  1. Re:Makes little difference on Snooping Through Walls with Microwaves · · Score: 4, Funny

    With all these new snooping devices being invented, I think it's time someone devised the 'tinfoil flat'.

  2. Re:Might as well get it over with... on Seattle Axes Monorail Project · · Score: 1

    It glides as softly as a cloud!

  5. Re:The Problem: Batteries don't last long enough. on Batteries Becoming Limiting Step For Portable Toys · · Score: 1
    Ignore the parent comment, he's obviously wrong.

    Anyone with any ounce of intelligence knows the plural of battery is Batterii.

  6. Re:RTFA - Plain Text Mirrored on User Review of N-Charge II Laptop Battery · · Score: 4, Funny
    Just in case the site goes down:
    you do know that the review is actually at the top of this page. and so reposting it down here is so very redundant. the reason for reposting an article is to get around the overloaded servers, or to get around having to register with a site to read it. so why exactly did you copy and paste this article and repost it?
  7. Re:Move the stickers? jeesh! on Classic Toys For Christmas? · · Score: 2, Funny

    no no no you'll never solve it like that, you have to do alternate corners... no not so fast, okay, now spin the middle side 'topwise'

  8. Re:Tin foil hats for everyone!! on Google Desktop Search Functions As Spyware · · Score: 1

    I'm really not sure what the administrator password is for as it doesn't create an administrator account.

    Yes it does!
    Hint: press ctrl+alt+del at the login prompt, and then type administrator, and your password... Funny that, you're now logged in as admin.

  9. Re:Nothing wrong with this... on Searching For Trouble With Google · · Score: 1

    and you get locked out of the account after the 3rd incorrect attempt (on most good accounts)

  10. Re:RELIABILITY!!! on DSI Delivers up to 3GB/s with Solid State Disk · · Score: 1

    I'm sorry, Lifewish cant reply right now, hes busy restoring from backups after his hard drive crashed just seconds after posting the last message

  11. Re:It's the people on the phones on Why Mobile Phones Are Annoying · · Score: 3, Funny
    A particular favourite of mine is whispering the old "Come back to bed" into the phone at a volume just loud enough for the person on the other side to hear.

    That usually gets the phone hung up pretty quickly :)

  12. Re:Well... on Defending Earth From Asteroids With MADMEN · · Score: 1

    then tell them to jump, pull their feet up, and quickly jump again whilst in mid-air, in order to avoid landing - problem solved

  13. Great Potential on Avalanches Simulated With 500,000 Ping-Pong Balls · · Score: 1

    This would make an excellent addition to the spectacular gameshow 'Takeshi's Castle'. The opportunities for hilarity are just endless... maybe

  14. Re:Now I need an external keyboard on Nokia to Port Perl to Mobiles · · Score: 3, Informative

    Maybe the Nokia 6800 is the phone for you:

    Nokia 6800

    built in qwerty keyboard, quite nice, and not as heavy or bulky as you would expect.

  15. Elephant Patrol on Elephant Repellent Tested In India · · Score: 3, Funny

    homer: "There's not a single bear in sight--the 'Bear Patrol' is working like a charm".
    Lisa: "That's specious reasoning,"
    Homer: "Thanks, honey,"
    Lisa: "According to your logic, this rock keeps tigers away".
    Homer: "Hmmm. How does it work?"
    Lisa: "It doesn't."
    Homer: "How so?"
    Lisa: "It's just a rock, but I don't see a tiger, anywhere."
    Homer: "Lisa, I want to buy your rock."

  16. Re:Spammers don't use their own computers on Microsoft Researching Anti-Spam Technique · · Score: 1

    This isnt necesarily a bad thing. Under current conditions the user might not have any idea that their computer is sending a million spam messages per day, but if the computer slows to a crawl, chances are they will either stop using it, or have someone take a look at it. either way the result is less spam, even if 8,000 messages a day are still being pumped out.

  17. PC games will never leave on On The Future Of PC Games At Retail · · Score: 1
    theres always going to be a market for good PC games.

    FPS and RPGs are hell to play on a console, it just doesnt feel right without the mouse and keyboard combination. While the mouse and keyboard make for useful console addons (and are always helpful when you want a play with xbox linux), they just look 'out of place' sat in the living room under a TV

  18. Re:Humans begin moving to AI on Will Earth Expire By 2050? · · Score: 1

    yeah, but wont we be using robotic artificial bodies?
    better not get too near the water

    My favourite bit of fun is looking for .dbx files (Microsoft Outlook Express email stores), if you get someones inbox.dbx you have all their passwords, personal info, spam collection, etc...

  20. Re:April Fools on 'Flight Speed' of Cattle Determines Tastiness · · Score: 1

    As homer simpson once said to himself: "Great Homer, the smartest thing you'll ever say and no-one was around to hear it"

  21. Re:oh ya.. on I Wanna Watch Cartoons! · · Score: 1

    Dine, then either dont pay, or dont read stories that dont interest you

  22. Re:Ummm what external antenna? on The Incredible Shrinking Antenna · · Score: 1

    on these phones the antenna is internal.
    If you open the back case the plate at the top below the power button and behind the screen is the actual antenna, just think how much smaller the phone would be if this could be removed. the biggest part of a phone would become the battery.
