  1. Prior art on 3D Sphere Interface for XP · · Score: 1

    it's been done before, on a console even:
    Katamari Damacy

  2. frame rate on DOOM: The Boardgame · · Score: 5, Funny

    i guess i won't have to worry about getting a new graphics card after all

  3. Medical informatics on Struggling With Major IT Projects · · Score: 0, Flamebait

    great. Now Bush is going to create a National Patient record system with this track record.

  4. Re:Hmmm... on Car RFID Security System Cracked · · Score: 2, Funny

    you don't have a three year old i presume...

  5. star trek on The Evolution of Space Suit Design · · Score: 1

    again, star trek precedes real life... all we need are female vulcan astronauts.

  6. Re:Down with keyboards! on New Standard Keyboard · · Score: 1

    i'm glad you brought this up. as a physician, i spend 2-3 hours after office hours dictating. i've tried to create a web based app, but the real problem seems to be data entry in an efficient fashion, without getting in the way of actually talking to the patient. i can't see tablets working, with handwriting recongition sucking so much.

  7. apple and sony on Mac mini All About Movies? · · Score: 1

    it was interesting to see a representative from Sony with Steve Jobs at Mac World. the two companies have cooperated together in the past (the first powerbook, i think) this makes more sense as both companies seem to converge towards the same goal. that is, domination of home electronics.

    now if the next Mac Mini comes with a Cell Processor, you can easly distribute alot of High Definition stuff. Mac Mini Cells, that your PS3 can play with

    cool

  8. mirror? on A Look Inside the BBC's Network · · Score: 1

    hey, looks like you guys slashdoted the page. where's the mirror?

  9. Punishment Missile on Relic Russian ICBM To the Rescue for Science · · Score: 0, Troll

    I think this is really a cover for the Super Milk Chan Punishment Missile

  10. GTA on Gunshot Tracking Cameras to be Deployed in LA · · Score: 1

    any chance we can have this feature incorporated in the next Grand Theft Auto?

  11. Re:I don't care how efficient it is... on 230mph Electric Car · · Score: 2, Insightful

    i think you're right. just have to paint it pink, and give it the licence plate "FAB 1"

    http://home.t-online.de/home/internationalrescue /t hunderbirds/machines/fab1/

  12. playstation 2 cluster on Building a Linux XBOX Cluster · · Score: 5, Informative

    http://arrakis.ncsa.uiuc.edu/ps2/cluster.php

    i think this was on slashdot a few years ago.

  13. AOL on Internet Turns 35 Today · · Score: 3, Insightful

    I thought AOL (internet) was alot younger than that.

    it's amazing that their current ad campaign makes AOL=Internet

  14. design change on Centaur - a Four-wheeled Segway · · Score: 1

    they should recline the seat and paint it red. make it look more like this:

    http://www.bandaivisual.co.jp/akira/figure2.html

    "KANEDAAAAA!!!!!"

  15. AudioGalaxy on The Perfect Online Music Store? · · Score: 2, Insightful

    that was a great site, with informative reviews, and vast selection of music. still miss it.

  16. Purchase of MGM on Sony Adopts Blu-ray Disc PlayStation 3 · · Score: 3, Insightful

    this way Sony can push the PS3 effectively. the question is will they have enough Blue ray HD movies available by the time the PS3 is released.

  17. Re:Uh, maybe I should go on EBay. on HAL 9000 on the Auction Block · · Score: 1

    the only rendering i remember from Star Wars is the Death Star plans... is that it?

  18. Lawyers on War of the Worlds Remake Already Shot Overseas · · Score: -1

    Let the lawsuits begin!

  19. Re:laptop? on SETI Finds Interesting Signal · · Score: 1

    the laptop probably weighs 5 lbs. the rest of the weight is the nuclear powered battery for the long trip

  20. Re:Charcoal? on New Solution For Your Transistor BBQ · · Score: 1

    you're right: born from a star

  21. Carrie Fisher in Bikini's on Lucas to Make Sequels to Star Wars After All? · · Score: 3, Funny

    hmm she was hot 20 years ago, but that was 20 years ago. will she be up to the task again?

  22. Re:Oh, patients... on Hardware That Literally Doesn't Stink? · · Score: -1, Troll

    i'm a gynecologist and i deal with lots of smells.

    just another day at the office, i guess.

  23. And i thought bluetooth was dead on Epson's 12 Gram Flying Robot · · Score: 1

    now if they could get a web-cam attached to it, we'd get more annoying pop up ads.

  24. Re:i'm a doctor on 3D Holograms Detect Fake Signatures · · Score: 1

    i'm very legible with my scripts, it's my signature that's a scrawl

  25. i'm a doctor on 3D Holograms Detect Fake Signatures · · Score: 4, Interesting
