  1. Re:Wisdom from DS9 on Hawking: No 'Theory of Everything' · · Score: 1

    Wouldn't be neat if it turns out to be something like a DNA string with certain parts inert for different scales of measure?

  2. Re:Does it matter? on Senate Confirms Elena Kagan's Appointment To SCOTUS · · Score: 4, Insightful

    spiffmastercow said "...I don't know a single democrat who wants to ban guns." So Daly in Chicago is not a Democrat?

  3. Re:What stinks about this is on Girl Seeks Help On Facebook During Assault · · Score: 1

    No blame on the dude? You are a sick person!

  4. Re:Survived? on Ozzy Osbourne To Be Genetically Decoded · · Score: 1

    Where do you live that people aren't arrested for drunk and incapable? We have many arrested for DUI and public intoxication here. What you describe sounds like some fantasy land.

  5. Re:Why take them out? on Arizona Backs Off Its Speed Camera Program · · Score: 1

    So are you implying that they should not have a secure border or not? Hard to read your comment.

  6. Re:If you don't like it don't buy it on Final Fight Brings Restrictive DRM To the PS3 · · Score: 1

    You are saying that they have to conform to logic and that they can't blame pirates? You must be a new Anonymous Coward here.

  7. Re:in other words... on Ubisoft Says No More Game Manuals · · Score: 1

    Please enter the 5th word in the 2nd paragraph on page 21 in your manual to continue with the game...

  8. Re:McLibel on British Chiropractors Drop Case Against Simon Singh · · Score: 2, Informative

    A few small, rich voices can make a difference!
    Part of his complaint with regard to the lawsuit was that the Chiropractors' Association that sued him also sue poor people who should have free speech rights that are socked with having to settle because they can't afford the legal costs.

  9. Re:Not really so on Microsoft and Apple Rumble Into Middle Age · · Score: 5, Insightful

    Many of those games you mention are acquisitions by Microsoft, not developed in-house. That is not innovation, it is acquisition.

  10. Re:Duh -is this a line from Smokey and the Bandit? on Young Men Who Smoke Have Lower IQs · · Score: 1, Insightful

    The GP may be referring to Smokey and the Bandit where the girl was running away from marriage to the Sheriff's son and has jumped into the Bandits's Pontiac Trans Am with her wedding dress on, and lights up a cigarette.

  11. Re:At least... In Federal Court, on Man Sues Neighbor Claiming Wi-Fi Made Him Sick · · Score: 1

    In our Federal Courthouse here, we have to surrender all cell phones at the door where the scanner is located. They of course prefer you leave such devices in your vehicle instead of bringing them in. (I think it has to do with the photo taking capability of most phones now, although it may have to do with the annoyance of phone calls when court is in session too)

  12. Re:Ok, where are they??? An answer of sorts on Here Come the Linux iPad Clones · · Score: 1

    You say you've waited for years, well, you could wait some more. As you should know, technology gets lower cost as you wait. So eventually you can get your reader at lower cost and be free of DRM then too. You could download the classics from the free pdf format sites (Project Gutenberg is one) and have great value, if you are a little more patient.

  13. Re:Two can play that game... on IBM Stops Disclosing US Headcount Data · · Score: 1

    With what desired result? Further closing of their shops in America? More unemployment for the US? You would really help the union then, not!

  14. or can we run Android on it? :) on Microsoft "Courier" Pictures · · Score: 1

    Subject says it all.

  15. Re:No glasses? Use contact lenses or .... on No Glasses Needed For TI's New 3D Display · · Score: 1

    Use contact lenses or have eye surgery to correct your vision. An easy fix!

  16. Re:How about people think this through? on Microsoft Says Windows 7 Not Killing Batteries · · Score: 1

    No, they would be saying it was Apples fault, remember that Apple makes their hardware as well as software. That would be exactly Apples fault.

  17. Re:I can't wait for the Firefox addon on Open-Source JavaScript Flash Player (HTML5/SVG) · · Score: 1

    "but I don't use Linux at home." But you should! :)

  18. Re:It makes sense really on Wii Hardware Upgrade Won't Happen Soon · · Score: 2, Insightful

    If the son is playing games instead of drinking - Dad is money ahead!

  19. Re:Video = patience Grasshopper (pete-classic) on CES, Reporter Breaks "Unbreakable" Mobile Phone · · Score: 1

    If you are patient enough the story does follow your PBS commercial.

  20. Re:Communioncator = RTFA on Mozilla Starts To Follow a New Drumbeat · · Score: 1

    Simple, when you don't understand the summary, then Read The Fine (linked) Article (RTFA) and it is explained! Commenting when you have not taken time to read, looks bad on you.

  21. Re:Too big for 1 hand, so how do you type on Freescale Unveils Design For $199 Tablet · · Score: 2, Funny

    But if you can replace the battery ... it also proves that it is not from Apple! :)

  22. Re:Whodathunk on Virgin Galactic Unveils SpaceShipTwo · · Score: 1

    That Ford Motor Company became Cadillac after he made them give up his name when he left the company and started the current Ford Motor Company, too. If I remember correctly.

  23. Re:The name says what it does on GIMP Dropped From Ubuntu 10.04 · · Score: 1

    Until now, but I will from now on! :)

  24. Re:*jeez* on GIMP Dropped From Ubuntu 10.04 · · Score: 1

    One link was OMG Ubunto, so no, don't blame Fox for this.

  25. Re:You're playing their game on Become Your Own Heir After Being Frozen · · Score: 1
