  1. Re:Confused on Largest US Power Storing Solar Array Goes Live · · Score: 1

    really? did you do the cost to home benefit and see just how long simply sharing the 2 billion to 70,000 homes would power their electrical needs for pert damn near the rest of those homes lives?

  2. Re:4 years on Ask Slashdot: Suitable Phone For a 4-Year Old? · · Score: 1

    the op talked a about a 4 year old - there was no differentiation on whether that was a child four years old, or a family member with the mentality of a four year old.

    From the question, I certainly hope it's the latter.

  3. st vs sw on An Animated, Open Letter To J.J. Abrams About Star Wars · · Score: 1

    Star Trek (tos) was canceled because it was too "cerebral" , Star Wars was cool in the first movie, wavered in the second movie, then flipped over and sank in order to sell toys for kids - mainly fuzzy little toy bears singing some weird disco chant.

    The following three flicks were made in order to sell jar jar and farts.

    While people can point and laugh at William Shatner's acting, I'd like the same Star Wars loving nerd defend the flatulence, or even the loose lipped jar jar as being movie excellence,

    In the sixties, Star Trek was aimed to be "Wagon Train" to the stars, While Star wars was aimed at selling little plastic toys to children.

    And exactly how expensive would it of been to design and launch a robot to fix the hubble space platform?

    Keep in mind, the humans had to adapt and overcome some issues.

    Besides, we have some more important issues to overcome first - like space junk and how to de-orbit it.

  6. with three letters MMO on Game Preview: Firefall (video) · · Score: 1

    Yeah, MMO does get my attention, and while owning a few hundred games, I refuse to play an MMO.

    The in town multiplayer cheat in diablo was the only time I tried to play with random assholes. That game lasted all of 30 seconds and of course, I lost when hit by the wall of fire.

    So when you hear "Pc Gaming is dying" and "Holy shit, there's a new MMO" , You might want to fire up a brain cell or two and think about that..

    well, my latest beef is that the dude is trying to support people that do this

    Syrian Rebels behead 40 people including a 40 day old infant..

    AQ vows to slaughter Christians as soon as Obama weakens Assad

    Syrian "Freedom Fighters" rape, brutalize, and disfigure an 8 year old child..

    Add these to the COUNTLESS other stories of "Rebels" and "Freedom fighters" who are roving in packs.. Capturing, sodomizing, and beheading Christians all throughout the ME and these are the people Obama wants to support. These are the people he want's to give billions of dollars to. These are the people he wants to give fighter jets to. These are the people he thinks should running things in the ME.

    But hey.. So they raped a bunch of children to death.. Big deal.. At least they didn't use chemical weapons right?

    The tools are yours, you can monitor, adjust, replace, revoke, and have Orwellian standards on them. That's because you employed me and provided them.

    Boiled down, Gun control is simply the policy of cutting the antlers off of the antelopes to help keep them safe from wolves.

    Thank you for your answer, but I've found in my experience that the people who fear guns cannot be reasonable in a discussion about gun control.

  25. commercials on Napster: the Day the Music Was Set Free · · Score: 1

    Napster was radio without commercials.

    I got to listen to a bunch of bands then went and bought thier music. I was buying about a disc a week.

    Then they went after napster. Metallica was the poster child, even though they actually embraced "record and share our stuff" .

    So I quit buying compact disks.I wasn't the only one.

    fast forward to the dying industry today. //waves to the net police

    If you would of embraced the idea that people hearing music and actually would d/l songs inexpensively way back then, you'd be in a much better marketing position today.

    I don't d/l your music, but I do find other artists that aren't with you - patchouli.net for one. I also hit pawn shops and resale places - 50 cents or less a disc.

    Your loss for being an idiot.
