  1. Re:Scare tactics... on Climate, Habitat Threaten Wild Coffee Species · · Score: 1

    Coffee is said to originate from Ethiopia/Eritrea hill country, but has been transplanted to SE Asia and Latin America among others and are adopted to their new homes with different characteristics.

    We'll keep them going as climate changes - they hold too high an economic value for us.

  2. Job for UN on Legislator Wants Cancer Warnings For Cell Phones · · Score: 1

    UN should set up a body to study the issue and reach a consensus. We must save the brains.

  3. "peer-reviewed" on OSU President Cans Anthrax Vaccine Research On Primates · · Score: 0, Troll

    That phrase is used like "Genuine" (tm) or something.

    God damn it, I need karma, not this bogus "funny" mods.

  5. Re:WTF? on Caltech Scientists Film Photons With Electrons · · Score: 5, Funny

    Fuck you mods. Seriously. Ivy League physics depts don't measure up to CalTech and MIT.

    Ok, that probably is irrelevant to this story, but fuck, when did relevancy ever mattered here?

    That's right. Fuck you. Fuck all'o you. I'm screwing a married theatre major on the side.

    OK. Screw you losers.

  6. WTF? on Caltech Scientists Film Photons With Electrons · · Score: 5, Funny

    It's Friday, I'm drunk, but what the FUCK?! I can't grasp..

    Fuck. CalTech. Guess them nerds do know what they're doing.

    I met nerds from CalTech and MIT. MIT nerds got nothing on CalTech nerds. When it comes to physics, I'd go with CalTech nerds. p. The nerd from my Ivy League school just don't measure up, including me...

  7. Re:I love .Net for the desktop on Has a Decade of .NET Delivered On Microsoft's Promises? · · Score: 1

    If you're noobs, as opposed to, you know, l44t (sp?), use code obfuscator.

    If you're leet (sp?), wrap it as a Perl script. It's the only way to be sure.

  8. Re:The really big win with .Net on Has a Decade of .NET Delivered On Microsoft's Promises? · · Score: 1

    It adds some pain of setting up interops between .NET land and native land (Win32, COM, assorted system service interfaces), but still way less pain, I agree.

  9. Re:.Not on Has a Decade of .NET Delivered On Microsoft's Promises? · · Score: 4, Insightful

    You're comparing odd bugs in Java implementations to .NET's inherent (and intended) tight coupling with Windows platform. Qualitatively different.

  10. Of that on Autonomous Intelligent Botnets Bouncing Back · · Score: 1

    88.2486% of the 208.7876 billion spams sent during the last fiscal year sent from IP ranges whose numerical sum exceeds 121.1156i8...

    Eh fuck the bullshit.

  11. Re:iPhone idiots on Angry AT&T Customers May Disrupt Service · · Score: 1, Flamebait

    Well, the iPhone idiots accomplished something impossible: make AT&T look sane.

    I hope it "suceeds."

  13. Re:Bought My Kids A Telescope For Christmas on Herschel's First Science Results, Eagle Nebula · · Score: -1, Troll

    Some pro tips for noobs:

    1. Remove the cap from the lenses.
    2. Usually, you point the the fat end out.
    3. When seeing something interesting, verify first by wiping clean the cheetos debris from the lenses.

    Have fun.

  14. Re:Showing muscles to the little guy? on ASCAP Seeks Licensing Fees For Guitar Hero Arcade · · Score: 2, Funny

    "She was HOT and she used it; you would have thought she was a hooker the way she played him."

    That's just bullshit. Unless you can corroborate with photos and video clips.

  15. Re:Conveniently forgetting the details on Israeli Border Police Shoot US Student's Laptop · · Score: 1

    Those goons must be hallucinating that they work for TSA or US Border Patrol.

    We spent a good month in the state of Gujarat. Great place, awesome people - I don't care what other Indians say. ;-)

    Man, I miss the Gujarati thali.

    Hey man, that's just a straight talk from one redneck to another. I'm just telling it like it is.

  21. Re:Naaaah on French Military Contributes To Thunderbird 3 · · Score: 1

    Such a moral indignation while calling the Viet Kong "a bunch of midget in black pajamas". *P

    My bet? You're a redneck Aussie. Keep yo head down and maybe we'll keep the Chinese in check away from you.

    Oh no! Not the dreaded PSYCHO PANEL!

  23. Re:Perhaps on Poorer Children More Likely To Get Antipsychotics · · Score: 1

    Or the other way around. Extra stress growing up/raising kids in poverty causes/exacerbates mental issues.

    Life is complicated, but one thing's for sure: it sucks to be poor.

  25. Re:What's wrong in getting lost, sometimes, anyway on Are Sat-Nav Systems Becoming Information Overload? · · Score: 1

    Well and good that you enjoy getting lost. There are, however, people who go to new area and need to do so in timely manner without getting bogged down with the sampling of local kumbaya vibe.
