  1. Re:Not only admins on System Admins Should Know How To Code · · Score: 1

    You could write a script that would type my thesis for me? Cool

  2. Re:Heavy drape on Ask Slashdot: Hacking Urban Noise? · · Score: 1

    I imagine there would definitely be some crossover though. Also, studios need to be soundproof too.

  3. Re:yes on Political Science Prof Asks: Is Algebra Necessary? · · Score: 1

    One of the first thing they told us at university was that nothing is proven.

  4. Re:No Surprise There on Apple Exits "Green Hardware" Certification Program · · Score: 1

    What you don't need to do is get so worked up over replies to "a very informal, thread-based message board".

    You do not need to write that wife is not you. She is your wife she can not be you.

    but my wife (who isn't me, as it were)

    I would have loved to have got my editors pen out at this point.

  7. Um on A New Record For Scientific Retractions? · · Score: 1

    Why weren't these papers peer reviewed?

  8. Operant conditioning on A Program Learns Oriental Ink Painting · · Score: 1

    Why can't they just call it what it is?

  9. Re:No dexterity in the fingers on Paralyzed Man Regains Hand Function After Breakthrough Nerve Rewiring Procedure · · Score: 5, Insightful

    You have to remember that this operation probably caused nerve damage too and nerves take a ridiculously long time to heal (about 6mm per week) also the dude hasn't used his hand in four years so he has probably just forgotten how to use it too. He will have a lot of rehab ahead of him i imagine.

  10. Doctoral Thesis Review Panel on German Science Minister Faces Plagiarism Scandal · · Score: 1

    I assume her thesis has already been accepted? Why wasn't this caught by her universities thesis review panel? Sounds like her university has done a crappy job here.

  11. Full Article on Majority of Landmark Cancer Studies Cannot Be Replicated · · Score: 1
  12. Re:iOS but no Android on XBMC V11 Eden Has Been Released · · Score: 3, Informative

    Work is being done on a port for Android but it is slow. See http://forum.xbmc.org/showthread.php?tid=119705

  13. Re:OS-X but no *BSD, either?!? on XBMC V11 Eden Has Been Released · · Score: 2

    No a developer called Fneufneu is still working on it. The pull request wasn't finished/merged in time for Eden. https://github.com/xbmc/xbmc/pull/37

  14. Re:iOS but no Android on XBMC V11 Eden Has Been Released · · Score: 3, Informative

    mplayer is not the 'main decoder' for XBMC. XBMC uses its own media player called dvdplayer and ffmpeg.

  15. Re:Sad Boxee Fan on Boxee 1.5 Will Be the Last Supported Desktop Version · · Score: 1

    You can't just complain then. This XBMC unlike Boxee is open source with no paid developers. If you want a problem fixed you have to report it (via the appropriate routes) or fix it yourself and submit a pull request.

  16. Re:Sad Boxee Fan on Boxee 1.5 Will Be the Last Supported Desktop Version · · Score: 1

    Try out the new beta. 10.1s nearly a year old.

  17. Re:BOB FUCKING SAGET on Boxee 1.5 Will Be the Last Supported Desktop Version · · Score: 1

    Actually Boxee does help out XBMC. Every now and then their developers submit code; they also sponsor the annual XBMC dev conferences and help out with hosting costs.

  18. It's a shame on Download.com Bundling Adware With Free Software · · Score: 4, Insightful

    It's a shame, cnet and download.com used to be moderately safe ways of downloading new trial and freeware software. In my opinion shareware is now an outdated practice, with it now possible to find an open source equivalent for just commercial piece of software.

  19. Stasi on San Francisco Team Wins DARPA's De-Shredding Contest · · Score: 2

    In 1989 when the MfS offices were stormed they tried to shred a whole lot of documents, according to wikipedia there are still 16000 bags of shredded documents to reassemble. I think it would be a really useful application of the outcome of this contest to help put some of those documents back together.
