  1. Shit, they're onto us! on Professional Russian Trolling Exposed · · Score: 2

    Boris, fire up the escape bear!

  2. Re:Laugh on Hacking Your Body Through a Nerve In Your Neck · · Score: 1

    vagus, baby VAGUS

  3. Virtual Reality on Road To Mars: Solving the Isolation Problem · · Score: 1

    'Nuff said.

  4. Better on the outside on Scientists Create Permanently Slick Surface So Ketchup Won't Stay In Bottle · · Score: 1

    I don't care about wasting half a cent's worth of ketchup, but what I do care about is not getting sick. If this stuff is on the outside of condiment bottles and salt shakers at restaurants, it massively reduces the number of germs that'll live on said implements. And how often do you wash your hands between putting ketchup on your plate and dipping a fry into it?

  5. I guess she got tired of blaming weed... on Child Psychotherapist: Easy and Constant Access To the Internet Is Harming Kids · · Score: 4, Insightful

    She seems to blame a lot of external factors for the unruliness of today's youth. I wonder if it could really be that these kids are watching their parents' generation continue apathetically watching as the world goes down the shitter, Nah, couldn't possibly. They're the ones paying her top dollar to psychoanalyze their kids, after all.

  6. Absolutely Necessary on NVIDIA To Install Computers In Cars To Teach Them How To Drive · · Score: 3, Interesting

    This is an indispensable aspect of the road to automated driving, so to speak. Yes, learning human behaviour behind the wheel would be detrimental if it were applied directly to the AI's own driving algorithms, but consider that it's going to need to anticipate the actions of all the human drivers around it. Yes, I would like my self-driving car to have a very fine-tuned set of expectations for the idiocy it'll encounter.

  7. Check this list, possibly twice on Ask Slashdot: What Was Your Favorite Web Comic of 2012? · · Score: 1

    1) Paranatural for overall besties
    2) WHOMP! brings the funny
    3) Lackadaisy Cats because whoa
    4) and Girl Genius builds the stuff I wish I were building

  8. Another use for this: Solar panels? on New Take on Self-Healing Polymer Could Mean Scratch-Free Screens · · Score: 3, Interesting

    Isn't one of the biggest weaknesses of current solar panels that they get scratched up over time, thus losing efficiency? Seems like a good match to me..

  9. Re:Oh NO! This is TERRIBLE NEWS!!! on Exeem Open Beta Released · · Score: 1

    The eXeem central server is located in a trap-ridden lair, below an active volcano. Routinely infiltrated by secret agents, of course.

  10. Re:Warning: Console Gamer Bias on Computer Gaming PCs Try To Stack Up To Consoles · · Score: 1

    Not necissarily true, according to Activision. I want my REAL Spider-Man 2 for PC!!!

  11. Re:let's compare on Computer Gaming PCs Try To Stack Up To Consoles · · Score: 1

    That would be because playing on a keyboard/mouse combo is much more intuitive than a controller. The console gamer does far better on a console because he's gotten used to the handicap. PC gamers are in no way imaginable inferior to console gamers. They're just not masochists.

  12. Re:A rose is a rose... on Gator Forces Site To Remove 'Spyware' Label · · Score: 4, Funny

    rose... not quite appropriate here... i would venture to say that the steaming pile of horse shit said rose grows in by any other name is still a steaming pile of horse shit.

  13. Mousey the 853rd? on The Oldest Mouse Contest · · Score: 1

    Pardon my asking, but couldn't you just keep cloning your mouse every couple years? It would then have the same DNA as the original mouse and would therefore be indistinguishable by the contest enforcers.
