  1. Please proof your title on Cybercriminals Has Heroin Delivered To Brian Krebs, Then Calls Police · · Score: 2

    That title is just embarrassing.

    Either of these are correct:

    Cybercriminals Have Heroin Delivered To Brian Krebs, Then Calls Police
    or
    Cybercriminal Has Heroin Delivered To Brian Krebs, Then Calls Police

    Let's at least hold our submissions up to standards of English that we should have learned before leaving grammar school.

  2. Strange title on Sad Day In FarmVille: Facebook's New Game Developer Program · · Score: 1

    What does "Facebook's New Game Developer Program Could Troub" mean?

    Is some guy called "Could Troub" the new game developer, or is there a missing ellipses in the title?

  3. Well, simple. on What's Stopping Us From Eating Insects? · · Score: 1

    The fact that they are disgusting.

  4. And this is for people who on 22nd International Obfuscated C Code Contest Starts Thursday 1 Aug 2013 · · Score: 3, Funny

    think that C isn't obfuscated enough.

  5. Re: THAT explains it! on Imitation In Dogs Matches Humans and Apes · · Score: 1

    I know a lot of people's kids who should be hooked up to a car battery rather than just an e-collar.

    Sometimes, one painful lesson is a much stronger NO that is needed.

  6. Damn dog on Imitation In Dogs Matches Humans and Apes · · Score: 2

    Still won't do my taxes.

  7. Talk to me when it's 31 Tera Bytes.

  8. Re:And they are wrong again on Google Raises Campaign Funds For Climate Change Denier · · Score: 1

    All they need to do is remember how we caused the ozone hole.

  9. What a short memory. Remember the ozone hole? on Google Raises Campaign Funds For Climate Change Denier · · Score: 1

    'we, human beings, would be able to change what He is doing in the climate.'

    Well, I guess he completely forgot about Chlorofluorocarbons and how their creation and use by us created the Antarctic ozone hole?

    So, for anyone who insists and can't fathom that our actions could possibly have an effect on something as large as the atmosphere, All they need to do is set their Wayback Machine to 1985, when this was discovered and reported in 1985.

    How can people's memories be so short?

  11. Re:still connected? on Researchers Complete New Gondwana Map · · Score: 1

    NO! They are held apart by sticks.

  12. Re:Earth on Researchers Complete New Gondwana Map · · Score: 1

    Learning: you're doing it wrong.

    Besides that one passage in that one book, there is nothing we have discovered that supports this claim. Nothing.

    And you believe in it.

    Learning: you're doing it wrong.

  13. I expected better. on Researchers Complete New Gondwana Map · · Score: 1

    Damn, that s a shitty article. Sourcing a poorly hand drawn illustration of a dinosaur that isn't even relevant to the discussion from Wikimedia commons?

  14. Great. Another chance to make bacteria resistant to something else.

  15. A blocker perhaps? on How NASA Steers the Int'l Space Station Around Asteroids & Other Debris · · Score: 1

    Can we bring up and roll out a kevlar fabric style large mesh device that will orbit in front of the station at a far enough away distance so as not to obscure the field of view and act as an absorber of some of these floating objects?

    The idea is that it could be unfurled, catch items and when it is degraded enough, it is deorbited and crashes down into an ocean.

  16. Re:LOL on Why Are Japanese Men Refusing To Leave Their Rooms? · · Score: 1

    1 million of them is even creepier.

    But you can think of it as self imposed containment.

    Creepy, nonetheless.

  17. Please proofread before posting. on Industrious Dad Finds the Genetic Culprit To His Daughters Mysterious Disease · · Score: 2

    To "his daughters mysterious disease"?

            "daughters" is plural meaning more than one daughter

    It's "to his daughter's mysterious disease".

    The daughter has the disease. It's the daughter's disease.

    Come on. This is fourth grade English. If you're old enough to use a computer, this should be second nature by now.
       

  18. Re:Misleading title on Battery Materials Made Using Crab Shells · · Score: 1

    Contents packed by weight, not by volume. Some settling may occur during shipping.

  19. I would expect on Pinholes and Plastic Wrap Make Solid Walls "Transparent" To Sound · · Score: 1

    I would expect that these walls are rather one way with the transmission of sound, as in a one way mirror.

    But, by alternating the side of the holes that are covered with plastic wrap, we could then make these walls truly two way with regards to sound transmission.

  20. Fuck articles like this on Why Your Sysadmin Hates You · · Score: 1

    Seriously.

  21. Re:.svn on Subversion 1.8 Released But Will You Still Use Git? · · Score: 1

    With SVN, you can also just copy the directory and it works just fine. Why do you have problems with this? Is something you're doing explicitly ignoring the invisible files on a copy?

  22. I still have no idea on Subversion 1.8 Released But Will You Still Use Git? · · Score: 0

    why git is any better than SVN.

    Distributed SCCSes are a really bad idea when one member of your team decides to not play nice with the rest of the team.

  23. Re:The Gillette Co. says on First Particle Comprising Four Quarks Discovered · · Score: 1

    That's clearly derivative work son. Patent infringement!
