  1. Damn on 3D Printers Create Edible Objects · · Score: 1

    I've been working on this. They beat me to it... :(

  2. Using antimatter... on Physicists Build Bigger 'Bottles' For Antimatter · · Score: 2

    "...make specially tailored beams for a variety of uses."
    Read: blowing stuff up.
    I love science!

  3. Or... on Obama Wants Big Hike In Cybersecurity Research · · Score: 1, Flamebait

    Instead of increasing defense funding, how about we stop making people mad enough to attack us? That way, we can spend our money on more important things.

  4. Nintendo? on Microsoft's Glasses-Free 3D Display · · Score: 1

    Didn't Nintendo already announce this for their next handheld?

  5. Because nobody else will say it... on Beaver Dam Visible From Space · · Score: 1

    Dam those beavers.

  6. What we need... on Extremists Warn South Park Creators Over Muhammad In a Bear Suit · · Score: 1

    ...is for people to understand their own religions!
    Muhammad is NOT holy or to be worshiped. He is not supposed to be depicted for the sole reason that he NOT be holy or worshiped. These extremists are taking this the exact opposite that they should.
    Disclaimer: I am only targeting some Muslims because they are in the spotlight. Some people in all religions are guilty.

  7. As well as better beef on Cows On Treadmills Produce Clean Power For Farms · · Score: 1

    This would also give the cows more muscle, which equals more and better beef. I can see this being feasible sometime, possibly...

  8. I already do that. on Time To Ditch Cable For Internet TV? · · Score: 1

    I only watch two shows anyway, so I just watch them off Hulu on my wide screen monitor. Fewer commercials and I can watch whenever I want :)

  9. What's the big deal? on What Does Google Suggest Suggest About Humanity? · · Score: 1

    I see a few amazing ones, but I don't get what's amazing about "Can you put peroxide in your ear?" I do it all the time. It makes perfect sense. *shrug* of course, calling people stupid has never made sense to me. The adage "There's no such thing as a stupid question" applies here very nicely...

  10. Not news to me, either (unfortunately) on Why a High IQ Doesn't Mean You're Smart · · Score: 1

    I scored 130-140 on my IQ tests (depending on the test, I took two or three through my life -_- stupid schools) and I know for a fact my brain is slower than average. I just retain knowledge above average. So by most definitions, I'm dumb and smart at the same time!

  11. Cycles on "2012" a Miscalculation; Actual Calendar Ends 2220 · · Score: 1

    Not ends, CYCLES. Get the headline right, please.

  12. Re:Wait, TS? on Next Nintendo Handheld To Be Powered By NVIDIA's Tegra Chipset · · Score: 1

    Actually, I thought about it. It probably stands for "Touch Screen"

  13. Wait, TS? on Next Nintendo Handheld To Be Powered By NVIDIA's Tegra Chipset · · Score: 1

    If DS supposedly stood for "Double Screen" does TS stand for "TRIPLE Screen"? That's a scary thought...

  14. Hmmm on Firefox To Replace Menus With Office Ribbon · · Score: 1

    My first thought was an epicly-long "NOOOO..." but upon seeing the pic, idk. It may work. I hated Window's ribbon, but FF may make it work. We'll have to just wait and see, won't we?

  15. Facebook Status: on Burglar Logs Into Facebook On Victim's Computer · · Score: 4, Funny

    JOHN PARKER is robbing a house :)
    updated 2:57 PM today

  16. Yay, stereotypes! on The Mindset of the Incoming College Freshmen · · Score: 1

    And I thought the big movement right now was to stamp out profiling... how naive I was...

  17. Just new old news... on Fewer Than 10 ET Civilizations In Our Galaxy? · · Score: 1

    People have been talking about and "calculating" these chances for decades at least, and the answers have consistently been bouncing back and forth between "thousands" and "one" civilization. Every single article on the subject has the same bottom line: we don't know.

  18. Does this mean...? on Tron Legacy Exposed · · Score: 1

    In the style of "turn every movie into a game before it even comes out" we should get a shiny new Tron game (joysticks anyone? :-D) by this Christmas!
    Sarcasm aside, a new Tron game would be wicked. *goes to play the old Tron again*

  19. Re:I always buy boxed games on How Much Longer Will Physical Game Distribution Survive? · · Score: 1

    I agree. The tangible object just seems more... permanent especially for computers (which, if they crash, will take all those downloaded games with them). Besides, I just like the feel of putting in the CD when I play a game. Don't ask why. I just do.

  20. A normal politician, huh? on $2 Billion For Broadband Cut From Stimulus Bill · · Score: 1

    He promised more than he gave. No surprise there- just like every politician through history.

  21. Re:They work well too on WISPS Mean Cable and DSL Aren't the Only Choices · · Score: 1

    The one I have is around $10 or so. I know it varies a LOT though.

  22. They work well too on WISPS Mean Cable and DSL Aren't the Only Choices · · Score: 4, Interesting

    I'm on a WISP and it's great. I'm in a rural area, so it was either that or satellite, and, as previously stated, satellite is not good for online gaming. With WISP though, I still have latencies in the 100 range. It's nice. /babbling

  23. Congrats on Iran Has Put a Satellite Into Orbit · · Score: 1

    Welcome to the club, Iran!

  24. Vigilantes detained on Goat Detained In Armed Robbery · · Score: 1

    on suspicion of drug possession.

  25. Unless I missunderstand the scale... on Quantum Camera On a Silicon Chip · · Score: 1

    Doesn't this run into the small problem of:
    "observing a quantum event changes that event"?
