  8. Re:The cheapest way, wireless repeaters every 100' on Wide Area Wireless on a Shoestring Budget? · · Score: 1

    Well, if he has a shoestring budget, perhaps he can tie shoestrings together and then to an "employee router" which would translate the packets, determine the destination, and send it along the proper shoestring (attached to one of his fingers) to the target employee. TCP/IP over pigeons could be used as a backup system.

  9. Re:Failed: Mac Mini to PC Hack on Mac mini to PC Hack · · Score: 2, Funny

    90% of the budget for the design of the Mac Mini was spent funding caffeine for the designers to drink while playing hours and hours of Tetris. How else do you think they got it all in there?

    I think grandparent was referring to how a greeter could easily recognize a blind person and point them towards the robotic carts, which they would have in addition to the driving carts they have now.

  11. Re:How is this legal? on Human Animal Hybrid Created in Lab · · Score: 2, Funny

    No, if this experiment proceeds in producing human cognitive thought in a mouse, we'll start having better lawyers and politicians. That's what you should be worried about.

  12. Re:Hmmm except local calls aren't always free on P2P Meets PSTN, With Bellster · · Score: 1

    Looking at the setup page on their site, it looks like you can program in some pretty long prefixes to share. From my phone, 720 and 303 prefixes are free, so perhaps I could program those in? Or perhaps I'm missing something.

  17. Re:What I want to know: on Robot Building for Beginners · · Score: 1

    Probably, but even more of a challenge: is it possible to make a robot that eats old people for fuel?

  18. Re:Excellent! on Linux On Your Tablet PC · · Score: 1

    Ah, yes, but we're working on an updated version of hdparm that allows you to make the magnetic data on the hard disk much smaller, making it weigh less or something. Or you can always remove the screen and call it a headless tablet.

  19. Re:payload revealed on NASA Prepares to Launch Comet-Buster · · Score: 1

    Gah, blasphemy! Don't compare Gigli to Pluto Nash... Gigli is the base to which we all calibrate our suck barometers, and Pluto Nash is just... different.

    I think "Wrong and Stupid" really should be one of the moderation choices, great idea!

  21. Re:Is it that simple to make UPC codes? on $1.5 Million Bar-code Scheme Bilks Wal-Mart Stores · · Score: 1

    It's incredibly easy, sometimes trivial, depending on the type of barcode. For example, Code 39 barcodes (not quite sure about any other ones, anybody else know?) are implemented using only a font, so all you have to do is type in some numbers and print it out on a label.
