  1. Re:imagine explaining Christianity to an alien on Lego Bible Too Racy For Sam's Club · · Score: 1

    Catholics != Christians. If you're going to mock somebody, make sure you're targeting the right group.

  2. Re:Can I learn how to program the GPU from the sou on Doom 3 Source Released · · Score: 1

    Not easily, no. It would be a bit like learning a foreign language by taking a job as a UN translator. Or if you need that in a car analogy, learning to drive by becoming a stunt driver.

  3. Re:Prognosis? on Google To Shutter Knol, Wave, Gears · · Score: 1

    Well, it's not lupus, I know that.

  4. Re:Why so much disbelief in aliens among scientist on Exoplanet Count Tops 700 · · Score: 2

    Yes. Niven addressed this in the sequel by adding massive engines to the ring that stabilizes it.

  5. Re:Awesome on Google Upgrades WebP To Challenge PNG Image Format · · Score: 4, Informative

    and it is the only royalty free web video codec.

    Except Theora. Though from what I've seen WebM has the edge in video quality.

  6. Re:If you're not a first-person shooter fan on Intel's Plans For X86 Android, Smartphones, and Tablets · · Score: 1

    Pretty sure he was talking about X3: Reunion, not Mega Man X3. Other then that, your point is valid.

  7. Re:It's about loopholes, adherence and enforcement on W3C Proposes Unified "Do Not Track" Privacy Standard · · Score: 1

    Wouldn't work. Every time they'd get sent out on a call, they would have to spend three years deciding the most efficient route first.

  8. Re:More Specifically Aimed at Chinese Fur Farms on Mario's Raccoon Suit Enrages PETA · · Score: 1

    Dogs are cute.

  9. Re:You still need iPhone 4S on Siri Protocol Cracked · · Score: 1

    Slightly OT, but that post (this thread - really, the whole story) brings to mind this: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=FPqk_eKwVLY

  10. Re:some proteins are better than others on In-Vitro Muscle Cells, It's What's For Dinner · · Score: 1

    Isn't the whole point of that thing that fish are ugly and if they looked like kittens people wouldn't eat them? And does anyone else find the "sea kittens" on that page really, really creepy?

  11. Re:Offtopic - please make the sourceforge thing go on In-Vitro Muscle Cells, It's What's For Dinner · · Score: 2

    It wouldn't bother me so much if it didn't show the top downloads. As it is now, all I ever see are the same four projects every time, all of which I already knew about. I suspect 95% of the other people who see it already knew about them before, too. All in all, rather pointless.

  12. Re:Do not like this release schedule at all on Firefox 9.0 Beta Available · · Score: 2

    You might take a look at YouTube Downloader for Chrome. Adds a handy menu below any youtube video for downloading the video in various resolutions. The only time I need to use Firefox for this now are other places like Dailymotion the extension doesn't support.

  13. Re:Rather Petty, Adobe... on Adobe Ends Development of Flash On Mobile Browsers · · Score: 1

    Gee, it's almost like HTML5 is some sort of work-in-progress draft standard, that nobody should expect universal or efficient, complete support for yet.

    Wait a minute... *looks at parent's username* Damn, I've been trolled.

  14. Re:God smiting the bible belt on Oklahoma Hit By Its Strongest-Ever Recorded Quake · · Score: 1

    [Citation needed]

    No, really. I've read the bible more than once, and I'd really like to know what I'm missing.

  15. Re:Or, You Know, You Could NOT Be a Complete Dick on Ask Slashdot: Learning Dart Development? · · Score: 2

    If nobody ever reinvented the wheel they would still be made out of stone.

  16. Re:Why not... on Apple's Lossless Audio Codec (ALAC) Now Open Source · · Score: 1

    No idea if you have the right iPod, or if this counts as modifying the installed os, but you could look at Rockbox.

  17. Re:Quorum looks a lot like Pascal on Is Perl Better Than a Randomly Generated Programming Language? · · Score: 1

    Both those lines mean exactly the same in Python - absolutely nothing. Whitespace-only lines are ignored.

  18. Re:Ice Cream Sandwich? Really? on Android Ice Cream Sandwich SDK Released · · Score: 1

    True enough. I wasn't knocking code names; I was just pointing out that unless you're familiar with Android, it may not be obvious its code names follow a pattern.

  19. Re:Ice Cream Sandwich? Really? on Android Ice Cream Sandwich SDK Released · · Score: 1

    Yes. What does that have to do with pattern recognition in software code names?

    If you're not aware that Google is naming them alphabetically, it looks like they're just picking random dessert names.

  20. Re:So what if your standing IN FRONT of the wall? on Seeing Through Walls · · Score: 2

    Mythbusters already disproved that. They tried to cook a chicken with a radar dish and nothing happened. And as someone else already pointed out, microwaves don't cook from the "inside out".

  21. Re:Ice Cream Sandwich? Really? on Android Ice Cream Sandwich SDK Released · · Score: 2

    Because most people learn that in kindergarten, whereas aside from Android code names are typically more or less random?

  22. Re:Push this on the queue of broken dreams... on No Tab Relocation Coming For Chrome · · Score: 1

    *cough*

    Adblock Plus and NotScripts for Chrome. Both work great over here.

  23. Re:North of the equator? on Analysis of Galaxy Spin Reveals Universe Might Be Left-Handed · · Score: 1
  24. Re:Numbered Final Fantasies as MMOs on Final Fantasy XIV Subscriptions Returning, PS3 Version In 2012 · · Score: 1

    Well, it's simpler than calculating inverses of matrices, while cutting your foot of, while making love to a woman, while singing at Woodstock, while defusing an H-bomb, while reading tensor calculus, while defecting north korea.

    Hey, you had the same weekend I did!

  25. Re:"Concerns about a closed model".. on Valve Boss Expects Apple To Challenge Game Consoles · · Score: 1

    And nothing, really. Just pointing out the other consoles are PowerPC-based as well. Re-reading Tukz's post it seems less relevant now, but it seemed like a good idea at the time.
