  1. GDRS taking credit? on Mysterious 'Forcefield' Tested on US Tanks · · Score: 1

    So why does this article state that GDRS (General Dynamics) has unveiled their newest product, when in fact it was RAFAEL (isreal) and IAI Elta who designed this technology. Typical GDRS propoganda! Buy someone elses product and claim it's your own.

  2. Cambridge my ... on A Crazy Cambridge Contraption · · Score: 1

    If your going to post an article about yourselves, then at least make it worthy of looking at (Don't host your website on yahoo free sites where nobody can get a connection to it...)

    So what's the fine line between being so smart you have no common sense and smart enough to have common sense.

  3. already there on Pentagon To Send Robot Soldiers to Iraq · · Score: 1

    This is old news people, we have been there since the beginning. http://www.spawar.navy.mil/robots/newsletter/Robot icsUpdate_4_2.pdf

  4. Re:How about inf minutes for $0? on AOL Canada To Offer VoIP · · Score: 1

    I'm only paying 16 a month for VOIP and I can call everyone including the chinese delivery boy. IP phones are so 20th century...

  5. Re:Um, no. on Does Your LCD Play Catch-Up To Your Mouse? · · Score: 1

    I agree, it shouldn't have anything to do with the refresh rate (Although I wouldn't know because my samsung LCD has a 12ms ref rate). I would try to use the dvi connector since its a digital input anyways.

  6. Re:The Samsung 710T has basically no ghosting. on LCD Pixel Response Time Halved · · Score: 1

    yeah I've got a samsung 172x with 12ms and this thing doesn't have a hint of ghosting. Wow mitsubishi your the bomb!

  7. Re:Stunning on Hotmail Blocks Gmail Emails (and Invites) · · Score: 2, Interesting

    I personally have sent at least 8 invitations to people with hotmail accounts and 7 of them have signed up. If hotmail is blocking gmail then monkeys are lining up inside my ass and getting ready to fly.

  8. Re:Hot indeed... on Heat Insulators for Laptops · · Score: 1

    Hmm, that's interesting. I'm using CPUidle right now on my toshiba laptop and there is a huge difference in temperature from before i started using it. 20 C I might add. Oh and I might add that most mobile processors utilize the operating systems idle process, not their own. If your using windows this process is defaulted and you can't optimize it for your particular processor. Hence the reason cpuidle works so well. It's still better than buying a stupid pad.

  9. Re:Foot in the door on British Telecom Blocks Access to Child Porn Sites · · Score: 1

    Actually you are right, Britian used to be a monarchy. Since the royal party has ceased to have control over the government (hence they are just political candy) they are now classified as a semi-socialist government. Hence their health care system and parliment being in control of the government. Every government class I've taken in the last 3 years classifies britian as a semi-socialist republic.

  10. Re:Hot indeed... on Heat Insulators for Laptops · · Score: 1

    Why not use CPUidle to cool your processor and then you don't have to buy a stupid pad to carry around.

  11. Re:Foot in the door on British Telecom Blocks Access to Child Porn Sites · · Score: 2, Insightful

    I agree, if the user wished to commit the act then they should still be able to. Is it me or am I the only one in this discussion who realizes that britain is not a democracy but a socialist republic?

  12. well... on Earth's Gravitational Field Is Getting Flatter · · Score: 1

    There is evidence in the geologic record that the earth's magnetic field has actually switched polarity. This switch seems to take place about every 2000 years. It's really gonna suck when it collapses and we are bombarded by solar radiation until it switches back. Does walmart sell radiation suits?

  13. Re:Either/or on Ultra Efficient Chip Cooling Passes Boeing Tests · · Score: 1

    Um does anyone realize that 80% of icebergs and the icecaps are hidden beneath the water line? Who remembers why the titanic sank? ah yes the water line might rise as much as 600 feet at certain latitudes (that is a southern californian latitude estimate), but if Ice is expanded water then nobody really knows that if 80% is submerged and then the ice melts, maybe the ocean won't really rise at all! Of course if the ice caps melt, then we have to deal with outrageous weather conditions or dry arid land. Ah who gives a rats ass, I won't be around when it finally happens anyways. I'm just worried about surfing in the ocean and turds floating by me.
