wait didn't I tell you, I hooked it into the part of the brain that registars pain.

    As soon as you regain consciousness again, we'll give it another whirl. Then you can start by mowing my fucking lawn, after getting me a beer.

    Linux Geeks? Marching? Yeah right.

  9. Controling a Rat's thought process 101. on Rat Mind Control · · Score: 3, Funny

    First you need to think about the type of rat you want to control. Do you want a Democratic rat or a Republican? There are many other alternatives such as a libertarian or a greenie, however those require more advance techniques and the gains are not as a great. The two mainstream types of roduntus politicious are much more plentiful, accessable and cost effective over the long term.

    After you chose your rat. You now need a very large organization that has in it's posession a large amount of money. Now do not be discouraged at this point, this easier done than you would be lead to belive. Simply take all ethics, integrity, honesty and honor that your soul posesses, roll all these traits into a little ball and then sell it on a street corner for crack.

    If you can perform this deed you have the potential to suceed in boardroom shinanigans, backstaping, corporate hoaring, thought theft, frivilous lawsuits, accounting coverups and the ocassiaonal rimjob. Perform these tasks to the best of your ability and you will have a large corporate entity under your control in a matter of a few years.

    Now you can't just pick any type of corporation and make it work with any rat. It just dosen't work out that way. Although there are exceptions there are general rules of thumb for picking the perfect corporation/rat marriage.

    If you want to subvert the thought process of a democrat, you will want a large entertainment company. Such a company might make movies, television, music. Now generally for entertainment the more mind-numbing the product the better.

    Remember that all you future Ted Turner's of the world. If your company produces quality mind-expanding entertainment that provokes thought in your target demographic then you are doomed to failure. A thinking population might actually think when they are in the voting booth. Such thinking causes random unforseen variables to occur like voting for the other guy.

    Oil, is a good industry to use to subvert a republican. Also a company with very deep ties with the military would be an outstanding choice.

    If you product destroys the enviroment and kills alot of people a republican is a sure thing.

    Rat control is a very old and time honored tradition thar predates even the Romans. With tried and true techniques to subvert every kind of rat to your will.

    There is nothing wrong with directly sticking a mind-controling apparatus into the subjects brain. You just need to take into consideration how obvious your influence when your rat is required to make a public speech with elctrodes, and wires sticking out of his/her head.

  10. Where are the Mp3's on Franklin's Glass Armonica · · Score: 3, Interesting

    I never even heard of an armonica before now. Can somebody please post a link to some MP3's, Vorbis or even some WMA files so I can hear for myself.

    Even the names of Mozarts works written with the armonica in mind would be helpful.

  11. Re:Historical sidenote on Dystopic Novels? · · Score: 1

    I stand corrected.

  12. I know this book has been mentioned before on Dystopic Novels? · · Score: 3, Informative

    However "We" probably has the most depressing ending I have ever read. IMHO I would rather do the starving rat in a cage straped to your face thing from "1984" then what D-503 went through at the end of that novel.

    The book has a history in the real world. The author Yevgeny Zamyatin was a supporter of the Bolshevik Revolution of 1905 and actually served some time in prison. (Historical note this was a different uprising then the more famous 1917 revolt that lead to the Soviet Union.)

    As time passed he became disillusioned and wrote "WE" as an anti-communist story. Throughout the twenties Zamyatin was hounded by his peers for not playing follow the literary leader (not writing propaganda). Zamyatin was allowed much to his surprise to leave Russia in 1931 and settled in Paris. Untill his death in '37 he remained an outspoken critic of the Soviet System.

    "We" has the advantage of being written with the perspective of someone who actualy helped in a small way bring about, lived during the founding of and later renounce a real world negative utopia.

  21. My local theater on The Future of Digital Cinema · · Score: 2, Offtopic

    used to be owned by Hoyts and was only two theaters. Being small , Hoyts only allowed second rate movies to be shown so people would go to the bigger theaters in the surronding towns. Eventually they closed it down and it sat empty for a year till a local guy took out a loan, bought the place, renamed it Welch Theaters, upgraded to Digital and charges $7.50 for a movie. That's what I paid to see AOTC's midnight premire.
    It's not Digital Technology that is raising ticket prices, it is poor management. Welch Theaters is one example of why we need the little guys around.

    Oh, and one more thing.

    FUCK HOYTS!

    There may have been perfectly valid reasons for running some server software on Win95 at that time.

    Sorry man Win9x isn't for todays servers.

    Well I'll make an exception to the saying "Nobody ever got fired for buying Microsoft."
