  1. He got an extra light, thanks to /. on Casemodding Enterprise Hardware · · Score: 2, Funny

    Now he's got a curious, glowing white light where his CPU was. /.ed to hell and back a few times, it seems.

  2. Dude, that's gonna turn some heads on Former DrinkOrDie Member Chris Tresco Answers · · Score: 5, Funny
    Blockquote the poster:
    I am setting up a service there called the "Free Software Mirror Project"
    I'm no lawyer, but a convicted warez dude setting up a "FREE SOFTWARE Mirror Project has to attract some attention....
  3. Re:Apache Saying Matthew Murphy Was Irresponsible? on Apache 1.3.27, Bug Fix and Security Updates · · Score: 4, Funny

    Hey, if you invented a law like Murphy did that fscks up almost everthing, do you expect to be called responsible?

  4. Ok, that really takes the cake for /. grammar on NASA Satellite Un-stranded · · Score: 1

    "Un-stranded"?? Man oh man...

  5. Uh, NO! on New Trailer For The Two Towers · · Score: 0
    Smeagol is not, nor was he ever, a hobbit. He was of a race unknown to the times of the War of the Ring, possibly related to hobbits and/or men, but not certainly. If they were related, it would be somewhat distant.

    Try the appendices and Unfinished Tales for more information.

  6. How can it have shape? on Protons Aren't round · · Score: 4, Interesting

    How can a proton have definate (or semi definate) shape? Shape can only be observed by sight (and protons are much smaller than the wavelength of light and don't just bounce high energy electo-magentic radiation), or by collision. Protons do not collide in the normal way, they either repulse like-charged particles by the electroweak force or attract them. So, how can the shape have any meaning?

  7. 9MM and MP5! on Lego Addictions · · Score: 4, Interesting
    Lego Beretta

    Lego H&K MP5

    These are really cool, with working slides, collaspable stock, and removable mags.

  8. Not just text messages... on California Bans Mobile Phone Spam · · Score: 4, Insightful

    The article also says that he signed bills to fight junk fax and expidiate do not call lists. Sounds like a great step forward for privacy and anti-stupidity laws!

  9. They didn't know in time. on UT2003 Gone Gold, Ships with Linux Support · · Score: 2, Informative
    If you would read the announcement, or any of the posts, you would know that they didn't know whether it would support linux when they sent the box design off. You can't reprint thousands upon thousands of boxes, delaying game release, to announce linux support.

    Stop being so paranoid!

  10. You're Calvin's dad, aren't you? on Science for the Car Ride? · · Score: 2, Funny

    Your son, Calvin, doesn't agree. Especially with regard to shovelling the drive...

  11. My professional opinion on Out-of-Body Experience on Demand · · Score: 1

    You're fsking NUTS!!!

  12. Bonus artwork! on Open Source Art? · · Score: 1
    The art:
    An error occured while loading http://artport.whitney.org/commissions/codedoc/ind ex.shtml: Timeout on server Timed out while waiting to connect to artport.whitney.org
    The source

    Seems good to me!

  13. Definition of "Broken" on Cryptogram: AES Broken? · · Score: 2, Informative

    Broken to a cryptographer means anything easier than brute-force. So in theory, this methed requires throwing less processor cycles at it than just totally random throwing, but it's still "just throwing processor cycles at it" in a sense. Broken to an engineer means something that is reasonable to do that cracks the code. That this is not (yet).

  14. Alert!!! Another essential CONSUMER ALERT on Beware of Fake Monkey Automatons · · Score: 1
    Everybody should be aware that the purported "antique skunk statue", which raises it's tail when a level is depressed, and is currently being widly distributed, is FAKE. There some similar items, but nothing of this description existed before May of 2001. BEWARE!

    The alert (hope it isn't /.ed into nothingness)

    Please tell everybody you know!!!

  15. Can you fudge a RAID with this thing? on 320GB Hard Drives announced · · Score: 0

    Could you fudge a RAID level 1 with this thing?

  16. Re:Safety? on Rear View LCD? · · Score: 1

    If you would read the post, you would notice that this if for a SOLAR car, hence no battery and it's not for cruising around picking up babes, but for some competition in all likelyhood. And yes, it would completely replace the rear view mirror.

  17. Wow! on Tan With Implants Instead Of Sun · · Score: 1
    From the article:

    A new phase of human clinical trials is due to begin within the next few weeks after earlier tests saw white-haired dogs and green frogs turn jet black when they were injected with the drug.

    This might even get that pasty-white developer's tan (tan only on the elbow of the left arm where that one piece of light comes through the crack in the window) out!

  18. Ah, the typical meteorite impact picture on Giant Meteor Struck 3.5 Billion Years Ago · · Score: 3, Funny

    Why does every news story involving meteorite have to have this picture? Where is it from? Is it a secret messages to terrorists?!

  19. Easy! on CD Copy Stopper · · Score: 1

  20. Re:Handgun cases on How To Travel With LCD Gaming Screen? · · Score: 1

    I don't think they like handguns at fencing tournaments-kind of an unfair advantage don't you think?

  21. Ok, they find the access point and then.... on Wardriving From 1500ft Up · · Score: 2, Funny

    How do you write with chalk at 1500ft? Must have looong arms...

  22. Not 2 days ago. on NWN Linux Screenshots · · Score: 1

    2 days ago? Look at the screenie - the date is ~1:30 on 8/16. That's about 24 hours ago by my clock-maybe slightly more/less because of time zones, but not much.

  23. freshmeat has many.... on Any rxvt-Sized Unicode-Aware Terminal Emulators? · · Score: 5, Insightful
    http://freshmeat.net/browse/158/?topic_id=158

    Ask slashdot is becoming increasing ridiculous, with the answer to almost every question found at either google or within OSDN. I don't mean to flame the editors, but it would be good if they would be a little more selective WRT ask slashdot.

  24. Local effect? on Energizer Mouse · · Score: 3, Interesting

    The thought of trading strength for endurance (and vis versa), is very interesting but I suspect that the balance in humans is pretty much optimal for general use. What's intriging to me is that the effect seems to be a local thing. Wanna be a soldier? How about cranking the upper body to strength and the lower to endurance? Geek? Turn the right arm to endurance. The possibilities are endless!

  25. Re:Owned Email? No. First Hotmail. on How The Postman Almost Owned E-Mail · · Score: 1, Funny

    Are you suggesting that Hemos would DRAMATIZE a news article? Burn heretic!
