  1. Re:Earth Resources? on Don't Talk To Aliens, Warns Stephen Hawking · · Score: 1

    I agree. The number of planets and asteroids in the universe is staggering. To require any resources from the planet earth is silly when they are available closer to their home. And why fight a war over resources when obviously you passed many other sources on the way to planet earth. As for slaves, I dont think that would count for much. We cant be of much use. As a food source, I cannot imagine we would be a good source. After all if they can span light years with their technology, they should have a more efficient way of producing food. So I would imagine that our planet is nothing more than a curiosity side show. Something to watch for entertainment value.

  2. Re:Dear Oracle on Oracle Wants Proof That Open Source Is Profitable · · Score: 1

    Oracle now has risc sparc hardware Sun was selling. Yes people still buy sparc servers and solaris, and support for both the hardware and software. What they need is some good marketers not proof that sparc or solaris can make money.

  3. awww... now you've done it! on New Wave of Antibiotic-Resistant Bacteria · · Score: 1

    How can we now run around and say omg! omg!omg I'm going to die! When you post this stuff. I mean just look at h1n1...err I guess that is a virus. Never mind. Ok, what about the poor bacteria we keep killing....err, k I'll stop now. Too much sensationalism in the press is what will really kill us. That and a lack of education.

  4. Heh - maybe they should try a different idea on NY Times To Charge For Online Content · · Score: 1

    Allow subscribers to post comments to each article and advertisement, but everyone else who don't subscribe suffer with the fact that they cannot reply/correct comments that are in error or silly. Also subscribers have an option of turning off comments and advertising. Also those that want certain advertising and are subscribers the ability to pick only that type of advertising. Just ideas rambling in a very old mind.

  7. Re:Being human, being cyborgs on What DARPA's Been Up To, At Length · · Score: 1

    I am not sure educational standards have an effect on laziness. Laziness is not assigning priority to socially acceptable norms and actions. Attitudes and social engineering should be the focus if we are to keep our free will. These are normally shaped and developed in our communication media such as TV, News papers, Radio.
