  1. What? on Virginia Tech to Build Top 5 Supercomputer? · · Score: -1, Flamebait

    Slashdot posting vaporware news from an unreliable (Thinksecret et al) source?

    Get the fuck out of here.

  2. Navier-Stokes Equations and Brunt Vaisala Frequenc on Build Your Own Lava Lamp · · Score: 1, Funny

    Lava lamps are a particular good example of the behavior of atmospheric and fluid dynamics.

    The Navier-Stokes Equations and Brunt Vaisala frequency come to mind.

    Of course this simplifies down to F = MA.

    God Bless Newton.

  3. Am I Being Served? on BBC to Put Entire Radio & TV Archive Online · · Score: 0

    ...Yes!

    And quiet well with a nice data archive.

  4. 48 Sobig.F virii since last night on The Origin Of Sobig (And Its Next Phase) · · Score: 0

    I set up a rule filtering out .scr and .pif files last night at 10pm. Since then, under a 24 hour period, I have recieved 48 emails.
    I have a mac so it is not really a problem but just annoying

  5. Semen Stains on Holographic Keypads Float Into View · · Score: 0, Troll

    Yes, now the keyboard is holographic but Gravity still comes into affect here, so now it will just land on the holographic-producing device.

    *Splortch*

  6. GPS Flaws on Garmin iQue 3600 · · Score: 0, Insightful

    GPS is flawed. At least for most consumer level devices. The service is based on conditionality:

    1) Most GPS devices have a hard time working properly indoors. Would good is a PDA device if you can't take it indoors. Something that is "limited" to outdoors might get roughed up due to rain and other environments
    2) Satellite position. Some times the service for GPS is not immediately available due to changes within the satellite protocol.

    A good device, but I can't justify half of a 1000 dollars on it.

  7. Re:Brave the Rockies on Get Your 802.11 Media Fix From SeattleWireless TV · · Score: 1

    Tacoma, Washington is located by the Cascade Mountains, not the Rockies.
    The Rocky Mountains start in Eastern Idaho and continue southward.

  8. Geeky RIAA/Slashdot Shirt on Last Chance for Slashdot T-Shirt Contest · · Score: 4, Funny

    RIAA: "Show me your Subpoenas!"
