    Remind me to never to go camping with you.

  2. Re:Typical Roman cuisine on Ancient Pompeii Diet Consisted of Giraffe and Other "Exotic'" Delicacies · · Score: 5, Funny

    That's pretty much the extent of mentions of giraffes in Roman Italy.

    It is said that "Hamburgers" were a staple of 20th century life. However surviving records of that time offer scant evidence. Tarantino the Younger mentions "one tasty [ham]burger" in only one surviving scene in his Magnum Opus a Tale of Pulp In fact a different document the Quest for the White Castle shows to what lengths the heroes Harold and Kumar have to go to get their hands on one of these so called "hamburgers"

    Let's face it, hamburgers were a rare delicacy reserved for the rich and powerful of the time as this fresco clearly shows.

    Use VNC to connect from your PC at home to your machine at work. From your work PC use Remote Desktop to take control of your GMs computer and use then Teamviewer to connect to the customer. Easy!

    Give him a break. Getting special attention at every border crossing and hanging out with Crazy Julian would make anyone a bit loopy and given to hyperbole.

    Yeah right! Next you'll be telling us that they didn't have wizards and dragons.

    I cannot and do not care about the citizens of other countries.

    That's in one sentence the problem the rest of the world has with the US. By and large you only think of your own selfish needs and screw anyone else. A large majority of the US population doesn't even feel the need to explore what's outside their own little bubble and will live and die without ever crossing a border unless ordered by a general. Believe it or not but the rest of the world thinks that is a scary situation.

  12. Re:radiation and cancer on Parents' Campaign Leads To Wi-Fi Ban In New Zealand School · · Score: 2

    A red light photon carries about 16000 times the energy a photon from E.M. radiation @ 2.4 GHz carries. That difference is comparable to the difference between red light and hard X rays. Light from the indicator LEDs on the router has more chance of hurting you than the waves from the antenna.

    Tablets are an awful replacement for books in schools. When you throw them at a distracted student the screen might break.

  14. Re:Amateur literacy on Citizen Science: Who Makes the Rules? · · Score: 2

    Small correction. The editors on this site are paid employees. This was done by a professional illiterate.

    I've heard of "scientists" taking samples of psychoactive cactus to be analysed via the bioassay method. It's a lot like Japanese whale studies.

    You mean after choosing to download a malicious application, choosing to install it, and choosing the grant it permission, Windows allows me to use software that DOES things to my computer that I may consider detrimental?

    Yeah but for some sites you really need to have Adobe Flash installed.

    It's an example of the real reason. Most people can't even write their own name properly. That makes them too dumb to do real science.

    Six seasons of brilliance followed by a hiatus and a lame reboot that never should have been is a decent run for any series.

    Have you ever entertained the notion that paranoid freaks like you create a society that promotes violent incidents?

  22. Re:No comments? on Hearing Shows How 'Military-Style' Raid On Calif. Power Station Spooks U.S. · · Score: 2

    Has the number of lives saved by the chaos been taken into consideration in those calculations? Less people going to work or school will decrease the number of traffic accidents for instance. On a population of 50 million that has to be more than 11 lives saved.

  23. Re:first shot on Hearing Shows How 'Military-Style' Raid On Calif. Power Station Spooks U.S. · · Score: 4, Insightful

    Not even full on military lockdown can prevent a commando style raid. The raid on the Telemark heavy water plant during WWII proved that. So unless you want a regime even more ruthless than a Nazi occupation force to protect your infrastructure maybe you should work on changing your nations behaviour to reduce the incentive for such raids.
