  1. Re:Vista? on AMD Phenom II Overclocked To 6.5GHz · · Score: 1

    Obviously, we've got some mod who is running Vista on his machine here...

  2. Re:How soon until... on "Nuclear Archaeology" Inspires Replica of Hiroshima's Little Boy · · Score: 1

    Depends on how well the nuke is built. If it would be leaking radiation, it would be dangerous even though it just stood still in it's place for all the time.

    It's also a law in Germany, I think...oh, and of course: Âinsert lame joke about all of us being really, really lucky that Germany didn't have any nukes during WW2.

  4. Well... on Valve Takes Optimistic View of Piracy · · Score: 1

    I've never thought that "optimistic" could actually be equal with "realistic". Usually, I always thought it was the opposite of it...well, until I've read this story.

    Just because you are unable to understand it doesn't mean it doesn't make any sense.

    Well...once, I thought like that as well. But after some time, I forgot drinking my coffee and...uh, what was I about to say again?

    I guess even humans can be affected by the Y2k-problem, hehe :) .

  9. Re:. . . and in English, she told ISPs . . . on Germany Legislates For Mandatory Web Filters · · Score: 1

    Actually, I really, really hope they'll add bild.de to the list. They are actually among these that support government censorship (and also think that video games train kids how to use guns and are the root of all evil)...hey, I'm saying this just in jest, as much as I hate the Bild, censoring it would be bad. Yes, they should be brought to justice, but censorship is the wrong way.

    Creepy indeed, especially if you have played Bioshock.

    Well, but it still allows lesbian sex, so geeks can still dream about space porn, right?

    That would probably be more interesting if it isn't a piece of news that has been posted almost 8 years ago...though well, anyways, let's use the opportunity and speak some truth: the Co$ sucks.

    Uh...wait. I think the mod system files are corrupted - isn't guiding people away from Windows usually modded Insightful? Maybe one of the mod bots was unable to distinguish between Win XP/Vista/7 and OSX. Cruel thought...

  16. Re:Easy? on Researchers One Step Closer To Creating Life · · Score: 1

    Well...it's a scientist chick. I guess female geeks aren't affected by the general inability of geeks to get laid - it's not like there'd be a shortage of male geeks, is it?

  18. Re:Prosecute the parents on 6-Year-Old Says Grand Theft Auto Taught Him To Drive · · Score: 1

    Tell someone with asthma (or any other serious health condition or maybe even just fragile stature) just to learn some martial arts to defend themselves. Not everybody can just work out a bit and be able to fend off a whole gang of criminals (yeah, many criminals work in packs here). This is a point most gun control advocates seem to fail to understand - sure, if it's hard to get a gun, criminals will find it hard to get a gun, but so will law-abiding citizens (actually, they may find it even harder, as criminals could just steal a gun somewhere).

  19. Re:Prosecute the parents on 6-Year-Old Says Grand Theft Auto Taught Him To Drive · · Score: 3, Informative

    Of course they are dangerous - but pretty much everything can be said to be dangerous, and if it isn't guns, then it is cars, and if isn't cars or guns, then it is pollution, or whatever. People will always find something to go mad about - besides, you know...guns don't kill people, people kill people. And, coming from a nation with very tight gun control laws - well, here, the people possessing guns are mainly either employed by the police (which is underfunded and -trained and thus doesnt't exactly do a good job as protecting the citizens) and wannabe criminals carry knifes and iron knuckles, and well - to me, it doesn't make much of a difference if I get stabbed or beaten to death, but I'd wish I'd at least have a chance to defend myself and finally can cross the street in certain parts of this land without having to fear some rabid criminals.

  20. Re:Let's rephrase : scientists say, kill manned sp on Why Does the US Have a Civil Space Program? · · Score: 1

    I however do. If the US would start militarizing space, it would probably be the begin of a new space race (as other countries would not want to have their rather non-liked concurrents to gain even more tactical superiority) - and technology would greatly benefit from something like that.

    So you don't believe in UFOs because you haven't seen any evidence of them? Why doesn't this apply to your belief of your deity as well?
