  1. Re:Why reduce the DPI instead of using larger font on Are There Affordable Low-DPI Large-Screen LCD Monitors? · · Score: 1

    Interesting how EyeMagazine.com talk about eye strain yet their text is smaller than the comments on /.

  2. Re:Free on Free Software For All Russian Schools In Jeopardy · · Score: 0

    The Soviet Union collapsed in 1991. If by chance we were living in 1991, then free would cost money. However as we're in 2009, your statement is invalid.

  3. Re:In Post-Soviet Russia... on 10% of US Energy Derived From Old Soviet Nukes · · Score: 2, Insightful

    or import it from us Aussies.

  4. Re:How Much Damage? on Unknown 7m Asteroid Almost Impacted Earth · · Score: 1

    67kg, but is increasing as they added a McDonalds to the local shopping centre. Sorry it's not in any other metrics, we Aussies only use kilos.

  5. Re:I'd never do it, but on Moving Away From the IT Field? · · Score: 1

    That guy would be Lester Burnham (Kevin Spacey)

  6. Re:Do not want. on Android Phone Turned Into Virtual Reality Goggles · · Score: 1

    That's why contingencies such as an on-screen radar with human sensoring will be implemented. Though that's just one idea...

  7. Slowly on IBM's Answer To Windows 7 Is Ubuntu Linux · · Score: 1

    Change takes time, especially when companies have been used to various programs such as Microsoft Word, Powerpoint, Excel and Outlook. As SparafucileMan noted, it can take months before people are 'adjusted' to Linux systems. If you're wanting your workplace to operate under a *nix environment, bring it in slowly and teach people as you go, don't push it hard and fast.

  8. Stop whining on Xbox 360 Update Will Lock Out Unauthorized Storage · · Score: 1

    Stick with a PC. They're versatile: Upgradeable AND modifiable!

  9. Re:Anti-fingerprinting technology on 3D Fingerprinting — Touchless, More Accurate, and Faster · · Score: 1

    Who needs fingers anyway

  10. What's safety? on Washington Post Says Use Linux To Avoid Bank Fraud · · Score: 1

    Nothing is safe, even with Linux. The banks however can do much more to prevent attacks by improving their processes, not to mention educating the common user.

  11. Pen to Paper on Cursive Writing Is a Fading Skill — Does It Matter? · · Score: 1, Interesting

    With such a technology dependent world, it's sometimes nice to write on paper and not on a keyboard.

  12. Data warranty on Kingston Unveils $1000 USB Flash Drive · · Score: 0

    "The DataTraveler 300 claims data transfer speeds of up to 20MB/sec, and comes with a five-year guarantee."

    With 256GB capacity, I'd want a 5-year guarantee on my data too.

  13. wait.... on Doctors Will Test Gene Editing On HIV Patients · · Score: 0, Troll

    Wait! Let me grab my gardening scissors to cut that gene out, oh.. we actually need proper medical equipment? I thought we're talking about HIV here.
