  1. Re:Here we go again... on Equal Time For Creationism · · Score: 1

    Excellent, so we've managed to evolve yeast into something other than yeast? It's always so heart-warming with which slashdotters are capable of making a counter-point without insults. I always appreciated the level of maturity on this IntraWeb Page.

  2. Re:Here we go again... on Equal Time For Creationism · · Score: 1

    Yay! It's been proven! Wewt! Go team! Somehow, I doubt the media has missed an opportunity as large as proof that evolution is, indeed, fact. Of course if it ever were proven, Fox News would probably sidestep it along with our glorious leader ;)

  3. Re:Here we go again... on Equal Time For Creationism · · Score: 1

    It is a shame the entire article is not available...I'd like to read more. From what is available though, this is not evolution, but simply just adaptation. No fish are growing legs where there were none before or anything of the like.

  4. Re:Here we go again... on Equal Time For Creationism · · Score: 0

    And yet another one - since when has Evolution *every* lended itself to the scientific method? It is UNOBSERVABLE...

    Evolutionism is just as much religion as any Christian faith. *Neither* should be taught in the classroom as *neither* can pass scientific muster.

  5. Beem him on up... on Star Trek's Scotty Dies at 85 · · Score: 2, Insightful

    Beem him on up to the big NCC-1701 in the sky. You will be missed Mr. Doohan.

  6. Re:Crime deterrent on Death Penalty For Hackers? · · Score: 1

    I agree, especially in the case of jay-walking as I work on a college campus...

  7. How many lives were lost? on Death Penalty For Hackers? · · Score: 1

    Really, does the punishment fit the crime? If no lives were lost, then the death penalty far surpasses the punishment warranted. Is a corporate bottom line worth the killing of one person? I say no.

  8. Re:I don't feel bad at all on Preview of Intel's Dual-Core Extreme Edition · · Score: 1

    Yes, but that barly pays for the student loans :)
    But seriously chip designers have to have knowledge of EE as well as quantum physics. The education requirements are extremly demanding, and there few in the world truly capable of doing the work. 120,000 a year is almost embarassingly low if you are talking about chip design.

  9. Re:OS Auditing TNG on Open Source Licensing - Cuts Both Ways? · · Score: 1, Insightful

    Because the maker of the software would be liable as the users have no access to the source-code whatsoever. The logic for open source is that the individuals have access, thus opening them up to liability. Its all BS either way

  10. All new meaning to system "crash" on Windows CE R/C Transmitter · · Score: 2, Informative

    Well, not really because it has two processors: one fore Windows CE and non-critical processes. The other is made by Futaba and controls flying the plane.

  11. Re:Take a lesson on Valve Takes the Offensive on Warez Users? · · Score: 1

    No, just change the settings in the SP2 firewall to deny access to HL2 ;)

  12. Re:Patents Run Out, Right? on Several Publishers Sued for Infringing 3D Patent · · Score: 1

    How long do elephants live again?

  13. Re:Somebody will figure it out on Caller ID Spoofing for the Masses · · Score: 4, Interesting

    Ever heard of Call-Back security? Any security that is based on Caller-ID is inherently flawed.

  14. Re:I know this is basically redundant whinging... on CS: Source Half-Life's Only Multiplayer · · Score: 2, Insightful

    HL2 will have COOP eventually...SVEN COOP 2

    Preview would have been good...mispelled "no" as "now"...

  16. Disappointed... on CS: Source Half-Life's Only Multiplayer · · Score: 2, Interesting

    I am incredibly disappointed that it seems there will be now regular HL2 Deathmatch. I played CS from beta 2 until the present, but I have gotten extremely fed up with CS and want plain, vanilla HL2 DM again...no waiting until your idiot teammate wearning the "myg0t" tag dies as he is the only one left alive on your team...

    Of course, I will be buying the Steam Gold pachage b/c I am a fanboy ;)

  17. Re:self heating soup? on Tempratech Self-Cooling Can · · Score: 1

    The IC Can holds 10oz of beverage and total size is about 16 ounces.

  18. Re:My First Pentium. on The History Of Pentium · · Score: 1, Funny

    You lucky BASTARD, all we had was a 486SX-33. Yes, that's right, no math-coprocessor and no way to play Quake1 when it came out! At least we were able to upgrade from 4 megs of ram to 8

  19. Re:The 9/11 terrorists also used cars on USA PATRIOT Act Survives Amendment Attempt · · Score: 2, Funny

    I think all of the Republicans should vote for 3rd party candidates...

    DICE and Monster. After enough of you leave, this idiot CIO will get the idea.

    Oh oh, and only accept from certain "white-listed" servers like hotmail.com that use Microsoft email "Stamps", right?

    Well, at least it won't matter if the rumors about SP2 not blocking any serials are true come late July. Too bad for Scott Richter ;)

    Almost makes you feel bad for all those people with pirated copies of Windows XP that can't put the patches on, doesn't it?

    It was always nice how easy it was to "disable" the bulb behind the check engine light on my old camaro...
