  1. Loss of service on UK Demands Sourcecode for Strike Fighters · · Score: 2, Funny

    "...as [the planes] could effectively be "switched off" by the Americans without warning."

    I wouldn't want to be the pilot when that happens. :-)

  2. Small scale failing on This Week's Government Cyborg Animal · · Score: 1

    A former director said in 1975: "When we fail, we fail big."

    So insects were the natural choice!

  3. From the article on NVIDIA and Dell Display Quad-SLI System · · Score: 1

    "Damn that's a nice looking case!" No wait! It really IS on fire!

  4. And now to boot it up.... on NVIDIA and Dell Display Quad-SLI System · · Score: 5, Funny

    *Lights dim*
    *PSU explodes*

    "Wow! 3FPS faster!"

  5. Re:You know what that means, don't you? on Microsoft to Require 64-bit Processors · · Score: 1

    Oh, and before someone corrects me, I know it's 4GB for 32-bit. The other 2GB is for the 64-bit malware to run in! :)

  6. You know what that means, don't you? on Microsoft to Require 64-bit Processors · · Score: 3, Funny

    >2GB minimum memory requirement! :)

  7. Re:RAID-0 on Review: Monarch Computer's Nemesis FX-57 7800 SLI Gaming · · Score: 1

    Your thinking of RAID 10, I believe.

    RAID 01 would be a RAID 1 array of RAID 0 arrays.

  8. Re:RAID-0 on Review: Monarch Computer's Nemesis FX-57 7800 SLI Gaming · · Score: 1

    How about RAID 10? Needs four disks minimum IIRC, but faster than just two RAID 1s!

  9. Re:this just in... on Review: Monarch Computer's Nemesis FX-57 7800 SLI Gaming · · Score: 1

    When submitting ads to slashdot, it's important to remember the maxim "scarcity sells". While the site may have been passed over without a second thought ordinarily, the belief that the site will go down soon attracts visitors, while others will likely wait to see what you have to offer. In this way, a slashdotting can actually prove beneficial (just don't tell the sysadmin I said that.)

  10. Re:Fine but... on Review: Monarch Computer's Nemesis FX-57 7800 SLI Gaming · · Score: 1

    Does it come along with it's small nuclear power plant ?

    Do you really want to pay for the delivery of that?

  11. Re:My favortie board on Review: Monarch Computer's Nemesis FX-57 7800 SLI Gaming · · Score: 1

    Hmm...I haven't kept tabs on integrated sound tech. Has it gone beyond AC'97 codecs then?

  12. Re:PSU on Review: Monarch Computer's Nemesis FX-57 7800 SLI Gaming · · Score: 1

    Now Antec I have experience with. They make some great PSUs, their "True Power" line has proven reliable.

    Integrated sound is going to require more CPU time. If you can offload it to a card, you can leave the processor for more important things.

  14. PSU on Review: Monarch Computer's Nemesis FX-57 7800 SLI Gaming · · Score: 1, Insightful

    Is that a quality PSU? Because that sysytem's probably going to need it.

  15. Re:Beginning of a B-Movie? on UK Scientists to Create Embryo From Two Women · · Score: 1

    First, second, whatever. The point is one is fertilised.
    Oh and while I'm replying to myself:

    The researchers say they have no intention of allowing the embryo to develop into a fully formed baby.

    Just thought that should be noted.

  16. Re:Beginning of a B-Movie? on UK Scientists to Create Embryo From Two Women · · Score: 2, Informative

    I realise this is a joke, but it should be noted that the first egg is fertilised.

    "XPCOM: OS Defence" being the most popular.
