    I hope the easy snap-on latches aren't also easy snap-off latches :s

    Fair enough, you sit there in your unbelief.. wheeeee!! *jumps onto the top of the empire state building*

    It would also weigh a little more than 8 kilos. I'd prefer a normal body sized exo-skeleton to a 20 foot mecha style exo-skeleton for everyday usage ;)

    We already have done that in this country (UK). Seems to be working pretty well :P If martial arts were part of formal education then it could make life a lot more interesting, though :)

  6. Re:You insensitive clod, I own a movie theater on 33 MegaPixel TV in 2015 · · Score: 4, Funny

    Pah, your package sounds pretty standard.. is there a premium version complete with a big sweaty fat guy in the seat next to you? Do we get complimentary sticky floors? What kind of adverts do you provide prior to each movie?

  7. Re:Slow news day much? on Is Open Source Recession Proof? · · Score: 1

    Basically when the comment says what everyone was already thinking, it is redundant. You could take up the view that "someone had to say it", but this particular mod obviously didn't. Or maybe he doesn't have the ability to laugh, and is jealous.

    What would you expect from a guy that walks around fingering his twiddler in public?

    Adblockers ftw!

    PS lolfag ;)

  11. Re:What?-A sticky situation. on Helium Crisis Approaching · · Score: 1

    And don't forget the recepticles/Kleenexes and interwebs. We need to save all of it for the sake of future generations.

    What crisiness is this!? Mama-mia! Eeeey! It'sa Mariooo!!

  13. Re:Looks fine to me on Edible Antifreeze For Smoother Ice Cream · · Score: 1

    I still tend to consider ice-cream a luxury good. Is Ben & Jerry's made from decent ingredients? Because that's basically the only ice cream I buy myself (usually when I go to the cinema). My mum always buys 'real' ice cream too (Mackie's, possibly just a Scottish/UK thing..)

  14. Re:Mmm, Delicious on Edible Antifreeze For Smoother Ice Cream · · Score: 1

    Just reading that comment made me feel Tick.. uh.. sick..

  15. Re:Sony obviously.... on Sony Starts a Standards War Over Wireless USB · · Score: 1

    Ah, true enough ;)

  16. Re:VTech just kicked in, yo! on Student Expelled For Facebook Photo Description · · Score: 1

    Kind of ironic that they're presumably going to have to use student fees to defend themselves, but you definitely deserve compensation for what that idiot has put you through. I hope your education hasn't been disrupted too much because of this! :/

  17. Re:Shot in the Dark on Huge Hydrogen Cloud Will Hit Milky Way · · Score: 1

    I've often wondered if doing stuff like harvesting tidal energy would mess up the tides enough to disrupt the orbit of the moon or somesuch. There's no such thing as a free lunch!

  18. Re:Run for it, Marty on Lockheed Signs with EEStor to Use New Ultracapacitor · · Score: 1

    Aye, they'd have to chop off everyone's arms, legs and head - all pretty effective weapons if used correctly.

  19. Re:Sony obviously.... on Sony Starts a Standards War Over Wireless USB · · Score: 4, Funny

    Buying something just because it's available in higher quality is stupid Tell me about it, I'm fed up of all these people trying to get me to buy CDs, when I can get perfectly good tape recordings off of the radio, plus there are all these tapes around in these cool little shops that sell stuff that people don't want anymore! Who would be stupid enough to get rid of their old tapes in favour of the CD version?!! Insanity! Don't even get me started on colour TV..
  20. Re:Yeah! on Old Stars Can Form New Planets · · Score: 2, Funny

    I need to try that on my mum next time she complains about the dust in my room. I'm just collecting it to aid new planet formation!

  21. Re:NBA on Toshiba Uses Cell Chip In Consumer Laptop · · Score: 1

    Ooh I got a Phoenix Suns basketball about a decade ago - I liked the colour scheme, hehe :D I was thinking they were American 'Football' teams..

  22. Re:Sure, on Legalize File Sharing, Say Swedish MPs · · Score: 2, Interesting

    I fail to see how it's the copyright law that is letting artists get screwed over by the recording labels, I thought it would be more to do with the fact that musicians don't tend to have a degree in business management or economics, and therefor let themselves get screwed over.

  23. Re:Sure, on Legalize File Sharing, Say Swedish MPs · · Score: 1

    Seems kind of hypocritical.. do the police just enjoy giggling at the hookers then busting anyone that approaches one

  24. Re:Not a good name on Toshiba Uses Cell Chip In Consumer Laptop · · Score: 1

    Son.. I didn't understand a word you just said. Spurs are what cowboys use. Suns are big things in the sky that appear to move very slowly. Crazy Americans.

  25. Re:dude... on Firefox Struggling to Compete as Corporate Browser · · Score: 1

    Well, who wants their employees playing pyromaniacal games when they should in fact be out there exploring the internet?
