  1. Etch-a-Sketch on PowerBook As A New Kind Of Human Interface Device · · Score: 0

    This should make the erase feature much more obvious to the pointy-haired bosses.

  2. Figures.... on OpenOffice.org Team on OO.org (and Upcoming v2.0) · · Score: 0

    ...I finally finished emerging the ximianized-OO on gentoo last night. emerge sync emerge portage etc-update rinse lather repeat

  3. Nope! Sorry. on GPS-Enabled Criminals In Massachusetts · · Score: 0

    Even if the proposed use is legit, the problem is that unintended use is possible and very much could be a violation of the wearer's civil rights (abbreviated though they may be for an ex-con).

  4. better choose plant breeds that aren't edible on Transgenic Mustard Cleans Up Soils · · Score: 0

    I'm not sure concentrating the poison in something that might be processed as food is a good idea. Isn't this the reason that noone who knows better eats lobsters from around Boston?

  5. no more war driving! on WiMax Technology Could Blanket the US? · · Score: 0

    ...just sit'n'sniff (or is it scratch'n'spin)?

  6. And it only took... on Wind River Completes Embedded Linux Metamorphosis · · Score: 1, Interesting

    ...suing the shit out of Green Hills Software http://www.ghs.com/news/20050118_WRS.html in express violation of a business contract to make this new product even remotely viable in the marketplace. Kudos to you...mini-SCO!

  7. tree engineering on Genetic Engineers Barking Up the Wrong Trees? · · Score: 0

    They might as well do it right (as opposed to making hybrids which is hit or miss at best). I might miss the maple leaves, but watching a buddy pay $30000 in construction costs for what a tree did to his sewage line, there'll be alot of money in making trees that don't (even if that means natural selection through the planting of other breeds with less curious roots ). Change happens. Deal or die.

  8. If I had their stock options... on iPod Most Popular Music Player on Microsoft Campus · · Score: -1, Flamebait

    ...I might pay a premium for membership in the herd as well, but there's no excuse for paying way too much for way too little player in my book (not to mention the draconian DRM and Mac centricity).
