  1. Personally, ... on The "Doctor Who" Model of Open Source · · Score: 3, Funny

    I find the "Dread Pirate Roberts" Model to be the most effective model for open source.

  2. Let's not put the cart before the horse on Introducing the Warpship · · Score: 5, Insightful

    How about we figure out how to warp time first and then figure out a ship to utilize that science for the sake of travel?

  3. I hope I'm not the only one... on Vicariously Tour the National Ignition Facility · · Score: 1

    I hope I'm not the only one who immediately thought of this: PIZZA NIF

  4. Taken with a grain of salt on Arrington's Web Tablet Nearly Ready For Launch? · · Score: 1

    Frankly, after the whole techcrunch/last.fm thing, I need some more concrete evidence from Mr. Arrington before I start taking anything he says seriously.

  5. Re:Crappy quality on Shuttle and Hubble Passing In Front of the Sun · · Score: 0, Redundant

    Yes, I've read all this, but my question is: Is this such a fantastic and amazing picture or am I just too accustomed to the high quality of NASA photos?

  6. Crappy quality on Shuttle and Hubble Passing In Front of the Sun · · Score: -1, Flamebait

    While I realize the difficulty of actually taking this picture, am I the only one who thinks this picture is actually really terrible quality? Or am I just used to much better quality from NASA photos?

  7. Sharks on A Monster LED Array For Irresponsible Fun · · Score: 5, Funny

    with frickin' LED arrays?

  8. Re:Academics To Predict Future! on Academics To Predict Next Twitter and Its Pitfalls · · Score: 1

    Somebody just got a big fat grant for sitting around and smoking big fat dubies.

  9. Authorial Intentionality on Is That "Sexting" Pic Illegal? A Scientific Test · · Score: 1

    The issue at hand here is really one of authorial intentionality. Clearly, the judge thinks the pictures were intended to be provocative and pornographic in nature, but, on the off-chance they were meant in good, semi-clean fun, can the judge really punish the kids for his interpretation of the pictures?
    The other side of the coin is that the girls clearly showed bad judgment in taking these pictures and sending them around, and there should be some appropriate form of punishment for their choices. Maybe the threat of child porn charges (without any intent to follow through on them) is a good idea.
    Having worked at a high school and a middle school, I hope that this is teaching a lesson to kids, but the reality is probably that they have no idea about this or that they just don't care anyway.

  10. Finally! on Want a Science Degree In Creationism? · · Score: 2, Insightful

    I can now get the degree I've always wanted: a FSM Studies Science Degree
    I just loved learning about His Noodly Appendage in high school and I want to pursue a higher education with a focus on Him.

  11. Is Samba 4 ready? on Locking Down Linux Desktops In an Enterprise? · · Score: 5, Informative
    from the FAQ:

    Can I use Samba 4 on my production server right now? No. Samba 4 is still under heavy development. Samba 4 is not due to replace Samba 3 soon. Many of the required core features are present, but the code is still alpha and user tools as well as some core features are still missing.

  12. Re:Why not? on Windows 7 Kill Switch For IE Confirmed — For More Apps, Too · · Score: 1

    I know what you're you're all saying, I've seen these problems too. The question is: did they realize the problem and fix it?

  13. Re:Why not? on Windows 7 Kill Switch For IE Confirmed — For More Apps, Too · · Score: 3, Insightful

    Does that mean that flaws in IE8 still leave a computer vulnerable if it's been "uninstalled?"

  14. Re:oh my head on New Law Will Require Camera Phones To "Click" · · Score: 1

    If the problem is stealing credit cards and taking panty shots, why not just up the penalty for getting caught taking those pictures?

  15. In college, ... on Study Abroad For Computer Science Majors? · · Score: 1

    I studied a broad or two.

  16. What's better than Anything 2.0? on Enterprise 2.0 · · Score: 1

    Everything 2.0!
    Seriously, when are we gonna move on with life and get off the 2.0 bandwagon?

    And no, I don't mean upgrading to 3.0

  17. Yes, Karen... on When Teachers Are Obstacles To Linux In Education · · Score: 1

    there is a free operating system... and it's not illegal!

  18. laptops only? on Compromising Wired Keyboards · · Score: 3, Insightful

    These videos indicate that the powersupply interferes with the signal, so they only test on laptops running on battery. Does this mean that it doesn't work on desktop computers?

  19. All that time and energy... on Now Google's CAPTCHA Is Broken · · Score: 1

    And still we don't have a cure for cancer. If you took all the brain power devoted to breaking captchas, we could solve a TON of problems.

  20. The answer to Jim's question: on "Water Bears" First Animals to Survive Trip Into Space Naked · · Score: 1

    So, it finally comes out, the water bear is best. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Ts9geuPWQvs

  21. Ballmer comment? on Google's Android Cellphone SDK Released · · Score: 1

    So does Steve Ballmer think this is still just a "press release?"
