  1. Re:Can robots pee? on U.S. Will Use Robots to Patrol Water Supply · · Score: 0

    Could you imagine a Beowulf Cluster of peeing robots?

  2. How about this plan? on RFID Implants for Spanish Revelers · · Score: 1

    1) Open a trendy nightclub in Barcelona.
    2) Implant RFID tags into your customers.
    3) ???
    4) Profit!

    Sometimes it is just too easy.

  3. Re:Huh ? Why ? on Amateur Rocket to Carry Ham Radio Payload to Space · · Score: 1

    The first amateur rocket in space = Interesting
    Suggesting to send a Ham sandwich instead of a Ham Radio != Interesting

  4. Re:oh yeah? on Amateur Rocket to Carry Ham Radio Payload to Space · · Score: 1

    "If successful it would mark the first amateur rocket launch into space." What about NASA?

    NASA lost its amateur status long ago. In fact, it was so long ago that it never had it to begin with.

  5. Re:Huh ? Why ? on Amateur Rocket to Carry Ham Radio Payload to Space · · Score: 0, Offtopic

    "Huh? Why?" is right, like how is this post interesting, unless trolls are suddenly interesting.

  6. Re:Availability on Eclipse Finally Gets Code Folding · · Score: 1

    FWIW I have been using M6 'in production' for awhile now and have not had any problems. I am looking forward for the stable 3.0 release though.

  7. Re:It's coming right for us! on City-Sized Asteroid to Pass Earth This Fall · · Score: 1

    If we yell as loud as we can "It's coming right at us!!!" ... then can we shoot it with nukes anyways? Seems like resonable self defense to me.

  8. Re:Catch that puppy on City-Sized Asteroid to Pass Earth This Fall · · Score: 1

    Interesting thought. I would be careful though. even considering if you did not cause a collision, what about things like tides and weather patterns that could be disrupted? On the other hand, the risk might be worth all of those ressources.

  9. Re:The question I always ask is on Programming As If Performance Mattered · · Score: 2, Funny

    Is the time it take me to do the performance optimization worth it in time that I could be browsing /.

  10. Re:It sucked on First Java AP Computer Science Exam Complete · · Score: 1

    You are probably just trolling but I'll bite...
    Thats like saying "I don't know anything about god or religion. And yes I am a good preacher"
    You have got to be kidding. What good java coder (enterprise or not) is not at least familiar with the java.util.* package?

  11. Re:people - NEW SIG on 'Civilization on Mars' Claims Debunked · · Score: 0

    I am not denying the existence of stupidity, or of stupid people.

    Thanks for the new sig!

  12. Re:Are there any... on Meet Lucy, The Orangutan Robot · · Score: 1, Informative

    You can also check out JOONE

    It is a java based open source (developed on sourceforge) Neural Network Framework.

    ...welcome our new spamming and ddosing overlords...

  14. Re:Happened to a friend on PhatBot Trojan Spreading Rapidly On Windows PCs · · Score: 1

    Happened to a friend? hmmm sure... Dude, its ok. A lot of us look a porn, although you are kinda sick for using Outlook.

  15. Re:Leisure Suit Larry? on Are Game Magazines Turning Into Men's Magazines? · · Score: 1

    Very cool... Can't wait for the hot tub scenes

  16. Leisure Suit Larry? on Are Game Magazines Turning Into Men's Magazines? · · Score: 4, Funny

    I just wish that they redid the "Leisure Suit Larry" games with today's graphic capabilities.

  17. Re:"Larry, Moe & Curly Consulting" on U.S. Interior Dept. Unplugged... Again · · Score: 1

    Damn... I guess that we will never hear from IO ERROR again...

  18. Re:M1 Tank Platoon! on Do Videogame Skills Transfer To Real Life? · · Score: 1

    Not to nitpick but they only had the M1 during the first Gulf War. M1A1 came later. M1A2 after that. No prob though. I agree that gaming has helped my gunnery skills (scored 872 on my first Tank Table VIII).

  19. Bigger Paper on Epson's Female Printer · · Score: 1

    Great.... now I'm gonna see a lot of spam for "Increase your paper size now!"

    Psssst... hey buddy, come here... I got this great deal on linux insurance... not interested? hmmm, well how abaout this bridge?

  21. SCO Thinks... on Startup to Offer Open Source Insurance · · Score: 2, Insightful
    From the article:

    SCO believes that its $699 per processor Intellectual Property License for Linux, however, is a better idea. "Ours is certainly the most reasonable way to go and certainly the safest way to go," he said.

    Kinda using the words 'reasonable' and 'safest' loosely huh?
