  1. Re:Hicks on HIV/AIDS Vaccine To Begin Phase I Human Trials · · Score: 1

    but that will probably cause a new aids.

  2. Re:Who is nuts enough to test effectiveness? on HIV/AIDS Vaccine To Begin Phase I Human Trials · · Score: 1

    your already dead. how much deader can u get?

  3. Re:Hicks on HIV/AIDS Vaccine To Begin Phase I Human Trials · · Score: 1

    for at least a week!

  4. the more programming on What Are the Best First Steps For Becoming a Game Designer? · · Score: 1

    the more programming knowledge u have the more jobs you can get when it comes down to programming. never learn 1 single programming language and never only write code for a single architecture. the gaming industry requires flexibility, some people have tons of degrees and never cut it in a work environment and some have none and thrive. it all depends on how well you can work with others and how well you can share your knowledge and take criticism from non-programmers. it's a tough business to get into, allot of developers today come from linux and server programming community and have worked for nothing for years!

  5. the reason on Ranchers Have Beef With USDA Program To ID Cattle · · Score: 1

    the reason why europe and everyone else banned US beef is because it can't be traced... and it's filled with hormones and steroids which are both banned in europe..

  6. dead people or money? on China Bans Gold Farming · · Score: 1

    people get killed in china over these things, it's time to shut these bunch of bandits down.

  7. all i need now on Opera Unite Web Server Benchmarked · · Score: 1

    all i need now is a dumb server: by that i mean a os that only has 1 single task (webhost). and be truly modular, i don't want several hundred background tasks running all over the place. without rewriting linux/bsd/etc your pretty much screwed, in achieving a clean "security hole free" webserver.

  8. a sucker is born every minute on FDA Says Homeopathic Cure Can Cause Loss of Smell · · Score: 1

    still holds true, as long as people are willing to insert as much of pointless water magic cures there will be a business based around it. it's all hoax and no fact, and thus people buy it because it holds no fact (magic). it's like all those miracle diets, u don't have to diet if you just have a head with a brain on top of your neck...

  9. Re:Cite please on Better Tools For Disabled Geeks? · · Score: 1

    here i thought Omnipotent beings weren't allowed to participate in society?

  10. the big labels on Game, DVD Sales Hurting Music Industry More Than Downloads · · Score: 1

    big labes have caused it themselves by not selling their music drm free via bittorent and other option. let people decide what they pay, and the net profit will increase to a higher amount than it currently is. eventually people feel guilt, some people respond to it most of them don't but generally the net+ will be higher than nothing.. big labels are just that (too big and fat, and not adjustable for change).

  11. dead simple on World Copyright Summit and the Lies of the Copyright Industry · · Score: 2, Interesting

    allow people to choose if they pay, you will see that 50% of the people will pay something. eventually people feel guilty, but you can't force people to pay whatever you want for music/movies/games.

  12. in the end on Why Natal Is a Big Deal · · Score: 1

    in the end people don't care how something works.

  13. this is poverty of health. on Teen Diagnoses Her Own Disease In Science Class · · Score: 1, Interesting

    this is what u get without basic health care, it's not something to marvel at it's something to cry about. it's sad that people can't just goto a doctor at a young age and just get better.

  14. i wished i could on Could Betelgeuse Go Boom? · · Score: 1

    i wished i could see our sun go supernova :( i mean once we are all gone, and we could say a final goodbye to this place. when that day comes when i am long gone into dust, but that day i would be truly happy :P as my molecules will always live on, i hope my molecules enjoy the ride :D (what an absurd thing to say, but we are immortal trough our mortality).

  15. Re:funny on WHO Declares H1N1's Spread Officially a Pandemic · · Score: 1

    not where i live. it only hit my country just (all i can say, i live under sea level..)

  16. funny on WHO Declares H1N1's Spread Officially a Pandemic · · Score: 1

    after it hit europe it's a pandemic. india/china aren't pandemic worthy?

  17. Re:sales of the wii on Does the Wii Provide A "Watered-Down" Game Experience? · · Score: 1

    and even the PSP has sold 50million... just goes to show what a small number 50million is. the wii is a successful failure, get over it.

  18. Re:sales of the wii on Does the Wii Provide A "Watered-Down" Game Experience? · · Score: 1

    and yet it's not a next-gen console. and yet the PS2 is still outselling it.

  19. Re:sales of the wii on Does the Wii Provide A "Watered-Down" Game Experience? · · Score: 1

    the ps2 has sold 100million units, the wii 50million.

  20. sales of the wii on Does the Wii Provide A "Watered-Down" Game Experience? · · Score: 1

    sales of the wii has gone from 1million a month to 80,000 a month. that's worse than the dreamcast slump. they end up in a closest unused.

  21. meh on Pixar's Next Three Films Will Be Sequels · · Score: -1, Redundant

    meh, sequels. i hope they better do a better job than disney used to do with their crappy straight-2-dvd! i don't want to see straight-2-dvd ever again!

  22. Re:ebay unite! on Publishers Want a Slice of Used Game Market · · Score: 1

    i've been looking around and they aren't sold anywhere. Microsoft is pulling a prank on us. acting as if the game is selling better than it is, to keep the prices too high.

  23. ebay unite! on Publishers Want a Slice of Used Game Market · · Score: 1

    screw them let us unite against game publishers by selling it at a price whatever we want. i am willing to trade my resident evil 5 with anyone who has Fable2.

  24. simply not going to happen. on Music Streaming to Overtake Downloads · · Score: 1

    simply not going to happen. like subscriptions scams (ala Microsoft) people want to own their music they don't want to lend it. also in Europe the entire renting market has collapsed, and it isn't going to be re-created in a fair competitive market (meaning markets where renting models work, the market is unfair and uncompetitive)

  25. Re:news on Newspaper Execs Hold Secret Meeting To Discuss Paywalls · · Score: 1

    you don't need Internet. old papers getting paid directly by users will die, if you want it or not. there is no future for old world papers. sucks to be them old chumps.
