  2. memetendo on Nintendo Announces 3D Successor of Nintendo DS · · Score: 1

    they just follow the washing powder marketing trends. Bio, Non-Bio, Dual action, Color, 3D. whereas Sony and Microsoft are 1 blade, 2 blades, 3 Blades...

  3. control the artists on MP3 Player Tax Proposed In Canada · · Score: 1

    it looks like a clever way for the government to be the major source of income for artists, that way they can remove funding from artists that rebel against the system.

    Will CPUs be measured by the Bob:Alice ratio from now on?

  7. Re:Optocouplers on New Material Sets Stage For All-Optical Computing · · Score: 1

    Even better, Make the optoelectronics in graphene too.

    Would love a quick turn around on technologies such as this, even if for a quick novelty factor at first.

    Even something as powerful as a 486 would surfice, although the mhz would probably not be an issue.

  8. Re:Be careful! on Write Bits Directly Onto a Hard Drive Platter? · · Score: 1

    I've noticed a full hard drive seems to weight more than an empty one. But that may just be a placebo effect.

    wish I could MOD you up.

    It could also, lower the server load when new tickets start to sell.

  10. Just change the name on 8-Year Fan-Made Game Project Shut Down By Activision · · Score: 1

    "Thy Quest of Kings" would be fitting!

  11. Netbook on Core i5 and i3 CPUs With On-Chip GPUs Launched · · Score: 1

    So it's a netbook cpu/gpu combo? On a desktop isn't that a waste of transistor, because who will use this GMA POS.

  12. fps idea on AbleGamers Reviews Games From a Disability Standpoint · · Score: 1

    Reminds me of this idea for an FPS I had whereby you're a soldier that get blinded in battle and gets given new eyes but instead of standard vision it's distance-vision.

  13. Space? on CERN Physicist Warns About Uranium Shortage · · Score: 1

    We can't harvest any oil from space, but I'm sure we could with Uranium?

  14. Try this on Making Old Games Look Good On Modern LCDs? · · Score: 2, Informative
  15. Re:Radius on Micro-Black Holes Make Poor Planet Killers · · Score: 1

    Just made me think, one could make a tiny space station with the same gravity as earth. Am I right?

    And it wouldn't have to spin to create reverse gravity.

  16. money reasons on Nintendo Announces DSi XL · · Score: 1

    Or maybe they struck a deal with an lcd manufacturer that gave them a really good price on some over sized stock?

    And don't forget to mention more ecofriendly sharks.

  22. tech vs manpower on Hitler's Stealth Fighter · · Score: 2, Insightful

    It's quite an amazing feat of the German scientists, if they hadn't scapegoated the jews to get into power they may have also had the atom bomb but years before the usa.

    The allies only won the war because they just threw a lot more bodies than there were German bullets for the invasion of normandy.

  23. The greenest game to play on Maingear Touts New Rig As "Planet's Greenest Gaming PC" · · Score: 1

    THERMONUCLEAR WAR

    Just make sure to just aim for China and the USA

  24. not only in soviet russia on Why Linux Is Not Yet Ready For the Desktop · · Score: 1

    desktop isn't ready for the linux!!

    in the corporate system there are companies that have only just moved from 16bit windows apps, they are stuck at whatever os they are with now, and would probably not take the plunge with linux especially if they cannot port old 16 bit applcations to 32/64bit.

    bit corporation are so afraid of change that it can be their downfall, the new kid on the block with a dynamic team of programmers can make for a smoother system, obviously a larger company can benefit from their preexisting market share and managerial experience.

  25. Google Sort on Open Source Solution Breaks World Sorting Records · · Score: 2, Interesting

    Im looking forward to sorting my search results by Date, Title, Description, Author, etc..
