  1. sounds like user error on Reliable, Free Anti-Virus Software? · · Score: 1

    hmm, sounds like a possible human error in removing the crapware form Mcafee, and then after not fully uninstalling that piece of bloatware, you installed AVG and it tried to work with the leftovers from Mcafee still interfering. I have AVG and the router is a good 100 feet away, maybe more and I have no troubles with my wifi connection.

  2. Re:Upgrade on Hubble Repairs Hindered By Antiquated Computer Systems · · Score: 1

    your thermostat does not do 1 billionth of the work and data that the Hubble does in a hour. The Hubble is a important tool for allowing the portion of humanity that cares about this small blue planet to better understand the universe we all reside in.

  3. WTF.. on Taser International Wins Lawsuit to Change Cause of Death · · Score: 1

    since when does a judge have a medical degree? I guess that means people that have no training or expertise in the area can know more than the poeple that do. I also think Taser's are lethal weapons, plain and simple, I'd like to see the CEO take a full charge from one, without him knowing it's going to happen, when he is laying there dead as a doornail, then I bet the judge and others will change their story.

  4. the reason.. on Massive Increase in RIAA Copyright Notices · · Score: 1

    is because they are losing the legal end of the war they started and are trying anything to not lose the rich lifestyle they have, at the expense of consumers and musicians.

  5. well... on Bill Allows Teachers to Contradict Evolution · · Score: 1

    at least when I went to school in Florida, they actually taught science and not personal beliefs. I guess this is what the rest of the world can look forward to now that a Bush is leaving office, if his idiot brother can screw up a state that badly, imagine how badly he'll screw up the world. wait, he's already done that.

  6. At The End on Possibility of Life On Mars Looking More Remote · · Score: 2, Insightful

    the water may have been salty there, but does not mean it could not support life at some point. I cite the Salton Sea as an example, it once held life till it became unable to support it in the end. I also cite the Aral Sea, used to support a large amount of life and now it's a desert. Just because it finds evidence within it's limited capabilities, does not mean that that's how everything was all the time.

  7. right... on Biofuels Make Greenhouse Gases Worse · · Score: 1

    I guess they forgot to consider the costs of continuing to rely on oil, and the costs of producing shipping, refining, transporting to gas stations, those are way worse than grow a plant. we have to pollute to just to get to the oil, and the destruction that's already happened, Prudoe Bay is still cleaning up form the Valdez spill, and other places are still dealing with oil spills that happened 10-50 years ago.

  8. Excuse me? on Volcanoes May Have Caused Mass Extinctions? · · Score: 1

    how could a volcano produce the K-T Boundary layer, when the main component is from meteors.
