  1. Did anyone else hear the word... on Biomimetic Robots: A Photo Gallery · · Score: 1

    Runaway screamed in their ear when they read this?

  2. Hmm... on Stanford Device Cools Body Inside Out · · Score: 1

    The book "Sniglets" describes a more rudimentary version of this.
    'Pedaeration, n. The perfect temperature achieved by keeping one leg under the covers and one leg hanging out the bed.'

    My personal improvement on pedaeration is to put it under the fitted sheet so it directly contacts the waterbed (waterbed required). Most effective.

    And here I had this ginormously expen^H^H^H^H^Hbrilliant plan I was going to sel^H^H^Hsuggest to them to get it unstuck...

  4. But... on IBM Introduces Biometric Thinkpad · · Score: 5, Interesting

    will IBM include linux support?

  5. O-kaaayy... on Camera that Sees through Smoke and Fog Underway · · Score: 0

    So, is this a good thing or a bad thing?
    Of course, the answer is, It depends on what it's used for. What it's used for depends on them who use it. This raises the question, Who should be allowed to use it?

  6. Two Words on iMac G5 Porn Roundup · · Score: 1

    Stupid...warranty
    Says it all, wouldn't you say? Or maybe someone's not quite on the ball when it comes to reading the warranty terms.

    You'd think they have enough lousy remakes to keep themselves busy, but no...

  10. Re:It's yearly, not monthly on Human-Powered Spam Filtering · · Score: 1

    Okay, but only because you asked: http://it.slashdot.org/comments.pl?sid=122462&cid= 10297598 And that's all. I'm not going to make a big argument out of it.

  11. Re:It's yearly, not monthly on Human-Powered Spam Filtering · · Score: 1

    The comments that point out that the whole thing is a sham and a hoax.

  13. Hmm, I wonder on Treo Bluetooth Bounty Efforts Unsuccessful · · Score: 1

    no developer has come forward to claim it

    That means a lot more to most people anyway.

  17. Awrighht... on Remote-controlled Bolts and Screws · · Score: 1

    with intelligent fasteners, installing and replacing entertainment systems becomes as simple as pressing a remote control button.

    I for one welcome our new intelligent unfastener overlords...
