  2. Re:Question of the Millenium on 'Tower of Babel' Translator Under Development · · Score: 1
    I have to wave my hands and point to convey the same information in English.
    How is this substantially different to the way the majority of native english speakers convey information?
    Actually, I think that's Italian.

    Besides, "I could care less" is actually correct, people usually can :) It's "I couldn't care less" that is incorrect, because the fact that they are talking about it means they care to some extent :)
    Bzzzt.

    Sorry, but if I couldn't care less then I'm already caring the least that I could. It's usually the other person in the conversation that's talking about it. What are you going to do, ignore them?

    How about a diesel locomotive pulling a train of Blackboxen.

  5. Re:Obvious really. on If Not America, Then Where? · · Score: 1

    It seems that you can get that stuff pretty much anywhere considering that it's the world's biggest illicit market. The main problem is getting good outdoor grow (not everyone can grow their own).

    Personally I hate ClearType.

  7. Re:What's the alternative? on Lik-Sang Is Out Of Business · · Score: 1

    I've got the shits with all this Sony crap too, but you're right - I'm not even going to spare the time for the rest of this discussion.

    Speaking of which, Firefox2 has a really nice spell checker.

    But can they impersonate a T-Rex and mystify John Locke?
    That would be quite the feat considering he's been dead for 302 years.

    So where's my wireless power!? Though I'm not sure if I want the level of radiation necessary to power all these devices wirelessly in my study.

    Back to the topic. UWB is old news, but I was recently reading some old news about it's use in localised RADAR applications. I'd like a "digital compas" that tells me, my wife and kids where each other are when we're at the shopping centre etc.

  14. Re:Cloning on FDA Set To Approve Products from Cloned Cows · · Score: 1

    I find outdoor grow superior to the alternative, however it's almost impossible to find in Sydney unless you grow your own -- and that's not a viable option for some. I find the current state of affairs sad.

    Nice.

    What someone should do is create a botnet that spams teh interweb's fora with so many randomly generated slanderous messages that no one else can be slapped with this shit anymore.

    Indent style searches: K&R about 5,900,000 Alli (Actually, this is a bit broken! Anyone worked out how to enable multiline mode?) about 11,100,000

  21. Re:Useful to whom? on Google Unveils Code Search · · Score: 1
    Whenever I search for something code related on the web it's usually because I want to know how to do something. In such cases I dont really know what the code itself would be (i.e. the reason why I'm searching) so this wouldn't help at all.
    Hopefully code comments will help with this somewhat.

    I'm sure I'm missing something here - Google doesn't (usually) release useless new products :)
    Are you for serious?
