  1. OK, I'll Bite on Ask Slashdot: Protecting Data From a Carrington Event? · · Score: 5, Insightful

    Let's just get the promotion out of the way.. sigh.. what's the name of your game company and what game did you just release?

  2. Man Plus by Frederik Pohl on Ask Slashdot: What's the Most Depressing Sci-fi You've Ever Read? · · Score: 1

    I never actually got through it. When they inform his wife he no longer has any "equipment" for her to service I was outta there. Honestly, where could the book possibly go from there?

  3. Fleur-de-Lis on Rumors of Pratchett Film · · Score: 1

    Whatever you desire. Oh, wait, that's Pierce.

  4. Re:Sun Spots could be partly to blame? on Power Outages Strike East Coast · · Score: 1

    It's the solar terrorists at it again. I've got all the evidence I need for a DRPA grant to Flare right back at 'em!

  5. Re:tell me something on Motorola's i95cl · · Score: 2, Funny

    Gee, maybe because the Unions don't have such a strangle-hold on the economy. How come toenail clippers cost $5.00? Oh sorry, that should be in ERU. I know celular technology is far in advance of what we have here in the states but damn, that's what 6 weeks of vacation I'll get ya.

  6. Re:Uhh Great But.. on Motorola's i95cl · · Score: 1

    I certainly hope so. Nothing seems more ridiculous to me than tying hardware to software. But today I tried to buy my father a Motorola phone I liked only to be told, "It wouldn't work on Sprint". This is absolutely insane to me and I can't understand why cell phone manufactures go along with it.

  7. Uhh Great But.. on Motorola's i95cl · · Score: 1

    I've seen 2-3 phones I'd much rather have but my service provider, (sprint/Satan) wouldn't support. Am I the only one to observe that the cellular provider directly ties the choice of phone to its support? Is there a way around this? Can I buy my phone and use it where I please? A year of cellular woes has confused me.

  8. Suree.. on Schmidt Predicts Digital Sky Is Falling · · Score: 1

    Lemme guess, he's running a consulting group that can "advise" companies on how they can protect themselves.
