  1. Re:SHeriff Michael Gayer on America 'Has Become a War Zone' · · Score: 1

    Less Americans have died in war zones in the last ten years than have been killed on the streets.

  2. Re:This decision comes as... on Theater Chain Bans Google Glass · · Score: 1

    Do you work for the MPAA? If not you should consider applying because that sounds a lot like their level of stupid... The video quality is awful the sound quality is awful. No-one in their right minds would attempt to record a film like this.

  3. Re:pishaw on The Ethics Cloud Over Ballmer's $2 Billion B-Ball Buy · · Score: 4, Insightful

    The either/or is a huge false dichotomy. Maybe you should consider what 100% "living for yourself" would actually entail?

  4. Re:UV on Plastic Trash Forming Into "Plastiglomerate" Rocks · · Score: 2, Funny

    I don't get it, metal rusts I've seen it on my car all the time, how can there be metal in rocks? You can't explain that.

    There's a difference between a tool and a weapon.

    Try using your printer to print some money

  8. Re:Behind the curve on Seattle Approves $15 Per Hour Minimum Wage · · Score: 1

    What sort of tosser proposes paying people nothing?

  9. Re:Who gives a shit? on HR Chief: Google Sexual, Racial Diversity "Not Where We Want to Be" · · Score: 1

    So you're saying black people and women aren't as good workers? Have you stopped beating your slave yet?

  10. Re:People are really waiting for Steam machines? on Valve's Steam Machines Delayed, Won't Be Coming In 2014 · · Score: 1

    Alienware are hardly representative of PC manufacturers though, if they could squeeze a single extra penny out of the pople buying their hardware they would already be doing it.

  11. Re: Well... on Mutant Registration vs. Vaccine Registration · · Score: 1

    I trust them to treat a critical situation when they're the best available option at that time, using tried and true methods. I don't trust them to inject drugs containing heavy metals and viruses into the whole population for x dollars a pop.

    The polio vaccine is estimated to save 9 million lives annually, and that's just one (admittedly one of the most succesfull), the best available option and tried and true.

    Your rant sounds slightly mad. Are you suggesting we all revert to walking everywhere to reduce the spread of disease rather than using vaccines? Or maybe we all live our lives with a 10 mile radius of our place of birth?

  12. Re:Wait on Study: Stop Being So Cynical, You Could Give Yourself Dementia · · Score: 1

    So you are saying that because most oil isn't used to make mains power another source of abundant energy won't affect our use of oil? I think you be the one that isn't thinking critically.

  13. Re:There's a relationship... on Study: Stop Being So Cynical, You Could Give Yourself Dementia · · Score: 1

    Oh yeah, you're totally right. How do you feel now, cynical or gullible?

  14. Re:Don't bet on it. on In First American TV Interview, Snowden Talks Accountability and Patriotism · · Score: 1

    How quickly do you think that attitude would dissipate if they actually had to do anything other than wander around acting tough?

  15. Re:Snow on Google Unveils Self-Driving Car With No Steering Wheel · · Score: 1

    Most modern cars have sensors on everything drivers are supposed to check before they set off because, surprise surprise, people don't do these checks. The computer will probably actually pay attention to the warning light that says front right tyre is completely flat. I've seen two people recently driving on totally flat tyres, what kind of idiot does that?

  16. Re: No steering wheel? No deal. on Google Unveils Self-Driving Car With No Steering Wheel · · Score: 1

    I'm not sure it's any more effiicient to go slower down hills, in fact it is probably more efficient to go faster to collect that potential energy while supplying no fuel to the engine then go back down to cruising speed when it levels out.

  17. Re:Real-world conditions on Official MPG Figures Unrealistic, Says UK Auto Magazine · · Score: 1

    So only that 1% would be willing, coincidentally the same 1% that do anyway. I think you may be suffering from a common condition known as "ideological blindness".

  18. Re:Got it, lesson learned on Organic Cat Litter May Have Caused Nuclear Waste Accident · · Score: 1

    you're confused, kitty litter is less than 0.000001% of what goes into any landfill. Also, landfills are filled past ground level

    According to wikipedia http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/L... about 2 million tons of litter goes to landfill every year, so annual landfill in the USA must be about 2e^14 tons. I think your estimate may be out.

  19. Re:Real-world conditions on Official MPG Figures Unrealistic, Says UK Auto Magazine · · Score: 1

    How about all the people who already have more than money than they could ever need but still go to work every day because they want something to do?

    Re: Roman Corn Dole. It has been tried before

    That's why people will never fly either, Icarus already tried it and it didn't work.

    Have you looked at the caste of their latest president?

  22. Re:I dont understand on Botched Executions Put Lethal Injections Under New Scrutiny · · Score: 1

    As with so many things, "supporting the application of" and "willing to participate in" are very different propositions.

  23. Re:Why make a journalist suffer? on Four Weeks Without Soap Or Shampoo · · Score: 1

    I don't know, my jeans usually end the day covered in glue, solder, grease, paint, oil, food etc. Something tells me that this would not work for me.
