  1. Re:What a wonderful unit! on California Looks To the Sea For a Drink of Water · · Score: 1

    But more importantly, how many libraries of congress is that?

  2. Re:What kind of person did they study? on MRIs Show Our Brains Shutting Down When We See Security Prompts · · Score: 1

    Somebody mod parent insightful... I fully agree

  3. Re:From a simpler era on South Korea Begins To Deprecate ActiveX · · Score: 1

    Almost as awesome as the blink tag :p

  4. Mc Kay is at it again on Strange Stars Pulse To the Golden Mean · · Score: 1

    trying to make a new ZPM module

  5. Re:I propose a law on Strange Stars Pulse To the Golden Mean · · Score: 1

    How do you know it is advertising itself to the unknown? They have mapped more of the universe we are aware of

  6. And more importantly how many libraries of congress is that :p

  7. can't wait to see it work on fox news web site on Google Wants To Rank Websites Based On Facts Not Links · · Score: 3, Interesting

    It is an interesting algorithm, but who is to say the fact is correct? if many sites say the same information, the fact is more correct? if that is the case, then how much better is that from links. when there is more than one version of the truth (conflicts, spin vs fact)... plus not all information is facts... philosophical questions may have more than one answer etc... so I am definitely curious to see how this works out

  8. Exclusive: pix of Titan ancient civilizations on Methane-Based Life Possible On Titan · · Score: 2

    According to a news flash I just made up, NASA sent a probe to titan and not only found definitive proof of life there but they were able to take pictures of ancient civilizations of methane based life on titan... According to a new hypothesis formulated by the lead scientist on the mission, "This must be some very old fart" :p

  9. Re: That option exists. on Lenovo Saying Goodbye To Bloatware · · Score: 1

    It may sound counter intuitive... but if that's the solution, you could keep your pc and install windows too :)

  10. Re:/. deals on Google Earth Pro Now Available Free · · Score: 1, Troll

    I loooove cookies... I love the oreo, I love the chocolate chips... I looove cookies

    What do you mean, not that kind of cookies? :p

  11. ZPanel and ispconfig on Ask Slashdot: Is There a Web Development Linux Distro? · · Score: 1

    Though these scripts are not distribs, they allow to easily create mysql databases/ configure vhosts, users/ftp etc.. This allows to host multiple sites on one host zand from what I understand, this is what you are trying to do.

  12. Re:Whoosh! on Researchers Simulate Monster EF5 Tornado · · Score: 1

    Technically, it is still moving... but in a virtual space

  13. It is time to revive punch cards on It's Time To Revive Hypercard · · Score: 1

    _ I had a joke about it but the punch line kind of writes itself
    _ no magnetic stripes so storage should last longer
    _ paper is bio degradable so it is more eco-friendly
    _ we have been too spoiled with code editors

  14. I humbly believe the experiment is flawed on Fermilab Begins Testing Holographic Universe Theory · · Score: 1

    1) even assuming we are holograms, how do they know the imperfections are not simulated
    2) even if the experiment comes with results that confirm it, an irregularity does not mean we are holograms, it could simply mean some theories about the universe are adjusted
    3) Even supposing for a moment that we live in a simulated universe, what the heck are you going to do about it? ask for a refund? ask for a change in the simulation?

  15. Re:Seriously, $250,000? on NASA Setting Up $250,000 Mars Lander Competition · · Score: 1

    I am adding my 2 cents to the prize, effectively making it $10.02

  16. Re:I've never hit a traffic signal. on Your Car Will Tell You How To Hit the Next Green Light · · Score: 1

    yes, never hit appliances, violence is bad :p

  17. Don't listen to that blue sedan in the right lane on Your Car Will Tell You How To Hit the Next Green Light · · Score: 2

    it lies a lot and has no clue on traffic :p

  18. what do you mean no visual? on Ask Slashdot: Why Are We Still Writing Text-Based Code? · · Score: 1

    _ gui interfaces
    _ gui db tools
    _ gui class visualization
    _ auto complete
    _ some uml tools allow you to prototype classes.

    Programming can be as visual as you want it to be. no, this is not fully visual because it does not make sense - it is not because you have a "smart phone" that computers are smart enough yet :)

    my personal question is why are most language still ascii and resort to external library for i18n strings

  19. Re:In morse code : on Space Junk or a Meteor? Fireball Lit Up Midwestern Skies · · Score: 1

    I think you misread the morse code. Watch it again, I believe it says dot slash backwards... slash dot :p

  20. Re:combine with Clippy for even more fun on Google Glass Making Its Way Into Operating Rooms · · Score: 1

    reminds me of a cartoon where the doctor goes "nurse, could you please go to surgery.com and click the I am lost button"... the variation is you can ask google glass directly.... "ok google, help out, I am completely lost here" :)

  21. but more importantly, does it run cargo pants? on Docker 0.7 Runs On All Linux Distributions · · Score: 1

    it is an important feature of dockers :p

  22. ison... isnt that the evil twin of json? on Comet ISON Nears Date With Sun · · Score: 1

    with all the *son technologies, it is hard to keep track :p

  23. Mind/Computer interfaces alternatives? on Mind Control In Virtual Reality, Circa 2013 · · Score: 1

    I am interested in playing with mind/computer tech and I am curious,aside from the Emotiv Epoc, what is there? a quick search found neursky mindset... just wondering if someone had played with the alternatives and could provide some feedback?

  24. Weeks without charging? I'd be happy with days on Researchers Tout Electricity Storage Tech That Could Recharge Devices In Minutes · · Score: 1

    but maybe I am the only one... I must be plugging my phone wrong

  25. reminds me of the movie total recall on Researchers Implant False Memories In Mice · · Score: 1

    except mars would be a chocolate bar
