  1. Re:Do a Buzz Alrdrin on Should NASA Try To Refute Crackpots? · · Score: 1

    lol, if Nasa were so into messing with our heads. Why don't they just use modern hollywood magic to whip up another moon landing. Hell, they could do it for free, just download some production software from a warez site and pull a moon landing out their arse. Why not through some aliens in there too.

  2. Re:Obligatory... on Kazaa: Happy In the Global Legal Briarpatch · · Score: 1

    Everyone should just use IRC, find out which IRC channels works for them and stick there, share there. Keep things organized.

  3. to me its on What Makes Great Science Fiction? · · Score: 1

    any story that can make you believe in a totally abstract concept using scientific data and/or visual effects.

    some people might prefer to see the technological advancements of the future.

    other people might get off simply seeing the human race survive the destruction of the earth.

  4. if it compromises security issues for the country, on Taiwan Asks Microsoft To Open Windows Source · · Score: 1

    If Microsofts monopoly compromises against security issues for a country I dont see why not. As of now if a country has the right to go about any means necessary and any means possible to protect itself then why should something as trivial as source code get in the way. Even if Bill Gates himself has to go to Taiwan to sit in a dark room and solve the problem for them.

  5. Re:Obligatory no-registration link on China Concerned About Internal Copyright Infringers · · Score: 1

    If hollywood doesn't want its movies pirated why dont they wait a couple weeks before they ship the movies to asian countries.

    Other than that there is no serious searching for recording devices here in america so can we really expect other countries to do this.

    However, i'm curious if they are searching for entrance on all movies or just the chinese ones.

  6. Re:But should the rules be changed? on ISP Sued Over Suspended Email Account · · Score: 3, Insightful

    Its about time someone is making some noise over this.

    This has been the trend for far too long. There needs to be more standards in the way ISPs handle peoples personal email much like postal mail. If postal mail can be returned to sender why can't e-mail? If I cancel my account with my ISP because I am unhappy with the service why do I not have the option to have my email forwarded to my NEW email address, just like postal mail. Why? Becuase this is just a method of keeping you stuck with that ISP. How difficult would it be to offer this service? Seriously, it would be EASILY done.

    I dont know if she should or could win this case but I hope she does. I think she is right and I think there definitely needs to be standards and laws in place for this effective ASAP.

  7. Re:Too Easy on Google Sued over Page Ranking · · Score: 2, Insightful

    I never heard of SearchKing before reading this. Maybe this is a new way of advertising.

  8. Re:Well... this is stupid. on First Human Clone Eight Weeks Along · · Score: 1

    you have an interesting view on this but I think they have to start somewhere. Perhaps you're right, maybe they have too many questions that need answers to be trying on humans. I would think they would test it to no end until the only way to find out more information was to test on a human. This is what I would hope from scientists of today.

  9. i'm quite disappointed in slashdot.org on First Human Clone Eight Weeks Along · · Score: 1

    and how this news was presented. How can you quote such a ridiculous statement in the headline as "Now how long until we can buy our own clones?"

    That is total ignorant stupidity.

    Of course nothing like this will EVER happen. Why stir the pot, obviously someone has such a flawed view of this subject and is aware of this to the point that he must pull idiotic statements out of his ass to feed the fire of mindless activists. Get real. ok?

  10. OK on Apartments for Techies? · · Score: 1

    I need a room to put my computer in, where the sun doesnt obstruct the vision of my screen. I need somewhere to piss and shit and shower. I need a door with a mailbox long enough that a pizza will fit through it so I can pay for my pizza without the pizza man falling wiitness to my grotesque atrophying body.

    oh yeah and room to fit some huge ass speakers to listen to KYUSS all the WHILE.

    How about virtual reality room,...security system that can be monitored from your computer. When someone buzzes to enter the your building,.. you can let them in without getting up from your computer and also view them on your monitor. Maybe instead of buzzing the door open you can play a funny little customized sound. Soundproof walls so I can play games without headphones. How bout USB chords wired throughout the unit so that you can control household devices from sitting your ass at the computer. Set your alarm from the computer incase you forget, lock the dooor, turn on and off lights. A small keyboard and monitor beside the shitter. Thats all for now.

  11. Re:Identical twins. on First Cloned Human Embryo · · Score: 1

    So if they have the same DNA, does that mean that they would go through out the same birth defects that a cloned child would?

    I see it like this. Just because a child might not live as long he still has the right to live and therefore still has the right to be born.

    If there is someone willing to adopt a cloned child. WHy not?

    People have this misconception that the child is going to be a freak which just isn't the case, its a normal human child just concieved differently.
