  1. Re:I completely agree. on Concern Mounts Over Self-Driving Cars Taking Away Freedom · · Score: 1

    Yeah, what if someone makes a laser satellite that will blow up any car that has an automatic driver? What'll you do then? You'll be feeling pretty stupid for buying that self-driving car then. And I'll be laughing. HAHAHAHAHAHA!!!

    Man, for long trips, this would be the shit. Driving on the freeway inter-city is the boringest ever, and just being able to let your mind drift and stare out the windows would be great.

    The most important thing he exposed was that tinfoil hats really do block government mind control satellite rays.

    I like the use of "pseudo-skeptic" to describe those who deny without proof on as flimsy a theory as believers.

    Oh, and one other thing I heard: the doctor put a stack of coins on the top of the machine and ask people who believed they'd had out of body experiences how much change was up there. And again, they either got it right or wrong depending on the bent of the person telling the story.

    I heard the same story, but everyone he asked could describe the poster in detail. And I heard he had a number written on top of one of the machines, and that was visible as well...

    Or maybe I didn't, I don't rightly remember.

    One this is for sure. I sincerely doubt there would be a poster of any sort permanently affixed in a sterile room.

    "Evil" is a subjective term...

    that's like saying, "hey, I can login using your account as long as I steal your password first."

    Some Catholics have done some truly horrible things, therefore the Catholic Church is a vast criminal conspiracy. That makes perfect sense, except it doesn't.

    Get the basic basic cable package, the one you don't need a box for. I do and I get all that plus local broadcasts, WGN, and Discovery (I have no idea why they show me Pay-Per-View previews, I can't order them). That's it. WGN might be a little too stimulating for you though...

    You know, it might just be that those people that took 4 hours just aren't good at running wires. It might not have had anything to do at all with the fact that they were black or women.

    The fact that you assert that there is a causal link with no evidence pretty much defines you as a racist misogynist. Did you have access to those particular students SAT scores? Have you assessed their high school transcripts? Did you compare their performance with any other students performance, other than your own? Sounds like a flawed observation to me.

  23. Ruggedization has more to do with internals on CES: American-Made, Industrial-Strength Smartphone and Tablet Cases (Video) · · Score: 2

    Making a ruggedized product has more to do with component selection and layout than it does with a tougher case. Failures happen when components become dislodged from the mobo's, not when the case cracks. In fact, the case cracking could be helping the computer/device because it's going to use energy that otherwise might go towards prying components off their pads.

    A ruggedized computer is not simply the same as a non-rugged version crammed into a heavier case. A waterproof and dustproof version is, though.
