The Best Burglar Alarm In History

Sportsqs writes "When Nikola Tesla got creative with transformers and driver circuits at the turn of the 20th century he probably had no idea that others would have so much fun with his concepts over a hundred years later. One such guy is an Australian named Peter who runs a website called TeslaDownUnder, which showcases all his wacky Tesla ways, or rather electrickery, as Peter calls it." Very cool stuff, I wish I would have had something like this to protect my comic books from my little brother when I was a kid.

The website seems DownUnder.

Slashdotted, or rather electrickery?

Burglar touches it, fries, starts screaming. There's your alarm.

Or at a bare minimum we should be talking about the guaranteed Obama/Blagojevich connection.

What did he know, and when did he know it?

Burglar gets in. Alarm activates. Burglar stays in. Any passers-by is alarmed enough to call the cops/fire department. Either that, or the burglar is alarmed enough to call the authorities himself to get rescued.

You both educated me and allowed me to fit you in one of those categories, all in one go. Nice!

I don't completely hate Idle, I go to Idle on a slow news day, but I don't think it belongs on the front page. I'd like to see a slashdot poll (I have just submitted this):

What would you most like to see done to people who think Idle should appear on the front page?

• Have their fingernails pulled out one by one without pain relief
• Have them fitted with a custom 1.3kW microwave helmet
• Covered in honey and placed on a fire ant nest
• Have their income wiped out by no one visiting ./ anymore because digg is better
• meh
• A week locked in the basement with CowboyNeal.
