  2. House quieted by accoustic/electrical engineering on What Would Be Your Ideal Futuristic Home? · · Score: 1

    I want my house to be quiet from all the noises of the neighboorhood such as barking dogs. If it were possible I would put sound canceling speakers along the perimeter of my house. Neighboorhood noises would come into a microphone and the sound canceling speakers would play back the neighboorhood noises only inverted to create destructive interference and cancel the sound out.

  9. How about the N-Gage? on 10 Failed Technology Trends of 2005 · · Score: 2, Insightful

    The N-Gage was a complete failure, and is in fact a joke among gamers. For instance, on the gamefaqs board you can insult someone's intelligence by saying "You bought an N-Gage didn't you?" Recently there was a topic posted on the boards whose title was "I...got...an...NGAGE...for...Christmas". The topic got over 250 responses (most topics don't get more than 20) nearly all of which were other users who wrote "LOL" or some form of condolense.

  13. Re:America has officially lost its monopoly on stu on Reality TV "Astronauts" Lift Off · · Score: 1

    In fact, perhaps the only way this show could get any more entertaining is if the viewing public were allowed to vote on which indignity the 'astronauts' would have to suffer next.

    How about voting who to kick off the shuttle?
