  1. Re:3D in gaming isn't even done technically well on Don't Go 3D For 3D's Sake, Says Sony · · Score: 1

    nvidia has just that with 3dvision. on the pc. you can adjust the divergence and depth in game, have profiles for each game, no problem.

  2. Re:What's that supposed to mean? on Australian R18+ Rating For Games? Not Yet; NSW Refuses To Vote · · Score: 1

    dude. this is australia. our constitution doesnt have quite the force of the U.S. constitution.

  3. Re:we still need to get rid of tech the test maybe on How Education Is Changing Thanks To Khan Academy · · Score: 1

    sweet fucking crap your grammar is painful to read.

  4. Re:Misleading summary ... on Apollo 11 Flag Swatch Goes Unsold At L.A. Auction · · Score: 1

    if im gonna pay 100 grand for a piece of something, it better have fucking gone to the moon. accept no substitute.

  5. Re:Be warned of the summary. on LG Cinema 3D TV Get Full HD Certification From VDE · · Score: 1

    yeah. and the prices of those are dropping too, if youve been taking notice.

  6. Re:Be warned of the summary. on LG Cinema 3D TV Get Full HD Certification From VDE · · Score: 1

    in 10 years, the price difference between 120hz and 60hz displays will be so small that pretty much every tv and monitor sold will be capable of 3d.

  7. lg on LG Cinema 3D TV Get Full HD Certification From VDE · · Score: 1

    ive had a look at that polarised display in the shop. the ghosting was pretty bad. if they can fix that, and maybe double the horizonal resolution to compensate for using alternate lines, they got a winner. i could use flipdowns on my prescription glasses instead of wearing another full set of expensive specs over the top.

  8. third eye on The Birth of Optogenetics · · Score: 1

    so i guess ill be getting a fourth eye soon.

  9. Re:Provided it is given it the means to stay ahead on Can the US Still Lead In Space Despite Shuttle's End? · · Score: 1

    skylon does not, at the moment, carry the burden of actually existing, whereas the falcon 9 has completed 2 launches, and has a set price, and realistic methods to reduce that price, for example ramping up production to take advantage of economies of scale. they have matched their 'hype' with results, and are making, in my opinion, entirely credible claims about their future plans.

  10. Re:In before someone speaks for the businesses on Calling BS On Unpaid Internships · · Score: 1

    its indentured servitude because when you remove the requirement to pay someone for working for you, actual paid positions for those who are entering employment disappear pretty fucking quickly, leaving little choice left. and as for whinging about the minimum wage, that sounds like the petulant stamping of feet and pouting of rich business owners who cannot keep all the money they make because the government has decided that their workers deserve enough money to, you know, feed and shelter themselves.

  11. Re:A different perspective on Calling BS On Unpaid Internships · · Score: 2

    maybe he wants to gloat. like a dick.

  12. Re:Hardware That Doesn't Crash Or Blowup on NASA Funded Commercial Space Projects Heating Up · · Score: 3, Insightful

    im pretty sure pretty much all rockets have failures early in their development careers. spacex mitigated that somewhat with having its failures on its smaller falcon 1 rocket, and once they ironed out the issues, built its larger more expensive falcon 9, which is 2 for 2 successes so far. so quit your anonymous coward bitching. spacex are putting more shit in space for less cost than the fucking chinese for fucks sake.

  13. Re:How was it discovered? on ISS Nearly Clobbered By Space Debris · · Score: 1

    you can be pretty much guranteed its enough.

  14. Re:Missing the point on New Process Allows Fuel Cells To Run On Coal · · Score: 1

    i also read that they can capture the waste heat from the process and put it through conventional turbines, bumping up the total efficiency to 80%.

  15. fuck hippies. on The Intentional Flooding of America's Heartland · · Score: -1, Flamebait

    fuck hippies.

  16. Re:"Screaming, Mindless Christians" ?? on Politics: Paul-Barney Bill Would Legalize Marijuana Federally · · Score: 1

    yeah. and theres so gosh darn much of it. christians in america are so persecuted. also, they are well known for their pro-marijuana legalization stance, and are prone to bouts of well considered opinion forming based on facts and quantitative analysis of the societal impacts of drug policy, and then engaging in polite and constructive discussion on said policy. cough.

  17. footage please on An Entirely New Class of Aircraft Arrives · · Score: 1

    does anyone have any video of it, you know, flying?

  20. Re:Complete and Total Over-reaction on Germany To End Nuclear Power By 2022 · · Score: 1

    well we could always put it back in the ground where we found it, with no containment whatsoever, like we originally mined it out of the ground as.

  21. water on Discovery of Water In Moon May Alter Origin Theory · · Score: 1
