  1. Re:Exciting! on Huge Tesla Coils Will Recreate Natural Lightning · · Score: 1

    Lightening: the effect you get at dawn. Or when turning a light switch on. Opposite of darkening. :)

    One. Are prosecutions proceeding against Berlusconi, who, if I recall correctly, caller her 'unfuckable' (chancellor, president, what's the difference?)

    Two. I (hypothetically) have slashdot mod points. Does Thailand regard them as like/share? If so, which is worst? Funny, Informative or Insightful?

  3. Re:If Everything was "security"? on Penguin Yanking Kindle Books From Libraries · · Score: 1

    DRM, draconian or not, is fundamentally flawed, and cannot be fixed.

    Or mind altering.

    You forgot to mention the thousands of kittens they kill each year to make them, too...

    Then again, that's a positive.

    And burnt milk. Give them half a chance, and they'd burn the water.

    That high volume cup cake with 'low quality' ingredients probably actually has far higher ingredients.

    Probably actually? I think you just made my day. (but today, that wasn't hard) :^)

  8. Re:Audio jack to get a standard connector? on Controlling a Robot From a Smartphone's Headphone Jack · · Score: 1

    Well, if it was music from the Von Neumann Suite, and there were 2 of them, I'd expect them to mate.

  10. Re:Past the tipping point on Climate Panel Says To Prepare For Weird Weather · · Score: 1

    You say sceptical like it's a bad thing. I'm not surprised that those that think about things, rather than 'believe' in them, are inclined to scepticism. Given population problems, we probably shouldn't encourage things that tend to increase world population (like completely eradicating hunger) Callous? Perhaps. Pragmatic? Definitely.

    Us kids from before computers in highschool were amazed by the early micros and built our own - it didn't have conventional keyboards, or screens, being able to insert extra opcodes was a luxury. Oh yeah, and get off my lawn! :^)

  15. Re:Ice Cream Sandwich? Really? on Android Ice Cream Sandwich SDK Released · · Score: 1

    She uses a phone named after the Greek god of strife and discord, and thought you were kidding about desserts? Perhaps they'll make a mistake, and name one after a desert. Nullabor, anyone?

  16. Re:Cheap? on Ballmer Slams Android As Cheap and Overcomplicated · · Score: 1

    Well, it has a lower cost to get owned. But perhaps that's what the link got to the point of, eventually. I only read the first few on the link
