  1. Creating demand? on Fighting Invasive Fish With Forks and Knives · · Score: 1, Interesting

    could that possibly go the wrong way because you create demand so later there will be an incentive to actually put _more_ invasive fish into the habitat?

  2. how about ... on How to Maintain Lab Safety While Making Viruses Deadlier · · Score: 1

    not trying to create fucking deadly viruses in the first place?

  3. a little inequality is not the problem on The Benefits of Inequality · · Score: 1

    too much is. if people die because others hoard all the resources (which is essentially whats happening now) then you have a problem.

  4. Re:Must Google stick with US satellites ? on Google's Satellites Could Soon See Your Face From Space · · Score: 1

    im pretty sure you are also not allowed to _use_ images with higher resolutions

  5. Since when is nuclear renewable? on Brookings Study Calls Solar, Wind Power the Most Expensive Fossil Alternatives · · Score: 1

    Its quite clearly a limited resource, and leaves us with heaps of radioactive waste that nobody wants.

  10. COBOL programmer on Ask Slashdot: Future-Proof Jobs? · · Score: 1

    because everyone said they'll decommission those system tens of years ago and they are still live and kicking ... and usually running in places where the money is, like banks :D

  11. on the bright side ... on Chinese Couple Sells Children To Support Online Game Addiction · · Score: 1

    they were obviously not so much addicted as to not even sleep with each other any more ;)
    nah, seriously, lock those people up good and take away all gadgets.

  12. works only on gas on Rocket Scientist Designs "Flare" Pot That Cooks Food 40% Faster · · Score: 1

    so everyone who does not have a gas stove does not care (which is pretty much everyone I know) - much to my dismay because I like gas stoves :(

  13. Re:glad i stopped gaming... on Gamestop's Ludicrous Idea: Require Preorders To Unlock Custom Game Content · · Score: 1

    douchey restriction management

  14. Like from anything else on Normal Humans Effectively Excluded From Developing Software · · Score: 1

    a) there are no "normal" humans
    b) there are also tons of other places where this applies, and applies even to a higher degree - like professional sports (both mental like chess or physical), or math, or philosophy, or research, or art, or teaching (unbelievable how many "teachers" suck at what they do), or ...

  15. Re:One of the on A Tour of One of the World's Only Underwater Labs With Fabien Cousteau · · Score: 1

    I esp. love "one of the only" ... so is there multiple, or is there only this one, or is your logic just fucked up?

  16. "I am the CEO / CFO / Sales Director" ... dude, you are 11, calling yourself a CxO is just lame. Also who of you does the coding with your fancy titles?

  17. One outside the US on Ask Slashdot: Hosting Services That Don't Overreact To DMCA Requests? · · Score: 1

    simple as that ... because why the heck should anyone in country X care about a DMCA request?

  18. Forward and Backward are just definitions on Is Time Moving Forward Or Backward? Computers Learn To Spot the Difference · · Score: 1

    it only depends on the way you look at things

  19. Re:The problem is not switch speed on How Vacuum Tubes, New Technology Might Save Moore's Law · · Score: 1

    I think you forgot about the fact that while individual electrons travel at c. 1m/s, electric field waves propagate at (almost) the speed of light - 300 million times faster.

    uhm, jeah, but the speed of light is still limited (and esp. so if not in vacuum) ... eg @3ghz your light gets 0.1m in vacuum (which I would interpret as the path in your chip should not be longer). Also at these frequencies antennas are damn small so it really sucks if you need two parallel straight lines ;)

  20. The problem is not switch speed on How Vacuum Tubes, New Technology Might Save Moore's Law · · Score: 2

    but that with increasing clock speed the size of your chip is limited (as electricity can only travel that far in a given amount of time) -> can't keep your chip synchronized -> need to think of new ways how to sync everything / if there are alternatives.

  21. Who cars? Want Kindle! on Amazon Announces 'Fire Phone' · · Score: 3, Interesting

    I finally want a new kindle with a high-dpi e-ink display, everything else I could not give two fucks about.

    if you stand at the pole?

  24. Re:Hm.... on Group Demonstrates 3,000 Km Electric Car Battery · · Score: 1

  25. who really cares on The Disappearing Universe · · Score: 1

    we didnt even leave our spec of dust (in a sustained way), let alone our solar system or universe.
