    Aahhh, that explains why some people are so dense! :D

  2. Re:Looses... dear lord on Game Theory Computer Model Backs Net Neutrality · · Score: 1


    *shame*

    I blame the 20 year old keyboard attached to the machine on which I typed that post. ;)

    Or the lack of coffee..

    Or both *ugh* :)

  3. Re:Does that NASA built a chip mean anything? on NASA Backs Quantum Computing Claim · · Score: 0, Redundant

    I thought that the first rule of quantum computing is that you may or may not be talking about quantum computing simultaneously.

  4. Re:Looses... dear lord on Game Theory Computer Model Backs Net Neutrality · · Score: 1

    Yes, we hardly new 127.0.0.1, because he was never at home..

    One has to love all those tiny synchronicities that are floating by in this funny Universe.. ;)

  6. Re:How many people really believe in these things? on IBM Targets UFOs, Ghosts, and Goblins With Search Tool · · Score: 1

    And if the weapon that is used to shoot it down is big enough, I'm afraid that in some cases it won't even be an O(bject) anymore.. which reduces the chances to make that "U" and "I"(dentified).

    No wonder it is hard to get some definite proof about this subject ;)

  7. This is not a dupe! on The Blackest Material · · Score: 1

    The day that we don't get dupes anymore at Slashdot.. now that would be a truly black day since Slashdot would have removed the policy of giving us another chance to reflect on the meaning of the article in question.

  8. Re:PE software engineers on RIAA's 'Expert' Witness Testimony Now Online · · Score: 1

    "I once was asked, about 20 years ago, to address a meeting of PE's, and at a loss to find a subject that may have some common ground, I picked up a cable transformer, one of those little 50 to 300 ohm gismo's you had to use to hook your games up to the tv with 25 years ago when they all has 300 ohm twin lead inputs screw terminals on the back."

    A beautiful choice of words, 'puntastic!' :)

  11. Re:Fascinating on First Dynamically Balancing Biped Robot · · Score: 1

    Perhaps it will run around without arms, singing: "C'mon, c'mon.. dooo the locomotion with me!" :D

    Then we could perhaps run the following scenario:

    1. Create singing, dynamically balanced bot
    2. Name it the "Kylie bot"
    3. ?!?
    4. Profit! :P

  14. Re:I'm not so sure. on Introduction to Linden Scripting Language · · Score: 1

    Well, maybe I should try if those scripts already work on our world! :-)

    I would like to suggest to start your experiments by looking up suitable scripts at sites about "dating", "how to meet hot women", "NLP" and so on. ;-D

    I think that the last thing SCO wants is a clone of PJ. ;)

  24. Re:Give new meaning on Water Logic Gates Built at MIT · · Score: 1

    If they run it at night is is a "night adder"..

    And when the water evaporates.. does it become a "puff adder"?
