  1. Well i know what my next "tv" will be on Sony Racing Apple To Develop 'a New Kind of TV' · · Score: 4, Insightful

    It's going to be a projector i connect to my existing computer. The computer can already do everything i want, pause, reverse, forward, watch what i want when i want it. If someone invents a new brilliant feature i want it's just an 'apt-get install new-brilliant-feature-i-want' away.

    Real men have edited /etc/inittab and can shut down using Ctrl-Alt-Delete.

  4. PatriotScooter on StreetScooter: The $7000 Open-Source Modular Electric Vehicle · · Score: 1

    How about calling it The de-financer of middle eastern dictatorships and creator of local jobs in the energy sector 9000?

  5. Re:The religious use facts, proof and logic too on Theologian Attempts Censorship After Losing Public Debate · · Score: 1

    However strong atheism is "not even wrong", too.

    That's simply incorrect. Any God or Gods showing themselves would disprove atheism, hence it meets the falsifiability criteria and is a valid scientific hypothesis!

    This is very unlike a God hypothesis, which could not be proven wrong even if it was! No matter how untrue it is that there is a God, it cannot be proven! No evidence can prove the lack of existence of Gods even when those Gods do not exist! This is what makes it Not Even Wrong!

  6. Re:The religious use facts, proof and logic too on Theologian Attempts Censorship After Losing Public Debate · · Score: 3, Interesting

    When true scientists are asked about God the answer tends to be: I don't know, there is no evidence one way or the other.

    A "true" scientist would of course answer that the God hypothesis is http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Not_even_wrong

    From where did you get this notion that a scientist would answer with that abomination that you suggested?

  7. Re:Nerds are not cool by definition on Is the Maker Movement Making It Cool For Kids To Be Nerds? · · Score: 1

    Also I'd love shove the guy who keeps pushing the term "Maker" in a locker.

    Would. Why?

  9. Re:They call this "greenwashing". on Apple Building Solar Farm In North Carolina · · Score: 1

    Sans subsidies, a decade or more.

    10% yearly, tax free and inflation adjusted, but you can't get your primary back. I'd take it.

  10. That's a bit of a strawman on When Having the US Debt Paid Off Was a Problem · · Score: 1

    Because if the US Gov "printed" (It doesn't have to be on paper) money and used it to pay off the federal reserve, that money would disappear into thin air again the same way that money appeared out of thin air when the federal reserve bought bonds from the US Gov.

    That would actually not change the amount of money in circulation, and would not cause hyperinflation. Coincidently, the last US president to try to do that was JFK.

  11. Unless.. on When Having the US Debt Paid Off Was a Problem · · Score: 1

    If the government sells bonds, no money is created.

    ..those bonds are bought by the federal reserve, who, get to buy bonds with money they just write into existence!

    (Look it up, that's how it works!)

  12. Re:Just seems like a well thought out list on The RMS Tour Rider · · Score: 3, Funny

  13. Bender be damned on Why Tokai No. 2 Nuclear Power Plant Survived March · · Score: 1

    the little social problem known by the acronym of NIMBY

    Oh the irony of not wanting the power plant near you on the safe stable land, but instead slightly further away on the perilous seafront.

    You'd have a point if New York City produced all it's own food and energy, and was carbon neutral.

  15. Re:It's only fair use if you go to court... on Universal Uses DMCA To Get Bad Lip Reading Parody Taken Down · · Score: 2

    Ummm ... create original material instead of trying to cash in on other people's fame?

    We could make sure no music is borrowed or stolen by having a music cast. Each member of this cast would have to grow up in a complete music void, and start from scratch (banging two sticks together or whatever). Sure, we would no longer have a culture and all music would sound like perfect shit, but hey, a small price to pay for making sure all music is original!

  16. Re:You think the housing collapse was bad on US Student Loans Exceed $1 Trillion · · Score: 1

    the government just prints some money and bails out the banks.

    That's not how it works. The only way for the goverment to get money is to borrow it at interest, from a private bank deceptively called The Federal Reserve. (Look it up, i'm not kidding!)

    Heck, why not fill the little bugger with explosives while we're at it?

    Bad idea, it would make retrieving it dangerous.

    I wasn't a fan of the man in the past half-decade. But before that, he was a pretty awesome guy

    He was a lot like Elvis in that regard.

  21. Re:Soon, the high value targets will not be people on US Military Moving Closer To Automated Killing · · Score: 2

    You will be in a small cell and be fed corn through a tube, when you have become fat enough, the bottom of your cell will open, you will fall down into a boiler, and your fat will be tuned into fuel.

  22. Re:Medical tourism. on Wealthy Americans Turning To Europe For Medical Treatment · · Score: 1

    My brother got a large amount of medical work done in Thailand, from one of the top clinics in Bangkok.

    And I have never met anyone in Europe who thinks it is cool, even among the most anti-American people I know.

    For the same reason you never meet anyone who pees in the shower either.
