  1. Re:Fischer Random Chess on Kasparov OpEd On His Latest Match · · Score: 1

    IM and GM players don't generally have much of a problem with opening lines. They have played so many matches and studied so much that they might as well have an opening database sitting right in front of them, it would make no difference.

  2. Re:sure sure... on Andy Grove Says End Of Moore's Law At Hand · · Score: 1

    A law is simply an observation anyways. Moore made an observation about some statistics, therefore he mad a law.

  3. one word on What's Keeping You On Windows? · · Score: 1

    games

  4. Am I the only one on Walk-Thru Virtual Environment · · Score: 1

    who thinks these displays look like cr*p?

  5. IANAE but... on Ars Technica on Hyperthreading · · Score: 1

    is this similar to or in someway related to HyperBicycles? Please, no techie answers, I don't really understand that stuff.

  6. This is cool, but nothing can compare to.... on Multi-Touch Keyboard Technology · · Score: 1

    The MindDrive!

    I got this 5 or so years ago, for novelty. You could actually get good enough at it to control the skier around obstacles just by thinking. Pretty cool...

  7. Re:/. vapor on Multi-Touch Keyboard Technology · · Score: 1

    SERIOUSLY, why do these posts keep getting modded up? Nearly every article has at least one response of "Hey, look, its slashdotted..." in one not-so-clever form or another.

  8. Re:Secure? on Ultrasecure Quantum Communications Over Thin Air · · Score: 1

    The other big problem is the "Bucket Brigade" attack, where an evesdropper simply sits in the middle, recieving and retransmitting the messages between sender and reciever, neither being the wiser. The evesdropper thereby can decrypt messages going both ways. This is the biggest problem with quantum cryptography in my opinion.

  9. I don't know about you all... on Animated Ads in a Subway Near You · · Score: 1

    but I would be happy to have something even mildly entertaining to fix my eyes on while riding the subway. If you've ever ridden a subway in a major city like New York, you know the first rule to safety is NEVER look another subway rider in the eyes. This just gives us something to look at. Fine with me.
