  1. irrelevant on The Lancet Recants Study Linking Autism To Vaccine · · Score: 1

    irrelevant because that's not considered the ONLY source of autism. Please don't repeat for a third time.

  2. Re:My favorite thing about the 2012ers... on "2012" a Miscalculation; Actual Calendar Ends 2220 · · Score: 1

    a date after 2012 can still happen without an earth in existence, so no, that's not enough evidence to plan ahead to 2013. Enjoy the last few years here, and hope like hell you can hitch-hike out in time.

  3. credit card on LG Presents Solar Powered E-Book · · Score: 1

    But what about the .7mm wide credit card invention, from the article - "10 centimeter wide thin-film panel that is .7mm thin - the width of a credit card." What a crappy article. And what a crappy lot of slashdot replies, you (we?) really embarrass yourselves with your stupidity sometimes. - Who reads for 24 hours in a day and would require the full sunlight for the 5 hours to keep it going? - Obviously many of you haven't seen solar powered calculaters that have never been outside in their still operating lives. - Why can't many of you see the immediate benefit of never having to recharge? Hye, load on the full gutenburg and never ever need another book in your life and never have to recharge. Unless you can't miss Dan Brown's latest of course. - Why would LG release details and images of such a crappy prototype device? When a much better sample would have been trivial.

  4. Re:Great, but where's the list of available books? on Google Offering Print Versions of Online Books · · Score: 1

    i think you'll find the catalog is called google and can be found on this internet thing you may have met.... love this idea of On Demand Books. Until I get a good e-reader I guess. But i do love having a house full of dead trees.

  5. Re:It's hard enough dealing with ONE Telstra on AU Goverment To Break Up Telstra; Filtering News · · Score: 1

    and do remember that Australia is just a very remote US state, so that's why we want content from USA. But then again, my co-programmer is in Japan (on a slow connection).

  6. old junk on Running Old Desktops Headless? · · Score: 1

    and not just repair shops, but the next cleanout is getting closer......

  7. Re:Anti-Slashdot Effect on GMail Experiences Serious Outage · · Score: 1

    You obviously care since you replied. So I guess that's one person at least who cares.

  8. its from mars on Treasured "Moon Rock" Is Petrified Wood · · Score: 1

    clearly its a meteorite from mars, which obviously did have trees. It doesn't look at all cheesy so can't be from any moon we know about. Proves that man did go to the moon since they haven't gone to Mars yet.

  9. Re:MvP on Microsoft Trial Misconduct Cost $40 Million · · Score: 1

    what continent would that be then?

  10. Re:God was drunk on A Planet That Orbits Its Star the Wrong Way · · Score: 1

    nah, god just didn't care. He knew it was wrong but he didn't think anyone would ever look there. You know, like that corner of the basement you haven't bothered dusting, or that one obsolete comment you never removed from your code. No one will see it, no one will care.

  11. careful when evolving on 10 Worst Evolutionary Designs · · Score: 1

    Its all just fun and games. Enjoy. Just be careful you don't evolve anything stupid on yourself when drunk.

  12. Re:Spartan Giraffes on 10 Worst Evolutionary Designs · · Score: 1

    good thing it turned up on your main page then isn't it, otherwise we'd never have shared your knowledge of animal clitori.

  13. Re:America's last great industry... on RIAA Awarded $675,000 In Tenenbaum Trial · · Score: 1

    Use of the broken window fallacy is a fallacy. Don't use it. The prOn may be trolling but his essential point is correct. It is deliberate theft, even if 'everyone' is doing it.

  14. Total War series on Which Game Series Would You Reboot? · · Score: 1

    This series so needs to be rebooted, STW followed by MTW but then they lost the plot.

  15. Re:Misunderstanding evolution on New Zealand Tree Stuck In Evolutionary Time Warp · · Score: 1

    "500 years is enough time for some change to be noticed." if they were rabbits. They are trees. Slightly different time frames. For some tree types this is still the same generation.

  16. Re:Cyanobacteria aren't even close to algae. on Novel Algae Fuel-Farming Method Gets Big Backing · · Score: 1

    yeah nice, but do they have soul? are they part of the re-incarnation cycle? is it moral to do this?

  17. Re:Proof of concept? on Novel Algae Fuel-Farming Method Gets Big Backing · · Score: 1

    the more ethanol you use the sooner these legacy engines will be out of service. and the more car industry workers you can employ to make new engines.

  18. Re:from a 24 acre demonstration plant on Novel Algae Fuel-Farming Method Gets Big Backing · · Score: 1

    well make them somewhere more useful - I'm pretty sure there's plenty of desert that can be used near the sea in the arab states, and they could always use more money.

  19. huh? on CrunchPad Will Be a 'Dead Simple Web Tablet' · · Score: 1

    what's a 40 column display got to do with discussing what is the minimum for an 80 column display? C64 sales vs sales of PCs (all basically the same so put them together). Not sure if the C64 really wins. What is your historical count of C64 sales anyway?

  20. Re:Dune II, not C&C on Vintage Games · · Score: 1

    I think DuneII has been acknowledged in this role for MANY years. So yeah, its the one that should be in the book.

  21. Re:Units! on Australia To Build Fiber-To-the-Premises Network · · Score: 1

    yes they are.

  22. Re:heliocentrism? on Texas Vote May Challenge Teaching of Evolution · · Score: 1

    "Would my original point have been clearer if I used a car analogy?" If you have a car analogy then why didn't you use it? That's just selfish. Share. Should science teachers use car analogies too? question: how do creationists explain horses evolving into cars?

  23. Re:heliocentrism? on Texas Vote May Challenge Teaching of Evolution · · Score: 1

    everything revolves around everything. it just depends on your viewpoint. its a lot easier to calculate the movements around the major gravity well but comeone, you can say what ever you like is the centre point; the earth, the sun, the universal gravitational centre, that pretty girl over there, or even the M.C.G. (melb,vic,australia). So yeah, the Earth still goes around the sun, the sun goes around the earth, both are correct, get over it.

  24. Re:Some more interesting facts... on Is Climate Change Affecting Bushfires? · · Score: 1

    except it was hotter than the 1930's. also 1930's worst fire (Black Friday) Fire Danger Rating of 100, Black Saturday 200+. Climate has changed - no debate needed anymore. Cause - debate all you want. Solution - nah too hard.
