  5. Re:Short version: on Cell Phone Reception Hack · · Score: 1

  6. Obstruction! on Photograph the Police, Get Arrested · · Score: 4, Funny

    "He said he was taking pictures with his cell phone and that was obstructing an investigation," said Aracelis Cruz, Neftaly Cruz's mother.

    Of course it's obstructing, because the officer had to leave the original scene to arrest some kid causing problems down the street.

  7. Re:Reference? Hoax? on Hydrogen Powered Toy Car · · Score: 1

    Episode 53: Exploding Pants

  8. Hydrogen in a gas engine ... on Hydrogen Powered Toy Car · · Score: 1

    In a recent episide of the Mythbusters on the Discovery channel, Adam and Jamie tested rather unscientifically, blowing pure hydrogen directly into the carbeurator. The car ran.

    We don't need to wait for highly advanced fuel cells to run our cars. With some modification a gas engine can on run hydrogen and oxygen from the air. Maybe not with a 300 mile cruiling range, but it works. Alternatively, a diesel engine can burn veggie oil with _no_ modification, refuse from your local McDonalds. What are we waiting for?

  13. Re:Publicity stunt on Canadian Music Stars Fight Against DRM · · Score: 1

    The current distribution system is a monopoly. Aren't monopolies illegal?

  14. Re:This is it! on Canadian Music Stars Fight Against DRM · · Score: 1

    You have to vote out all the congresspeople who vote in favor of DRM, at least 51% and because the MPIAA/RIAA own them and they vote what they're told.

  15. Re:I trust Microsoft completely..... on Is Microsoft Silent Before a Deadly Storm? · · Score: 1

    The thing is McDonalds changed with the times. From the old styrofoam take home containers to the eco friendly paper bags. And now, dozens of Ronald McDonalds and several lawsuits later, they're changing the menu to include more healthy friendly choices. Granted the Xbox was pretty cool, but so was the Atari 2600 or the lightbulb for that matter. I'm still using Win2k to play my windows games. There just isn't a reason to upgrade.

  16. troll on Is Microsoft Silent Before a Deadly Storm? · · Score: 1
    IE7, although arguably inferior to Firefox, is much better than IE6, and for people who have not user Firefox/Opera it will be great. The rendering is better, it's more standards compliant.
    My dog is superior to IE6.
