  1. Re:Speech recognition uses on Researchers Work To Perfect Computerized Lip Reading · · Score: 1

    I wonder how you found out about this?
    Were you out on a date with a deaf woman and when you told her you wanted to fuck her she brought you fruit?

  2. Oh god yes, the best idea ever on A Proposal For Unionizing Bloggers · · Score: 5, Funny

    Its the best idea ever.
    That way we can abuse their rights and they can go on strike!!!

  4. Re:A bit of quick web surfing? on Startup Offers Instant-Boot Windows Alternative · · Score: 1

    What would stop them from adding open office?
    A web browser is a pretty complex program (its the one which uses most memory on most machines) so why not other things?

  5. Re:Wrong on iPhone Trojan Sign of Things to Come? · · Score: 1

    Anything that starts with "replace the firmware of your device with this hacked firmware" can obviously cause you problems.

    Isn't that what Linux advocates have been asking Windows users to do for years.

    I best duck now, but the analogy is the same.

  6. Re:Why did they buy it? on Sun Buys MySQL · · Score: 1

    The serious answer is they bought the brand.
    Sure, they can get the source and remake their own database, but whatever they do with it, it won't be mysql.

    Didn't they know they could just download it and run without paying?

  8. Will code for Beer on Is Open Source Recession Proof? · · Score: 1

    I will carry on working on whichever projects I need to as long as I keep a roof over our heads and food in our stomachs.
    If I have enough time left to make my pet project better I will do, but don't expect me to go hungry to help you.

    Infact, I see a lot more bounties being put out on features (I was offered $10 for a minor example in Python last night)

  9. Re:So we are back to RAM drives! on 2008, The Year of Solid State Storage · · Score: 1

    I have never seen the point in setting up a fixed RAM drive.
    The amiga natively supported a variable sized RAMdrive which was always 'full' but as long as physical memory was available still had space.

    Anything else since has seemed archaic.

  10. Sorry everyone on Origin of Antimatter Cloud Discovered · · Score: 1, Funny

  11. New keyboards are bad too on The 10 Worst PC Keyboards of All Time · · Score: 2, Informative

    The layout of the keyboard on the n810 is not that good either.
    Its more geared (as the rest of things are on the device) for a right handed person and theres odd things missing.

    (just a bit frustrated, the rest of the device is amazing)

  12. good time to become a loan shark on SecondLife Bans Unregistered In-World Banks · · Score: 0

    its a good time to become a loan shark.
    Big Tony is already making a killing with his interest rates.
    I've heard that if you don't keep up with your repayments, they will break your ARM or hit you so hard it fragments your memory.

  13. i download copyrighted material everyday on ISPs To Filter Traffic For Copyright Holders? · · Score: 5, Insightful

    i download copyrighted material everyday and if my ISP stopped it then I will be very annoyed.

  14. Good news for paraplegic mice! on Scientists Restore Walking After Spinal Cord Injury · · Score: 5, Funny

    The entire population of paraplegic mice are rejoicing today in the hopes that this news pans out.

  15. Re:Huh, I must have blinked. on Upgraded Hubble To Be 90 Times As Powerful · · Score: 2

    Their answer may not have anything to do with Hubble.

    I am quite certain that former astronauts (and prospective ones) when asked if they would do a garbage cleanup mission in orbit would say "Absolutely, In a heartbeat."

    I would, wouldn't you?

    (thats not to say hubble isn't worthy at all, it has produced some of the greatest images of space seen so far)

    1. Clean and sterilise the bottles. I use 750mL plastic PET bottles. A batch of beer will fill 30 of them.

    2. To each bottle add sugar. I use sugar drops and add two per bottle (see below). The additional sugar is to allow for extra fermentation in the bottle. This is what causes the beer to have bubbles.

    3. Remove the airlock from the top of the fermenter to allow the beer to flow freely.

    4. Warm your hands (Not normally necessary but Bender insisted on this step before letting me near his tap).

    5. Slowly, with each bottle tilted to avoid frothing, fill each bottle from the tap.

    6. Tightly cap each bottle.

  20. In other news on Intel Resigns from One Laptop Per Child Project · · Score: 0, Offtopic

    In other news the one child who was due to receive his laptop has mysteriously vanished leaving the project in even more deep trouble.

    Sources say the one child was expected to be waiting outside the gates of his school at the end of the day but did not turn up.
    Speculation around the town says it was because he got into trouble and was given detention.

    The silverlight version uses .net language features to transparently instance the whole MSDN tree and do an instr() on the contents.
