  1. Re:Russian space suits... on ISS Spacewalk Cut Short · · Score: 2, Insightful

    Rocket launches are fairly obvious things, especially to spy satellites.

  2. Re:Russian space suits... on ISS Spacewalk Cut Short · · Score: 1

    One has to wonder why the US suits haven't been used yet. Or the US airlock.

  3. Re:yes on Corporate Servers Spreading IE Virus [Updated] · · Score: 2, Informative

    http://www.opera.com

  4. Hope on ESA's Rosetta Probe Passed 1st Test · · Score: 0
    The Rossetta probe will enter a quiet 'cruise-mode' until september when th second stage of commissioning will commence."


    Let's hope so.
  5. Longhorn on Microsoft Extends Product Lifecycle · · Score: 1

    Given how long it's looking to get Longhorn out the door, even those who have moved to XP will be on the selfhelp by the time Longhorn is released.

  6. A response to SCO? on Usenix President - Linux Needs Better Paper Trail · · Score: 1

    They really don't deserve one. This sounds too much like "well, they might have a point about..." SCO should just be laughed and pointed at.

  7. Huh? on Linus Not The Father Of Linux, According to Report · · Score: 2

    *MS* funded? Shocking! This smells like SCO.

  8. Re:Probably Bragging on Sasser Author Under Arrest, Say German Police · · Score: 1
    Well, that's all the proof we need isn't it.

    In these enlightened War on Terror times, it most certainly is.
  9. Oh please on Projected 'Average' Longhorn System Is A Whopper · · Score: 1

    Somehow I get the feeling this "average" Longhorn system is what MS is projecting to be what's on the shelf at Best Buy. It's most certainly not the "minimum requirements", which is the logical fallacy that gives this item its sensational value.

  10. Uh... on Third Largest Supercomputer... at Weta Digital · · Score: 1
    "King Kong is covered in hair," he said, "we could be animating that."

    That's going over the edge and swimming across the ocean right there.
  11. Argh on OpenBSD 3.5 Released · · Score: 0, Offtopic

    Didn't even need /.'ing this time...

  12. Re:true but on Towards Silent Supersonic Planes · · Score: 1

    Supercruise does you no good if you're still trailing a sonic boom.

  13. Re:Forward Contamination on Our Man In Black · · Score: 1

    The people are going to be *outside* those suits, and in a position to contaminate them at some point. I suppose you could "sterilize" an entire airlock with suits inside, but that would probably only be good for one EVA.

  14. Forward Contamination on Our Man In Black · · Score: 2, Interesting

    I think it'll be a bit hard to prevent when sending people. And no doubt there will be some jerks protesting a Mars landing on the infintesmal chance that there *might* be some particles of pre-animate matter laying around just waiting to get wiped out by human diseases.

  15. First Post-It! on Need A Few Post-Its Around The Office? · · Score: 5, Funny

    'Nuff said.

  16. *Completely* Seperate? on A Completely Separate Ecosystem on Earth · · Score: 3, Insightful

    We've found rocks from Mars on this planet, so I dispute the "Completely" part of this. This frozen lake is bound to have interacted with something on this planet.

  17. Re:Oh man... on A Completely Separate Ecosystem on Earth · · Score: 1

    A martian monkey would have a *harder* time in our *higher* gravity.

  18. My 2 on Simpsons Actors on Strike · · Score: 1

    I believe you should cancel a show when you have enough episodes for an all $FOO network.

  19. Splort on Omniscience Protocol · · Score: 1

    So not believing *anything* I see or hear for another 13 hours.

  20. 'Bout Time on Hacker Indicted In France For Publishing Exploits · · Score: 5, Funny

    To move to a sane country. There any left?

  21. OH blah on Social Networking in the Digital Age · · Score: -1, Flamebait

    Friendster was cool for what, two weeks? I haven't tried any of the others, but I think this about sums up the concept: "it's lj without the 'j'".

  22. Remember on Brain Controlled Tightrope Video Game Shown · · Score: 3, Funny

    You must think *in russian*

  23. Re:Simple... on Nasty New Virus Variants · · Score: 4, Funny

    There's only one sensible place for pr0n: usenet.

  24. why doesn't NASA give the Russians a chance? on Energiya Pushes For A 6-Person Space Capsule · · Score: 2, Insightful

    Uh, because the people who hold the purse strings (congress) don't like the money going to people who don't vote for them.

  25. Ninghy? on New Dr Who Actor Named · · Score: 1

    Isn't that a triangular rubber coin several thousand miles long?
