  1. Re:I have to deal with this all the time.... on The Right's War On Net Neutrality · · Score: 0

    Obviously neither side cares about a deficit as long as the things they want are getting through. The right didn't want the healthcare bill passed so they complained about how we couldn't afford it. The left didn't care that we couldn't afford it as long as they got what they wanted by passing the healthcare bill. The right wanted tax cuts all across the board, not just for middle and lower class even if we can't afford it. The left didn't want tax cuts and complained about how we couldn't afford it. Before you get all high and mighty you should realize that both sides play this game.

  2. So what you're telling me is.... on Satellite-Based Laser Hunts Woodpeckers From Space · · Score: 1, Funny

    We've figured out how to attach lasers to satellites but still can't attach them to sharks?

  3. I heard Kevin Costner was going to be mayor... on Engineers Propose Lily Pad-Like Floating Cities · · Score: 1

    of one of these floating cities. Dry land is not a myth!

  4. For the love of god, on Why the World Is Running Out of Helium · · Score: 1

    somebody please think of the children!!!

  5. Re:How about that... on Obama Wants Allies To Go After WikiLeaks · · Score: 1

    Actually during the early part of the Iraq war the US military dropped fliers in many languages letting people know what was about to go down. I wouldn't be surprised if they restricted certain parts of the city due to violence in those areas. I have a few friends that actually served in Iraq in the early years and are ready to go back because they believe they are helping these people. They tell me about the many Iraqi's that appreciate the US being there and the people that come out on the street to wave at the convoys and cheer for them. Determining an enemy from a civilian is difficult because I've heard the more terrifying stories about kids less than 10 years old shooting AK-47's at US convoys. The US tries as hard as they can to avoid civilian casualties.

  6. Re:Typical bully tactic on Obama Wants Allies To Go After WikiLeaks · · Score: 1

    Just because the US has taken on an authoritative role in getting rid of people that hate human rights and want to kill people does not mean the US is a bully. The US is more like the big brother that beats up on the bullies.

  7. Record the people recording the police on Police Officers Seek Right Not To Be Recorded · · Score: 1

    I want to be the person that records the people recording the police officers, that way everyone can be certain the people recording the police haven't edited the video or left out them provoking law enforcement.

  8. Photoshopped!? on Deposit Checks To Your Bank By Taking a Photo · · Score: 1

    Great, now banks are going to spend more money analyzing the checks to make sure they're not photoshopped.

  9. Accurately according to who? on How Do You Accurately Estimate Programming Time? · · Score: 1

    Most of the time I'll guess until the business I am developing the software for agrees with my estimate. Seems if they don't like my estimate the first week, they ask for a new estimate the week after or even a day later to try and get a lower number.

  10. Re:Would any country ever give up ALL their nukes? on US, Russia Reach Nuclear Arsenal Agreement · · Score: 1

    Its a great fairy tale that nukes wouldn't exist one day, but not everyone will disarm. Many extremist groups will continue to work to get nukes and I'd rather have a couple to launch back than be the person crying and begging them not to launch it at me.

  11. Re:Jared is going to be pissed.... on Pulsar Signals Could Provide Galactic GPS · · Score: 1

    This was suppose to be for another story...... *sigh*

  12. Jared is going to be pissed.... on Pulsar Signals Could Provide Galactic GPS · · Score: 1

    How will he lose weight if he can't eat his sub from subway because someone made it invisible!?

  13. Re:Ban them altogether on WV Voters Say Machines Are Switching Votes · · Score: 1

    Everyone is out to get us, even the machines now!! We're doomed! *Goes to put on aluminum foil hat*

  14. We wouldn't be in this mess... on Geoengineering To Cool the Earth Becoming Thinkable · · Score: 1

    if Al Gore had been working on ways to reverse global warming instead of inventing the internet.

  15. Re:An interesting study. on Researchers Claim To Be Able To Determine Political Leaning By How Messy You Are · · Score: 1

    There's also a difference from working hard and making a good living and GIVING money to charitable organizations to help people and having it TAKEN from you by the government to give to people who believe they deserve it more than you.

  16. Wait a second... on Internet Co-inventor Vint Cerf Endorses Obama · · Score: 1

    Now you're telling me that Al Gore and Vint Cerf invented the internet!?
