Mr Young

I liked the text...

"But people who are willing to kill innocents en masse as a primary goal are fairly rare birds.". I might be mistaken but that actually sounds like somebody talking UP humans for a change - good. Hmmm? I guess I'll never get a look oot a pilots window now. Waah, waah, moan - Jim'll fix it maybe?

You and what Android? The Google iPhone killer that isn't

Mr Young
Pint

Is it a mobile phone?

I prefer the small ones (ie pocket sized, usable, convenient)! Does this new glass pancake brick thingy switch off after 30 seconds if you don't gently stroke (or maybe lick) the screen?

@Mr Pedantic

Thank you Mr Pedantic. Now, my roboroach actually has 7 guns and I bet he's bigger than yours! And, yes, he does count his guns all the time?! It would appear he has been traumatised by the 23rd Century Space Wars and the time travel also seems to have done something weird to his hybrid serial killer/shark AI unit as well. Other than that he's ok, hic...

Gun totting giant robot cockroach?

Now I really am scared! Actually, nah - just shoot the fucker. Bullet size tbd.

Jimbo - blog off

Annoyance and abuse is standard - its called REALITY last time I looked. Nowhere near as bad as a patronising f&^£kbderr.

A decade to forget - how Microsoft lost its mojo

Mr Young
Pint

You know...

I'm no fanboi when it comes to Microsoft but they have provided compatibility haven't they? It's nice and speedy dev. using a processor emulator with WinXP and I've got ZERO chance of any other OS option! Flames? please, no...

Hello luis sancho?

Can you help with my math? I forgot how many fingers I have?

Mr Young

Playmobile?

I haven't looked at that for a while. Maybe an LHC boffin/collision/custard/portal/alien/tinfoil thingy? Surely thats been suggested already

Generators and UPS fail in London datacentre outage

Mr Young
Pint

Battery not do it?

I'm pretty sure a test/maintenance/replace schedule (whatever it's called) for their batteries would help? Anyway - a diesel generator should have sorted the problem just like that! FAIL

Aus gov dredges up cuter panic-button for kids online

Mr Young
Pint

Panic Button?

Sounds good - can I have one? Does it work when the kids ask me for money? Maybe it could put my wallet beside that LHC device then they might not notice it - what with the space/time distortions and all that etc?

Mr Young
Pint

A public transport thing surely?

Yet another excuse not to get on a bus. I mean - who would want their slow motion, toppling, metal crunching, fiery and sliding death to end up on that internet thingy.

US boffins hail lab-grown rabbit todger

@seanj

I wondered about that as well? Did a scientist whack an animals nob badly? Just to see if it could be fixed again? That is just bad nature man!

'Stop NASA bombing the Moon!'

Mr Young
Pint

I know nothing...

...but a quick google got me interested - have you seen the abuse planets can take? Aitken Basin on the moon? Herschel Crater on Mimas(Saturn moon I think - no expert)?

Enough of that - are these hippies running scared cause NASA found their lentil and herb stash? Dark side of the moon? Or is it the end of the world again?OMG!

Mozilla sides with Microsoft against Google IE

Mr Young

@Chris Thomas Alpha

I agree. Try write a small assembly language routine and trap all errors with flags and stuff (ie timer interrupts). Move along now, ASCII commentards.

Batteries

100,000ft - no experience with that. If any electrickery is required then Lithium Thionyl Chloride Batteries go to -55 celcius! (See Farnell/Saft etc). Don't know about vacuum though! Anyway - all micros are rated at -40 at best...Hmmm

Data Collection

Maybe it's just me but I consider any information about me actually belongs to me? Wait a minute - I should be receiving a fat license fee everytime it's accessed/viewed/used by anybody for any purpose? Like, eh, that'll happen! I'm not bashing Open Source either, cause you can give anything you want, for free, to anyboby, if you want! Har,Har,FAIL

Coffee/keyboard

@Jimbo 7

Eeek - it's called sarcasm, maybe I'm not very good at it. Anyway, with lifetime costs, solar panels can't compete with Grid Power and batteries can't compete with anything I can put in a fuel tank - I done the math. Maybe some day though. I just don't like Yahoo!

Mr Young
Pint

Yahoo?

Are they really that big? Just where have I been? I thought a couple of 100w Solar Panels would have done 'em just fine. Maybe its that stoopid fucking opt out tickbox on Java updates.

EM Launch

Cool - floating military airport is a great idea! As for EM launch - I suppose you'd need a freaking serious amount of electrons and copper cable for that! It actually might be on ok idea - maybe assist launch into orbit one day with reduced fuel payload? Anyway, will it do Philadelphia Experiment and launch me through space and time, or just stop my wristwatch exactly at the start of tea break, forever?
