  1. Sue the lawyer that notarized the power of attorne on Identity Thieves Steal Homes · · Score: 1

    "the power of attorney that had been notarized by a North York lawyer named Sheldon Caplan"

    Reviczky should just sue that lawyear for at least the sum of the house + what he could have made from it.
    This lawyer had crossed the law...

  2. Availability on Tic-Tac-Toe-Playing LEGO Robot · · Score: -1, Flamebait

    Yes, this is old and has been done, but i think the video demonstrates what a normal human that buys the toy can create right at his house. This is no longer University-level stuff, but what child does to impress their mommy to receive a pat on the head.

  3. 1-frame watermark on The Secret Origins of TiVo · · Score: 2, Interesting

    There is a one frame at 3 minutes 58 seconds that flashes the link www.tivo.com/bluemoon. I think the reel is more of an entertainment than marketing project, that was meant to self-redistribute.

  4. Overload on The Secret Origins of TiVo · · Score: 1, Funny

    And the tivo.com goes down in 5 ... 4 ... 3 ... 2 ...

  5. Patented design on Apple Gives In to Absurd Patent Claims · · Score: 0

    I have patented the mamal respiratory design. Anyone interested in continue using mamalian respiratory functions (breathing) should pay me a royalty in the sum of a mere 1 dollar per use. Since it is a known fact that every use provide circa 4 litres of oxygen, and many of you would like much more, we can work out a payment plan. Please contact our sales department at 1-800-PWNAGE

  6. Great article on The Biology of B-Movie Monsters · · Score: 0

    Now that was great article - very nicely put together.

  7. Get it off my lawn! on Pluto Making a Comeback · · Score: 1, Funny

    Planet (from PLANETAS), means sphere/round. But seriously, does round mean enough for a planet? If Pluto is a planet, than so are my balls - they orbit around Earth. Distance varies, but on average they orbit 1 meter away from the surface at various speeds... My definition of the planet: Object orbiting a star, not outside of it's terminal shock, that has escape velocity greater than 4 km/s.

  8. Standing up against Yau on New Yorker on Perelman and Poincaré Controversy · · Score: 0

    So basically it's one man in front of an egomaniacal tank of Yau ... familiar picture that is.

  9. Re:Interns and Cake Containers on Storage System for Thousands of CDs and DVDs? · · Score: 1

    FTFA means "Filipino Task Force on AIDS" according to acronymfinder.com. Did I miss something? She didn't say she had AIDS...

  10. File Servers on Microsoft Bracing for Worm Attack · · Score: 1, Informative

    Our enterprise file servers run w2k3sp1... Those ports are open on these machines. Basically we have to hope that noone brings infection inside.

  11. Paycheck on The Technology of Drug Prohibition · · Score: 1

    Half of my paycheck goes to my government, half of my paycheck goes to my dealer. GRRR.

  12. Wrong perspective on Charter Flight Websites / Services? · · Score: 2, Funny

    You just don't see their point of view. Remember how in doom in case of death you appeared at the beginning of the level with just the basic weapons? It was really pain in the behind if it was something like that "spider/fiery fat guys" square level, because you didn't have anything to find with. In the near future flights will be something like loosing your life in doom, only ADVANCED: In every single place (level) you woud have to get completely new identity: new wife, new job, new kids, new college degree etc.

  13. SLA on Dealing w/ Unsatisfied Customers? · · Score: 1

    I see the solution in placing enough numerical thresholds, which can be precisely tested. Once the performance can be precisely evaluated using scientific method (and not subjective "feel"), customer can either proove fault using scientific method, or be satisfied with the product.
