Am I the only one who could care less how weird and uncomfortable these things are so long as it's cool and futuristic looking? I am such a slave to my geekness.
I remember seeing some scientist on TV explain why giant ants the size of buildings would never work because living things just do not scale like that. When it gets too large the structure would not support it. Would the same apply to an ape? Common sense makes me think as long as everything enlarges evenly a creature could become infinitely huge. Someone correct me on this because I've never understood the logic of it.
Agreed. I have that game and REALY want to play it. It looks very fun. But unfortunately the controls ruin it. The least they could have done is give me the option of a sane control scheme.
I can't live with normal keyboards anymore. They are obsolete as far as I'm concerned. Split all the way. I'm pretty happy with my Microsoft Natural Pro but the keys seem more stiff than they should be for an ergonomic. What does everyone recommend?
In the Podcast commentary the producer said they keep close track of how many Vipers still exist. He said they would work some sort of Viper reproduction in the second season.
I really doubt that any passwords were even there. Any site with brains is storing it as an MD5 hash. In fact I've never used any content management systems or forum software that stored it as plain text.
It's hard to stomach having to shoot a zombie in the head the same number of times as in the body (six rounds from a pistol, thanks for asking) to dispatch it, when you can shoot a light fixture and watch how realistically light dances around the room.
You are forgetting about the BLOOD SUCKING LIGHTBULB MONSTERS!
I'm not very picky when it comes to news. I don't even mind a little bit of opinion here and there. But come on, these Slashdot stories are so sensationalistic and often misleading or dupes it's sad. The news posting system should use some sort of voting system like Digg.com. since the editors clearly hate their jobs.
Whew I just made my first Slashdot bashing post. Feels good!
Because if a near-free energy source was developed our oil dependent economy would be in trouble. Our supreme overlords would not like that very much.
There are all kinds of supposed suppressed technology like the free energy magnetic motor. Some are probably fakes but some look very convincing. I'm not an expert in any of this, but it's obvious power technology is being suppressed. Breakthroughs are made every day in technology but strangely rarely in energy research. How else can you explain our cars still using the same exact fuel they always have while my 5 year old computer is consider ancient.
As a public service I am creating this thread for the purpose of containing all the inevitable Star Trek jokes. Please do your part by getting them out of your system here. Thank you.
Am I the only one that saw the headline and got a picture in my head of a mad scientist experimenting on the Amish? They would be the perfect target. Come to my lab, we're going to uh, cure cancer and stuff. Yup. Great fun that curing cancer is. Yep...

Yes I meant to say "couldn't care less". Please don't kill me grammar nazis.

Yeah because ice is impossible to melt. But maybe one day we will develope some sort of heat technology.

Best Headline Ever.

The person who made the "Death penalty for hackers" comment was not a government official, and it was a joke.
You're not very good at the whole trolling thing are you? Your comment is so dumb I don't see anyone getting mad. You have failed.
You meant $60 per book, right?

What the "T" in "T Minus bla bla" means? Not knowing has always bugged me.

It's Harry Potter, not Satan's bible!
Some would disagree
Yes, damn you Microsoft for letting our TV shows suck.
This just in. Reports are comming in that the BBC has just went completely bankrupt after letting people download a TV show for free.

Wow it just goes to show how truly geeky we really are. I saw a processor until this guy pointed out the joke.
If I win the free 10,000 songs that works out to roughly a $10,000 value. Do I have to pay taxes on it?
