  1. Re:Zero G on Simulated Mars Mission 'Returns' After 520 Days · · Score: 1

    I somewhat agree. One might be able to argue that it could be worse psychologically too. In that I mean that the participants still know that they are on earth, so why do I need to wait 6 minutes (guessing at a time delta here...) to get a response from 'earth' when I know that it shouldn't take that long. It could make a play on the frustration aspect of human psychology. If I were in space, I would just know that it's a limitation of radio waves being limited to the speed of light. On earth, it's just make believe. Just playing devil's advocate here.

    I agree with all of that. I'm a smoker. If I go on a transatlantic flight, I not once 'need' to have a cig or a craving, because I know that it just cannot, in anyway happen. The second you get to the terminal is a different matter tho....

  2. Proper methods of measurement only please! on Things That Turbo Pascal Is Smaller Than · · Score: 1

    Whats its value in pico-Wales? And, if loaded onto a Kindle, how much would it increase the devices weight in Bulgarian Funbags? http://www.theregister.co.uk/2007/08/24/vulture_central_standards/

  3. Re:That's cool, but my one grip still on Android Ice Cream Sandwich SDK Released · · Score: 1

    Do you really need Bluetooth on all the time? How about a data connection? I tend not to look at the web in my sleep or if I'm gonna be in a long meeting, so I turn that radio off. Its a swipe and a press to turn them back on, it really isn't a hassle at all and the difference it makes isn't small.

  4. Re:What's the Catch? on Egypt Cuts the Net, Net Fights Back · · Score: 1

    I see where you're coming from, but its a sad state of affairs the world is in when a charitable donation of information for what can now be considered an oppressed population must mean theres a gain for the doner. Sad times.

    Yup, mine accepted different case and elongated versions.

  6. Re:Joke Time on Terrorists Bomb Moscow Airport · · Score: 0

    Religion of peace? Or religion of PIECES.

    I find the latter appears to be true more often than not. They enjoy being pieces.

    You stun me. I'm normally a very level headed bloke but: fuck you. I hope you or your loved ones never have to suffer the consequences of a terrorist attack. Fuck you.

  7. Re:Thanks for documenting this on DSL Installation Fail · · Score: 1

    Can you not charge them rent for it being on your property? I know that in the UK there is some provision in law for this...
