  1. Re:It all comes down to $$$ on The Pirate Bay Tops 10 Million Users · · Score: 0

    The difference is Google honors DMCA requests.

  2. Re:I love this quote on FEMA Sorry for Faking News Briefing · · Score: 0

    Unless we're all just five-year-olds walking around using big words and operating dangerous machinery...

  3. Re:Looks Familiar on Nanotube Body Armor Coming Soon · · Score: 0

    Did you just slashdot the geocities site of somebody you didn't like? If so, nice.

  4. Cult Suicides? on Comet Unexpectedly Brightens a Millionfold · · Score: 0

    Were there any obscure cults waiting for something like this? One similar to Heaven's Gate perhaps?

  5. Re:ZOMG!! Squeal!! on Comcast May Face Lawsuits Over BitTorrent Filtering · · Score: 0

    Unless every Comcast subscriber decides to switch providers, wouldn't participating in such a lawsuit be shooting oneself in the foot? It could result in higher prices to offset the perceived cost of not doing the p2p restrictions during times of high bandwidth consumption.

  13. Failure of Newspaper / Slashdot Editors? on 48% of Americans Reject Evolution · · Score: 1

    It appears the 48% statistic given by slashdot and the MSNBC / Newsweek article may have been transcribed incorrectly by the journalist summarizing the data. According to the poll data tables (http://www.msnbc.msn.com/id/17875540/site/newswee k/) (see table 13) linked from the original article, the 48% is actually the number of people who said evolution is 'Well-supported.'

    Also from the same table:
    --39% think evolution is 'Not well supported.'
    --13% 'don't know.'

    But this doesn't change my opinion that it's still a rather poor poll question.
