  1. Wha... on Literature Teeters on the Edge of a 'Gr8 Fall' · · Score: 0

    This seems like an excellent use of technology. I don't think I'll have to attend english class ever again because I can learn all about rhetorical devices and reading great literary works on my cell phone. What would I do without you, Dot Mobile?

  2. Re:Not meant to be a troll, but... on Defend Yourself in the Imminent Robot Rebellion · · Score: 0

    You take that back. Reno 911 is beautiful, and so this movie should follow in similar fashion.

  3. Re:Fun fun on Engineers Report Breakthrough in Laser Beam Tech · · Score: 0

    100bpm and 100 billion times a second. Something tells me there is a bit of a difference between the two. Anyways, raves are silly.

  4. Re:No Effing Way!!! on The End Of The Light Bulb? · · Score: 0

    I do a lot of outdoors activities, so I have had many flashlights and headlights. I must say, with no hesitation, my most recent lights, which have both been LEDs, have been far superior to any incandescent/halogen/xenon light I've tried. The first headlight I had had 3 LEDs in it, three brightness settings, and I never had to use it on anything besides low. My new one has 5 LEDs with similar brightness settings, and again I never have to use it on anything but low. Also, the battery life is much better on these, and they usually require fewer (and smaller) batteries than traditional lights.

  5. A little background on MU. on Another School Exposes Private Information · · Score: 0

    Interesting to know. I've got many friends that go to Miami University up in Oxford, OH. For those not in the know, it is a division 1 school, and just a little bith north of Cincinnati, OH. The city Oxford, OH is just a college city. Lovely campus, though the students have a general stigma of being uptight and preppy. I'd say 90% or more are upper-middle class white kids. Their official website, is www.muohio.edu.

  6. Re:Yes it does on PSP Smashes Sales Records in the UK · · Score: 3, Funny

    Why kind sir, you must be mad, because they'd have to make games for the PSP in the first place!

  7. Is it even possible? on Molecular Gastronomy, The Science of Cooking · · Score: 1

    NASA makes sandwiches, which stay edible for several years

    Yes, but do they taste as good as Quizno's double steak and cheese?

  8. Re:Did ATAPI/AHCP on SATA become true on default? on 2.6.13 Linux Kernel Released · · Score: 1

    I work (temporarily) as a technician at a custom computer shop where we build computers and do repairs and service to all brands, and we've yet to build or service a computer with a SATA optical drive. There aren't a whole lot of them out there, and there is no current advantage to them, with the exception of SATA being an overall nicer to use interface than IDE in many regards. I think it will be a year or more before SATA really takes hold as far as optical drives are concerned. When I was building this new computer, I looked into SATA optical drives and I noticed how few there were (just a handful, it seemed), and they were way overpriced considering the nearly non-existant performance gain.

  9. Perfect Timing... on 2.6.13 Linux Kernel Released · · Score: 2, Funny

    I just finished configuring and compiling the kernel for my desktop last night, and now Linus decides that I'm not important to him. Why doesn't he return my calls? Doesn't he love me anymore??

  10. Yeah... on Got Spyware? Throw out the Computer! · · Score: 1

    I work for a local shop, and we build and service all machines. We do spyware removal, and one part of our service is that we will offer to sell you a new machine if the amount of money spent for the spyware removal exceeds the value of the computer. It usually only happens with older computers, though that's not always the case.
