  1. Re:Mixed feeling on HIV Vaccine · · Score: 3, Interesting

    Don't forget the Billions the drug corps spend on Ads in the US. Most countries do not allow such advertizing and someone has to pay for it.

  2. Wrong. on HIV Vaccine · · Score: 1

    Most of the drugs that are sold in Canada are produced in the EXACT same factories that produce the drugs that are sold into the US market.

    That is why most of the packaging is the exact same with the addition of French.

  3. Re:come on on Intel's Expensive Disco Ball · · Score: 1

    Not in all cases as this shortage is due to Intel not producing as many chips because they didn't think they would sell. IOW they left profit on the table because they didn't produce enough. Now, if they sell all they can produce that is a good thing.

  4. FUCK the ACLU. on Former Turkish DMOZ Editor Draws 10 Months In Jail · · Score: -1, Offtopic

    I know the ACLU does a lot of good work but, for the life of me, I can not understand why they have to take on the Boy Scouts.

    Also, with all the donations they get, you would think they could buy a copy of the Bill of Rights that had all 10 adms on it.

  5. Re:Turkey in the EU on Former Turkish DMOZ Editor Draws 10 Months In Jail · · Score: 1

    So Turkey has the same policy in regards to the Kurds as most of the Arab world has in regard to the PA?

  6. Re:China and Environment: Not Funny at All on Scientists Propose 'National Parks' On Mars · · Score: 1

    The french bashing is done because people find it funny.

    The china bashing is done because it is true.

    slight difference.

    That doesn't come from the goverment, it comes for the campaigns...

    Then why don't you defend China?

  9. Re:I'll take 100,001 please on Steve Ballmer's $100 PC, Sans Windows · · Score: 1

    Hell, I could get 100,000 units built if I was paid in advance, it would just take some time for them to be delivered.

  10. Re:Garbage. on Steve Ballmer's $100 PC, Sans Windows · · Score: 1

    And that is pretty much all that Dell is so what is your point? I hate to tell you, but it doesn't matter how good your product is unless you have good salesmen behind it.

  11. Re:10.2 Billion on Gone Phishing? · · Score: 1

    They made it up. Hell, that number is almost as large as the 'losses' the insurance companies took during this years hurricane season.

  12. Re:Tell Michael Mooron to change his electoral map on WA Governor Recount Ends With 42-Vote Difference · · Score: 1

    Then sell your computer(s) and donate the money to help unwed mothers. Otherwise shut the hell up.

  13. Re:Not after the bad NWN launch on World of Warcraft Reaching Record MMOG Sales · · Score: 1

    What problems did you have with NWN, because I didn't have any.

  14. Re:Games arent just for kids anymore on Game Industry Derided For Mature Content · · Score: 1

    Video Game companies don't donate enought money to the whores in DC. One they do, this will go away.

  15. Re:Important to note on Microsoft Replaces Your Pirated Windows, For Free · · Score: 1

    I thought that SP2 didn't install on pirated copies, or is there a way around that?

  16. Re:Top Ten most violent books of the Bible on Gaming Naysayers Have Little Context for Criticism · · Score: 1

    Where does the Bible say it is perfect?

  17. Re:Intel should know better...Overstated on Intel Quietly Adopts AMD's x86-64 · · Score: 1

    That 268 435 456 megabytes, if read from address 0 to the end, would take 3.034 DAYS to finish at 1 GIGABYTE per second.

    Damn, that is a lot of memory

  18. Re:Don't live in the city.... on Game Industry Derided For Mature Content · · Score: 1

    Not really, most places in Dallas/Fort Worth/Hurst/Euless/Bedford have crime rates that are significantly higher than more rural areas. Please understand that I am not saying the cities are crime havens, it just that more rural areas are, as a rule, safer.

  19. Re:Speaking of mature content... on Game Industry Derided For Mature Content · · Score: 1

    How is religion demanding respect?

    You are making the assumption that if one believes in God that they are do not believe in science.

    I happen to believe in both.

    Besides, you responded to my post first. ;->

    Do you attack religion on /.?

    If you do not then the post isn't directed at you.

  25. These are the same type of people... on Gaming Naysayers Have Little Context for Criticism · · Score: 2, Insightful

    These are the same type of people who think that D&D is satanic because some of the characters in the game can cast magic spells. The fact that you roll a dice to see what happens doesn't matter to them and when asked about that little issue they just ignore it.
