  1. RetroReflector on US Military Tests Non-Lethal Heat Ray · · Score: 1

    It's ages since I did physics but if the crowd had metal Retroreflectors http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Retroreflector could the system handle the feedback? Properly made they should direct the microwaves straight back at the transmitting array.

  2. Re:chicken or egg on Sandals and Ponytails Behind Slow Linux Adoption · · Score: 1
    No, her real name's actually Kate. She just pretends to be a man so she doesn't have to go on the game to feed her ailing father.

    Well somebody beat me to it so I'll just provide the link http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bob_(Blackadder_chara cter)

  3. Signatures on 42 *IS* The answer to Life, the Universe and Zeta · · Score: 1
    a(n)g(n) (log T)^(n^2)

    I'm now timing just time just how long before I see this as an email or Slahdot signature.

  4. Why bother with IE on No IE7 For 2k, Now In Extended Service · · Score: 1
    IE broke on my WinXP box over a year ago and I've quite happily been using Firefox ever since. All the updates including SP2 havn't fixed it and I havn't bothered to have a closer look to fix it myself, I don't need to.

    If you've got any spare CPU cycles go here Spread Firefox

  5. Isn't this the space station in space? on Space Station Turning Into a Trash Heap · · Score: 1

    Why not just strap the stuff to the outside of the station? I mean they have all the space they need outside. For sale - Moon on a stick

  6. Wot? no Keys? on Microsoft Customers Get No Bang for Buck · · Score: 2, Informative

    Our Company recently purchased Software assurance for Small business server for ungrades to SBS 2003. first we get a email saying go the website and activate the license. So off we dutifully go and full in the webform and get a authorisation number and a peice of paper saying that you can use SBS2003. We wait.... no disks to install from arrive, no links or files for download even (and this is 5CD worths). Chasing our supplier about disks it takes him 3 weeks to find the media and $50 extra charge. Finally done! Wait no? Last week while filing that and other stuff away notice that the CD's came without any product keys. So we're back to our supplier who is trying to find out whats going on. The cost to me has been minimal since I have no plans to upgrade the server till the end of the year, but my suppliers swearing is impressive as this is costing him a lot of time...
