  1. Why? on Consultant Convicted For Non-Invasive Site Access · · Score: 1

    First, I have not RTFA. (Who does?)
    Second, what exactly was so illegal? I've done many ARIN queries and borrowed Symantec's geographic IP locator to find out about various sites. Nobody's come knocking on my door (yet).

  2. Re:Answering "Why Emergency Internet Access?" post on Creating Live Linux Distributions For Disasters · · Score: 1

    And anyway, what would us porn addicts do? :P

  3. Re:it is one of the most significant planes ever. on SpaceShipOne to Join Smithsonian Collection · · Score: 1

    I definitely belongs in a museum, and now.

    Bad grammar aside, why? Are you going to die soon?

  4. Solutions on Intelligent Coasters Keep Beer Mugs Full · · Score: 1

    1. Programmed to recognize different sizes when new mug is first set down. 2. Hard plastic. 3. Waterproof coaster, allow cardboard to slide in/out of a slot. 4. Make them cheap. 5. Have it signal a waitress to come over to offer a refill. 6. Use the coasters as a tool, rather than a controller.

  5. Re:A lawyer working for Warner said this: on Music Industry Threatens to Pull Plug on Apple · · Score: 1

    The recording industry is...lashing out when someone tries to take that away from them

    Hmm... can you say "withdrawl"?

  6. Misspelling on TiVo User's Fears Explored · · Score: 5, Funny

    We've touched on this topic in the past.

    They misspelled "dupe".

  7. Strip remotes on Building an Open Source "Clicker"? · · Score: 1

    I think the best solution would be to buy a few remotes from your local RadioShack (As many buttons as you need). Remove the key labels, and create your own (i.e. 1-4, corresponding to a shown answer set). You can either figure out how to identify each clicker with the programming codes for TVs, or create your own system. I think a two-digit signal would be sufficient: the clicker ID and the selection. I don't know much about this subject, nor much about what your scenario will be, so this is my best guess.

  8. Re:Didn't i see this in '99 on tv? on I/O Electronic Brush for Painting · · Score: 1

    Must be the longest dupe in the history of Slashdot...

  9. Yes... on Dell Releases First Consumer Product with Mandriva · · Score: 5, Funny

    Yes, but does it run Li--Oh, wait...

  10. Re:I do this all the time on When Will E-Books Become Mainstream? · · Score: 1

    more support on the INternet for these devices

    Ever try the PSP browser? It's actually quite nice--you use a cursor controlled by the pad thingy (I don't have a PSP). Some sites even have PSP-sized pages, like VG Cats.

  11. Re:RIAA is right on this one on RIAA Says P2P Encourages Illegal Downloads · · Score: 1

    encouraging me to download something illegal instead
    We are now logging your personal information


    Seems to me that they were monitoring you all along. Reminds me of some policies in today's government...

  12. Re:Unnecessary. on Lockheed Chosen For Electronic Records Archives · · Score: 1

    we make better chicken noodle soup now

    Personally, I liked the chicken soup of fifty years ago.

  13. Re:Real Video on Lockheed Chosen For Electronic Records Archives · · Score: 3, Funny

    Yeah, proprietary formats are [Buffering...]

  14. Re:[NT] No Title on Singapore Bloggers Charged Under Sedition Act · · Score: 1

    About 22% of all use inmates are raped

    Um...

  15. Re:Hubble on Hubble Future Is Cloudier After Katrina · · Score: 1

    Hertidge? That sounds like a hernia...

  16. Re:full article mirror & comment on Half-Terabyte Hard Drive Reviewed · · Score: 1

    How does Joe Sixpack back up 500Gb? That's an awful lot of digital pics & videos.

    One word: pr0n.

  17. Re:Redmond will burn hot with magma and destructio on Oregon Is Growing A Mystery Bulge · · Score: 1

    Yeah, but Nintendo of America is there too! I need to satisfy my addiction!

  18. Re:Wait a moment... on Blu-Ray To Punish Users for Modifying Hardware · · Score: 2, Insightful

    so busy [...] that there's pretty much no room [...] for trivialities like running the government

    Nor is there any room for that in the agendas of politicians.

    "What's that? Katrina? Hang on, I'm on the phone with [insert big company here]..."

  19. Re:WIndows XP Media Center: inflated sales alert on Economist Looks at the Digital Home · · Score: 1

    These PCs are definitely not going into living rooms

    Maybe not, but people will still be using them for creating media. Thay have more input than output, don't they?

  20. Re:I'm suprised.. on Cyan Worlds Closes · · Score: 1

    I had the same problem when I got an NES. Couldn't figure out what to do in Zelda: no big guiding force meant I had no clue what to do (aside from complete eight or so levels, kill monsters, and collect heart containers and rupies/rupees).

  21. Re:It's probably nothing to worry about... on Cyan Worlds Closes · · Score: 2, Funny

    Where do we go to get their pages?

  22. Re:Horse pucky on Blog Faces Lawsuit Over Reader Comments · · Score: 1

    The people filing this lawsuit are nothing more than schoolyard bullies.

    Congratulations! You have just summed up corporate America!

  23. Re:More solutions on Molecular Gastronomy, The Science of Cooking · · Score: 1

    Solution: Burn crops and use "herd reduction".

  24. Re:Plastic Kits on Fly To Mars In A Plastic Ship · · Score: 1

    Imagine this: building one of those plastic model kits--in space, wearing a suit and an armchair. (Oh, for you that don't know what I mean, a "flying armchair" is a device that allows you to move about in spaceby emitting short bursts of things)
    What's that? It's not a correct metaphor? Okay then, imagine building one that is a few thousand times larger and a few million times more detailed, still with the suit and chair.

    Simple?

  25. Re:Yes, but... on Fly To Mars In A Plastic Ship · · Score: 1

    Specifically, the girls' bathroom walls.

    (Yes, I know.)
