  1. Re:so... up to 100 customers then? on Vivos Founder Builds an Underground City Where You Can Ride Out the Apocalypse · · Score: 1

    Obligatory XKCD regarding percent-based growth figures: http://www.xkcd.com/1102/

  2. Am I really the first to point this out? on Artificial Wombs In the Near Future? · · Score: 2

    Let's hear it for reproduction without all the negative effects on your woman's lady parts!

  3. Isn't saying "the same should apply to boys", and assuming the reader understands why, relying on a similar level of sense as the conclusion of the article itself?

  4. An informal letter? on Judge Rules Against China In 'Green Dam' Suit · · Score: 1

    "The Chinese side hereby expresses strong concern over it and firmly rejects it" Does that really work in China?

  5. Tying it all together on Advice On Teaching Linux To CS Freshmen? · · Score: 1

    I found that learning about the toolchains, the reasons for having sources (or just headers) available on-system, and compiling my own apps from sources has had the effect of really showing me (and others, who I've had go through these concepts) how the openness of linux ties in with programming and creating software.

  6. Re:Take it to a uni on The Story of My As-Yet-Unverified Impact Crater · · Score: 4, Insightful

    But if an expert told him, it wouldn't be unverified... or a crater, and thus not newsworthy.

  7. Apogee's "Monster Bash" on Lost Online Games From the Pre-Web Era · · Score: 0, Offtopic

    It was so good! I remember buying it at some gas station or something when we were on vacation out west as a little kid. They had a buncha Apogee-era 3.5" disk packs and I remember thinking the packaging looked awesome. :) http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Monster_Bash

  8. Wasn't this fixed during beta? on Is StarCraft II Killing Graphics Cards? · · Score: 1

    The blue quote from the article was originally presented in beta, as a response to the issue which I believe was covered on /. at the time. Anyway, they said they fixed it in the patch after the issue came up and was addressed by said blue poster.

  9. Really? on EA Launches Ultima-Based Browser Game · · Score: 1

    Purchase 13000 Diamonds 99.99 USD lol

  10. IEEE 1541 Recommendations on Ubuntu Will Switch To Base-10 File Size Units In Future Release · · Score: 2, Interesting

    I thought the reputable mfgs had already jumped on the bandwagon where they use kibi-/mebi-/etc prefixes to denotes powers of 2? See IEEE 1541. Following this standard, the change makes sense. Either that or they should have switched to the binary prefixes.

  11. Workaround coming? on Comcast's New Throttling Plan Uses Trigger Conditions, Not Silent Blocking · · Score: 1

    So how long til someone creates a workaround that maximizes net bandwidth (not just setting hard caps on your speeds) while avoiding tripping the triggers? First seems not too hard to avoid, but the 2nd...
