  1. Re:Isn't this using human beings like lab animals? on Ask Bas Lansdorp About Going to Mars, One Way · · Score: 1

    There are 7 billion of us, there is NOTHING wrong with asking for volunteers for exploration suicide missions . We do it EVERYDAY for far more petty things.

    You dont think the earth can malfunction? I would also like to point out that the survival rate for ALL humans is 0%

    You were operating a motorcycle at WELL beyond safe speed. Essentially suicidal even if you wont admit it to yourself. Further, riding a motorcycle on public roads is just plain stupid.

    He who holds monopoly on violence has moral authority. Ignore that at your peril.

    I tore apart my WUXGA D830 with nvidia graphics apart with my bare hands....damn thing always overheated and one day I had had enough.

  6. Re:Congratulations Arizona! on Arizona H-1B Workers Advised to Carry Papers At All Times · · Score: 2

    There is NOTHING wrong with requiring non-citizens (guests) to carry ID at all times. They are guests in our country and will act according to the law we put forth or leave.

    The Americas were militarily conquered. You have no claim to the land after that.

    You cannot compare subsidized pricing with unsubsidized pricing.

  9. Re:Going 7" is a smart choice on Google's Own Nexus Tablet Leaks Into the Wild · · Score: 1

    The 7" apple tablet is pure rumor, and Steve said outright they dont believe in it. Until there is hard evidence, im going to default that there will be no 7" apple device.

  10. Re:Sad... on Google's Own Nexus Tablet Leaks Into the Wild · · Score: 1

    You cannot buy a chinese 7" tablet for $150 that comes anywhere near the ipad in performance, ease of use or build quality. Also, if you drop an ipad its generally not total loss.

  11. Re:Sad... on Google's Own Nexus Tablet Leaks Into the Wild · · Score: 1

    Your iphone comparison is way off. Iphones are HEAVILY subsidized, making it alot easier to sell a phone that costs $200 to make for $99 tied to a contract worth roughly $2600 (2 year contract with voice and data)

  14. Re:General observation on Fires Sparked By Utah Target Shooters Prompt Evacuations · · Score: 1

    SO if im out shooting skeet and ricochet causes a wildfire, Im to be held personally responsible? You do realize you can spark rocks by walking over them to right? Would your logic still apply if i was out walking and started a bush fire by accident? What would be the effect of punishing me for walking in dry grass?

  15. Re:Here's the before and after on Apple Yanks Mac Virus Immunity Claims From Website · · Score: 1

    That marketspeak you quoted is factually correct. OSX is designed to be virus resilient. There is nothing wrong with that claim.

  16. Re:Suprising that no one has sued. on Apple Yanks Mac Virus Immunity Claims From Website · · Score: 0, Offtopic

    It depends on what safety features are installed. Lots of cars nowadays have electronic disaster mitigation to prevent slides and going out of control. The car will actively apply brake and retard throttle at the right places to keep the car stable.

    God you are a twat. Misogyny is another word for 'dont say mean things about girls because its not nice'. If the poster was referring to a guy and called him an asshole does that mean he hates men?

    And the xbox360 is a textbook case of royally screwing the pooch hardware design-wise. It took MULTIPLE revisions to tame the 360 into an acceptable piece of hardware
