  1. Almost free energy? on Vaporizing Garbage to Create Electricity · · Score: 1

    How are these plasma arcs going to be generated? I'm no physicist, but will the power needed to generate these arcs be outweighed by the energy produced from the garbage? These seems like, in essence, just burning really really hot, so how efficent can that be? Like I said, I'm not physicist. Can this really work? Is this more than just random propaganda?

  2. You're Fired! on Stephen Hawking Looking for Assistant · · Score: 5, Funny

    I can't wait to see NBC's new reality show, The Assistant starring Stephen Hawking. Now, that would be good television.

  3. Live-savings? on Enron's Kenneth Lay Dies · · Score: 1

    "Lay was found guilty of being in charge of the scheme that had many lose their live-savings" Live-savings, you say? All these years and I haven't been investing in things like plants and slave hands! Thanks Slashdot for making up new words for things that I didn't know I needed to worry about

  4. Re:just wait... on Mysterious Website Actually Social Experiment · · Score: 1

    Finally, Anglefire and Geocities... your day has come.

  5. Now what? on Teen Sues MySpace Over Sexual Assault · · Score: 1

    If we are going to sue MySpace for this, shouldn't we also being sueing malls where these people can meet, or where people can get abducted by rapists? Why aren't we sueing the convinence stores that sell cigarettes and beer that kill hundreds of thousands every year? Why don't we sue the fast food restaurants for selling us food that makes us fat? Oh wait...

  6. The Joys of Coffee on Study Says Coffee Protects Against Cirrhosis · · Score: 4, Interesting

    NPR also ran this story earlier today saying that people who drink 2 cups of coffee are better listeners than those who don't. We've been drinking this stuff for how long and we're just now figuring this stuff out? What will they find out next?

  7. Quite frankly on Lawyers Ordered to Play RPS to Settle Dispute · · Score: 0

    I think the judge should have ordered a battle to the death. That would have solved so many problems...

  8. Hm. on Only NFL Game This Year Gets Lukewarm Response · · Score: 0
  9. Re:Draft dodger! on Rail Guns Closer to Reality · · Score: 0

    Do you think there will be treatsies against Spawn Camping?

  10. Nice try. on Too Much Homework Can Be Counterproductive · · Score: 2, Funny

    Nice try, but that excuse never worked for me when I was in school.

  11. Eh? on Will America's Favorite Technology Go Dark? · · Score: 0

    If the corporations, i.e. Sony, Toshiba, Hitachi, some English names, would get involved in this, promoting the converter boxes, actually mention this date to the majority of the public, Congress might finally get something done right, and on time. I am still waiting for Congress to realize that making everyone update their televison sets really won't do anything to help America progress. Why aren't their bills like this passed for high speed internet where I live? Why are we continually falling behind to the Japanese and European nations? Why doesn't Congress do something about actual problems, rather than enforcing the country to switch to H-Def so they can watch their precious football in pretty vision?

  12. Pish posh. on PSP Launch Coverage · · Score: 0

    I have a laptop. Why would I need a Playstation 2 that last slightly longer when unplugged?

  13. Definite Improvement on Intelligent MIDI Sequencing with Hamster Control · · Score: 1

    I smell a Best New Artist grammy in the works.

  14. Greatest Mouse Game Evar on Gaming With a Headmouse? · · Score: 1

    The first thing that comes to mind when refering to a game that involves only mouse use is Diablo, 1 and 2. If you can only use the mouse, and have a way of rapidly clicking, Diablo is a great way to waste hours upon hours, just as long as you don't stop to think about how productive you are being.

  15. Re:Americans need to get themselves straight.. on Grand Theft Auto Led Teen to Kill · · Score: 1

    You are right to say everyone in the Bible Belt owns one gun. I know, because I am in the Bible Belt. I also know that I am relativly safe sitting on a cache of firearms. My fathers cache, rather. However, being the a responsible adult and realizing that I was just a child, kept the locked away in my youth. Actually, most, if not all, houses in the Bible Belt have their firearms locked away in giant box to keep children from getting to it. Also, the cops weren't shot with a gun that belonged to the kid or even the parent. The police were shot with their own gun. If the world would hurry up and get technology up to date, like in L.A. where they are testing handguns that can be specifically fired by a cop, this wouldn't of happend. You cannot blame gun control anymore than you can blame GTA, and quite frankly, it is a little ignorant to blame a game for the doings of an obviously diseased person. People like that will do heinous acts no matter what. Just their excuse varies.

  16. Re:General Grievous? on Episode III Opening Crawl Released · · Score: 1

    His uncle is General Specific?

  17. Re: What? on Creationist Textbook Stickers Declared Unconstitutional · · Score: 1

    Maybe we should place a warning label on your shirt as well: Caution, due to certain quantum theories, this person may or may not exsist. Please keep an open mind and use caution not to accept his existsence blindly.

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

    I think we should slap sticker on to text books warning that gravity is just a theory. I just want to see the millions of physics teachers about the country foulder over their own tounges to come up with a better answer. Honestly though, this country could use some outward thinking like that.

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

    A vat full of chemicals sitting in a lab is very different from, say, a samp in the real world. And, maybe, just maybe, theses things went from a state of dissorder to order, which seems to violate a law of thermodynamics or two. Actually, there are two cases when it would now: a. Temperature change, but that would only effectivly slow the movement. b. Applied intelligence, but that would promote some kind of all powerfull extraterrestial being, and God forbid we ever have that.
