  1. Re:Thank goodness on Has Ron Paul Quit? · · Score: 0

    Don't forget the money they threw away on the Space Race and developing nuclear/biological weapons stockpiles.

  2. Dangerous Game on Charter Accidentally Wipes 14K Email Accounts · · Score: 0

    It seems like it would be bound to happen if the company doesn't backup its client's data automatically.

  3. Re:Interesting development on Encryption Passphrase Protected by the 5th Amendment · · Score: 0

    Or that they are already devoting their resources to breaking something else and don't want to use their resources to break that particular encryption.

  4. Re:Bad name. on Computer Model Points To the Missing Matter · · Score: -1, Redundant

    Reporting news before it actually happened? This is the first time since WTC 7....

  5. 2.5 meter man... on Man Sized Sea Scorpion Fossil Found · · Score: 0

    I think the previous record of 2 meters would have been tall man sized. 2.5 meters is closer to the height of Robert Wadlow (2.73m), the tallest man we have on record.

  6. Depends on what I'm doing. on Do OpenOffice Users Save In Microsoft Format? · · Score: 0

    I will usually use the doc format when sending formatted text files, but never use PPT files for sending slide presentations. The incompatibilities between PPT and PPTX(Office 2k7), and the possibility for loss in formatting between ODP and PPT have caused me to only use ODP when presenting (I use my own laptop) or export the presentation to PDF when sending.

  7. The Gimp Interface on GIMP 2 for Photographers · · Score: 0

    Gimp doesn't have the gray application background that hides whatever is behind it, making it much easier to multi-task and work with different applications.

  8. Safety? on '30 Year Laptop Battery' is Unscientific Myth · · Score: 0

    There have been so many reports of exploding/leaking/igniting laptop batteries that it makes me wonder how dangerous these could be. I sure wouldn't want a battery that leaks radioactive material in my lap.

  9. Re:Y'know.... on MS Awarded "Best Campaigner Against OOXML" · · Score: 2, Funny

    I think they should be given the "Most Improved Award". It's not really an award, it just says you don't suck as much as you used to.

  10. Will it grow back? on Solar Hurricane Rips Off Comet's Tail · · Score: 0

    I wonder if the Coronal Mass Ejection contained enough energy to melt/burn off what was creating the tail (ice or whatnot) or if it removed the tail temporarily. Anyone have any further knowledge on the subject?

  11. If the RIAA sues us... on Radiohead Says Name Your Own Price for New Album · · Score: 3, Funny

    for illegally downloading their music, can we choose how much we can settle for too?

  12. Does... on Radiohead Says Name Your Own Price for New Album · · Score: 0

    free count as a price?

  13. It's hard for me to... on Blender Compared To the Major 3D Applications · · Score: 1

    give much credibility to a writer that uses emotes in his charts.

  14. Virginia Tech on Halo 3 Causing Network Issues · · Score: 0, Offtopic

    We're having the exact same problem. Ever since the release date, the network has been ridiculously slow. Me and my roommate play a lot of Star Wars Jedi Knight: Jedi Academy which requires close to no latency to play well. We haven't been able to play because there is a half+ second delay between us and our opponents. :(

  15. Can it... on Jon Udell on the Nerd's Spreadsheet · · Score: 5, Funny

    Multiply 850*77.1 correctly?

  16. Re:leave it alone!! on Microsoft Should Abandon Vista? · · Score: 1

    How was that made so fast?
