  1. If only it were a bit smaller... on High-Tech 'Bazooka' Fires a Net To Take Down Drones (bgr.com) · · Score: 1

    Then you could mount it on a drone!

  2. Re:The can -ropose what they want on Google Proposes New Hard Drive Format For Data Centers (thestack.com) · · Score: 1

    They could call it "Google Earth"... oh wait...

  3. Re:Good News vs. Bad News Joke on The Cure for Cancer Might be: HIV · · Score: 0, Offtopic

    A Man goes to the Dr, the Dr says "There is good news and bad news" The bad news is, you have HIV. The good news is you have Alzheimers and will have forgotten the bad news by the time you get home.

  4. Re:old news? on College Students Turn Away From Landlines · · Score: 1

    When I was at Lancaster back in 2000, they put phones into all the campus rooms, but they were all done by a private telco, that charged insance prices like 30pence per minute to call freephone numbers and you couldnt phone 999 directly. Mobile phones were basically made cheaper by this, for many students, so most of them went mobile, and the company running it got bought out.

  5. Re:Physics? on More On PS3 and Xbox 2 · · Score: 1

    Maybe they mean each physical interaction will now be modelled on a subatomic level for that ultra-realistic feel. Watch those quarks fly....

  6. Re:Thank God! on Creationist Textbook Stickers Declared Unconstitutional · · Score: 1

    I thought Evolution was a mail client...

  7. Re:Too Expensive on Comcast Begins Rollout of VoIP · · Score: 1

    I have had cable from Comcast for a few years now, renting prevents me from switching to satellite. Started out at $40 per month, in now $75, for bugger all extra in the way of service. And they keep screwing up the direct debit.

    I will go a long way to avoid giving them anymore money, including shunning their broadband and VoIP services.

    Add in to the high cost of cable that you have to watch endless comcast adverts blowing their own trumpets.

  8. Re:i'm confuzzled on Subatomic Darwinism · · Score: 1

    Best Terry Pratchett quote I found for dealing with explaining quantum:
    "Ya know, the problem with quantum is explaining it in a language originally designed to tell other monkeys where the ripe fruit is"
    That pretty much summed up explaining my Particle Physics thesis to my parents and grandparents.
