  1. Re:Sub Captain had an Advantage on Chinese Sub Pops Up Amid US Navy Exercise · · Score: 1

    The exercises themselves aren't classified usually. It's the location that's usually classified. A lot of the exercises will appear in a public newspaper such as the navy times which is available to anyone who'd like to have a subscription.

  2. Re:Supply will increase massively soon on Multitouch Without Touch Using Wiimote · · Score: 1

    I live on an overseas military base which makes it just a bit harder to get since we don't get as much stock of stuff as civilians stores (heck we don't even have guitar hero 3 yet) What they would do here is raffle the chance to buy the wii since military members would all be at work and hte wives would just pick them all up and leave us working guys out of look. I walked in randomly one evening about 5 minutes before they closed and saw a whole bunch on display...so for what it's worth maybe you can pick one up that way.

  3. Re:a little tweak on House Narrowly Avoids Having to Debate Impeachment of Cheney · · Score: 1

    That aside, as far as causing a store and leading the provocation he would appear to be the front runner

  4. Re:a little tweak on House Narrowly Avoids Having to Debate Impeachment of Cheney · · Score: 1

    that may be true, but I personally, given the kind of person President Amhadinejad seems to be, think that he would make the first strike against us. At least not publicly. I feel that if he indeed wanted open aggression with the united states that he would make them strike first as to make the US look overly aggressive and perhaps create sympathy for their plight. Mind games really. Winning a war is not about just firepower. As the Iraq war has shown us, words are as powerful as the gun that you have. The power to move people, albeit by deception, gives you an army that is willing to kill themselves to kill you. If we attack Iran as we did Iraq the US will have every arab within 3000 miles honing their sights on them.

  5. that would suck on Genetic Modification Produces Mighty Mouse · · Score: 1

    I was on the pursuit of this mouse that lived in my place for about 4 months up until I finally killed it by dropping something on it....luckily nothing splattered. that thing was a pain in the ass to get rid of. it wouldn't fall for mouse traps so I actually had to hunt it.

  6. what about all the girls on Over-50s Invade the Social Networking Scene · · Score: 1

    Who put 99 as their age? does it count this in the numbers?

  7. viral marketing on Manhunt 2 Leaked By Sony Europe Employee · · Score: 2

    jeez is sony still trying to make it's own viral ads to sell ps3s? BAD SONY! BAD SONY!

  8. I'm pretty sure I'm not the only one on Federal Anti-Obscenity Program Comes Up Limp · · Score: 1

    That found the title to be a bit amusing.

  9. Personally on Bank Run in Second Life · · Score: 1, Troll

    I'm kinda sick and tired of hearing about second life. Anyone else out there feel the same?

  10. House on A 3-D View of the Brain · · Score: 2, Funny

    great...now Dr. House will be ordering up a million of these on every episode.

  11. Re:6 Billion users.... on It's Time for Social Networks to Open Up · · Score: 1

    the little kids in africa are getting dial up finally! 1 dollar per month access!

  12. Re:Casinos in Atlantic City for one.. on Our ATM Is Broken, Go To Jail · · Score: 1

    Actually had a funny conversation with a young englishman in London. Went something like, "What's up with your money?"-Him "What do you mean?"-Me "It's all the same size."-Him "And?"-Me "Isn't that confusing?" -Him "No, we can read in America." -Me note that this was all said in good fun and in no way meant to put down our eurofriends....I even live in europe :).

  13. Re:Not to smart either? on No Online Co-Op For Halo 3 At Launch · · Score: 1

    I really don't see how it can't be done...I mean we have a massive game say like world of warcraft with thousands of people playing at once and a large group of people playing together able to do this. I mean I'm sure it's not too much of a stretch to see it happen. I mean I'd hate to suggest it but I would pull a valve and push the game back to make sure that nothing is left behind to make it anything other than a stellar game.I mean I had no problem waiting for Half Life 2 because it was simply well worth the wait.

  14. Don't mean to get off topic but... on E3 - So, How Did It Go? · · Score: 1

    Did anyone catch star wars the force unleashed? I'm quite looking forward to this game. I think it's gonna be THAT game which will make me finally buy one of the newer consoles. At this point I want something that'll let me play guitar hero :D

  15. someone beat me to the overlord comment on First Robotic Drone Squadron Deployed · · Score: 3, Funny

    It's a good way to risk lest pilot's lives but in reality how hard would it be to jam communications? I mean Lonestar could do it.

  16. Re:Italian Radio on Web Radio Negotiations Carry Poison Pill · · Score: 1

    I still live in italy and I will throw down an AMEN on that. They're talking through the intro and usually end up singing the end of the songs....hearing them with their accents it's quite hilarious actually.

  17. is it me.... on Robot Unravels the Mystery of Walking · · Score: 1

    or does anyone else find it a little funny how they did a study on a task that's as basic as putting right in front of left and vice versa?

  18. Re:famous last words on Analyst Says Blu-ray DRM Safe For 10 Years · · Score: 1

    trying to time it so you can complete the hack and cum at the same time?

  19. In mother russia....toilots control you! on NASA Purchases $19M Russian Space Toilet · · Score: 1

    Leave it up to our space exploration agency to just go waste money like that.....makes me wonder...why couldn't we just use the toilets we got off the aliens in the space station?

  20. Re:Vodafone on O2 Offered iPhone Contract in UK · · Score: 1

    me the only time I heard of it was in england. Meh.

  21. Re:You know what would really be great. on Matt Groening to be Final Boss in New Simpsons Game · · Score: 1

    I think a Simpsons MMO would be better.

  22. Vodafone on O2 Offered iPhone Contract in UK · · Score: 1

    I would've thought it would've ended up on a more international carrier like vodaphone or something. Here in italy a ton of people seem to have their really snazzy cellphones so I'm sure they'd just gobble this shit up.

  23. elsapo on MPAA Sets Up Fake Site to Catch Pirates · · Score: 1, Insightful

    This almost sounds illegal :-/. But hey the MPAA and RIAA are the most important group of people in the world right?

  24. iPhone shuffle on Free the iPhone from AT&T · · Score: 3, Funny

    I'll take one!

  25. a solution that works somewhat here..... on Cart Locking System Released as Open Source · · Score: 2, Insightful

    we have shopping carts that are all chained together...you insert a one euro coin to remove it and then take the cart back to the cart corral to retrieve your coin....it seems to work fairly well here.
