  1. Oh No on Apple Puts $383 Million Handcuffs On CEO Tim Cook · · Score: 0

    Oh No! He actually has to care about the company! He can't just take the money and run away. This sure is horrible.

  2. What? on Why Johnny Can't Code and How That Can Change · · Score: 1

    Why teach people which don't want to learn?
    Those which want to learn definitely can, it is not about the reward but about the activity itself which should create joy.
    That is the problem with schools.

  3. And so on Hackers Attack Nintendo, But Company Claims Data Safe · · Score: 1

    And so it begins...

  4. Re:Still think Wikileaks knows what they're doing? on Leaked Doc May Have Forced US To Speed Up Bin Laden Raid · · Score: 1

    Why he's correct you know, legality is defined by the government and international laws are very vague at times and far from accepted by everyone.

  5. This is why on Why Science Is a Lousy Career Choice · · Score: 1

    This is why Glados was invented, to force science to be done.

  6. Re:GITMO still open? on WikiLeaks Releases Guantanamo Prisoner Files · · Score: 2

    That's right people, if it's not a US citizen we don't have to treat them as humans.

  7. Re:Local News on 8.8 Earthquake Near Japanese Coast · · Score: 5, Informative

    Financial markets went down, Prime Minister already reacted and sent out military and more If you're in Japan: remain calm, move away from coast, keep (clean) water in bathtub & food, DON'T CALL TOKYO

  8. Local News on 8.8 Earthquake Near Japanese Coast · · Score: 5, Informative

    Sitting in Japan, translating from the news here~

    largest earthquake since 300 years
    nuclear power plants affected but nothing leaked
    some factory at the coast started burning, they're showing it over and over again
    8 people so far found dead
    tsunami along almost the entire coast, 3meter to 10meters

    It's very bad,

    They're also warning of another earthquake which is predicted to happen shortly

  9. Maybe now on HTC Invests $40 Million In OnLive · · Score: 1

    I can run emacs with syntax highlight *ducks*

  10. Awesome on China Building City For Cloud Computing · · Score: 3, Funny

    And in two years it will be just as obsolete as square feet.

  11. Yes on Auditors Question TSA's Tech Spending, Security Solutions · · Score: 1

    Oh yes, 14 billion, now lets look at ~ Can't bring up war, NO REFUSE! Agh no carrier?

  12. Re:I love the caps lock key on Google Wants To Take Away Your Capslock Key · · Score: 1

    And here I thought it was an Esc key.... / hysteria follows

  13. Parody? Satire? Ironyyyyyyy on BEAR Robot Designed To Rescue Wounded Soldiers · · Score: 3, Insightful

    This is the funniest thing I've read today. So you want to send human soldiers into harms way but you then want to develop technology which can do a humans work to retrieve them without causing any further harm to your soldiers? Really?! War....

  14. Quake 3 on Have I Lost My Gaming Mojo? · · Score: 1

    Quake Live or Quake DeFRaG

  15. Re:Maybe they're misinterpreting the results on Hard-to-Read Fonts Improve Learning · · Score: 2, Insightful

    Theres also a difference of the persons willingness to learn. A person will only try to learn deeper material, ex. Knuth, if they want to, in which case they will. If the person is however forced to learn the US Consitution amendments by memory, theres a small chance that they will. Unless theyre a lawyer of course, in which case its a totally acceptable thing to do. Of Course.

  16. Ubuntu on 10/10/10 — a Nice Day To Celebrate the Meaning of Life · · Score: 1

    You know...

  17. Re:Videogames? on Creative Commons Video Challenges Hollywood's Best · · Score: 1

    Yes but you're missing the point. Those cut-scenes where created by proprietary software with a company backing it up with their money. And they weren't as awesome as this movie.

  18. Looks like on Paleontologists Unearth Giant Fossilized Penguin · · Score: 5, Funny

    Looks like we horribly miss-calculated the year of the penguin!

  19. Re:The problem with the Swiss ... on Swiss Canton Abandons Linux Migration · · Score: 1

    Oh Yeah! We also speak french so you better not start a flame war.

  20. Re:Great on Hurt Locker File-Sharing Subpoenas Begin · · Score: 1

    Sorry bout that one =p But seriously, I respect you for that, not many people would fight for a TOR node.

  21. Need more... on 'Exploding Lake' Provides Electricity For Rwanda · · Score: 1

    Need more Vespene Gas.

  22. Re:All this on Quake Live Beta Ends, Optional Subscription Plans Added · · Score: 1

    Yes but you're basically paying for the common servers and the community that comes with them.
    With a pro membership you can even ask for your own game to be set up on their servers.

  24. Re:Stupid question on 1000 Genomes Project Releases Pilot Genome Data · · Score: 1

    YES, apparently if you read the sequence.index file, you know, this one: ftp://ftp-trace.ncbi.nih.gov/1000genomes/ftp/sequence.index The second tab is an MD5 check-sum, so don't go about freaking out =)
