  1. You need free energy on A Home-Made Power Supply that Lasts 1000 Years? · · Score: 1

    http://guns.connect.fi/innoplaza/energy/story/John /

    Course, you may not believe that stuff like that exists, but then again, you can always try.

  2. Re:Google on Wordpress Banned by Google for Spamming · · Score: 1

    You can go to a site on google (link below) to report spam as it is, so, I mean, its not as if you cant report spam at all, but to have a "report spam link" on the bottom of the search page linking to here http://www.google.com/contact/spamreport.html would not be such a bad idea, but to make it automatic (as was suggested in grand-grand parent post only opens up the possibility for spamming and other badness.

  3. Re:Google on Wordpress Banned by Google for Spamming · · Score: 5, Insightful

    It wouldnt block them automatically, it only triggers a human review.

  4. Re:How far behind on Space Shuttle Goes Back to Work · · Score: 1

    Its more of necessity then anything else, they dont have the money to develop new tech.

  5. How far behind on Space Shuttle Goes Back to Work · · Score: 1

    how far behind is the space station at this point?

    Very.

    Good to see the Space Shuttle working again, now NASA really needs to get working on the replacement to the Shuttle, they cant last much longer at this point.

  6. Now I will take on Senator Clinton Slams GTA · · Score: 1

    A wild guess that she never even played the game, only asked if "is it true you can have sex with prostitutes" or "can you kill people?" If she had actually played the game she would have realized that for all this hoo-haa rarara stuff going on, its not actually that bad. Postal is probaby a worse game. GTA:III, GTA:VC, GTA:SA all are while not being tame, pretty unrealistic.

    I dont know of anyone who after playing GTA:III decided to get a rocket launcher from an army surplus store, shoot down a police helicopter and then take out an AK-47 and blast the living dayligts out of 100 moronic cops. How can you believe a game where characters say "my mothers my sister?" Thats a real good description of reality there.

    I suggest that Hillary get her head out of her ass before it gets so covered in s**t that she can see the light of day.

  7. obscure? on Microsoft's Tips for Buying an MP3 Player · · Score: 1

    Some obscure indie rock tune or rare jazz performance you heard on the radio

    as if that even gets on the radio.

  8. Re:Tough choice on 24 Hours In The Matrix · · Score: 0, Flamebait

    Okay, gamespy wins, but do they have Space Invaders and Missile Command? hmmm.....

  9. Re:Tough choice on 24 Hours In The Matrix · · Score: 0, Troll

    Has to be E! online, they have their own TV channel.

  10. Re:I took the blue pill on The Matrix Online Launches · · Score: 1

    I took the moldy yellow one! Vevitra!

  11. Re:Wow! on Utah Governor Signs Net-Porn Bill · · Score: 1

    Slashdot never posts followups though, pr0n must mean a lot to the editors.

  12. Re:2700 city blocks? on E3 Expo Space Sells Out · · Score: 1

    So, I guess this means when we get hype from the industry, we should divide by 100?

    Like how PS3s new CELL processor only runs at 40mhz? Damn, they fooled us all.

  13. Re:Holy Bible? on Google's Library Up and Running · · Score: 1

    But when you search for "Holy Bible" "Bible" or "The Bible" you would expect to find the book itself, not a history of it. Its like searching for "Romeo and Juliet" and getting results for "In Depth Character Analysis of Romeo and Juliet"

  14. Re:Holy Bible? on Google's Library Up and Running · · Score: 1

    Its actually the people who translate it that hold the copyright.

  15. Re:Holy Bible? on Google's Library Up and Running · · Score: 1

    Do you need to search for a specific version of Romeo and Juliet? Do I need the Pengin classic edition, or is the Modern Classics Library one needed? Suppose they only scanned the Modern Classics one and because I did not choose that version it would not show up on the search page.

    Having to search for a specific version should not be necessary, even if it just defaults no the KJV or something.

  16. Re:Holy Bible? on Google's Library Up and Running · · Score: 1

    Perhaps its because the leftist-center posters are the most vocal and that when someone does make a pro-bush comment its gets modded down as a flamebait or a troll?

  17. Re:Holy Bible? on Google's Library Up and Running · · Score: 2, Interesting

    Surely there is a Bible somewhere in Harvards library. There is no Koran listed also. Ferhaps thef are staying away from scanning religious books so far?

  18. Re:Holy Bible? on Google's Library Up and Running · · Score: 0

    While it may be available in othe places, the sort of goal of Google Books is to scan classic literature. Like it or not (for all you athiests out there) the Bible is a classic.

  19. Holy Bible? on Google's Library Up and Running · · Score: 2, Interesting

    Surprisingly enough, they have not scanned the Holy Bible yet. You think with it being the #1 best selling book of al time they would have, but I guess not.

    Holy Bible missing

  20. Did anyone on Ask Jeeves Bought for $2 billion · · Score: 5, Insightful

    Really ever use ask jeeves? I mean, I used it once or twice several years ago, but is it really that popular to be bought for 2 billion? I cant think of anyone who uses it consistently, or even rarely.

  21. Re:PSPCasting... on PSPCasting · · Score: 2, Interesting

    Its like Podcasting, but your not broadcasting anything, your just playing videos, wheres the casting part of PSPcasting?

  22. Re:Max Payne 2 - The Fall Of Max Payne on Everything is Possible - Storytelling in Games · · Score: 1

    And its only 19.99 CDN for the MP1 and Mafia "double pack" complete with strategy (you dont really need them) guides at Future Shop/Best Buy. Its like the StarCraft: BattleChest, you cant go wrong.

  23. Re:Pascal and Other Dead Languages I know on Learning a Language in the Digital Age · · Score: 1

    You forgot Turing

  24. I dont trust on Faulty Chips Might Just be 'Good Enough' · · Score: 1

    A "deffective" chip to do my taxes thanks. Home tax software will only increase in popularity. Stuff like adding numbers matters. Thats a "mission critical" piece of software there, not to mention these chips would be useless to any distributed computing project or databases or work in Excel for example.

    Bad idea.

  25. Re:Freedom to innovate? Not! on CSS Support IE 7.0's Weakest Link · · Score: 1

    Microsoft hasnt broken the Windows standard yet. Mostly because it IS the standard but thats not really the point.....
