    ya exactly. if we all find out that the iphone 5 had only minor upgrades over the 4 but that 35% buy it asap anyway, then it would be all about social symbol and status etc

  3. Re:and in other news on Climate Skeptic Funded By Oil and Coal Companies · · Score: 1

    on one hand, we have the companies that sell the products that are most likely to cause global warming funding the research that conveniently finds no evidence of global warming. on the other hand, who is funding those finding evidence for global warming? hippies?

  4. worst. article. ever. on Soldier Re-Grows Leg Muscle After Experimental Procedure · · Score: 1

    being a lab scientist, that was painful to read. the explanation of the treatment is borderline gibberish. i've read better biology research reports by high school kids.

    an intellectual: someone who does not whip out their phone in order to answer questions beyond the scope of "hi how are you?" or "how 'bout that weather?"

    there will be towers of old crappy laptops like the garbage in Wall-e.

  13. Re:My neice on US Students Suffering From Internet Addiction · · Score: 1

    ya, that's cause almost anyone can be witty, nice, sweet, whatever when they've got time to think about it, type it out, re-think what they typed, and ultimately send the best possible response. when you're forced to carry on a conversation you don't have time come up with the best possible response... unless you want to be weird and think about it for a minute before speaking!

  19. Re:It's just a part of peoples lives on Facebook Linked To One In Five Divorces In US · · Score: 1

    But SD is 6% related to people getting busted at work for screwing around on the internet instead of working...then getting fired will surely catalyze a divorce.

  20. high enough energy? on Will the LHC Smash Supersymmetry? · · Score: 2

    *warning* semi-naive physics question here: does the LHC smash particles at a high enough velocity (or energy?) to definitively solve these problems? does the absence of a Higgs boson from the previous experiments disprove supersymmetry, or are we not smashing hard enough?

  21. and then on Will the LHC Smash Supersymmetry? · · Score: 1

    Brian Greene can write another book.

  25. Re:Why does this always happen? on Google Censors "Piracy Terms" From Instant Search · · Score: 1

    wrong analogy. if you walk up to some guy on the street, let's call him oh i don't know, Mr G. Oogle, and say "Hey, G. Oogle, where can i find some music for a discount price...y'know, spelled P--I--R--A...". If Mr G. Oogle doesn't tell you how to get discount music, is he performing an act of censorship? obviously not. if you became town crier and were yelling to everyone how to get free copyrighted materials off the internet and Mr G. Oogle pulls up in an unmarked minivan with no back windows, gets out and mugs you, then THAT is censorship. and done in style no less.
