  1. Re:So now we end up fighting wars over water? on New Method To Generate Electricity from Water · · Score: 1
    From the article:
    By using a saltier solution, the scientists found they could obtain a larger current.
  2. An idea: automated spammer DOS attacks on How to Kill Spam Without the State · · Score: 1

    Can you DDOS the spammer? If each spammed mail server contributed it could be a large attack. If mail can be identified as spam soon enough that you still have their IP (or still have the connection) could the mailserver start sending traffic back down the pipe? As they send millions of spam the traffic back could explode and call great attention to the spammers activities, maybe even interrupt the operation.

  3. Re:where's my flying car? on What's Always Next? · · Score: 1

    Rather than make a car fly they should make a plane drive. If you can drive the contraption off the tarmac onto the road you have a flying car.

  4. Re:Analog is the key on LavaRnd: A Open Source Project for Truly Random Numbers · · Score: 1

    You could use ping time results to worldly servers. Is that digital or analog? Or would that be a faulty seed?

  5. Speech to Text? on MUD Co-Creator Bartle On Voice Chat in MMOGs · · Score: 1

    If you really don't want to hear voices speech to text would still be welcome.

    Some of us can't type that fast or may be busy using the mouse/keyboard for something else. It shouldn't be hard to implement.

    Anyway I doubt you'd ever have to pipe 50 simultaneous voices to the home, it would just be a racket, nobody can listen to 50 people at once.

  6. Re:Morons on X-Box Hackers Trying to Blackmail Microsoft? · · Score: 1

    My choice of metaphor: Shoot yourself in the foot or we'll shoot you in the head.

  7. Re:Plastic Notes work well on Counterfeiting With High Resolution Inkjets · · Score: 1

    Coins. $20, $50, $100 coins. Coins the size of mini discs. Bling.

  8. Anandtech Doom3 Benchmarks on ATI Radeon 9800 Pro vs. NVidia GeForce 5900 · · Score: 1

    Anandtech's Doom3 benchmarks show Nvidia has the crown in Doom3 by a fair margin. And probably will for most pixel/vertex shader engines. If you were going to spend $500 on a card I don't know why you'd get the ATI 9800 Pro.
