    They didnt want to harm the kernel.

    Possibly out of respect for the 11 Secret Herbs and Spices?

  3. Re:Its a... on Ask Slashdot: Can You Identify This UAV? · · Score: 1

    This is a Soviet MIRV-Six, from an SS-22N launch vehicle. The warhead contains 14.5 kilos of enriched uranium, with a plutonium trigger. The nominal yield is 10 kilotons.

    Wow, in that case the dude in the photo really shouldn't be holding it that close to his crotch.
    Then again, Schwarzenegger probably now wishes he truly fired blanks, damn fake movie props.

    In this instance, it seems like they really are trying to fix a mistake.

    If they wanted to "fix" the mistake they could pay for OnLive service for anyone that was deprived of the experience by this unethical practice. Anything else is just blowing smoke up the customers asses.

    Hey, that's the spirit! Maybe we could make the little buggers display a message when they atomize.

  11. Re:too small - space gravel on Evaluating the Capabilities of Chip-Sized Spacecraft · · Score: 1

    You ever get your windshield smacked by something that fell off a truck (like gravel or rock) and catch up to the offender to get insurance info? I have, a fist size rock almost came through the glass and I and another motorist (also hit) caught up to the trucker to get his info.

    So here we are on our little mud ball, and something like the Vogons suddenly show up to collect from us for destruction of something they value... or worse they assume it was a stealth attack on a craft that was just going about it's business someplace far away from us.

    Space may not be ours to crap up as we see fit.

  13. Re:Well on Has LHC Seen a Hint of the Higgs? · · Score: 1

    Well, a wormhole assumes that there's a black hole, and I can still sit here and type. Of course, it could be that it *did* open a wormhole to another dimension, and we (the entire planet) were sucked into it. It just happens that this other dimension is exactly like ours, except the moon is made out of cheese. I guess we won't know until someone brings back a new moon rock for a taste-test.

    Could this Bree?

  14. Re:This is not what you think on Senators Taking Sides In AT&T/T Mobile Merger · · Score: 2

    Mentioning Al Franken in the presence of self proclaimed "conservatives" is like waving a red flag at a bull. They will stampede to proclaim the NBC/Comcast merger as a shining beacon of free market supremacy and the best thing for the consumer since sliced bread.

    What an apropos analogy. The advent of sliced bread was hailed as a time and labor saving wonder. But people lost control of what was in the bread. When you cut bread into thin layers the increased surface area provides more opportunity for mold to take hold. Also, moisture is lost at every cut, allowing the bread to go stale faster than whole loaf bread. These problems are overcome with additives not used in home baked bread. Most people won't bother to make bread, and thus are locked into what is sold at the local store. In 2008, the U.S. bread market reached $20.5 billion, a free market triumph of epic proportions... as long as you don't care about what you are eating.

    That didn't jump, it shimmed up some ass-hat's penis... unless said ass-hat had a monkey in his butt, in which case it was a direct deposit deal.

    The dreaded Tupper Warewolf is the worst. In spite of what they think, these beasts do not know how to party...

    How is this going to help improve my sexual performance?

    A voice in the bedroom saying

  19. 1990? on Roundabout Revolution Sweeping US · · Score: 1

    Really, no traffic circles before that? The one in Orange CA. has been there for at least 50 years, but I suspect much longer as it has what the city calls historical buildings around it.
    33.787841,-117.853105
    I'm sure that's not the only old one in the US. The big problem with traffic circles is people get into the inside lane and then are stuck due to the flow of traffic... When everything is a right turn there really should not be a left lane.

    Hey! That would be a good idea for a TV show... A boss could go "undercover" in their own operation to see how things really work and find out what caliber of employees currently represent the company.
    Doing it with middle management would not help as they would simply be looking to glorify themselves or cover their asses.
