  1. Re:Oh Canada on Bill Proposes Canadian Cellphone Unlocking Rights · · Score: 2, Funny

    Well, they built the aqueduct...

  2. VHDL for teaching on VHDL or Verilog For Learning FPGAs? · · Score: 1

    Verilog gives you enough rope to easily hang yourself. VHDL gives you so little rope you'll want to hang yourself. As a vehicle for teaching H/W design though, I think VHDL would be better. It's much more explicit and rules oriented, and looks like you're describing H/W. Once you've learned VHDL, picking up Verilog is fairly trivial. I would think going in the other direction would be a bit harder. Language Bias Disclaimer: I've been using VHDL for 10 years, and Verilog for 2...

  3. Re:Sad but true on How Comic Fans & Shops Are Stereotyped · · Score: 1

    Umm, EVERYONE normal in Norway...hmmm no not so much. Anyone familiar with the Black Metal scene http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Early_Norwegian_black_metal_scene and the suicide/murder shenanigans between Mayhem and Burzum might not call that behavior normal. You know, rearranging your dead friends body for pictures, making necklaces out of his skull, all sorta not normal in my world...

  4. Re:what about the lucky sevens? on The Next Three Days are the x86 Days · · Score: 5, Funny

    All my life, in my surroundings, if someone asked you the date something was going to happen, you'd say "August 22nd"

    Wow, what a boring place. What did you guys do for the other 364 days?

  5. TwoLive on Microsoft Officially Announces Anti-Virus Product · · Score: 1

    How long before we see Microsoft TwoCare Live, to fix the holes and crap in OneCare Live? Maybe they can call it TwoLive Care. I hope the lead developer is Martinez....

  6. Re:Not worth It. on NVIDIA GeForce 7800 GS For AGP Launched · · Score: 1, Informative

    Ideally, I'd like to see a system with both an AGP and a PCI-E expansion port
    You mean, a board like this: http://www.asrock.com/product/775Dual-880Pro.htm
    or this, for the AMD crowd: http://www.asrock.com/product/939Dual-SATA2.htm

  7. Re:orcboard, open source robotics controller on Lego Mindstorms NXT Robotics Announced · · Score: 0

    The other day, I was thinking of removing the actual microcontroller in the mindstorm to change it for a Atmel AVR. It would be less powerful, but at least we could program in C instead of LabVIEW

    You have heard of BrickOS (previously LegOS) haven't you? What kind of geek are you if you're not already programming in C on the Mindstorms?

  8. Re:I wonder.. on Do Not Call List Under Attack · · Score: 0

    The scariest thing about all that spam is that someone, somewhere, is buying the crap these people are selling. If no one bought it, the spam would stop. I guess there really is a sucker born every minute. I'm depressed now. Hey would you look at that... Cyberonics Pacemaker w00t!

  9. Re:Before they get slashdotted...Again on Update on the Optimus Keyboard · · Score: 1, Funny

    They should bundle Duke Nukem Forever with this keyboard, at least their release dates line up *cough* never going to see the OLED light of day *cough*

  10. Re:Classic toy on Classic Toys For Christmas? · · Score: 1

    So, by that logic, we should buy our kids cigarettes, booze, hookers, and illegal drugs for christmas.
    Can you adopt me?

  11. Re:Canadian-Hungarian notation on Why Offshore When Canada's Next Door? · · Score: 5, Funny

    Close, but we would actually say this: sZedBufferEh
