  1. Glacial melting? on World's Oldest Fossils Found In Greenland (washingtonpost.com) · · Score: -1, Troll

    Damn, that glacier is melting quick! We didn't even have to dig for it! All we had to do was burn a crap ton of carbon to do the excavating for us!

  4. Re:A return to refractive telescopes? on New Flat Lens Focuses Without Distortion · · Score: 1

    So, I could make a tiny, easily concealable square to focus gamma rays at someone to irradiate them?

  5. This might be more expensive than paste... on Sony's Thermal Sheet Good As Paste For CPU Cooling · · Score: 2

    ...but can it be reused? Can you put it on an entirely different processor after being used? If so, then it would definitely be worth the money... if it were made by somebody other than Sony, that is.

    Or it could just, you know, stop?

  7. Re:phone home? on Why Microsoft Killed the Windows Start Button · · Score: 1

    If it did that, there's no way in Hell that Microsoft could have come to that conclusion.

  8. What the actual fuck!? on Why Microsoft Killed the Windows Start Button · · Score: 1

    What group of people did they look at to get that impression!? Linux users? They certainly stopped using it... along with Windows for what should be a clearly obvious reason: Microsoft doesn't listen to it's customers.

  9. For being a conservative government... on At Canadian Airports, Your Conversation May Be Remotely Recorded · · Score: 1

    ...they sure are liberally applying the surveillance.

  14. How many employees would that be? on Cost of Pre-Screening All YouTube Content: US$37 Billion · · Score: 1

    Well, you would need to have one employee for each hour of video. So, that's 72 employees. But since 72 employees can't watch an hour of video in a minute, we need to increase that to an hour. That sharply increases to 4320 employees, with each one screening 1 hour of content every hour, assuming they're required to look over every little bit of content. Let's say they're required to take breaks. Tack on an extra 680 employees for a nice round number of 5000 employees. What about finding out if something is copyrighted? That's an extra 1000 employees confirming that something is copyrighted in addition to the 5000 initial screeners. 6000 employees. Now, let's assume those 6000 working 8-hour shifts. But wait, there's content being uploaded 24/7. So now we have at least 18,000 employees. Taking sick leave and vacations into account, we need maybe at least 2000 more employees to fill in for those. Now, those 20,000 employees have to be paid. Let's assume they're being paid modestly at $22 an hour. (I don't know enough about salaries to give a fuck about calculating that) That's $440,000 dollars to those employees. Per hour. $10,560,000 per day. $147,840,000 every 2 weeks. That's $2,620,800,000. $3,843,840,000 every year.

  15. Just another reason... on Police Charge News of the World Editor Over Voicemail Hacking · · Score: 5, Insightful

  17. I'll probably get downmodded for this, but... on Why Desktop Linux Hasn't Taken Off · · Score: 2

    Have you ever considered the possibility, that some people might not want Desktop Linux to take off. But not for the reason you would think. See, if everybody started using desktop Linux, then, just like what has happened with MacOS X, malware will start appearing for it in ever increasing numbers. Lots of Linux users I know use it as a safe haven from Windows and all it's malware. I don't think they want to see that haven suddenly infested, and have to do something like switch to a different distro every few months/years/etc in order to keep their haven...
