  1. interesting plus good on Spirit and Opportunity Now Operational · · Score: 0

    sounds like an application of the concept of email spamming to space exploration.

    in that case, I think we should coopt all spammers to this new space exploration initiative, and send them to the farthest reaches of our solar system, and beyond!

  9. Re:Janet Reno on Capcom - Gladiators, Nightmares, Jean Reno? · · Score: 2, Informative

    i ve seen all those moves except "just visiting" and the original title is "Nikita" (why they added "la femme" for the english release i cant fathom) plus the other movie is spelled "Les Visiteurs" and it has a sequel, "Les Visiteurs 2" but cmon admit it, Janet Reno in a japanese videogame would be so much funnier.

  13. I saw something similar, yet different on Hektor: the Graffiti Robot · · Score: 1

    once i think it was in Adbuster

    basically, someone had modified a R/C car to hold a rack of spray paint cans and some additional hardware, to form a kind of dot matrix printer which was used to paint slogans on the pavement.

    i also vaguely remember something about some people doing the same thing on a larger scale, using a passenger van and painting long messages on road surfaces.
