  1. Re:One advantage FF has over Chrome, IMO on Chrome Becoming World's Second Most Popular Web Browser · · Score: 1

    I am in the same boat as Maow,
    I can't trust Google either.
    Spybot S&D always seems to pull up tracking cookies in Chrome folders and not FF folders. So unless FF cookies are defaulting into Chrome folders I have a pretty good indicator of who's allowing what.

    Google makes it money through intelligent data sales. FF is Open Source. You tell me who seems more trustworthy!?

  2. Re:There is no FIRE IN SPACE YOU DUMBA on Fire Burns Differently In Space · · Score: 1

    So from what you're leading to if you see a fire in microgravity and try to run away from it your motion would pull in oxygen and make the flames fly towards you!?

    The more you move the worse the fire gets as you create more convection. Yikes!
    There goes stop drop and roll, would be more like Stop and remain motionless.

  3. Re:So here I go getting modded "troll"... on US Drone Fleet Hit By Computer Virus · · Score: 2

    No, you're not a troll. You're on point.
    I love Linux, I hate Windows.
    But it is not my religion.

    Bottom line when it is this important you develop a specifically created OS. Like you said you create it, you control its use. Nobody else can!

    Remember the days when the boys at Bell labs did stuff like that? What about the kids at Berkley?
    Make your own OS!!

    Now get off my lawn!

  4. Re:Facebook wants to be the Internet's ID layer on Fake Names On Social Networks, a Fake Problem · · Score: 1

    Rob,
    Wouldn't you agree that REAL purpose of FB and G+ is that they want to market and sell to their users ? The ID layer is just the way to ensure that they are selling the most accurate data (users)? It seems like everywhere I go I see the like button. Everything I "like" allows FB to gather and sell my preferences as self indicating preferences to a product or service. Isn't that their real purpose? The connection to my friends also indicates what my preferences based on their likes, Networking is just a by-product.

    BTW my name is Brian Smith .. . lived down the hall from a Brian Smith in a College dorm named Smith Hall. LOL!
    I love the anonymity associated with my name!

  5. Re:Rocks Hit Earth on Building Blocks of DNA Confirmed In Meteorites · · Score: 1

    Well ok, you could have just said no but your complicated answer works as well. (I'm not a moron and I did understand what your were explaining)
    I heard my now "silly" theory from a P.h.D of the religious sort in a lecture one time. I didn't hold much to the theory but from your response I understand why a firm no is a logical conclusion. Thanks for the reply. Your +1 was well deserved, if I could I'd give you a + mod point as well.

    Care to point me to some literature you were referring me to? I love to read over my head, so feel free! (Seriously)

  6. Rocks Hit Earth on Building Blocks of DNA Confirmed In Meteorites · · Score: 1

    I've read most of the posts here and did not see anyone posting the possibility that meteor have hit the earth over the years (however many billions of years) which launched some "building blocks" or Amino Acids into space in the form of meteorites etc. . .?
    Could it be possible that some of those rocks God threw at us bounced off and scattered materials across the galaxy and beyond?

  7. Re:Will Consumers Pay? on The End of the Gas Guzzler · · Score: 1

    You mean, would they pay the price of a Prius? They're on back order.

    Which has nothing to do with the recent tragedy in Japan. (insert sarcasm here)

  8. Re:McCain should look in the mirror. on McCain Decries "Hobbits," Accused of Ringbearing · · Score: 1

    Except that Palin is not a true Teabagger. This whole tea party thing is as much smoke and mirrors as any of it. Palin jumped on the bandwagon when she saw it as a real way to align herself with a group of people that would pay attention to her and get her to appear on all those cable "News Channels" (and I use the term news loosely). I have lost complete faith in the system as a whole. They're all crooked, every last one of them Repub, Dem, Libritarian (who are they anyways), Teabaggers etc, ALL crooks.

    Damn politics has reduced me to a fecking TROLL!

  9. Goes to prove the point . . . on Gates: Not Much To Show For $5B Spent On Education · · Score: 4, Informative

    Proves the point that we knew all along, throwing money at the educational system does not fix it! Just look at the govt track record. Time to dump the institutional model? I'm sure this article will spark the ever repeating slashdot argument about what's wrong with America's school system.
