  1. Re:Small doses, eh? on Study: Small Doses of Caffeine Best to Stay Awake · · Score: 1

    I once bought 100 grams of caffeine to make OpenCola. What to do with the remaining 98g? I snorted some. It didn't seem to work. Foil smoking was better, but it might have been placebo. Does anybody know how to recrystallize caffeine to get caffeine citrate for snorting? ;)

  2. Re:Why buy one? on Exotic Wood Computer Cases · · Score: 1

    I did that once. It works, but i have been a little sloppy. I think that with a minimum of more work, it could have been really good.

    ftp _is_ blocked at our school.

    You _can_ email him, can't you?

    Eh? To be a nice husband? It'll pay off in the long end.

    Perhaps sleep is a symptom of "the big brain lock".

    Go read some about imatinib. And the other small-molecule proteine kinase inhibitors and the various monoclonal antibodies.

    It is not going to work. They can only learn through experience.

    What a sneaky way to brag to us that you're married.

    "free software" is "software libre". RMS _really_ should have chosen a better name.

    kcontrol has (had?) a kernel configurator, too.

    And if you use UV on triclosan-contaminated water, a type of dioxin forms. Read the label on your antibacterial soap.

  13. Re:I'd laugh if his kids got cancer on SCO Targets US Government, TiVo · · Score: 1

    Fuck you. I can not understand how this can be modded insightful. It's not his kids' fault. I wouldn't wish it to happen to him, either.

  14. Re:How will they enforce? on Low-power FM Transmitters Banned in UK · · Score: 1

    It's like that in Germany. If you have a TV or a radio, you have to pay a monthly fee which directly goes to the so-called "public" tv or radio stations. This is mandated by the government, but the stations are independent and often very critical of the government.

  15. Re:Linux helps hardware vendors? on Can Open Source Save Hardware? · · Score: 1

    You're so wrong I don't even know where to start. - Linus said he does not like to use kdb himself. He also advised other kernel hackers not to use it. Many still do, though. - Look at the nVidia drivers. You get binary .o files and a source code wrapper that has to be recompiled for every kernel.

    At a highschool where I live, they bought special bricks for â150 each. And at the hichschool I attend, â9M are being spent to remove toxic PCBs. So yes, people are willing to waste money in this way.
