  1. Wow on Peephole Displays · · Score: 1

    When I worked in a telecom store a year back or so, me and and another guy just got our hands on one of the last few Rex 6000 from our distributor. While we were talking a bit about it he got this very idea, that you should be able to scroll the screen by moving the unit over a table or so. I thought it was a brilliant idea, but then forgot all about it. Until now. Fancy!

  2. Re:not pretty? on HomePod Brings Music from iTunes to the Living Room · · Score: 1

    I think it's dead ugly. I thought it was at least going to copy some of Apple's design.

  3. Re:Power outages ? on Barcode-Controlled Home? · · Score: 1

    For the last time, if you read the article you'll see that this electronic lock works just like any other electronic lock - i.e. the key is still functional.

  4. Re:Formula One on Gentlemen, Hack Your Engines! · · Score: 2, Funny

    "These are cars that can be remotely re-tuned during a race." Somebody has been watching the Compaq/HP commercial I think! ;-)

  5. Re:Perhaps they already broke it. on X-Box Private Key Challenge Ended · · Score: 5, Funny

    Perhaps one of the first key checked was the right one? It's not *impossible*!

  6. Re:Gee... on Xbox Private Key Distributed Computing Project · · Score: 1

    They are already produced in huge numbers. They are not made on demand.

  7. Re:Not the end of the world on Microsoft To Acquire Macromedia? · · Score: 1

    Amen.

  8. Re:IMHO on More On Kapor's Attempt To Best Outlook · · Score: 1

    Outlook is e-mail, calendar, task list, contact list and the nice journal. And yes, you can use all of these features completly standalone.

  9. Re:Not the end of the world on Microsoft To Acquire Macromedia? · · Score: 2, Insightful

    Don't worry, Microsoft will change the format completely for the next version.

  10. Re:Not a Treo on New Ultra-Mobile Smartphone Neonode N1 · · Score: 1

    Porsche actually make bicycles :-) Look!

  11. Re:IMHO on More On Kapor's Attempt To Best Outlook · · Score: 1

    I think you are refering to Outlook express, not Outlook. Outlook doesn't ship with Windows, and it's so much more than a mail client.

  12. Re:Prototypes on More On Kapor's Attempt To Best Outlook · · Score: 2

    Eww! Yuck! That's some of the worst interfaces I've ever seen!

  13. Interface?? on Sharp C-700 English Conversion Pictures · · Score: 1

    The GUI looks terrible! I hope it can be skinned or something because that sucks! Yuck!

  14. Telia Homerun on Marriott to Add Wi-Fi in 400 Hotels · · Score: 1

    In Sweden and a bunch of other countries AP:s have been placed in a lot of hotels, airport lounges, train stations and so on. This is called Telia Homerun. It is a bit on the expensive side, but it really works fine. It would be nice if more companys like Telia could make some agreement and let users access their account on any of the involved networks. Like cell phone roaming. I once spoke with a technician from Telia who told me they were trying seamless roaming between cell phone data (HSCSD, GPRS) and the Homerun networks. That would be pretty nice. A slow connection with great coverage and a highspeed connection with low coverage, in wait of a highspeed connection with good coverage.

  15. Standards... on Quicktime 6 Becoming Mobile-Phone Standard? · · Score: 2, Insightful

    OK, so on Micrsoft phones windows media will be the standard and on the other phones quicktime will be? Don't you just love standards?

  16. High effect on FCC Approves 802.11b Phased Array · · Score: 2, Interesting

    With a long range like that I guess your brain will be pretty fried if you sit close to the AP, no?

  17. Re:.porn on Plans For New TLDs · · Score: 2, Interesting

    I don't think porn sites should be forced into it. It's better to somehow make it cool for porn sites to have a .porn address.

  18. .porn on Plans For New TLDs · · Score: 5, Interesting

    A .porn domain would be good, if most of the porn was collected under a single TLD it would be easy to block it at schools and so on.

  19. Missed?? on NYTimes Year in Ideas · · Score: 4, Funny

    I don't think /. missed the rat-story, I even recall it was a dupe!

  20. Re:Well, DUH! on Console Games Sales Beat Out PC · · Score: 1

    Me and my friend saw a PS2 bluescreen at CeBIT 2001. I took a blurry picture of it just before a Sony employee got there and reset it.

  21. Re:The BOfH seetest dream... on Tornado in a Can · · Score: 1

    How unfair, the company I work for doesn't have an XXX department...

  22. Re:What even happened to the honda idea? on Motorcyclists To Get Wearable Airbags · · Score: 1

    Because planes generally doesn't have an awful lot of obstacles to avoid? Should it be on a collision course with another plane it can most likely change course without crashing into something else. Cars can end up in much more complex situations. There are systems that automaticly makes the car slow down when approaching an object too quickly, but that's it.

  23. Re:Worse? on Motorcyclists To Get Wearable Airbags · · Score: 1

    Haha, funny! And I just ran out of moderation points...

  24. Sorry! on Stanford Jumps Into Cloning Fray · · Score: -1, Offtopic

    In Soviet Russia, the embryos clone YOU!

    Newsflash! This is exactly why they beta test games!
