  1. Re:Not actually computer use that causes it... on Does Computer Use Actually Cause Carpal Tunnel? · · Score: 4, Funny

    ... the real cause are the millions of pr0n sites users visit while using their PC. Thats only true if one hand is effected as in one-hand-typing. If both hands have it then it means that user is actually doing real work. (unless they have blog which is another form of masturbation) See my blog for further details.
  2. Material from the Sequels? on Blade Runner, The Final Cut · · Score: 1

    I had read the authorized sequels to 'Do Androids dream of electric sheep': Blade Runner 2: The Edge of Human, and Blade Runner 3: Replicant Night by K. W. Jeter they paint a very interesting tangent to the movie and much closer to the story. It seems the movie may be following that plot line.

  3. BUT that pimp said it's already Legal in Amsterdam on Human-Robot Love and Marriage · · Score: 1

    What happens in Amsterdam, stays in Amsterdam.

  4. In celebration of 10 years of Slashdot on Trans-Atlantic Robots · · Score: 1

  6. But not the book of Flintstone on New Dinosaur Species Discovery In Utah Released · · Score: 0, Offtopic

    Friends bow your heads, and solemnly repeat your prophets words;

    yaaaa Baaaa Daaa Baaa Dooo

    ahem, and remember keep faith the the Fred least the Barneychrist get you.

    Modern Scholars are still debating if the scriptures refer the Bestest Friend Barney the Neighbor to the terrible purple one. No records of the schism exist other then references the book of Latter Day [Fruity] Pebbles which describes the war in Bedrock over the wonderful cereal (part of a balanced breakfast).

    Has seen here.

  7. Light offset credits on Help To Map Light Pollution · · Score: 2, Funny

    Now that would make sense. Trade Credits from Blind people and religious fanatics for use by stadiums during night games and hefty fines for Las Vegas (baby!)

    Hmm Vegas alone could pay for NASA's budget every year. I'm liking it.

  8. Price of recycled Copper on Verizon, Copper, Fiber, and the Truth · · Score: 1

    These days Copper market is up, likely they view it as a money saving issue. They want to keep the copper tubes from eroding as data goes thru them. (what did you think that series of Tubes was made from???)

    You know what a series of copper tubes gets you at the recycle place? Being really frugal gets you that Villa in Tuscany.

    So thats why Cops eat donuts. Helps make them a more visible presence.

    hmmm donuts......

  12. Burning bridges? Perhaps it is on 'Floating Bridge' Property of Water Found · · Score: 2, Interesting

    If one considers that burning is a chemical change on the molecular level then what we are seeing might actually be burning.

    A high voltage condition puts a lot of excess energy in the water now consider that the water molecules are being forced to break their bonds and decomposing into their component parts being hydrogen and oxygen, since they are not in contact with say Carbon in any great quantity they don't burn in what we would understand as fire. The electricity would pull off one of the atoms either a oxygen or a hydrogen atom leaving a unbalanced pair with enough of a charge to attract a stray atom of which there are suddenly a lot. So the upshot it they can only reform back into H2O and since the current is going in one direction the momentum of the breaking forms the bridge. The other way would be if forming weak molecules of H4C2 which can't hold together and break down again also along the lines of the current. Since the current is originating from one direction its natural that they are breaking along the direction of the current the motion is consistently between the two poles.

    Ok, I am now officially out of crack, see you guy again once I have scored.

  13. Slashdot really needs to fork these topics on Parts of the Patriot Act Ruled Unconstitutional · · Score: 1

    I voted for Ron Paul against the first Bush. Still I don't really want to read about it endlessly as people hijack the main topic for their internecine political wars.

    It it really too hard to hide a topic tree?

  14. a quick substitution? Chris Crocker Video on MMO Bans Men Playing As Women · · Score: 1

    Just play that as you outgoing webcam feed sound off. They will do anything you ask just to keep you off the helpdesk line.

    Has my stomach turns /parody

  15. Re:This comes up periodically... on Internet Service Tax Moritorium Set To Expire · · Score: 1

    It has to come up periodically otherwise the lobbyists wouldn't have anything to do with all that money but buy mansions in Tuscany. Still one can never have too many mansions think what the poor mansion builders of tuscany would do without the support of American lobbyists.

    So join me brothers and sisters and help save the Gnomes of Zürich!

  16. the Grand Search-quisition on Google Testing "My World" Second Life Rival? · · Score: 1

    Personally I would not choose the I'm Feeling Lucky button on the iRACK. Worse yet the IComfy Chair, You might get tossed though the iWindows.

    But then I am a heretic.

  17. Re:moisture in your hand... on Device Reduces Stress While Gaming · · Score: 1

    Sounds like the end of one hand typing has we know it.

  18. ignore the facts and press ahead. on 10,000 Cameras Ineffective At Deterring Crime · · Score: 0

    How does it become fact prior to their discovery it's a failure? It was an attempt not a certainty. You are implying that you knew it was going to not work prior to this revelation and now your right. Well the universe doesn't work like that.

    Had it worked then the 200 million pounds paid out would have been well spent. Perhaps there are ways to make it work however I must admit I doubt it. You may be able to track back though the logged video and the time and place of an event and what happened prior & afterward. However you might end up getting the time wrong and following the wrong person from camera to camera.

    Well that's life.

  19. Pull my fingers on Aerosol Spray to Identify Bombing Suspects · · Score: 0

    Well, it all started when I was just 13 years of age. One day, while walking with some friends, I accidentally cut the cheese. Well, in my adolescent awkwardness, I blamed it on an old gypsy woman who happened to be passing by. BIG MISTAKE! The gypsy woman placed a curse upon my head. Because I smelled it, she decreed I would forevermore BE HE WHO DEALT IT!

    I use windows and mostly only use if for trivial things. Surfing in coffeeshops, gaming, watching vids. If I do plan to do something serious then it's going to be on Solaris or Linux.

    It collapse? dang. I drove on it just last year. Dang. glad I wasn't on it when it went down. Lucky I read slashdot otherwise I would never have known. This really is news for nerds, stuff that matters......

  23. Windmill tilting anyone? on Big Brother Really Is Watching Us All · · Score: 3, Funny

    You are getting confused with Scientologists that already do this when they play with their e-meters. Hmm, I smell a lawsuit. And there are a lot of Ex-SCO lawyers out of work right now.

  25. RIAA its purpose is to Sue on RIAA Complaint Dismissed as "Boilerplate" · · Score: 1

    How can they lose money when their whole purpose is to do the legal dirty work for the record labels. They started out as a sort of scam by some record industry lawyers to bilk retainer fees out of wealthy but clueless clients but when the industry started to tank they got caught in this lawsuit game. Sharing & Downloading wasn't even dreamed of when the RIAA was formed. They had been planning for legal battles against the dumbass christers "Rock & Roll is the Devil's Work" crowd not real threats to the bottom line.
