  1. Re:The King and the Chalice (only for Experts!) on Your Favorite Math/Logic Riddles? · · Score: 1

    Didn't they all have to go through the room to get to their cells in the first place?

  2. Re:5km? on 5 km Range Commercial Wi-Fi Available · · Score: 1

    That's the record for un-amplified WiFi.

  3. Re:Pictures on Giant Squid Caught on Film · · Score: 1

    The "Deep-sea monster caught on tape" video is not the same thing that this article is talking about: "Dec. 20, 2001 - A ghostly, 23-foot-long creature..."
    The article talks about one "only" 26 feet long

  4. Re:From the i-still-don't-get-it dept. on One Hundred Years of E=MC2 · · Score: 1

    [Alt + 0178] Doesn't work either.

  5. Re:Yawn! on Shareholders Squeeze Cisco on Human Rights · · Score: 1

    This is exactly the same argument the military equipment and weapons manufacturers use as to why they should be able to sell their guns to anyone

    Really? I thought that was the Second Amendment...

  6. Re:What were you arrested for, kid? on FBI Arrests Eight On Copyright Charges · · Score: 2, Funny

    And creatin' a nuisance!

  7. Re:Do-gooder on Hillary, GTA, and High School Football · · Score: 1

    "Think of the Children" ... It's what Socrates was exectuted for, for Christs sake.

    Wait... which one was it?

  8. Re:Darn! on Getting A Handle On Vista · · Score: 2, Funny

    Don't worry, less reboots just means each one takes longer, ergo longer coffee breaks. w00t.

  9. Re:Real story .... on Apple Campus Missing From MSN Earth · · Score: 1

    They're saving that headline for the dupe.

  10. Re:Why the IAFC is against the change on One Step Away from Changing Daylight Savings Time · · Score: 1

    ...And 90% of them are in California.

  11. Re:Beem him on up... on Star Trek's Scotty Dies at 85 · · Score: 1

    Kinda like the movie My Life.

  12. What?!? on PC Keyboard Connected to PSP · · Score: 1

    You're not Miles Davis?!

  13. Re:MirrorDot on Windows Longhorn Beta Screenshots · · Score: 1

    Mod this guy up or something!
    I have no points and the site is down...

  14. Re:let me explain something about longhorn... on Longhorn Beta Begins · · Score: 1

    I think the joke is that it was outsourced to India, where Cows are god, but I might be reading into it too much...

  15. Re:Short synopsis for the lazy on MIT Physicists Create New Form of Matter · · Score: 2, Insightful

    people can't google for VDW if they don't know what it means
    Actually, they can. He said held together weakly by vdw...bonds. I googled "vdw", and the 7th result was intermolecular bonding - van der Waals forces, anybody with half a brain (and slashdotters generally aren't too dull) could easily figure out that that is what they want. You don't even have to scroll the page to see it.

  16. Re:picture on Dell Axim X50 Running Linux · · Score: 2, Informative

    Here be a picture:
    Original

  17. Re:A free anti XBOX 360 Army on IBM Plans to Open the Cell Processor · · Score: 1

    If Sony really wanted to get an advantage thay would just not use regions on the PS3, like they did with the PSP. It would make the PS3 the choice of foreign games enthusiasts, instead of the Xbox360.

  18. Re:Huh? on No Billboards in Space · · Score: 1

    U.S. Airspace goes until the Air stops. Then it is Space.

  19. Re:And now: My two cents... on How to Leave a Job on Good Terms? · · Score: 1

    And before everyone starts whining about how you can't record a conversation without the other persons' consent - YOU'RE NOT ON THE PHONE!

    In some states you don't have to tell them even if it is a phone call.

  20. How Ironic! on Microsoft to Attack RIM with Magneto · · Score: 1

    ...I just want a fucking ordinary phone...my cell provider doesn't give that option...

    Seeing as a "regular ordinary" phone plugs into a wall and uses pulse dialing, I don't think that the cell company could help much even if they wanted to. Be happy that you can talk without a cord and stop complaining. If you don't like the extra features don't use them.

  21. Unreal Tournament - The 1999 Original on The Art and Design of Quake 4 · · Score: 1

    Even in the original Unreal Tournament, when you saw other characters jump or dodge, they would do flips and other cool things. It is still in the newer UT games.

  22. Re:reboots? on The Future of Windows Graphic Technology · · Score: 1

    It's not normally common, but when you get a new card, or just want to improve performance a little bit, it's generally helpful to try different driver revisions to get the best one. When you have to reboot for every different revision, it really gets annoying.

  23. In the year 2000... on Space Elevator Group to Open Nanotube Factory · · Score: 2, Funny

    ...all major space elevator lines will show live broadcasts of Conan O'Brian.

  24. Re:First Post People Suck on Microsoft Demands Removal Of Longhorn Images · · Score: 1

    Shift + Delete 2nd best key combo ever.

  25. Re:Faster, but for what? on 1Gbps Broadband Service for Hong Kong · · Score: 1

    Your "nightly build" of Linux could actually be updated every night.
