  1. Clone possibility? on DNA Analysis Suggests Humans Interbred With Denisovans · · Score: 1

    >> Now a team of scientists has been able to reconstruct their entire genome from these meager fragments.

    So, can they be re-created?

  2. Re:Don't think Manjaro gets the idea of Lightweigh on Arch Linux For Newbies? Manjaro Is Here! · · Score: 1
  3. makes sense but patent? on The Phantoms of Google+ · · Score: 1

    Smells again like the "single click" patent... However this is "grandparents" problem. I enjoy easy (lazy) Picassa album management but have parents that are not fb/g+/etc users and who want to look at pictures and rarely at my posts and never post anything... The "every person with link" distribution is good enough if I could create a group of "outsiders with emails"...

  4. Kurt Vonnegut dream came true? on An RC Car That Runs On Soda Can Rings · · Score: 2

    Self-powered, self-recycling cars made of.... aluminum?

  5. Did it happened? on Instant Quantum Communication Is Near · · Score: 1

    Well, yes and no...at the same time...

  6. hammer on Expensify CEO On 'Why We Won't Hire .NET Developers' · · Score: 1

    d'you ever asked carpenter if he had experience with hammers? LabView is a hammer for all that do not need/want programming but need to orchestrate repeating measurements.

  7. When can I see it on... on NASA Releases First 3D Images of the Sun · · Score: 1

    ...Google Maps?

  8. Re:How come the numbers are so different? on USCG Sues Copyright Defense Lawyer · · Score: 1

    The logic is different - it is negative advertisement to stealing (copying) the copyrighted material. Or, in other words, it's goal is exemplary punishment rather then a business plan.

  9. read TFA before screaming! on USCG Sues Copyright Defense Lawyer · · Score: 1

    TFA links to this article, which includes the filed petition and answer to it: http://torrentfreak.com/hurt-locker-sue-lawyer-who-helped-bittorrent-defendants-101124/ IANAL but reading the petition shows the UScg argues the following: - the forms are baseless for legal or procedural reasons - the petitions based on these forms failed in the courts - these petitions cased unnecessary (frivolous) burden on courts and UScg - the lawer selling the petitions and defendants using them are responsible for the above IANAL, but I hope there is nothing that can be considered a "legal services contract" between the seller of the forms and buyers, otherwise they may have some merit if their argument about procedural and legal bases of these forms are valid. BTW, the UScg are lawers, they may be full if sh*t but they are not idiots.

  10. Re:Duh on Report Indicates Widespread H-1B Visa Fraud · · Score: 1

    Nope, just bunch of H1B peoples....
