  1. They want experience on video games on What Game Companies Want From Graduates · · Score: 2, Interesting

    If you're not already in the industry, you don't get into the industry.

  2. Bah, I told Google this would happen b4 youtube on Viacom vs. YouTube - Whose Side Are You On? · · Score: 1

    I told them they should be in the buisness of obtaining media rights to do on demand style television online. I told them online video is the next big thing. If Google loses this lawsuit, it will show I was right in two ways. :)

    I'm not on anyone's side though, it's an interesting case if you look at it. For example a Slashdot poster's comments has no affiliation with Slashdot. But what if a Slashdot poster started posting links to free DVDs you can burn on your home computer? Is Slashdot at fault for allowing a forum for that to happen, or is it the poster... Makes you think.

  3. Invention of the Light Saber? on Researchers Building Computers That Run on Light · · Score: 1

    If the light pulses only last a certain amount of time, could you get them to last something like 1/3^8 seconds?

  4. Wow Slashdot really suprised me on The Birth of Semiconductor 2.0 · · Score: 1

    No one posted a virus joke about the organic components. I mean its one thing to see something as totally cliche, but for a mass amount of people to think something is so cliche that everyone avoids it, now that's something.

  5. Re:Gravitational slingshot on New Horizons Probe's Images of Jupiter · · Score: 1

    It must be all that centrifical force :P

  6. Re:To Celebrate.... on Wednesday Is Pi Day · · Score: 1

    Certainly not simultaneously while watching Pi the movie.

  7. Did the Ibanics generation finally graduate? on New Mexico Might Declare Pluto a Planet · · Score: 1

    'as Pluto passes overhead through New Mexico's excellent night skies, it be declared a planet.'

  8. Ok, here's the deal on The Economist Magazine Looks Outside For Insight · · Score: 5, Funny

    We make a beer. But just not any beer. A beer that's brewed in Jamaica mon.

  9. Moding up political items on Political Leaning and Free Software · · Score: 4, Interesting

    Some items a Democrat will mod up are generally the things a Republican will mod down. If you wanted to run a Slashdot style mod system and invite both Reps and Dems to your site, you should have moderation based on their political styles instead of an additive approach. For example: Dems mod an article up 77 points, while Reps mod it down 20. For Democrats, it will be a prime article to read. For Republicans it won't even show up. I think this may be the future of moderation on websites. It doesn't have to stop with just Democrats and Republicans, there are tons of groups that are at odds, or simply different than mainstream.

  10. The famous saying is fitting. on Scientists Say Nerves Use Sound, Not Electricity · · Score: 1

    Shutup, you're getting on my nerves.

  11. Someone has to say it. on Connecticut Wants to Restrict Social Networking · · Score: 4, Insightful

    'If we can put a man on the moon, we can verify age on the Internet,'

    And just like putting a man on the moon can be faked, so can you fake your age on the Internet.

    PS: I am not implying the moon landing was faked.

  12. Speaking from safety on What are the Best Cell Phone Services in the US? · · Score: 0, Offtopic

    Do you realize that some phones will give you cancer more than other phones. I know for a fact that if you send or recieve a call on a Cingular phone near a speaker(like your PC speaker), it uses such a high frequency that it sends electrical impulses through the speaker and you can hear the speaker play even though it's turned off. Try it sometime.

  13. Hasn't the DOD watched Airplane 2 the movie on Remote Control To Prevent Aircraft Hijacking · · Score: 1

    Inevitably there will be some kid who gets a hold of the Airplane's control system and thinking its a video game, it will spiral out of control and crash.

  14. Re:the future on Bill Gates Speaks Out Against Immigration Policies · · Score: 1

    Not to mention the US ban on human cloning. At this rate, with no immigrant labor, and no clone slaves, our future workforce is going to be heavily reliant on robots. And we all know how well that always turns out.

    Yes, in a show of hightened self esteem, Bill Gates installs Windows Vista(TM) on all the robots. Unfortunately one wrong voice command and all the robots are selected to become double the killers of any man.

  15. What, a hasty switch from paper to electronic on Diebold to Withdraw from E-Voting? · · Score: 2, Insightful

    Instead of just letting a company have their way with electronic voting, they really should have done research into the best voting method. I think on Slashdot we've reached a general consensus that there should at least be a verifyable paper trail that each voter can see their votes cast on paper. This would help in case of machine failure, or in case of voter fraud committed by the programmer. I'm no expert on electronic voting, but it doesn't take an expert to see there are flaws with the current electronic voting.

  16. Obligatory on DIY Laptop · · Score: 5, Funny

    Hope he doesn't use Sony Batteries. That sucker looks like it could catch on fire.

  17. Re:I just don't believe I know. on Humans Hardwired to Believe in Supernatural Deity? · · Score: 2, Insightful

    "You can't point to a single effect that this belief has that exist outside of your head."

    God spoke to me,"Good News" then I recieved a Good News bible from my dad. It wasn't just God speaking to me, he also delivered to me the Bible which he spoke about. If you read my website, there is ways you can see that God is real outside of just believing in my miracle. For example, notes about Jesus' life was layed out clearly in the book of Isaiah which was written 700 years before Jesus. The bible predicts future events in older books, and in newer books the events unfold. There is even times when prophecy is fufilled when it wasn't even mentioned to be a prophecy before it happened.

  18. Re:I just don't believe I know. on Humans Hardwired to Believe in Supernatural Deity? · · Score: 2, Interesting

    Prove it? See that's the thing, God only revealed himself to me. It's said in the Bible that if a man doesn't believe Moses, they won't even believe a man who came back from life. If people don't believe a man who came back from life knows God exists, whats the chances that someone will believe me? I try to evangelize to people still. Maybe it helps some to know there's a guy that knows God exists 100%.

  19. I just don't believe I know. on Humans Hardwired to Believe in Supernatural Deity? · · Score: 2, Interesting

    I know God exists, Jesus is Lord. I wouldn't be telling you if I didn't know. I'm also not still a liar or God would be mad with me. I could go on, but I figured if you're talking about God, I might as well tell you he exists.

  20. Sun May Be Warming Both Earth and Mars on Sun May Be Warming Both Earth and Mars · · Score: 4, Funny

    News at 11, the ocean is wet.

  21. Re:Hmmm... on Astronaut Has 'Wasabi Spill' in Space · · Score: 1

    How would they store my favorite food: Sushi? I'm pretty sure they'd dehydrate it before launch >:)

  22. Re:Ninjas on Reflectivity Reaches a New Low · · Score: 1

    You welcome naked ninjas? I guess we're bringing back the old Irish fighting style.

  23. Re:Complaints are fair, but Blizzard has done wors on Blizzard Exposes Detailed WoW Character Data · · Score: 1

    I'd like to see you move as fast as the pros

    Heh, I was the first to 1500 wins in Warcraft3. I was at one point #1 in 1v1,2v2, AND 3v3. Our 3v3 record was 200 wins and 1 loss, went 173 wins before our first loss because my teammates were overinflated with their self esteem."Hey I'm going to tech straight to Chimeras protect me, ok I'll tech straight to Frost Wyrms, protect me." Then I'm like,"Ooook, I guess I'll pump out mass footmen and try and fight 3 armies by myself."

  24. Re:Artificial intelligence and intellectual proper on Marvin Minsky On AI · · Score: 1

    I think the first AI will work like this: AI can sense the world around it and interact with things, but has no goal. You have to state in natural language format its goal(s), or it will sit there and do nothing.

  25. Isn't this a dupe? on Open Access For Research Gaining Steam · · Score: 2

    The link I had to click was already clicked by me, and I think it was because I read it earlier on Slashdot.
