  2. Great... not filtered out by the body on RNA-Loaded Nanoparticles Fight Cancer · · Score: 1

    From TFA: "researchers have struggled to design particles that carry their contents to target cells with enough specificity, or that don't cause toxicity or elicit an immune reaction from the body." So when can we: a. Make this create cancer, or simply destroy cells b. Add these particles to a cities water supply c. Alter a contagious host virus to create them.

    Why do some websites look okay? Because I, the actual engineer on the project use Opera.. and therefore I make sure the page looks alright. We're tasked with supporting FireFox, IE 7, we force compatibility mode in 8 because of third party controls that we use and can't influence.

  6. Well perhaps they're not allowed speakers at work on Federal Agents Quietly Using Social Media · · Score: 2, Funny

  9. If they could go subscription they would. on BioShock 2's First DLC Already On Disc · · Score: 1

    This is reflected in the massive income MMO's and recieving and shitty income pay once and you're done games. If they could charge you .10 a minute to play they'd be all over it and would happily release new content to you for free. As it is these non-subscription based games have to wring every possible cent out of you and that's going to get you as screwed as possible int he end. The end result is going to be the smallest amount of front-end content they can get away with, and seeing how gamers jumped on horrible DRM games like AC2 well there are plenty of idiots out there who are going to bitch about this but you know they're still going to pick up the games and bend over for the "expansion"

    All of the victims we've worked with had perfectly installed antivirus We all know they're just drumming up business for themselves.

  13. Open Source is the real issue on IBM Stops Disclosing US Headcount Data · · Score: 0, Troll

    Cheap open source software gives developers from around the world competitiveness compared to American workers. Without companies ability to demand higher prices for their closed-source they're unable to pay higher wages to their employees and to remain competitive in the market place must look at cutting labor costs since they can't charge more for their software.

  14. Of course when plastic is exposed to heat... on MIT Scientists Make a Polyethylene Heatsink · · Score: 2, Insightful

    Of course after being exposed to heat for a couple minutes the material transforms back into a chaotic tangled mass since the polymer molecules are only lined up the same way when at a lower temperature with less molecular volatility.

  24. Re: U Are What U Are on Routine DNA Tests For Newborns Mean Looming Privacy Problems · · Score: 1

    I agree those with the inferior composition that would make them believe they were made by God should no feel shame and should be proud to show their maker designed DNA. However some of us are not of the inferior composition that we believe we were made by God but instead by a trial and error process called natural selection which has left us with imperfections. While I feel this imperfections can be corrected with the proper application of science the world is not to that point yet and public exposure of our DNA details exposes us to manmade threats, not just discrimination but physical biological.

  25. Bioweapons on Routine DNA Tests For Newborns Mean Looming Privacy Problems · · Score: 1

    Why is everyone talking about using this to solve crime or find/fight genetic disease. This is a huge datastore to check to effectiveness of bioweapons against a large population. Bioweapon effects people with ABAB genes, that's contained in 86% of population. That's the only real use I see for this large of a stroe of DNA information. You can't be sure what percentage of what population contains what DNA markers without great storehouses like this.
