  1. Re:YASP (Yet Another Stupid Petition) on EFF Petitioned To Investigate Windows 10 Upgrades (change.org) · · Score: 1

    Doing something is better than doing nothing.

  2. Historic Events with Calthrates on Japan Extracts Natural Gas From Frozen Methane Hydrate · · Score: 1
  3. Distinct names on Strange Mini Solar System Found · · Score: 1

    We don't need to know what the difference is between a planet or asteroid. It's like debating over the boundary between what is classified as 'life'. It's all continuous, not discrete.

  4. passive on VIA Releases Source To Custom WASTE Client · · Score: 2, Interesting

    "Unlike WASTE, which is still under active development..." More like passive development on sourceforge

  5. Re:Do we need them? on Estimates of Marine Mammals Killed by Fishing Nets · · Score: 1

    I would prefer to live in a world where some people still care about the environment instead of one where everyone has given up on the idea of protecting at least some of the creatures.

  6. The smell on World's Largest Flower · · Score: 2, Informative

    It smells like decayed fish because, in the wild, the smell attracts every bug in a 5 mile radius to come and pollinate it.

  7. tiptoe advancements on Mars Flier Prototype · · Score: 0, Offtopic

    Why not put the money for a glider toward a human mission to Mars?

  8. How to Get Out of Work for Dummies on How to Fake A Hard Day at the Office · · Score: 1

    Here is a quote from the article:

    "Instant Message programs, a more-immediate form of e-mail now used by millions of employees, can also be reconfigured. Typically, if you haven't touched your computer in a while, the people you chat with online see an "idle" message next to your name. Diehard slackers can crack into the program settings to make themselves appear perpetually available."

    Diehard slackers can crack it? Come on...

  9. Biology -- Mathematics on Another Breakthrough in Prime Number Theory · · Score: 1

    If they were all tied together, would this mean that the structure of living creatures could be explained with mathematics? (in theory of course)

  10. Resume on FTP: Better Than HTTP, Or Obsolete? · · Score: 1

    Most web browsers do not support resumes for files. You need 3rd party add-ons. Resume is just a standard command in FTP.

  11. /. effect on "If You Can Put It On A T-Shirt, It's Speech" · · Score: 1

    Looks like this link went down moments after it went up.

  12. get some fresh air on Overcomming Programmer's Block? · · Score: 1

    I refreshing walk in the real world usually helps.
