  1. and of course on Dragon's Lair Remastered in HD · · Score: 1

    most of the time the machine was broken

  2. It's possible on Icy-Flo - The solution to this summer's heat · · Score: 1

    and if he arranged one fan to suck and one to blow and somehow put the airflow in a loop

    maybe he could get perpetual motion.

  3. indeed on The Question of Robot Safety · · Score: 1

    your sig clarifies your statment.

  4. article dead already on Icy-Flo - The solution to this summer's heat · · Score: 3, Funny

    So I have to guess the other comments.

    He attached a fan to an electrical supply?

    All I can say is, as an article, that blows.

  5. Re:HEY WAIT A SEC..... on UK Parliament Questioning DRM · · Score: 1

    so are we, but the portions are smaller and more expensive.

  6. When pigs fly on Net2phone Sues Skype · · Score: 1

    someone will be extracting patent licence fees.

  7. gotta love marketing related driver crippling on 'SLI On A Stick' Reviewed · · Score: 1

    This caused me to be suprised that my original sblive basic model is capable of 96KHz 32bit float audio.

    How common is this really? Or is endemic a better word?

  8. Re:Where are the bunkers to protect Citizens ? on Back to the Bunker · · Score: 1

    aside from bigger particles

  9. It's good to know on Back to the Bunker · · Score: 1

    that during a disaster a large proportion of the individuals that had great part in the mess that requires them to go into a bunker are going to be nice and safe, thus allowing the mere remains of society to get on with the remainder of their lives (as long as that may be).

    I wonder how many folks in a real nightmare scenario would say "screw it" and stay with their families, what's the contingency rules? would they be "ordered" to do their job or is it assumed they will do it anyway because of summary consequences?

  10. Re:It's still ain't a Happy Hacking Keyboard... on Das Keyboard II: A Switch for the Better · · Score: 1

    I've paid less for cars

  11. Re:This is filed under "humor?" on Stupid Engineering Mistakes · · Score: 1

    we lost 21 slashdot readers that day

  12. Re:OMG Vonage. What next? on Vonage Vows to Pursue Customers Who Renege on IPO · · Score: 1

    I know I'm supposed to be sickened by that.

    but hahahaha

  13. not only robots serving beer on Humanoid Robot Serves Beer · · Score: 1
    some of them like to drink it. barbot

    It's nice that someone has made bender.

  14. thus solving the problem of gambling forever on WA Law: 5 Years in Prison for Gambling Online · · Score: 1

    so that's "unlikely" as in "can" and "can" as in "will"?

    someone in the gambling industry messed up their bribe schedule or something?

  15. freedom of truth isn't it on High Court Trims Whistleblower Rights · · Score: 1

    as described by the owner of the chains

  16. yeah, "on top of the problem" on First Mobile Phone Virus Nears 2nd Birthday · · Score: 2, Insightful

    by that I suppose they mean locking out the phone o/s to those who pay for certificates to sign their software with.

    nobody will be able to crack that

  17. I have this feeling too (mod parent up) on China Files Case Against Intel's Wireless Network · · Score: 1

    it's often interesting to see the reaction of powerful folks not getting what they want on demand.

    Seems like the toys are getting thrown straight out of the pram.

    Or is this significant of something deeper going on?

  18. Re:arrogance of ignorance on Science Ability Down in U.S. High Schools · · Score: 1

    so in a way, the title of the piece, was completely accurate?

  19. virtusphere looks quite fun on Top 10 Strangest Gadgets of the Future · · Score: 3, Interesting

    all the joys of the varied alien landscapes of fps and maybe practical real world simulation, be it lacking the feeling of jumping/climbing and the feeling of freefall, plus of course the lack of weight.

    Maybe if they could make the "sphere" the actual projection screen, mount it on something mobile and maybe have some kind of force feedback bodysuit? Hmm, I feel a patent looming. :)

    And the heliodisplay is completely cool, a volume projecting version would be even cooler.

  20. ok, this is completely insane on EU Considers Taxing SMS Messages, Email · · Score: 1

    sms is charged at a ludicrous £/E rate/MB to start with.

    and charging a tax on each email??

    What confusion of basic moneygrabbing greed, nonsense and outright stupidity is caused by the crack these folk are on, seriously?

    There's just no words for this, only a sequence of dots at the end of this sentence.....

  21. waffles!? on European Commission Reverses its Views on Patents · · Score: 2, Informative

    brussels is in belgium.
    liege is in belgium.
    waffles made in either of those two places are in belgium.
    belgian waffles come from belgium.
    everything comes from belgium!!!

    You might find that other countries have the technology to make waffles.

    Also, french fries come from belgium.
    This is all very confusing and pointless.
    -1, Redundant please.

  22. He could still be new on DRM Protest in Hazmat Suits · · Score: 1

    the user could have inherited it from a parent.

    No, hang on, this is slasdot.

  23. Re:A dvd for every US citizen? on NASA Seeking Innovative Ideas from Public · · Score: 1

    Wouldn't be suprised if the idea hasn't already been thought of, "Department of Communications - Bringing you the truth about your tax dollars at work"

  24. Re:Apple? on Microsoft Introduces Pay-as-You-Go Computing · · Score: 1

    a moment of aberration

  25. mod parent up on Reporting Vulnerabilities Is For The Brave · · Score: 1

    somewhat lucky he didn't get multiple lawsuits dumped on him

    So what are the odds of the exact same story happening in some other companies resulting in legal action and being blacklisted?
