  1. Re:Jealous? on Duke University Giving iPods To 1650 Freshmen · · Score: 1

    Why? I already spent time in New Jersey, going to Duke would have been redundant.

  2. Judging from their behavior at basketball games... on Duke University Giving iPods To 1650 Freshmen · · Score: 1

    The duke students will just record 10 GB of each other chanting obscentites. They're still just miffed UNC was the first internet radio simulcaster. Using a panasonic platnium boom box, CUSeeMee, a sunstation, and dual OC45 pipes straight to the backbone was a REALLY cool first use of tech innovation http://www.wxyc.org

  3. You think 50,000+ people at MS had no inkling on Microsoft's Strategy Memos · · Score: 1

    If they're using their own search engine, yes. Considering the 317 search reults that pop up searching "linux" on MSN, I think microsoft is trying to keep considerably more than 50,000 people in the dark. It is these public and contradictory postures like sanitizing a search engine while including it on their threat matrix that keep making them look like schmoes.

  4. All Mod Cons on Hack Your Car · · Score: 1

    I love that people are getting up in arms about modding vs. car safety and citing the Big Smart Engineers at the Important Car Companies for being so safety concious. This is crap. Cars are designed to do a job for as cheap as they can be made. There are thousands of recalls ever year. Not thousands of cars recalled, but thousands of recalls ordered. The auto industry is littered with the wreckage of disaterous design decisions (most recently, exploding tires, exploding gas tanks, and making millions of cars with Wilt Chamberlin's center of gravity). Screw "older and wiser". I swear by the Gothenberg Bible, not my Volvo owner's manual. Note: Volvo, so safetly is obviously important to me but not enough for me to shriek "What About the Children!!" when it comes to upping the psi on my turbo or installing aftermarket shocks and struts for tighter handling. If you put in the time and effort to understand the system, why not hack it? If there isn't the potential to improve it, I frankly have no interest in owning it.

  5. NY Times on Hack Your Car · · Score: 1

    They did an article about this last year in the times in the Thursday Circuits section thaking mostly about http://www.hondata.com/ these guys. Good read about what not to do (put it in or try to calibrate if you don't understand what "emergent properties" are or what some of the variables might do) Maybe someone has it archived with a pointer. Or feels like paying the NYT 5 bucks for it.(not)

  7. Re:I'm not going to watch the ROTK on Saruman Completely Cut from 'Return of the King' · · Score: 1

    Why wouldn't you just get a group of friends together and do a dramatic reading of it? It would only take a weekend and the cost of beer and pizza instead of waiting a couple decades and spending another billion dollars on something that's been done. Or just call Ralph Bakshi and have him do it for you.
