  1. Remembers me Final Fantasy on MIT Secretly Built Mega-Efficient Nano Batteries · · Score: 1

    on Final Fantasy Film (not the grotesque "advent children", the first one), he uses a "bio energy" cell to all devices. Fiction goes real? hehe

  2. Re:The real question: on Lenovo Requires NDA For Windows License Refund · · Score: 1

    I agree, why Lenovo needs a NDA to accept refund user?

  3. Re:Extensions are bad? on IE8 Beta Released To Public · · Score: 1

    On this days of invasive, agressive and malicious ads, ad-block is a "must have" extension.

  4. Where i can buy the technology? on Rover Exiting Crater To Continue Martian Marathon · · Score: 1

    Where i can buy the technology used on Spirit? I will like a device with capacity to work ten times the estimated working life (but will be the terror of companys, off course. A TV don't exploding on one year of use? wooo!)

  5. Possible solutions exists on The Power Grid Can't Handle Wind Farms · · Score: 1

    One maybe is create automatic "plug in/out" for wind generators on main power grid, using as criteria the power load on moment, just like the speed regulator from hydro turbine. Or maybe create a better speed regulator for the wing generator to equalize the wind speed / power output

  6. Interesting device, but... on Space Cube – the World's Smallest Linux PC · · Score: 1

    ... is overpriced as hell

  7. Re:What??? on TELUS Forcing Customers Off Unlimited Plans · · Score: 1

    Yep, and soon will appear one to write here "you need to accept moron, is the law"

  8. Re:I propose a new Game Show on Scientists Discover Cows Point North · · Score: 1

    I agree. I found most of "generic" people is unable even to think critically, they prefer others thinking for then (no warrants if the "guru" is right or wrong)

  9. More, more, MORE! on 30 Years of the Lego Minifig · · Score: 1

    FROM: The Darkmaster
    TO: LEGO(r) Factory

  10. Re:I'm okay with this. on US Court Gives 15 Months' Jail, $415,900 Fine For Game Piracy · · Score: 1

    I agree, is a really bad thing pirating for profit. And not only for games, for films too

  11. Will not work on FSF-Sponsored gNewSense 2.1 Released · · Score: 1

    Because the normal people (not geek/technician/pc enthusiast) want a "just work" system, not a "purist one". He needs a system can play your music, films, do work and etc, and do not like messages "i do not play your film because the codec needed is closed and evil".

    (and PLEASE, do NOT "use Mac" messages here. the idea is get a usable Linux, not go to someone else)

  12. Re:Its easy to kill nigeriam scam: on Jail 'Greedy' Scam Victims, Says Nigerian Diplomat · · Score: 1

    I have another solution and this is a total fix. A thermonuclear total fix :)

    Hahaha, just kidding. But disable the untraceable payment methods helps a lot (the scammer will need a real - and traceable - bank account). Well, in any case, we aways have the thermonuclear option.

  13. Its easy to kill nigeriam scam: on Jail 'Greedy' Scam Victims, Says Nigerian Diplomat · · Score: 1

    Simply disable western union, paypal and wire money transfer to Nigeria, "cut" then off from online or untraceable money transfer.

  14. Re:Fraud is fraud. on Jail 'Greedy' Scam Victims, Says Nigerian Diplomat · · Score: 1

    Exists cops in Nigeria? I do not think so

    ship reactors will support USB 4.0? Damn, Scott is not here anymore to say :(

  16. Re:A small correction on Internet Radio's "Last Stand" · · Score: 1

    if RIAA try to apply US rules on here (Brazil), she will get a big, big punch on face.

  17. Re:Pity they did not print the details on Solar Cells — Made In a Pizza Oven · · Score: 1

    Ahhh... I understood now. The summary lacks 80% of "full" notice. anyone, "bad summary" on this topic, please.

  18. Article misses one thing on Solar Cells — Made In a Pizza Oven · · Score: 1

    HOW she makes a solar cell from pizza oven and inkjet printer? the most basic in science is show how to do to anyone (with time and resources, off course) try too and see if works or not.

    Or maybe is "hard-vaporware" (hardware + vapor)

  19. Re:x86 in the chipset! == a very good idea! on Nvidia Rumored To Be Readying X86 Chip Release · · Score: 1

    Interesting idea... Using a generic CPU as "chipset" will turn the motherboard more flexible with a bigger BIOS (update the BIOS and the motherboard gain new functions).

  20. Re:OMG, language holywars again? on Why Corporates Hate Perl · · Score: 1

    Comments is not enougth for this kind of code (epic background music on)... Needs a lot of "kung-fu", pacience and aspirines to put how the damn code works.

  21. Re:I'm not a rocket scientist on NASA Installing Shocks On Ares · · Score: 1

    I agree. The "graal" of rockets is launch maximum usable payload with minimum "dead weigth" (aka: the rocket itself, because he is disposable). Is a very nonsense idea from NASA enginners. Is a best idea try hard to solve the cause of vibration, not try to "patch" then.

  22. This explains everthing... on Watchmen Delayed, Or Worse · · Score: 4, Informative

    From comment on Deadline Hollywood Daily above:

    4) Waiting - Waiting is a common game in Hollywood. When you see someone doing something you don't like, you usually wait until they are fairly pregnant, because that's where the money is. Had Fox stepped in the second they saw this occur, the movie probably just wouldn't have gotten made by WB, and Fox would be sitting on a property they hadn't developed in decades. BUT... by waiting until WB finished production, now there's money! Now Fox can see some cash because WB is so pregnant that they have to do something to release the movie. It is possible that WB can make an equitable claim of laches (sitting around trying to maximize the damages), but that's in equity, not in law; and that's strictly up to the court.

  23. OMG, language holywars again? on Why Corporates Hate Perl · · Score: 1

    Into simple words: Any code needs to be easy readable by anyone on team (not just the super-duper "the chosen one" coding guru of ). For example, yours maybe hate BASIC, but anyone can understand what a BASIC-written code does.

    P.S: I really hate regular expressions. Works? Yes, but how to explain what a hell one crazy regular expression line does on your code?

  24. Re:Let's end the ruse on Obama's Evolving Stance On NASA · · Score: 1

    You Americans spend too much on more "useless" things that space exploration, like wars...

  25. Crysis now run? on NVIDIA Shows Interactive Ray Tracing On GPUs · · Score: 1

    Maybe will be possible to play Crysis now
