Comment Not Re:Bullshit (Score 2, Informative) 380

Kirby was involved in the creation of both Spider-Man and Iron Man. Yes, Steve Ditko redesigned the character that Kirby created and drew the character's first stories. Don Heck drew the first story appearance of Iron Man because Jack couldn't draw everything. Kirby, interestingly enough, drew the covers for both first appearances of Spider-Man and Iron Man.

This is all well documented with citations on wikipedia.

Joe Simon also had a hand in creating Spider-Man. If you want to go back far enough, there's a pulp character called The Spider that one could argue was partial inspiration for Spider-Man.

"Of course, you could use paper ... but then you take the risk that people will still be able to read 17 years into the future!"

How would non-paper storage of the same data alleviate the need to be read by people?

And don't go replying with "*wooosh*"! I get the joke, but the joke is flawed. If you don't understand the flaw, then *wooosh* back at ya!

Comment Killer App idea for the Roku box. (Score 1) 66

If only there was a way to take any video I can now view on my computer and display it on my TV with this nifty box.

That would be a killer app. There's tons of video I now watch on my computer that I'd rather watch on my TV.

This should be pretty simple to accomplish with their developer kit, right?

I'm on a Mac if anyone wants me to beta test this.
