  1. Re:Logitech MX Revolution on Best Mouse For Programming? · · Score: 1

    If you can find one, I would recommend the MX 1000 over the MX Revolution. It has the same advantages of the Revolution, as mentioned by the parent post, but (in my experience at least) it fits the hand much more nicely. It is strictly a right handed mouse though.

  2. Re:Chair sales in Redmond skyrocket on Microsoft Workers Prefer Google · · Score: 2, Funny

    Well, there being approximately 3 chair vendors in Redmond, I'd say this shall be interesting.

  3. Re:my dsl, my test... on ISPs Offer Faster Speeds, Why Don't We Get Them? · · Score: 1

    Hmm... You seem to be on the same plan I am.

  4. 6*x=35 ??? on Glimpses of How it's made, 6 Minute Manufacturing · · Score: 1

    So, if it is in 6 minute segments, and is 35 minutes long, what happened to the last minute/what do they do with the extra 5 minutes?

  5. EMP on Paul Allen the 'Accidental Zillionaire' · · Score: 1

    I bet he smashes the guitar... no? It's early.

  6. Re:Just like Apollo on Ham Hears Mars Orbiter 45 Million Miles From Earth · · Score: 1

    Distance to the moon: |earth|space space|moon| Distance to Mars: |earth|space space space space space space space space... space space|Mars| I think this is a bit bigger.

  7. Sticks... on Popular Toys Throughout the Ages · · Score: 5, Interesting

    I contend that the stick is probably the oldest "toy" ever used (although it could be debated that it was only a tool). When humans first started using tools, they were in the form of sticks, rocks, etc. Children probably learned the use of these objects through play, so it is sensable to assume that ancient kids played with sticks. I know that when I was a child, a stick was one of my favorite toys (it could be used like a sword, drum stick, or almost anything)

  8. Web based... on Google to Buy Opera? · · Score: 2, Funny

    Come on, looking at Google's history, I'd expect them to do something web based. You know, just point your browser to broswer.google.com and begin surfing... wait a minute.

  9. Re:Final Straw! on GMail Adds Virus Protection · · Score: 1

    It is simple, don't zip them, rar them. Gmail can't scan inside a .rar file and see an executable. Plus the file size is smaller than a zip so you can send larger executables.

  10. Re:GCC Prepping, all right on Prepping For The 360 · · Score: 1

    Sorry, but there are no screws on the outside of the case according to an earlier article.

  11. Slashdot Not New on Have Geeks Gone Mainstream? · · Score: 1

    Does anyone else find it interesting that whenever a mainstream newsource references /. it does it in a way that makes it seem like a brand new community.

  12. Re:The line up so far on The Death of Used Game Sales? · · Score: 1

    PS3 has the same old controllers..? http://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/en/d/de/Imag ePs305.jpg I think this is a bit of a change, even if it is not a final design.

  13. Re:Can't blind on purpose on Set PHASRs On Stun · · Score: 1

    I don't see the logic in blinding somebody while they are driving. I assume there will be med. teams standing by next to these or something.

  14. Short Skirts on UK Female Sci-Fi Viewers Now Outnumber Males · · Score: 5, Insightful

    ...And they mention Xena?

  15. Re:Obligatory Comments on Space Elevator Gets FAA Clearance · · Score: 1

    Last time I checked, we had no way of making enough to stretch out that far.

  16. Re:Good thing too... on Scientists Discover Possible Anti-Aging Gene · · Score: 1

    Well... If elephants did breed as fast as rabbits I'd probably keep a couple in a cage http://www.ranfer.com/Ranfer/html/Catalogue/images /VA12pg.jpg . At least I could ride one then...

  17. Great quotes on One Hundred Years of E=MC2 · · Score: 1

    "E=mc^2 is crankin'!"

    "We are fortunately not bathed in that level of energy because we would first get sterilized, then it would mess with our DNA, then we would die."

  18. Re:Rumor: New Mind Interface from Apple on Scientists 'Read Thoughts' Using Brain Scans · · Score: 1

    And we press it before it leaves the factory.

  19. Re:medical stuff on Who Wants a 3D Scanner, Anyway? · · Score: 1

    Just one question... How do you scan a bone if you LOST it? I don't think someone else's bone would fit quite as nicely.

  20. Eye of God? on Newly Formed Solar System · · Score: 1

    This looks similar to the "Eye of God" the hubble space telescope hubble found. http://antwrp.gsfc.nasa.gov/apod/image/0305/helix0 3_hst_big.jpg

  21. Maybe... on Martian Methane May Come From Rocks · · Score: 1

    We won't get to welcome our new martian overlords.

  22. Tommorow's Paper on Bacterial Printing Press · · Score: 1

  23. Re:Coincidence? on Space Weather Warning · · Score: 2, Funny

    In other news, a black cat was spotted walking underneath an open ladder carrying a salt shaker. This so startled the man on the ladder that he dropped the mirror he was holding, shattering the mirror, and crushing the cat.

  24. Multiplayer? on New Gunstar Heros For GBA · · Score: 3, Interesting

    I don't know about anyone else, but my favorite part about Gunstar Heroes was the multiplayer. I dearly hope that multiplayer co-op will be included on the cart, and hopefully single cart so there is a chance of somebody else playing with you. I also wonder how they would pull off multiplayer with such a small screen; would it be free ranging for both player? Or possibly four players? I can only say, I can't wait.

  25. Re:Not replication on Self-Replicating Robots · · Score: 1

    Well, it's kind of like mitosis.
