  1. Re:Here's the text of the article on Cell Phone with Camera = Scanner · · Score: 1

    This sounds really cool. Do you have any idea if there are any applications like this today?

  2. Re:Yeah it's nice on Subversion 1.0 Released · · Score: 1

    No.

  3. Re:I call dibs on implants on Nerve Cells Successfully Grown on Silicon · · Score: 1

    ME? As in Windows ME? Dude, that's so obsolete :-)

  4. Re:On Apple's behalf... on Crack the Pepsi iTunes Promo Code · · Score: 2, Informative

    They said the 1 in 3 caps were a winner. You can of course never know if this is true. You could buy a huge amount of bottles and do some statistics calculations and get a pretty good estimate that way, but I really don't think it's that important. They're giving away songs for free!

  5. Re:Graphic Artists! on What Kind of Tablet PC to Buy? · · Score: 1

    I think a drawing pad is better than drawing directly on the screen. I know several artists who has them and love them.

  6. Re:Cue a thousand alien-watcher website updates.. on The Real Reason why Spirit Only Sees Red · · Score: 1, Funny

    I for one welcome our new red martian overlords.

  7. Re:mydoom source on MyDoom.C Making Its Way Across The Net · · Score: 0, Offtopic

    If Linux were widely adopted on the desktop you'd expect it to at least be able to unzip/tar files by double-clicking them.

  8. Re:Environmental Impact? on Preempting Hailstone Formation To Protect Cars · · Score: 3, Interesting

    Exactly, can you change the weather just because you own the land under it? I don't think there are any laws dealing with these things, but then IANAL.

  9. Re:shooting themselves in the foot on Xbox 2 - The Price of Compatibility? · · Score: 1

    The Sega mega drive could play Sega master system games with a special adaptor cartridge.

  10. Re:ugh on Google Cancels Spring IPO · · Score: 3, Funny

    Fill another swimming pool?

  11. Re:awesome on Trojan Horse Caused A Siberian Explosion · · Score: 1

    Add one or more good looking women and you have yourself a Bond movie.

  12. Re:They just don't get it on Virtual Dummy To Try On Clothes · · Score: 1

    "But imagine going to the store and quickly cycling through pants/shirts..."

    No no no. Imagine going to the store once, get yourself scanned, and then browse through the clothes from home, without having to go to the store unless you find something that you like.

  13. Re:I wonder on Ultimate Automotive Computer Installation · · Score: 5, Insightful

    I think the parent has missed the whole concept of, well, hack-value. If you have a lot of money, you can buy almost anything. But what's that worth compared to actually building the stuff yourself? Kudos to this guy and all the other "hackers" out there.

  14. Re:Amazing stuff... on The Amazing Properties of Aerogel · · Score: 1

    Every time I see these pictures I start wondering if this stuff is real or not. Some of the pictures looks so faked. I'm sure they're not, though.

  15. Re:Umm... on iCal 1.5.2 Released · · Score: 1

    I don't think the main point of these smaller "news" items is to tell the world about their subject, but to give people a place to talk about them.

  16. Re:Pedantic grammar comment on Senator Plans P2P Summit · · Score: 1

    Yeah, I was a bit confused. I mean, I've heard "there, there", like when comforting someone, but I don't think that's the case here :-)

  17. Re:Nope, most people don't... on Upgrade Your eMac · · Score: 1

    Yeah, but you don't have to pay for the funeral yourself! ;-)

  18. Re:Finder on Tog Takes on Mac OS X 10.3 · · Score: 1

    Yeah! And what's up with GarageBand?? Another look?! I want the smooth and nice original Aqua look, is that too much to ask for?
    I am an Apple user after all, and all this brushed metal doesn't go well together with my flatpanel iMac, though I understand that Apple wants to make the OS look the same way as the G5:s. I wish they could make some kind of theme thing that let the user choose the look of the OS.
    Apple puts brushed metal everywhere but where it's really needed. I'm of course talking of the back side of the iPod. It should have been brushed right from the start. I know some people do it themselves, but the result is far from perfect.
    There, now I feel better...

  19. Re:Please use google cache, already slow... on Apartment Lit Solely by LEDs · · Score: 1

    Being Slashdotted they can now have their server room lit solely by LED's as well...

  20. AMD on Should a '9200' Brand Mean a 9200 GPU? · · Score: 0, Troll

    Come on, AMD got this idea years ago when they dropped the actual speed from their CPU model names and replaced it with a higher number.

  21. Re:Sheesh on A Look Inside Virginia Tech's New Super Computer · · Score: 1

    I think that's the biggest problem with clusters like these. I mean, I sure as hell want one, but I have no idea what to do with it. I don't even know how to use it!

  22. Quit on Best Way To Beat A Caffeine Addiction? · · Score: 1

    According to a doctor I know it takes about a week of terrible headache, then you're out of the addiction. I don't drink coffee myself, so I'm "clean".

  23. Re:No PC on Wireless APs in Homebrew Coffee Shops? · · Score: 1

    Exactly, that neighbour will probably be the one who uses the connection most, with or without Kazaa, yet he won't have to pay a penny.

  24. No PC on Wireless APs in Homebrew Coffee Shops? · · Score: 1

    Try without the quotas and stuff first, perhaps bandwidth hogs won't be a problem. This way you don't have to buy a PC. Or perhaps there are routers with these functions built in?

  25. Obvios? on Court Rules Against Photographers in Copyright Suit · · Score: 3, Insightful

    To me it's pretty obvious that publishing something on CD is the same as publishing it on dead trees. I'm happy for the photographers.
