  3. Re:What do they call movies on Video and Software Downloads Overtaking Music · · Score: 0

    1 in 4 downloaded short p0rn videos is more likely. 80% of those did so at 28.8. "Good things cum to those who wait" they always say

    Nothing like a two stroke running inside your house to really boost the WAF factor.

  5. A flat head screwdriver.... on Is Caps Lock Dead? · · Score: 0

    pops this key off. I found that I hit it far more in error than in use- so off it went. If I ever wanted to turn it on- I use a pen to hit it. Problem solved.

  8. Did Sun.... on Sun & Fujitsu Team On SPARC Chips & System · · Score: 2, Funny
    happen to mention that their business model includes free hardware? (see yesterdays article)

    That is a slick move- offer free hardware- and then team up with a hardware company to pay for it. Brilliant.

  9. Re:Carry a gun on The Urban Geek As A Mugger Magnet? · · Score: 0

    I think the jist is to wear it out in the open. You don't want to conceal it. So you may not need a "concealed" weapons permit. Carrying a shotgun in both hands would be a good deterent. Although, you may be sniped and they'll take you weapon as well.

  10. Re:I thought they had already moved it. on Area 51 Hackers Map Buried Surveillance Network · · Score: 0

    I say the same thing. It make sense- why would you continue to do stuff there when people are craqling all over the place. Now- it is a great diversion.

  13. hijack ware on In The Works: Windows For Supercomputers · · Score: 5, Funny

    Great- when the cluster gets hijacked by spyware and the like- it can send out 3 millions spam emails a hour as opposed to the 5000 a Dell does now.

  14. Nagasaki on Sony's 'Cell'-based TV Ready By 2006 · · Score: 1

    Well- they claim the 300mm sample dies are from their Nagaski plant. Anyone know if they glow in the dark. I wonder if they even need a supply?

    Capital N in Nazi please. We Nazis like to go by the book.

    Seems they fixed the issues anyways.

    It was an attempt at humor designed to make the anonymous cowards of the world come out of their shell. Either that or you can take some Procrit.

  24. Tablets on A Raft Of New Products From Sony Japan · · Score: 4, Interesting
    Well- if my partial reading of partial Japanese is correct, the tablets are not laptop replacements.

    When will some company take a decent processor and throw it into a tablet? I used a Fujitsu tablet the other week and loved it. It makes alot of sense to me to be able to flip the thing over and read like a book. Great for kicking back and reading datasheets. Now, if it just had some gusto- I could put a bunch of design tools on it.

    It is all Japanese to me.
