  1. Re:sad news :( on Holography Pioneer Passes Away · · Score: 0

    Gabor did everything bass-ackwards.

    He was using electrons instead of photons (he was attempting to increase the resolution of electron microscopes), and he used an on-axis reference beam.

    Of course I'm not biased. I just had Leith for intro to optics, classical optics and fourier optics, and Upatnieks for one of my labs at the University of Michigan.

    They were both great profs.

    Every so often Leith would break out his collection of holograms. My favorite was the Denisyuk hologram of Denisyuk :-)

  2. Second Amendment Complaint? on SCO Amends Novell Complaint · · Score: 4, Funny

    Watch out, they have finally gone completely nuts and are going to start shooting!

  3. Re:World War II Taught us: on New Aircraft is Part Blimp and Part Airplane · · Score: 1

    Take a look at his username. It is apparently an odd gimmick.

  4. Re:More Thief, please! on Games That Deserve New Year Sequels · · Score: 1

    Yes, more Thief would be a good thing.

    And while there were drawbacks I did enjoy Deadly Shadows.
    The fog-filled doors between zones were bad and so were the climbing gloves instead of rope arrows, but it did have the best level, in my opinion, of the series: the cradle. That actually creeped me out and had me on the edge of my seat, tense and nervous. It's the only video game to actually do that to me.

  5. Re:Am I allowed to do so with every other product? on France to Legalize File Sharing · · Score: 1

    At that point society is so different that this is not even an issue. If cars can be replicated than food can be too. So humans would not be stuggling to survive anymore. We would not be working to trade our worth for food and shelter so there wouldn't be a need to protect our assets/ideas and such.

  6. Violent game laws on Videogame Mythbusting · · Score: 2, Insightful

    This seems like a well thought out and logical article. But unfortunately it will probably fall on deaf ears for those who support Hillary Clinton's cause to ban games she doesn't personally approve of.

  7. Re:The most important question... on IPv6 Transition to Cost US $75 Billion? · · Score: 0

    Yes I realize I used it's instead of its. D'oh!

  8. Re:The most important question... on IPv6 Transition to Cost US $75 Billion? · · Score: 1

    Is it really worth it?

    You are missing the point. While it might appear that this should be a discussion about the costs and benefits of going to IPv6, this is really just an opportunity to bash america in general and it's current administration in particular.

    Think I'm wrong? Read the posts. As I'm writing this the vast majority of posts have nothing at all to do with the subject at hand.

  9. ants at a picnic? on Pro Perl Debugging · · Score: -1, Offtopic

    Wait, what am I? I'm ants at a picnic? Is that what you just said? I just - I'm ants at a picnic. All right, just making sure.

  10. Re:Terry Nation on The Scripts of J. Michael Straczynski, Vol. 1 · · Score: 1

    From which television series? His *Doctor Who* scripts? His *Blake's 7* scripts? His *Persuaders!* scripts? Or his work on *MacGyver*?

    Well, seeing as my /. nickname is Roj Blake...B7 maybe?

  11. Terry Nation on The Scripts of J. Michael Straczynski, Vol. 1 · · Score: 1

    I'd rather have the scripts of Terry Nation.

  12. Re:Problem number 1 on 'Games Are Not Art' - The Fault of Game Journalists · · Score: 1

    Define "art"

    an archaic present second singular of BE?

    Nope, games are not art.

  13. Jeb Bush? on John Seigenthaler Sr. Criticises Wikipedia · · Score: 2, Funny

    "Ah, Florida! Just think, somewhere in this state, Jeb Bush is eating a live puppy." -Stewie Griffin
