  1. I don't use Facebook on Facebook Boosts Your Self-Esteem · · Score: 3, Insightful

    I don't use Facebook. Obviously my self-esteem can not be boosted any higher.

  2. Re:We will when MS does. on Open Source Guy Takes the Hardest Job At Microsoft · · Score: 1

    Indeed. Look what they did to Nokia.

  3. Openstandards database on What Would You Do With Open.org? · · Score: 2

    Make a database on it containing all open standards, like pdf, odf, HTML, etc. But not OOXML. I bet even MS will not ask to have it on there.

  4. If that is a review on New Apple MacBook Pro Reviewed · · Score: 1

    If that is a review then I am a toothbrush. I expect more from a review than a bunch of facts I can look up at Apple's own website, and some benchmarks.

  5. Re:A BIT expensive?! on New Apple MacBook Pro Reviewed · · Score: 1

    No it isn't. I will not repair the machine, it's 4.5 years old now so even AppleCare would have been long gone if I had gotten it with the machine, and AppleCare is so freakin' expensive that I would have paid even more per year had I gotten it.

    I was way over 400 recharges with all abtteries I replaced :)

  7. Re:A BIT expensive?! on New Apple MacBook Pro Reviewed · · Score: 1

    I bought my MBP in 2006 for € 2450,- or so. They keyboard has broken down (€ 74,-), the CD-drive (warranty), I'm on my third battery (€ 240,-), second powersupply (€ 30,- at ebay) and now I have a trackpad that is slowly falling apart and a ventilator that makes horrible noises every now and then. So the thing cost me € 620,- a year, which I find quite a lot of money. Repairing the trackpad and ventilator will cost me another 300 or so euros, so I will buy a new MBP tomorrow.

  8. Re:How does this help my work day? on Microsoft Shows Off Radical New UI, Could Be Used In Windows 8 · · Score: 1

    Try to write on a board and make neat characters. You have to be a teacher with lots of experience to be able to do that.

  9. Rubbish video on Microsoft Shows Off Radical New UI, Could Be Used In Windows 8 · · Score: 1

    That was the most useless video I have ever seen. What does this guy want to get across? Who are his intended audience? I lost him after about 5 seconds because he was only talking bullshit.

  10. Re:Memory leak? More like gaping hole on Firefox 4 Beta 12 Released; Fixes Over 650 Bugs · · Score: 1

    No, that's a safety feature.

  11. Re:hmm on MacBook Pro Specs Leaked, iPad Event March 2 · · Score: 2

    Man all those people complaining about Apple news annoy the hell out of me. I will call them names and in that way display my superiority.

  12. Re:What's going on? on Ubuntu: Where Did the Love Go? · · Score: 1

    That joke has a beard as long as the Eiffel tower is high.

  13. Re:It's not fascism on Steve Jobs Health Worries Escalate · · Score: 1

    I'm not American and I haven't been educated by the American education system. Furthermore I am truly astonished by the amount of self-importance and ignorance you show. I agree with Alanis Morisette that you have to ask your money back because that degree you have is rubbish.

  14. Yea right on Stanford, UCD Researchers Say 100% Renewable Energy Possible By 2050 · · Score: 1

    As if looking one year into the future isn't difficult enough. The whole article is just wishful thinking.

  15. Re:You present the Apple Hater meme, not reality. on Steve Jobs Health Worries Escalate · · Score: 2

    People who call other people fascists usually can be ignored. If you don't know what 'fascist' means your opinion is probably not based on anything but gut feeling.

  16. No Facebook friends on Number of Facebook Friends Linked To Anxiety · · Score: 1

    I never have any stress because I don't have Facebook.

  17. Re:Open Source? So that means we can fork him? on Man Open Sources His Genetic Data · · Score: 1

    But in our bones it's calcium oxide.

  18. Patented genes on Man Open Sources His Genetic Data · · Score: 3, Interesting

    Haven't some genes been patented during the past years? How about the legal consequences of open sourcing these genes, which are part of his DNA?

  19. Hypocrisy on Clinton Calls For "Ground Rules" Protecting Internet · · Score: 5, Insightful

    I read in the newspaper that the US will help the citicens of Iran to keep the internet running. Obama and Clinton promised that. I find that extremely hypocritic behaviour. Where was the US when Egypt's internet was shut down? Oh yeah, they liked Mubarak so they did nothing. But they don't like Ahmadinejad so now they help the Iranian people. And in the meantime Obama wants a kill switch so he can switch the internet off whenever he wants.

  20. Not paper on Harvard Professor Creates Paper Accelerometer · · Score: 1

    It's not made of paper. It's made of paper, carbon and silver.

  21. Re:Editors, please edit on The Sum Total of the World's Knowledge: 250 Exabytes · · Score: 1

    What I found much more interesting in the article is that in 2002 we had for the first time more information stored digitally than in other formats, and in 2007, 94% of all information in the world was stored digitally.

    Set a man's pants on fire and he will be warm for the rest of his life, eh?

  23. Re:Totally wrong on Nokia and Microsoft Make Smartphone Alliance · · Score: 1

    MS now has its own mobile phone company. They can have Nokia make a phone that is exactly to their liking. That will probably be important for them in the near future.
