  1. "man dreams of leaving, but always stays behind" on Benford on Space Exploration · · Score: 2, Insightful

    ok, apparently we've gone to the moon, and thats great, but what is the preoccupation with getting away from, quite possibly the most naturally harmonic, and stunningly beautiful place in the universe. Here the plan guys, lets explore a few barron space rocks, so that we have somewhere to go when we're done wrecking this one!

  2. Ellegant as a, er, ...brick! on Review of PCV-W10 Desktop by Sony · · Score: 1

    Usability? foldup keyboard? Portability? WTF? These guys ever heard of a, laptop?! less on the table-top is not about cramming everything into one polymer typerwriter-like block and stripping away ergonomics. Its about as usefull a microchip that barks, ...oh, wait :-O

  3. hic hic gulp hic stagger hic on Hic Hic Hooray: Hiccups Explained · · Score: 1

    They didn't mention whiskey, even once! %)

  4. Low-ESR capacitors on Illicit Leaky Capacitors Killing Motherboards · · Score: 5, Interesting

    This is old news! (Sep. 2002) I submitted this to /. some time ago, but it was rejected...WTF?
    Links to original (and informative) articles are Faulty capacitors and Passive Component Industry report.

    In fairness most of the products affected carry a "Made in Tiawan" warning!
