  1. Re:Just a "health chip"? on Former Health Secretary Pushes for VeriChip Implants · · Score: 1

    I think you'll get a lot of takers on that... especially if you can team up with someone who can blank (i.e. no digital identity in the system) them at the same time.

  2. Re:If they would just attack the politicians... on IBM Reports On Spear Phishers · · Score: 1

    "I love it when a plan comes together." - Col. John "Hannibal" Smith

  3. Re:Phish?? Anyone?? on Cisco Warns of Stolen Web Site Passwords · · Score: 1

    The phish of the day is Cisco a'la Creme.

  4. Re:Non-obvious gone, patents soon to be meaningles on Google Patents RSS Advertising · · Score: 1

    1. Form non-profit organization. 2. Get everyone to patent everything under the sun. 3. ??? 4. Stop everyone from making a PROFIT!

  5. Re:"Naked Fridays!" on Patent Examiners Flee USPTO · · Score: 2, Funny

    Ya know, while there are some women in our office I could do without seeing naked, I think I'd be willing to put up with that to see some of the others in the buff.

  6. Re:BlueGene/C uses C64 architecture? on Japan Wants to Build 10 Petaflop Supercomputer · · Score: 4, Funny

    I think so, Brain, but where are we going to get a hot tub filled with gelatin, a ping pong ball and a rubber hose at this time of night? NARF!

  7. Re:Legal? on Google and Microsoft Lob More Lawsuits · · Score: 1

    #include <ianal.h>

    I don't know if it's the same everywhere, but here where I live they cannot introduce new terms of employment after you have been hired, under threat of firing if you refuse. You would be perfectly within your rights to refuse to sign anything that wasn't presented to you as a requirement for employment at the time of hiring... I have, in fact, done so and the company had no recourse.

    In my opinion, though, if things get to the point where any legal wrangling is involved, you are better off just moving on.

  8. Re:How many toolbars do we need? on Yahoo Releases Firefox Toolbar Beta · · Score: 1

    Don't forget, it would be quite important for a Slashdot Toolbar to take the page you're viewing and dupe it's contents at least 2 or 3 times.

  9. Re:Billing rates are going up!!!! on One Step Away from Changing Daylight Savings Time · · Score: 1

    I think you overestimate the cost of updating by comparing it to Y2k. Most of the changes to support DST will be made at an OS level, as opposed to an application/database level. I do not think this will have much of an impact, but it will still be a bit of a shuffle to get it done by November.

  10. Re:Why the IAFC is against the change on One Step Away from Changing Daylight Savings Time · · Score: 2, Funny

    Yeah, but EVERYONE uses France for that predictable knee-jerk response...

  11. Re:The next Bot Wars? on DARPA Grand Challenge A Real Race At Last? · · Score: 1

    Autoduel, not AutoAssault. AutoAssault is the new MMO vehicular combat game being developed by the folks at NetDevil.

  12. Re:Is Speilberg right for this project? on Independence Day for Transformers Live Action · · Score: 1

    Although I must say, I think Chris Rock's voice would actually manage to be LESS annoying than the voice they had in the original.

  13. Re:runs to closet on 3D Face Cameras · · Score: 1

    It would be more effective if a lot of folks started wearing the Darth Vader mask in public, otherwise you'd stick out even more.

    So, c'mon everyone... pop them masks on!

  14. Re:Let the... on Justice O'Connor Retiring · · Score: 1

    Yeah, but let's face it... the Republicans have got to be as scared of removing the filibuster option as the Democrats are. It's a tool used by BOTH sides when THEY'RE not the ones that are in control.

    I'm not saying it won't happen, but if it does then they're shooting themselves in the foot as much as they are the Democrats.
