  1. Re:why on Elementary OS 0.2 "Luna" Released · · Score: 2

    To go further with this thought... Is it any good regardless of "popular" consensus for an OS X alternative?

  2. Re:Mwhahahaha.... on Iron From Antarctic Rocks Fuels Algae Growth · · Score: 1

    Nice reference to a game I thoroughly have enjoyed (except the endings!).

  3. Re:Need Clarity on Debian GNU/Hurd 2013 Released · · Score: 1

    Thanks to all of you for explaining it. I'll gladly stick with Debian Wheezy then. =)

  4. Need Clarity on Debian GNU/Hurd 2013 Released · · Score: 3, Interesting

    Would anyone mind explaining to me the key differences between Debian Wheezy & Debian GNU/Hurd 2013? What are the benefits of using GNU/Hurd 2013?

  5. Re:Does this guy know what Firefox is? on How Maintainable Is the Firefox Codebase? · · Score: 2

    Maybe he's referring to the Mozilla codebase as a whole rather than just Firefox in itself?

  6. Re:2 kilometers isn't very far away. on Watch a Lockheed Martin Laser Destroy a Missile In Flight · · Score: 3, Insightful

    Since it's a prototype, I'm sure progress will need to be made to extend the range & power of the laser. Otherwise, it'll only be a short-range solution.

  7. A little bit of Matrix for your Slashdot on New Camera Inspired By Insect Eyes · · Score: 1

    This technology definitely has me thinking about the sentinels from the Matrix. http://matrix.wikia.com/wiki/Sentinel

  8. Re:"A high-energy, 'metastable' state"? on Higgs Data Could Spell Trouble For Leading Big Bang Theory · · Score: 2

    Maybe the uni/multiverse had a "reboot" from a prior state?

  9. Re:Custom Firmware? on AMI Firmware Source Code, Private Key Leaked · · Score: 1

    I appreciate the insight. I wasn't sure if the source was a generic AMI base or a more specific firmware/BIOS build for a single motherboard.

  10. Custom Firmware? on AMI Firmware Source Code, Private Key Leaked · · Score: 4, Insightful

    Would it be possible that more ambitious/less sinister programmers and/or modders could create a highly customized firmware or BIOS that allowed for more options? I guess I see a positive outcome to any leaked source code rather than the negative weaponry most people imagine.

  11. Re:biological repair system on Researchers Build 3D Printer That Makes Tissue-Like Material · · Score: 1

    An application for life-like automatons (robots) would be another. The gap of the uncanny valley would close significantly.

  12. Re:Almost competing on Windows 7 Upgrade Can Take Nearly a Day · · Score: 1

    You definitely have brough the truth to light. Nvidia's infamous nvklddm.sys BSoD still rears its ugly head. Windows 7 seems to have gottent past this horrible bug but I'm sure people will still see it regardless of which Windows 6.x version is around.

  13. Re:Q6600 on AMD's Phenom II 965, 3.4GHz, 140 Watts, $245 · · Score: 1

    You can easily hit 3.6GHz on air w/ an FSB of 1800 (mind you, I use an aftermarket cooler - Thermalright Ultra 120 Extreme). It's a great chip to overclock with & I'd recommend it for anyone that wants to build a great PC with a lower budget.

  14. Re:Quality Journalism? on Murdoch Demands Kindle Users' Info · · Score: 1

    Thanks for the laugh. That's a "quality" image for sure.

  15. Re:From Mogwai to Gremlin on BIOS "Rootkit" Preloaded In 60% of New Laptops · · Score: 1

    Thanks. I knew I got something "fuzzy" about it all...

  16. From Mogwai to Gremlin on BIOS "Rootkit" Preloaded In 60% of New Laptops · · Score: 3, Funny

    LoJack swiftly changes to HiJack with a good splash of water

  17. Re:does it matter? on SFLC Says Microsoft Violated the GPL · · Score: 2, Informative

    Hell no, and did we surrender to Germans at Perl Harbor? Hell no! No surrender to M$. That's what I say.

    I greet you, traveler from some unknown alternate universe. Where I come from, Japan attacked Pearl Harbor & the US survived it.

  18. Uh no? on Microsoft Exec Says, "You'll Miss Vista" · · Score: 1

    I'm looking forward to 7 & forever denouncing any future installations of Vista. I do miss 98 SE though. 2K was nice & XP gave better gaming performance but overall 7 is where my preference lies.

  19. There IS good news on Are Windows 7 Testers Going Unheard? · · Score: 4, Informative
  20. Typo Correction on Steve Jobs Issues Update On His Health · · Score: -1, Redundant

    I believe the correct word is "losing" not "loosing".

  21. Fighting for Freedom = Suppression of Voice? on Afghan Student Gets 20 Years For Blasphemy · · Score: 2, Interesting

    Tell me why we're supporting Afghanistan again? How is the current government any better than the Taliban?
