  1. Re:4chan/2ch Witch Hunts on Crowdsourcing Failed In Boston Bombing Aftermath · · Score: 1

    I know one of the kitten killers they found was Luca Magnotta, who went on to kill people.

  2. Re:Oversupply due to China's policies on China Leads in "Clean" Energy Investment · · Score: 1

    Came here to say this, these numbers are probably from the solar industry dumping China's been doing (which contributed to the demise of Solyndra).

    Exhibit AS (legal exhibits follow Linux disk nomenclature right?)

    Yeah but people are still gonna browse, whether work-related or not...

    And at least 2 of them are looking for plumbers for the sewer system of Microsoft Hell :-Z

    Because somebody's going to run into some dumb website with a flash object that doesn't run on Gnash.

  7. Re:cheaper upfront cost, long term not so much on Building a Small IT Consulting Business Based on Linux (Video) · · Score: 1

    I keep hearing about the higher costs of Linux-capable staff but never experience it first-hand :-(

  8. Re:This is a losing proposition. on Building a Small IT Consulting Business Based on Linux (Video) · · Score: 5, Insightful

    Unless that business is in hosting, supercomputing, science, robotics, software development, or some other little cottage industry.

  9. Re:I predict fewer sales than Duke Nukem Forever on Omnidirectional Treadmill: The Ultimate FPS Input Device? · · Score: 1

    I can't progress through F1 2012 because it takes a half-hour to get practiced up to the level where I'm competitive at Professional or Legendary level, but at that point I'm too exhausted to do the race. I've done offroad rallies IRL with 10 hours of driving in a day...but this is too much.

    +1 also interested. And no, curated computing doesn't fucking count.

    If they're doing something they don't want anyone to know, maybe they shouldn't be doing it in the first place :-)

    Microsoft is a member of one of the industry associations against it along with Google. They want to take Google's lunch, not destroy it.

  13. Re:Balderdash on Hybrid RotorWing Design Transitions From Fixed To Rotary Wing Mid-Flight · · Score: 1

    Maybe the wing has no control surfaces. It could use control blending on the elevators and canards.

  14. Re:It's just an autogyro on Hybrid RotorWing Design Transitions From Fixed To Rotary Wing Mid-Flight · · Score: 1

    I wonder if autogyro mode could be used to transition between fixed wing and helicopter-like flight without the huge stalls. The wing could be unlocked and a little power applied to start auto-rotation, then it would be a matter of metering in more rotor power and tail rotor thrust to transition to helicopter mode. Heli to fixed wing would be the reverse. I can't imagine autogyro mode is too useful when you have fixed wing mode...maybe good for short takeoffs and landings.

  15. Re:The 6th Day on Hybrid RotorWing Design Transitions From Fixed To Rotary Wing Mid-Flight · · Score: 1

    D'oh, beaten. But they didn't work out how to stop it from diving during transition, the video shows it going into a huge stall when transitioning from fixed-wing to rotorcraft mode.

  16. Re:GOD DAMN NOOBTUBE! on Omnidirectional Treadmill: The Ultimate FPS Input Device? · · Score: 1

    Yep, almost everyone in the video is a rocket whore...including the guy on the omni-treadmill.

  17. Re:Aiming with your head on Omnidirectional Treadmill: The Ultimate FPS Input Device? · · Score: 1

    Jumping and crouching could be sensed with optical sensors. The gun would need to have controls that are usually on the mouse and keyboard: Maybe a button on the rifle stock for close aiming and a wheel for scope zoom, firing mode toggle for the more realistic shooters, buttons for weapons switch and maybe a big one where a magizine would go for reload.

  18. Re:Aiming with your head on Omnidirectional Treadmill: The Ultimate FPS Input Device? · · Score: 1

    Yep all shooters would have to be re-coded to separate looking from gun aiming.

  19. Re:Dream on. on Omnidirectional Treadmill: The Ultimate FPS Input Device? · · Score: 5, Funny

    I always say paintball is like playing an FPS where your character sucks and the force feedback is turned up too high, but the graphics and controls are AMAZING!

  20. Re:curious combination of issues on CBS Twitter Feed Compromised · · Score: 1

    Meanwhile, the FCC says 'obscenities' for propaganda is cool. Golly gee! If only Janet had "Bomb Iran" tattooed on her titties...

    If someone could get a woman, three dudes and a sharpie, with the right country names in the right places maybe they could get hardcore porn shown on TV.

  21. Re:Seriously, on Superstorm Sandy Shook the Earth · · Score: 2

    It's the same old fight against environmental regulations that's been going on at least since American cities were choking on coal smog in the late 1800s/early 1900s and the companies doing the polluting said that breathing it was good for your health.

    Again, is there any news of an Al Qaeda link in this attack or are you talking out of your ass? Is there any info that these Chechens have friends in Pakistan or do you just want to blow up some Pakistanis for no reason?
