  1. Re:Designed Obsolescence on Blu-ray Proposes Incompatible BD-XL and IH-BD Formats · · Score: 1

    So what you're basically saying is that you've been using the same PC case for the last 19 years.

  2. Re:ultimate limit on Toshiba To Test Sub-25nm NAND Flash · · Score: 1

    I think once it's too hard to squeeze more things into a 2D surface we might start seeing development into 3D space.

    And then it leads to the creation of Skynet, etc... very bad stuff.

  3. Re:Marginal Gain? on Toshiba To Test Sub-25nm NAND Flash · · Score: 1

    You mean to tell me the 3D chip in my computer is actually 2D?

    What a rip-off!

    All that remains is to switch the compressor from "blow" to "suck".

    Ah yes, the Spaceball One model.

  7. The New Tardis on First Impressions of the 11th Doctor Who · · Score: 4, Interesting

    While Matt Smith seems capable of playing the Doctor, the new TARDIS on the other hand really was disappointing.

    I'm sorry but a pinball plunger, an old typewriter and a decor that looks ripped from a kid TV show just doesn't suit the supposedly alien look of the inside of the TARDIS. Too many earth parts, levers and buttons too obvious. The new TARDIS is a pale joke compared to the previous one.

  8. Re:Boohoo on Songbird Drops Linux Support · · Score: 2, Funny

    Neckbeards... Songbird...

    Obligatory Family Guy reference.

    What you want is a ModBook.

  13. Re:iCade's dreams crushed on David/Goliath Story Brewing Between Apple and iControlPad Makers · · Score: 1

    Actually if Apple does add an approved way of having external controls I think it's a good thing for projects like the iCade (even if the iCade isn't real... yet).

  14. Re:the linky in the video not working on Google Gets Quake II Running In HTML5 · · Score: 1

    Javascript != Java. That link if for the Java version, not the HTML5 version which is the current topic.

  18. Re:Damnit April Fools Day I Hate You on iCade, an Arcade Cabinet Docking Bay For Your iPad · · Score: 1

    You never built an arcade cabinet, have you. The parts alone would probably be around 50$ minimum, even in volume. The sides are CNC'ed laminated particle boards, the edges need T-molding, the joystick and buttons have to be arcade-grade, etc.

    Yes there is a market for that, but even ThinkGeek couldn't expect to sell 100K or even 10K of these, so also think about that when you think about volume pricing.

    Well, I am generally an Apple fan, however if what you say is right then Slashdot is also to blame because this "news" is a year late?

    I'm not saying Elan Microelectronics doesn't have a patent, however didn't they kinda give up their rights when they stayed silent when the iPhone launched three years ago?
