  1. 70 degrees below zero - and winds up to 150 mph on March of the Penguins Tops Box Offices · · Score: 2, Interesting

    I use the metric system you insensitive clod! Oh... and saw the movie six months ago... it's really nice, really beautiful but the voice-over really sucks !

  2. Coherence ? on 19 million Amps · · Score: 1

    to about four times all the electrical power on Earth.
    19 million amps
    Urr... if it was all about generating amps I don't see the point. Can't you get near infinite amperage with finite power in a supraconducter ?

  3. Wait for the laptop on AMD Hits Milestone in Server Market · · Score: 0, Redundant

    Hum I think AMD64 was also a pretty good reason for home buyers. The next killer would be a good equivalent of pentium M, AMD is still far behind intel on the laptop ground.

  4. Dead man's switch on RFID Tags To Track Foreigners, Identify Dead · · Score: 1

    I for myself would prefer to carry an RFID tag changing everyday, following a encrypted sequence. I cannot be identified with this tag if I'm alive, but if I am dead on do not log on a "I'm not dead" place the encrypting key is revealed and my body can be found.
    What do you mean too geeky ?

  5. It's not on Leo Laporte On UNIX As the Future · · Score: 5, Insightful

    Playstation, XBoxes, Mobile Phones, DVDplayers type of operating system are the future. The OS has been developped far ahead of most people abilities. The future is going towards less and less user control on this OS. Quite the opposite of UNIX.

  6. Imagine a... on Japanese Develop 'Female' Android · · Score: 0, Redundant

    ...beowulf cluster of Japanese androids chicks ! That'd be cool... but can they run linux ?

  7. Does this reminds anyone else on Japanese Develop 'Female' Android · · Score: 0, Redundant

    of sexy-losers' comic-strip scientific erotican experiments ?

  8. Presidential tactic... on Hillary, GTA, and High School Football · · Score: 2, Informative

    And it works, she tops William Hill list (4/1) for potential 2008 US presidents...
    Now the scary stuff: Arnold Schwarzenegger is 6th on the list (16/1)

  9. Space tourism and lottery on A $100 Million Trip to the Moon · · Score: 5, Interesting

    It may not be easy to find someone willing to pay 100M$ for a trip around the moon. Isn't it waay easier to find 10M people in the world willing to pay 10$ to perhaps win a trip around the moon ? I know I would.

  10. Kool on Preview of KDE 3.5 · · Score: -1, Troll

    I kan't wait to see that release koming

  11. Yah but on LinuxCare Resurfaces as Linux Device Vendor · · Score: -1, Redundant

    does it run Linux ? Oh! Sorry, it does...

  12. What's even cooler on Old Floppy Drive Becomes New Turntable · · Score: 1, Funny

    is a DIY turntable out of a 52xCD reader. Provided your on a sufficient amount of drugs.

  13. Who's going to buy it ? on New iBook and Apple mini · · Score: 0, Flamebait

    When x86 mac is coming... it'd feel obsolete very soon.

  14. Oh my no on Eerie Sounds from Saturn · · Score: 1

    I'm sorry, but astronomers renamed Uranus in 2620 to end that stupid joke once and for all.

  15. They could do it right on Full-Motion Ads Come to Videogames · · Score: 1

    If they tried to make the ad fit in the game universe. It is not impossible and could even be funny if not too invading. But, oh, they won't. I wonder if MMOG adopted ads on the walls what would happen. Would you be able to rip the poster off ? To tag it ?

  16. Some people actually buy... on Beginning Of the End For PC Noise · · Score: 1

    items designed to produce a white noise while they sleep ! Look for white noise on google... They sell devices, relaxation CD etc all based on white noise. And you'de be willing to have a PC, whiteout the incredible benefits of the perpetual humming ??

  17. I'd prefer an Intel laptop on AMD and Intel Notebooks Head to Head · · Score: 5, Funny

    Because the machine code is more optimized if I use my Intel compiler.

  18. Yeah but... on Dialup Redeemed: The WiFlyer Modem+Hotspot · · Score: -1, Redundant

    can it run linux ?

  19. Re:I'm really puzzled on Hot Coffee Cooling Off · · Score: 0, Offtopic

    I am a Canadian citizen (though I haven't really lived there so far), does it mean it's my right as a Canadian to hand around the streets topless ?
    Hurrrayyy!

    (/!\ /!\ mind you I read Slashot
    => male
    => no tan

  20. Re:I'm really puzzled on Hot Coffee Cooling Off · · Score: 0, Redundant

    I don't hate America (USA) at all. As a matter of fact I am even moving there next September. My point is, it is strange to be so liberal with guns, and so puritan with alcohol, sex etc.

  21. I'm really puzzled on Hot Coffee Cooling Off · · Score: 1, Insightful

    On the one hand, in the USA, you can easily buy a rifle or a machine-gun with ammunitions. On the other hand you can't see consensual sex in a video game ? Urrr.

  22. Stupid stupid MS on Longhorn's Offical Name is Windows Vista · · Score: 0

    Time to rewatch "The Name" Dilbert's episode.

  23. Re:DDR2 ? on AMD to Adopt DDR2 Next Year · · Score: 1

    Reiser 4 uses dancing trees I know it was far fetched

  24. Driven to distraction on Driven to Distraction by Technology · · Score: 1

    by technology focusing news-site would be more accurate

  25. DDR2 ? on AMD to Adopt DDR2 Next Year · · Score: 2, Funny
