  1. tasktwo.com on What Does Everyone Use For Task/Project Tracking? · · Score: 1

    TaskTwo is a very slick online project(and more) tracker. It's very well thought out and extremely intuitive interface.

  2. Re:You think global warming is a problem? on Yellowstone Supervolcano Larger Than First Thought · · Score: 2, Insightful

    Then why aren't you posting the facts that prove it a hoax? Put up or STFU!

  3. Re:nerve growth unsuppressed == tumors? on Method To Repair Damaged Adult Nerves Discovered · · Score: 1

    I could see one possibility where reconnecting nerves could lead to constant pain and do nothing for any motor functions. In those cases, if the cause of the pain could not be found, the only option would be to cut the newly formed connections.

    I think that would fall in the 'Badness' category.

  4. Re:Climate Science isn't a Science! on The Science Credibility Bubble · · Score: 1

    "Sure we might be warming, just as much as we might have been cooling in the 70s. But what does it matter? We need renewable energy regardless of what the environment is doing."

    Totally agree... whoever is actually correct, there is no downside to cleaning up our air on the planet. We did pollute it ... there's no disputing that! So even if global warming is false, we could still benefit from cleaner air and water!

    Sean Hannity for one... He knows everything!

    jk ... he's an asshat

  6. Re:do not want on FCC Lets Radar Company See Through Walls · · Score: 1

    Seriously... tazers were somewhat billed as 'safe' or 'harmless' when they were new... but then the abuse starts.

    I'm sure this is how it was with 'batin too at first... now look what happened.

  7. They'll call it 'Patriot Radar' on FCC Lets Radar Company See Through Walls · · Score: 1

    That way you're a traitor if you talk against it...

    The article says it will filter out unmoving objects in a room ... however the justification for it is "immobile hostages or unconscious fire victims"

    Well the first one is by definition "immobile" and the second... unless you are still in the burning , you're not going to be moving much either. Although, how does one unconsciously run around on fire waving their arms everywhere.

    I think the tech is cool, but it's going to be misused by law enforcement.

  8. Re:Glad I am not the only one believing that... on Senators Ask EC To Let Oracle-Sun Deal Go Through · · Score: 2, Interesting

    Two years from now we will either have a single Oracle/Sun company or a single Oracle company.

    Only if you believe that a company the size of Sun can disappear in a puff of smoke. :-)

    Sure, Sun would probably go bancrupt. The profitable parts (and some non-profitable, but believed to be profitable or able to be made profitable) would be sold off. A bunch of employees would start their own "Sun 2". Consulting firms would step in to take over maintainance contracts.

    Interesting stuff happens when the old dog leaves the barn, you know?

    of course they can... remember DEC? Digital was going up in a puff of smoke until Compaq acquired the remains.

    Where are the Alpha boxes and OSX now?

  9. On a related note... on IBM Takes a (Feline) Step Toward Thinking Machines · · Score: 1

    Other projects include:

    Homer Simpson Brain: Pentium 3, 128mb memory (70% cpu usage);

    George W Bush Brain: Palm Pilot (10% cpu usage)

    Hollywood Back Swedish Movie Streaming Site

    But how many Ingmar Bergman films can anyone watch?

    I was hoping it's more like 'Swedish Erotica' streaming... hmmm, that takes on a whole new meaning somehow.
