  1. Duke Nukem Forever on What Game Do You Love? · · Score: 1

    Of course.

    You can't possibly get bored of it.

  2. Nothing new, same flaws as other studies on 20th Century Warmest In 1200 Years · · Score: 1

    This "yet another multiproxy study" is examined by McIntyre on The Climate Audit site, and reveals that it is based on the same ingredients as the other "hockey stick" type studies, with the same bias toward the result.

  3. Noise cancelling headset on Headphones in Corporate Culture? · · Score: 2, Informative

    I've been using the Bose QuietComfort II for nearly two years now (I'm working in a noisy environment) mainly for its noise cancelling ability, and I'm very satisfied with it. Of course, it's expensive, but in my opinion, it was well worth the price.

  4. You are perfectly RIGHT ! on Duke Nukem Forever in Production · · Score: 1

    Absolutely ! When it ships, I for one am going to buy a copy... even if never open the box (in the eventuality there is no Linux version).
    The most famous vaporware in existence has to be a HUGE success.

  5. Re:Bombing Mars on Plan To Bomb Mars For Signs of Climate Change · · Score: 1

    ... and to bring back all that martian oil bonanza to sustain Our Way of Life, one generation more.

  6. Re:I had this problem... on Brain Surgery Patient Trapped in a Mental Time Warp · · Score: 1

    Can you elaborate about the process of regaining your long term memory ? How did it happen ?

    Also, is there now a kind of "gap" (or several "gaps") in your memories of that period ?

  7. Mathematical proof of code is a tough business on New Software To Balance Privacy and Security? · · Score: 5, Insightful
    Their greping thing is not interesting per itself, but I'd like to see this:
    [...]a new and powerful example of a piece of code that has been mathematically proven to be impossible to reverse-engineer[...]
    I'd like to see the demonstration. Until such time, I call bollocks and I refuse to believe an "impossible to reverse-engineer" piece of code ever exists.
  8. In other news... on RFID Production to Increase 25 fold by 2010 · · Score: 2, Funny
    RFID Zapper production set to increase 1000 folds during the same period.

    And that's just because most beople can't afford A real EMP shock generator

  9. Oh, deja-vu ! on Web Users Judge Sites in the Blink of an Eye · · Score: 5, Funny

    It happens when they change somthing in the Matrix, so beware, agents are coming!

  10. It's not changing, it's just unkown ! on Dark Energy May Be Changing · · Score: 0, Redundant

    Because you don't know the power of the Dark Side.

  11. Demystifying class loading problems on Oracle and Sun Team Up to Provide .NET Alternative · · Score: 1

    Apparently you were caught in a class loading problem you didn't understand. You need to have a look at the article series Demystifying class loading problems, on the IBM DevelopersWorks site.

  12. On the Cell Processor from the source on IBM's Radical Cell Processor · · Score: 5, Informative

    More information about the Cell processor directly from the source : The Cell project at IBM Research

  13. Re:extraterrestrial life from Mars, Europa, and on Keeping Alien Samples Safe For Study · · Score: 1

    Europe is located on Earth, yes, but who knows, maybe US are not located on Earth, if you take a look at the strange attitude of the american govt towards the rest of the world, lately...

  14. Both are physically impossible on A Timeline of the Future · · Score: 1

    Relativity forbids faster than light travel of massive objects, and as well as travelling negatively along the ais of time.

  15. Almost Ok, but on Hitachi's Wearable Internet Appliance · · Score: 1

    Is it possible to intall some decent OS on it ? It would be nice to compile a kernel while jogging in the forest ;-)

  16. Release date : september 2000 on Professional Linux Programming · · Score: 1

    It's nearly 1 1/2 years old. Is this a new edition ?

  17. It's fine, here on 2.4, The Kernel of Pain · · Score: 1

    I've been using it in production on high-load servers since the late 2.3 series, and no major problems came from the kernel itself (more issues with crappy hardware never designed to handle the load). So for intensive (>100 million hits a day) services, it is OK, as far as I'm concerned.

  18. It's far from being the ONLY identifier on Microsoft to Focus on Security · · Score: 1

    Remember : the latest version of windoz itself is subscription-based, which means another unique ID. Not taking into account the other uids found so far in the microsoft office, processor id, network card MAC, not counting the yet to be discovered unique ids, the "passport" centralized accounting, the whole micro$oft thing is in itself a gigantic polymorohic security and privacy concern.

  19. Re:Emission free engine? on This is IT? · · Score: 1

    ... ad think of the pollutants you reject to be able to walk : CO2, but also surplus solid/liquid dejects, because of the increased aountof food... And think of the pollutants of the whole food industry, in addition. You pollute, man, whatever you do, that's called life.

  20. coool on Mining On The Moon · · Score: 1

    Before some environmentalist moron comes up with some lame comment about saving nature and not touching space, let's enjoy this penultimate attempt to make money by exploiting natural resources which belong to nobody. Since moon is a dead space body, no pollution problem whatsoever, no local inhabitants to complain or nationalize after all the big infrastructure work has been done. Even governments are not interested, therefore won't interfere. An industrial dream.

  21. ouuups ! 4million errors/second ! on Scientists build DNA based computer · · Score: 1

    of course I made this calculation with a DNA computer.

  22. 2 million errors/second on Scientists build DNA based computer · · Score: 1

    99.8 % accuracy, 2 billion instructions/second = 2 million errors / seconds. Even a pentium looks smart compared to that.

  23. Where has this been proved ? on Antarctic Ozone Hole Leveling Off · · Score: 1

    Where is the evidence of the increase of human skin cancers due to "ozone hole" ?

  24. It will NEVER disappear on Antarctic Ozone Hole Leveling Off · · Score: 1

    because it hase NEVER appeared due to human activity. The ozone "layer" exists because there is oxygen in our atmosphere, and ozone creation is the continuously ongoing result of the solar UV. The southern "hole" is simply due to a few factors, such as the antartic vortex, which insulates Antartic continent from the rest of the atmosphere during the night (i.e. from april to november). There has been no measure of the ozone layer "width" in the past prior to the "discovery" of the "hole". This is total bullshit. Now a little question : when did the patents on CFC expired ? When did the worldwide campaign against CFC begin ? When did the so-called "replacement" product to CFC patent will end ? Who own(ed) the patents ?

  25. Ther is a better idea on Slashback: Snapshots, Amends, Bazaarity · · Score: 1

    I suggest that, instead of suing those poor children, you just display a list of IP addresses of IIS servers, along with the information that your server is NOT an IIS whenever they try to attack. This way they will be informed and won't come back, and in addition (gosh, 10,000 a day !) they will go do some clean-up job in IIS servers.
