  1. Re:Evolution on Did Natural Selection Make the Dutch the Tallest People On the Planet? · · Score: 1

    Precisely what I thought when I read the title.

  2. The last anniversary... on Microsoft Celebrates 40th Anniversary · · Score: 1

    Not sure if it was 25 or 30th anniversary, Microsoft contacted me for some antique computers they wanted to borrow for a photo shoot. I said sure, cough up some bucks for the rental. (I had rented some before for movie/photo shoots,etc.) They politely declined which was no surprise.

  3. We've already been invaded. on Ask Slashdot: How Could We Actually Detect an Alien Invasion From Outer Space? · · Score: 1

    With things like a parasite that can change behavior, I'd say we've already been invaded and no, we haven't noticed it. (Toxoplasmosis is one example.)

  4. Everything old is new.... on An Automated Cat Litter Box With DRM · · Score: 1

    There used to be a similar product in Canada. At that time they named it 'Catch-It'. (Worth saying out loud...) As Jack Paar used to say, "I kid you not".

  5. Well this explains everything... on We Are All Confident Idiots · · Score: 1

    Finally, an explanation for Bush, Cheney and Rumsfeld as well as why the U.S. had eight years of hell. Then again, it also explains the hopeless mess that Obama has made worse than it was when he inherited it. Oh, mark Rob and Doug Ford deciphered as well.

  6. Sounds hi-tech but...where are the girls? on How Nigeria Stopped Ebola · · Score: 1

    If Nigeria can perform this kind of hard-to-believe miracle, why can't they find the kidnapped girls? Oh right. They're being held by men with guns. Totally different scenario and, well, they're just girls.

  7. The real reason behind this... on Canadian Regulator Threatens To Impose New Netflix Regulation · · Score: 1

    This silliness can be explained by the streaming service offered by Shaw/Rogers. That's what is really behind this CRTC furor in a teapot. Perhaps S/R want to know who is watching Netflix now so they can make them an offer they can refuse...and most will. The new service 'Shomi' is dead in the water before it even is launched. Roger's hoped that by buying hockey they could make everyone go back to cable. That's not going to happen either.
