  1. Re:It is... on Scientists Create Compound With a Single Element · · Score: 1

    It was a bloody pun. Of course it's interesting.

  2. It is... on Scientists Create Compound With a Single Element · · Score: 0, Redundant

    Boring.

  3. Re:Doesn't need to be a spaceship on The Science and Physics of Back To the Future · · Score: 1

    Gravity is geometry of the universe. It feels the same, no matter how fast you're going through time.

  4. Re:Mod Up on The Environmental Impact of Google Searches · · Score: 1

    I do.

  5. Re:hello... on Milky Way Heavier Than Thought, and Spinning Faster · · Score: 1

    I think they discovered that the Milky Way spins faster than they thought, and therefore they had to calculate the mass again, which turned out to be twice as big than they predicted previously.

  6. Re:Free speech on UK Culture Secretary Wants Website Ratings, Censorship · · Score: 2, Insightful

    The point is that the child porn shouldn't be made, distribution is only a side effect of it being made.

  7. Re:Noooo on UK Culture Secretary Wants Website Ratings, Censorship · · Score: 1

    This reminds me of this guy that said that people won't land on the moon and that he will eat his hat if they will. He kept the promise and ate the hat.

  8. Re:Noooo on UK Culture Secretary Wants Website Ratings, Censorship · · Score: 1

    The point is that the movie rating system is not suited to the internet. Movies are usually produced by big companies which can be responsible for any content. The internet is made by people, for people. There often isn't any company behind the content

  9. Re:Censorship = Bad; This = Good, maybe? on UK Culture Secretary Wants Website Ratings, Censorship · · Score: 1

    Who says that the censorship will be used exclusively for that? Also, good luck installing that software on a linux machine when you don't have the password.

  10. Re:Noooo on UK Culture Secretary Wants Website Ratings, Censorship · · Score: 1

    Bring more censorship, then.

  11. Noooo on UK Culture Secretary Wants Website Ratings, Censorship · · Score: 5, Insightful

    *cringes in agony* Please, please, please don't bring censorship into UK. It will certainly be used in the way that the Chinese censorship is used. Why the hell does someone in every country think "Let's censor internet!"? Internet is not something to be censored, it's composed of the work of people who want to communicate. The government shouldn't choose what people can communicate to each other and what they can't.

  12. Re:Wine64??? on Wine Goes 64-Bit With Wine64 · · Score: 1

    Don't forget WINE8 and WINO16

  13. Re:Kudos for the improvements, but... on Firefox 3.1 Beta 2 Adds Private Browsing · · Score: 1

    Well, you won't get new features either.

  14. Microsoft won't keep up on A Cheat Sheet To All the Browser Betas · · Score: 1

    I predict a massive speedup in javascript execution in most camps... except for the Microsoft camp. I also predict that the browsers will be more streamline than ever... except for IE.

  15. Re:First on Race and Racism In Video Games · · Score: 1

    The Bible does describe racists incidents yet it itself is not racist. Even Jesus used a story of a Samaritan helping an injured Jew when people from his own country didn't to show how it doesn't matter which country your own. Remember that the Apostles didn't only preach to Jews but also to people from neighbouring countries like Greece and Rome(now it is Italy).

  16. Re:Professional easter eggs on Would You Add Easter Eggs To Software Produced At Work? · · Score: 1

    Don't forget the Photoshop easter eggs either!

  17. Re:Oh, get over yourself on Computer For a Child? · · Score: 1

    I forgot. Why?

  18. Re:Oh, get over yourself on Computer For a Child? · · Score: 0

    Actually, I did learn reading early on, which might have helped.

  19. Re:Oh, get over yourself on Computer For a Child? · · Score: 2, Insightful

    Oy, it doesn't take a prodigy to use a computer at age of 2. I got my first computer when I was 2 (it was a MS-DOS box) and I certainly aren't a prodigy. (right now I'm 14). I didn't have much trouble using it (except for the prompt command accident) and I certainly didn't break it, or even attempt to break it. It was my gateway to the world of computers.

  20. Re:Just Vaporware on Machine Condenses Drinking Water Out of Thin Air · · Score: 0

    Liquids aren't exactly solid. If they would, something would be wrong with the universe.

  21. Re:Not quite there yet on Most of Woolly Mammoth Genome Reconstructed · · Score: 0

    About mammoths roaming around... in India and Africa elephants are going around in wildness freely and nobody complains.

  22. Open-source on Software Is Starting To Aid Mathematical Proofs · · Score: 0

    The fun in using software for mathematical proofs is that in order for the proof to be valid, the code of the software must be published. If it isn't, the algorithms could be wrong and some code to fake results could be added, but if the source is out then it can be checked if it's valid or not.

  23. The dot on (Useful) Stupid Regex Tricks? · · Score: 0

    . Will find everything for you.

  24. Re:rm -rf / on (Useful) Stupid Unix Tricks? · · Score: 0

    No, not the inverse. I think it would be -42.

  25. Re:rm -rf / on (Useful) Stupid Unix Tricks? · · Score: 0

    Doesn't do anything.
