  1. Re:ehh on Seven Reasons Microsoft Loves Open Source · · Score: 1

    An MS intern in 2005 told me that during the new employee orientation there was a segment on stopping the open source movement and why it's end was key to microsoft's future success. But as that has been two years of chewing the fat, I'd be willing to bet that it's no longer on the itinerary, or at least less broadcasted at the employee frequency.

    'Microsoft server ate my hard disk.' The trump card in the ol' microsoft lawyer suitcase. All they have to do now is line up a liberal jury ...

  3. Re:Health concerns on Future Desks to Charge Gadgets Wirelessly · · Score: 1

    The health concern is very real. However, worry not, as it is being studied carefully throughout development. They have a guy who sits at and walks around the desk, who will say 'yeow!' every time he gets shocked. Unfortunately, preliminary results suggest this phenomenon to be funny to the researchers only the first 500 times.

    they forget to say that all except 1 of the hundreds of millions of pages contain only left parenthesis and that they can sneakily use the plural 'secrets' because it is the first two fourths of a lisp hash function used on the string "Martha, I love the president's new hankercheif, but he still smells stinky."

    Marty, It's not entirely about profits. Running on veg grease is better for the environment. Also, if you want to talk economics, the development of veg oil fuel systems doesn't have to be about changing the entire fuel market to exclusively vegetable oil. There is such a thing as a niche market. Furthermore, because technology and research often branches outwards from existing technology, development and minor consumer interest in a area like this may inspire other alternative car fuel systems that use waste. I mean, its conceivable that one day we will be able to throw bananas into the mr.coffee like device sitting on the hood of our cars. This seems to be the general area of technology it could arise out of. Definitely not the worst idea ever thought of.

  6. Is this news? on RV Processes Own Fuel on Cross-Country Trip · · Score: 1

    The rock band Piebald did this on their tour, over a year ago . I'm not sure if they went across the entire breadth of the states, but I saw them in Seattle and they are from Boston.

    During that tour the singer made a lot of noise about greasenotgas.com, which has DIY directions on how to do this to your own car. Very noble and indie rock altruistic of them. I think they haven't even been shown on the O.C. yet.
