  1. Re:Ah, robots! on Mars Rover Investigates Possibility of Ancient Microbial Life · · Score: 1

    We should have a dozen on the moon and let people pay to control them
    Can I have mine with a chainsaw?

  2. Not rocks! on Sliding Rocks Bemuse Scientists · · Score: 1

    I bet those turtles are mocking of us!

  3. Re:My humble 2 cents... on Discovery Channel's Games Documentary Impresses · · Score: 1

    When I say 'lots' I'm not saying 'all', and as we can see you're not the first one to misread my post. I love game with cool graphics and I'm always looking forward to change my video card to support the new features as the games are released.

    So, I'm not saying that graphics sux but, again, that SOME game houses forget the game play/histories/etc and only focus on graphics. I'm not generalizing.

  4. Re:My humble 2 cents... on Discovery Channel's Games Documentary Impresses · · Score: 1

    Good times when the hardware was limited and the focus was in the game itself, not only in the graphics as we see in lots of games nowadays.

  5. Re:The phrase on The Universe Damaged By Observation? · · Score: 3, Funny

    Those scientists must think outside the box... :D

  6. Re:Well, that's what you get on Police swoop on 'Hacker of the Year' · · Score: 2, Insightful

    He who finds a security hole must have been looking for a security hole, and the only reason to look for a security hole is to use it.

    Yes, he was searching for it. But your assumption that he intent to use it is not correct. Hackers are not always made by "pure evil", they can do good stuff if they want to. It's fun to find breaches and it makes you fell good when you report it and is recognized.

    I'm not saying that the guy is innocent, just telling the possibilities.

  7. Re:What is worse? on World of Warcraft's Brand New Rootkit · · Score: 1

    They're equally as completely different. :D

  8. Re:My Windows 7 Wishlist on Microsoft Windows 7 "Wishlist" Leaked · · Score: 1

    You're asking Windows to quit being Windows!

  9. Lazyness on New Project To End Stupidity Online · · Score: 1

    I'm absolutely sure that the guys behind it don't have anything to do!

  10. Re:OMG! on Star Trek XI Plot Details Revealed · · Score: 1

    I just gave up looking at that site to avoid the spoilers... and what I found here, on the FIRST post? #!@%!!!

  11. Too much Guessing on Ex AT&T Tech Says NSA Monitors All Web Traffic · · Score: 1

    Must of you guys are making too much noise for something not worthy. If NSA or another agency is able to track some important information on the traffic, they will. By the way, that's why they exist.

    The question about if they 'grep' all the information or part of it is not the main thing; in the end that's just curiosity from our geek side. The real guess is if they use whatever information they catch in a noble way or not - for the sake of the country or to keep the VIP's in the top of the food chain.

  12. Re:You're right -- it could be all honest. on Mandriva's Open Letter To Steve Ballmer · · Score: 1

    Correction and append:
    That's business, baby. People must learn that GLP is not holy and that M$ is not evil: that's just business, the best offer/product/service wins. I'm not saying that Windows is anyway better than Mandriva or any other distro, but M$ made a better job convincing the customer. The end.
    Mr François Bancilhon, stop being an emo.

  13. Re:You're right -- it could be all honest. on Mandriva's Open Letter To Steve Ballmer · · Score: 1

    That's business, baby. People must learn that GLP is not holy and that M$ is not evil: thanks just business, the best offer/product/service wins. Mr François Bancilhon, stop being an emo.

  14. Re:I don't believe it on One-Third of Employees Violate Company IT Policies · · Score: 1

    Well... considering that the fat guy on a big chair is the first one to break the rule (and this is a fact on most of the companies), the low-salary IT crowd don't get too motivated to follow the rule.

  15. Re:Why not Vista?? on News On Laptops For Education · · Score: 1

    Correct me if I'm wrong, but why use a system who demands that much hardware in a simple computer? Another point: since the main idea is use this for educational purposes, I don't think is necessary too much in terms of eye candy. I'm not saying that this is bad, but the machine resources should be used with care. And I'm not even talking about money... :)

  16. Why does the first post is *ALWAYS* funny? on Mythbusters to Test Cockroach Radiation Myth · · Score: 1, Interesting

    Why does the first post is *ALWAYS* funny? :D Doesn't meter the subject, the first one is always a joke or a sarcastic tag. Not complaining, just pointing my finger on it! Now regarding the cockroach... WHY IN THIS F****** WORLD THEY WANT TO KNOW IT?

  17. Re:Glad to see... on NASA To Send Luke's Lightsaber Into Space · · Score: 1

    Dude, if their railguns stop working, they have to defend themselves somehow! Bad, bad Martians...

  18. Re:Controlling the Russian Beast on Russia Claims IP Rights In Manufacture of AK-47 · · Score: 1

    I think this is just a lack of vodka.

  19. But... and the natives? on Surprising Further Evidence for a Wet Mars · · Score: 1

    What about finding martians? Water is so uncool... uncolored and unflavored!
