  1. Re:If I said I'm a Lumberjack, will I be Banned to on Gamer Claims Identifying As a Lesbian Led To Xbox Live Ban · · Score: 1

    He sleeps all night and he works all day.

  2. Re:UMR on Explosives Camp · · Score: 1

    It's Missouri University of Science and Technology (Missouri S&T). BTW, when I was a freshman at UMR, it was 87% male, 13% female, so at least it's getting better.

  3. Re:Trust the scientists... on Sunspots Reach 1000-Year Peak · · Score: 1

    I don't really think you can assume anything. Sure, they've probably addressed that issue, but just to assume that they've thought of that isn't very scientific. And as a fellow scientist, I'm not going to trust anyone just because they're a scientist. I'll trust them when I see their data and scrutinize their assumptions.

  4. Re:Rare diamond? on A Million-Dollar Laptop Created · · Score: 1

    Yeah, but does it void the spotted owl's warranty?

  5. quad-color? on Single Gene Gives Mice Three-Color Vision · · Score: 1

    quad-color? meh. Let me know when they find the gene for quad damage.

  6. not broken on For Unlucky 360 Owner Seventh Time's the Charm · · Score: 1

    I've had mine since early february 2006. I haven't had any problems whatsoever.

  7. Re:The power user vs the not so power user on IT Departments Fear Growing Expertise of Users · · Score: 5, Funny

    Well, since user #1 is probably a typical /.er, and user #2 is probably the long leggy blond girl from accounting/payroll. I'm going to go hang out under #2's desk for a while. I'll see you guys later.

  8. Glasses - real live HD on The State of Video Connections · · Score: 2, Insightful

    I got an HD-DVD player for Christmas. My first reaction was, "wow, this is really no better at all." A couple of weeks later, I got home from a long day of 3D modeling at work and decided to watch a movie. My eyes were so strained that I dusted off my old glasses that I haven't used since college and don't really need every day. I got to the HD-DVD logo and was blown away. Watching movies has almost completely changed for me. I would agree that many people can't tell the difference, but that doesn't mean that there isn't one.

  9. Xbox controller? on Listening Robot Senses Snipers · · Score: 4, Funny

    Too bad it's not controlled by a Wii controller. Then you could just kill the sniper with the controller and avoid the air strike altogether.

  10. because I must . . . on Facing the Dangers of Nanotech · · Score: 1

    I, for one, welcome our brain infesting, body-controlling overlords with their carbon nanoswords. w00tz!

  11. Re:Nuh-uh! on Venus's Surface May Be 1 Billion Years Old · · Score: 1
    Pick up a piece of litter today: you will be doing more for humanity than anything written in a holy book.
    So you think that the Bible doesn't have any good moral guidelines in it? Even if it were all a work of fiction (which I don't believe), it's still a good source of practical knowledge on how to relate to others. It's because of the Bible that I gave up 4 spring breaks in college to work in a homeless shelter, serving food and cleaning up after drug addicts instead of partying in Cancun with all of my classmates.
