Fools! I think that Bill Kaysing in his brilliant Fox documentary proved quite conclusively that not only did the US never send anyone to the moon, but that it is also technically quite impossible.

"Mozilla Jumps on 'Lean Browser' Bandwagon" (emphasis mine)
What other browsers are (or at least claim to be) part of this "bandwagon" besides Opera? If none other than Opera exist, I think it to be quite an insult for this wise drive in the right direction to be relegated to bandwagon-hopping.
Indeed.
"will bascially implode themselves with the new highspeed media that's coming out. Lovely. There's supposed to be a firmware patch to fix it, but it may be 'problematic' for users to install."
Typical word-stretching and lofty sarcasm of Mac users.
"An overheating problem among drives used with new high-speed discs can destroy both the unit and the medium" matches "basically implode" perfectly.
"Anti-tank warheads use a shaped charge to create a jet of molten copper that pierces armor..."
Wrong! First, shaped charge warheads do not create a jet of molten metal. The metal is solid but under such high pressure that it behaves like a liquid (basically it's being bent and shaped very quickly). It's not always copper either, some use aluminum.
Second, not all tank rounds use shaped charges! Sabot-type rounds use a long rod of metal, like a giant metal dart. These are more effective than shaped-charge warhead rounds and are what is typically used against tanks (despite the fact that American shaped-charge rounds are called High Explosive Anti-Tank). Shaped-charge rounds are usually reserved for softer vehicles like APC's, trucks etc.

In other words, it's a computer.

Their noise canceling headphones appear to work a lot better than my Sony phones.
No offense, but that's not saying much. Those Bose headphones also have the most ridiculous price.
die slashdot.........
Well, obviously, this is a crisis .
The NJB3 is a heck of a lot cheaper too.
"If Bose would make something like that I would buy it in an instant..."
Apparently, you have never read a critical review of any Bose audio products.
More info... 10 or 20GB 1.5" hard disk, aluminum casing, on-the-fly music queueing, 98dB snr, firewire and USB 1.1
Don't forget the Nomad Jukebox Zen... http://www.nomadness.net/images/jukebox_zen.jpg

Yes, he missed Max Payne because its single player sucks. Totally repetitive gameplay with its one redeeming feature stolen from a movie.

"Ah, the days of running around in bland 3d environments and fragging your best friends surrounded by a plethora of sprites and simple textures."
Weren't the only things that were sprites the explosions and particles? I wouldn't think that could be considered a "plethora".
Is this really that useful or merely just pretty? Hmm
Excellent? Come on, the artwork is good, but they are rarely actually funny. Penny Arcade is far better.
