  1. Insurance. on What Extras Should I Buy When Buying a Laptop? · · Score: 0

    I know many a person who has lost their laptop or had it stolen/damaged. May never be needed, but it's nice to have...

  2. gawab.com on Which Webmail Service Do You Use? · · Score: 0

    My friends and I have been using this one for a while now and we haven't had any problems at all. It's free, reliable, and provides good POP3... unlike that mail15.com farce...

  3. calculators, maybe? on Teaching Programming Skills to Children? · · Score: 0

    Well, the way I started out was by learning how to program my TI-83 Plus, first in its built-in BASIC language and then in z80 assembly. But, that may not be the way to go, as TI-BASIC is really limited and doesn't really teach you much (though you get more from learning TI-89 BASIC, as it's more complex), and z80 ASM tends to be a bit tricky as a first real language... (Though it made me enthusiastic about learning other languages because they seemed so much easier :-P)

  4. ah nuts... on Out-of-Body Experience on Demand · · Score: 0

    I came in here to see some potentially witty comments, but no one has yet made a reference to milako plus synthemesc... :-P

  5. Re:The next thing I'm buying.... on Caffeine Reduces Skin Cancer In Mice · · Score: 0

    Can one make a lotion from penguin mints?

  6. Commies! on Odd Impact Crater found in the North Sea · · Score: -1, Offtopic

    It's a crazy commie plot! jk Hehe, what do you call the webmaster of a Communist site? A dotcommie! HahAHahAHa

  7. light? on Building a Pressure-Sensitive, Multi-Point TouchScreen? · · Score: 0

    I don't know how feasible this is, but couldn't one use LEDs in the screen frame along with detectors opposite arranged so that they form a detection grid on the surface of the screen and register an interruption of the light (such as by touch or something)?

  8. Aaaah... refreshing on Is There Such a Thing as "Too User Friendly"? · · Score: 0

    That is exactly why I like Mozilla- you have to make it user-friendly ;)

  9. Ah nuts on Scientific American Web Awards · · Score: 0

    It would've been nice to see http://physlink.com and/or http://www.heavens-above.com on there...

  10. It's been done on Transforming a Laptop into a Robot · · Score: 0

    Heh, I have a Norland Research Robot (CalcRobot) that does basically the same thing, only it links with a TI graphing calculator...

  11. w00t!... maybe not :( on Codingstyle Interviews PS2 Linux Developers · · Score: -1, Flamebait

    Must purchase kit... no money... I hate Capitalism!

  12. Re:One in math? on A New Kind of Science · · Score: 1

    I find more fun in my sociology class in watching the reactions of my classmates at what we learn... true entertainment... along with cellular automations ;)

  13. Re:D'oh on Hubble's 'Pillars of Non-Creation' · · Score: 1

    I use the new one of the tadpole galaxy on mine, takes a while to load up though, :P

  14. Chaos perhaps? on Airplanes May Affect Weather Patterns · · Score: 1

    Was anyone reminded of the suggestion that a single butterfly could change weather patterns when they read this?
