  1. Re:This one makes some sense on FBI Seeks Suspect's Web Game Records · · Score: 1

    No lies. The potential tea partier I was referring to was the parent poster, not the shooter.

  2. Re:This one makes some sense on FBI Seeks Suspect's Web Game Records · · Score: 1, Offtopic

    I was referring to the poster I responded to, not the shooter.

    No. Putting him in a home for the mentally ill will out at risk the non-violent residents. If he really is mentally ill, he can be institutionalized in a maximum security mental institution until such time as he is fit to stand trial. That time spent institutionalized will not count towards his eventual sentence.

    I was referring to the poster, not the killer BTW.

    And have you seen the comments section of Fox news and the yahoo news articles before they were deleted? I did. Thousands of people were cheering at these murders.

    you can be both a nutcase and a criminal. And locking someone like that away does help people by severely restricting the number people he can target for his next insane killing spree.

    Good encryption isn't very useful if you are trying to broadcast information publicly, for instance in a forum.

  7. Re:FBI make reasonable request on FBI Seeks Suspect's Web Game Records · · Score: 1

    Correct, though "asked" raises the question on if they issued a warrant, subpoena or if they did it informally. The article isn't clear on this.

    He might be a tea party member AKA nutjob. In that case he might believe that Laughner was just seeking second amendment resolution to an election.

    As much as I loath html5 (XHTML2 forever!), it has features that allow it to cache itself and be used offline if the browser implements the spec correctly.

  10. Re:Several? on Scientist Says NASA Must Study Space Sex · · Score: 1

    Sex has happened in space, but it has not been studied specifically. IIRC the first time was a couple of Russian men. It isn't widely discussed.

  11. Re:Several? on Scientist Says NASA Must Study Space Sex · · Score: 1

    Women are different, different in ways that likely make them better at space travel in the long term. They generally weigh less, are smaller and consume less food/water/air than men. Take all that and the fuel cost to lift that extra mass, and the extra mass of extra fuel into account and the difference in cost between sending a man or woman to mars could be an order of magnitude.

  12. Re:Putting the snideness of the summary aside... on Ars Thinks Google Takes a Step Backwards For Openness · · Score: 1

    The problem with h.264:

    video encoded with h.264 is only free for non commercial purposes, that includes ad driven sites.

    most video cameras, including many >$10k professional cameras export to h.264 natively and in many cases exclusively.

    This already makes most video on the web illegal for violating the h.264 license.

    The free period for non commercial use has an expiration date and there is not an absolutely certain contract to extend it indefinitely.

    Thats the one. Big, wide, giant wheels.

  14. Re:Yawn Comics on Evolution of the Batmobile · · Score: 1

    There is one bat mobile I do not see on that list, and it happens to be one that has some resemblance to the tumbler. It was very tank like, I don't recall exactly what series it was from though, one where he was an old man.

    We do know more. This was the second murder attempt of someone on that list.

    Since the two attempted murders of people she has targeted. One by cutting his gas line and the other by gunning down 15 or so innocent people.

    You are forgetting things like modern computer technology actually does take advantage of some advanced physics like quantum tunneling.

    Chimps and Bonobo hunt monkeys for food regularly, Gorilla's fish. While a daily diet of ~half meat is excessive, regularly eating meat has been a staple of our diet for longer than we have been human.

    I unless you are a 12 year old playing counterstrike 12 hours a day, I think you misspelled "fad".

    Ah yes, ramen noodles. With 0% of your RDA of every essential nutrient except salt (15% for that).

  23. Re:Vegetarianism anyone? on Scientists Advocate Replacing Cattle With Insects · · Score: 1

    Vegetarianism is unnatural and unhealthy for humans. In the US we may eat more meat than we need, but vegetarianism is not the answer. The protein, fats and essential amino acids of meat are critical for the development of healthy strong people from pregnancy through young adulthood.

    Some are less ignorant and misinformed than others. Scientists in particular are required to be informed and not ignorant in order to do their job. Politicians are required to be misinformed and ignorant in order to serve their masters (hint, the masters are not the people).

    accidental shooting by the UK police in a train station? if you are referring to the incident I think you are, it was an outright execution of an unarmed and completely unaware person.
