  1. Re:Trial by Fire on Antibiotic Resistant Staph Antibiotic Discovered · · Score: 1

    And then somebody will eventually die because side-effects and the physician will be sued. No, thanks!

  2. Re:The issue is not only about patents and money.. on Antibiotic Resistant Staph Antibiotic Discovered · · Score: 1

    Ignorance speaking...

    Vancomicyn and Teicoplanin are already effective agains MRSA. Their use is restricted by severe policies in almost all countries. Please inform yourself a little before posting :-(

  3. Re:Hasn't anybody READ the book? on Will Smith as I, Robot · · Score: 1

    Ok, I RTFA. The article clearly states Will Smith will take the place of a detective tracing a robot. (Originally it was Susan Calvin, president of Robots R Us). So what is all this talk about?

  4. Hasn't anybody READ the book? on Will Smith as I, Robot · · Score: 2, Interesting

    I've. Four times. And it's almost impossible Will Smith could represent the robots. Many aren't even humanoid.

    However, he could be a GOOD choice for either Powell or Donovan, who represent the "human part" in most stories (in the others is represented by Susan Calvin).

  5. Too many partitions on Most Outrageous Vendor Lie Ever Told? · · Score: 1

    I remember when I buyed my first PC. The local computer salesman told me my lockups problems with Windows 95 where due to "Many harddrives at the same time". I have a 500Mb with two partitions, C: and D:.

  6. Hitbox who? on Linux On the Desktop: 0.24 Percent? · · Score: 1

    Hitbox?. Oh, aren't they those gifs which I never see because I use galeon, or lynx, or opera, or junkbuster? or simply Netscape or Mozzilla without JavaScript (as I routinately surf anyway)?

    I wonder how they classified by Debian box using Netscape (no cookies)/junkbuster combo.

  7. Are there any proofs? on Afghanistan Is Like Nothing You've Ever Seen · · Score: 1

    What I don't understand is if there's any real proof Bin Laden is guilty, and if these proofs have been facilitated to the Taliban govenment or not?

    The information I have reed seems to say there aren't any proofs yet. Will hundrends or thousands of american and afghans die for a mere suposition?

  8. CALL TO ACTION!!!! on Blaming Encryption · · Score: 1

    Why don't we all who use PGP email Mr Zimmerman, so he knows all the good he has done to the world?

    I already wrote him about how PGP enables me to safely exchange patient information to foreign collagues for help and advice.

    I believe this kind of "spam" would be well received :)

  9. Re:Fuckin Palistinians on World Trade Towers and Pentagon Attacked · · Score: 1

    Calm down, cowboy. They're just some palistinians, not The Palistinians. And if you watch carefully, you'll notice they're either children, or part of the guerrilla anti-Israel (I don't remember their name), whom obviously will hate US. Don't classify a whole country for a few dozens people.

    The worst thing US could do now, is going after anything which looks alien. People who think the same you do will probably feel hate for anything which looks palistinian, even if this is your local friendly shop-owner.

  10. Good wishes on World Trade Towers and Pentagon Attacked · · Score: 1

    I just hope this doesn't bring another witch-hunt and the US will get some proofs before they begin to shot/nuke anything that seems islamic.

  11. Here this letter make the change! on Under The Surface Of The BSA Anti-Piracy Campaign · · Score: 1

    In my hometown (San Luis Potosí, México), several cibercafès's managers have been receiving some letters from a national sister of the BSA. Now they are in contact with the local Linux User Group, hoping to move all their software to their free counterparts. The letters just gave them enough reason for get the free software.

  12. Re:Directories are not search engines on Is The Web Becoming Unsearchable? · · Score: 1

    As a Dmoz's editor, I could say that Dmoz would be doomed to failure if classifying the internet were its intention. However, Dmoz's objective are providing a searchable directorie of GOOD sites. It will never contain all of them, but it gets the work done when you're searching for a useful site (and I talk by experience, since this was the exact way I found about Dmoz)

  13. Re:terminus on Terminus Demo Released · · Score: 1

    I believed it had something to do with Asimov's Fundation trilogy (Terminus was the capital world of the Fundation)
