  1. Re:What's the news here? on Indian Military Hopes to Weaponize the Searing "Ghost Pepper" · · Score: 1

    Good point, and capsicum has been able to be synthesized since the 1930's... Maybe they just want the organic label?

  2. Re:Is this needed? on Indian Military Hopes to Weaponize the Searing "Ghost Pepper" · · Score: 2, Insightful

    That was my first thought too... also, according to Wikipedia they synthesized pure capsicum back in the 1930's. Is this just a some way to produce it cheaper by somehow distilling it out?

    Forward the message to yourself, sans attachment, and delete the original. I know its more of a pain than the feature would be, but its not that tough.

    Plenty of commercial buildings are built over top of tunnels. What made the big dig different?

  6. Re:References? on Politically Incorrect Observations About Human Nature · · Score: 1

    While I think your point about melanin is off topic, your link has a graphic showing the distribution of blond hair. If the heavy clothing theory held a lot of water, shouldn't the graphic show bands across different temperature regions instead of a bullseye in that one area?

  7. Re:Wow... on Is Cash No Longer Legal Tender? · · Score: 1
    You are so right, and I just want to take a moment to single out several of the shitty banks in my area that charge a fee for cashing checks drawn on their accounts, as of 2 years ago. Before opening an account I went around and specifically asked about this practice and received the "we are shitballs" response from:

    BANK OF AMERICA(reportedly started the practice, claiming it cost the bank too much to cash mexican lettuce farmers cheques who "wouldn't" open accounts with them.... this bank also apparently take their disrespect of their customers associates to the next level by making them stand in separate lines)
    Wachovia
    BB&T

    I ended up with the fourth bank I talked to which is Chevy Chase (D.C. area) and have been very happy with them.

  8. Re:nothing you can do about this on Woman's House Robbed After Fake Craigslist Post · · Score: 1

    I never lock my house. Like you said, its has always seemed pretty much worthless to do so. Do you really have to lock in order for insurance to cover though? Do you have to have a alarm system too? What about dogs. Seems like they might want to require them as well.

  9. Re:Can ARC4 be used properly at all? on WEP Broken Even Worse · · Score: 1

    If you're still using WEP, update your drivers and firmware and you may be able to get TKIP WPA and get those pesky neighbors off of your connection.

    I bet your the most popular guy at your blockparty!

    And of course, the benefits of marriage aren't only financial.

    lol! Aren't only financial? You must have married money cause I think it financially ruins most men.

  14. Re:Unwittingly downloaded a keylogger program? on Spam That Delivers a Pink Slip · · Score: 1
    I'm getting 5 or 7 clicks, depending how you look at it.

    1. Right click on desktop
    2. Left on properties
    3. Left on Desktop tab
    4. Left on Customize desktop
    5. Left on the IE checkbox (here you
    might call it done...)
    6&7. Left on OK of both open windows.

    How can one do it in 3 clicks?

  18. Re:Too much work on The Light Bulb That Can Change the World · · Score: 1

    Turning it on and off to much is probably what caused it. If you are going to come back to that room any time in the next few hours its probably worth just leaving it on.

  19. Re:You guys dont get it on Citizen Photographers v. The Police? · · Score: 1
    Wont these anonymous officers have to show up at trial where someone might even learn their names?

    Shouldn't having your undercover officers or snitches out in public be seen as yet another police competency issue involved here?

    It's more like putting a TV in your window, turning it on, and getting upset when someone watches it.

    Those sound like awesome days, but what happened to your life that you are now posting on slashdot?

  23. Moving Skeleton Movies? on Implants for Sensing Magnetic Fields · · Score: 1
    Yup, but this is what X-Ray inventors also guessed when they shot themselves under X-Ray scaners for hours and hours of self-made moving skeleton movies, and later died by cancer.

    Please post a link to said "moving skeleton movies."

    PS - Any chance some of these were porn?

  25. Re:My favorite bandwidth test on ISPs Offer Faster Speeds, Why Don't We Get Them? · · Score: 1
    Thats a pretty front page I guess, but it only supports up to 8mbit/s.

    http://cruise.ornl.gov:7123/ and its associate NDT servers are free, have no such limits, and have tons technical info in the details section after the test.
    Plus its the government so you know you can trust it! Well... at least they arn't going to try and sell you anything.

    Note the list of other places running NDTs lower down in the page.
