  1. Re:Slackware 2.0.12 on X Window System Turns 30 Years Old · · Score: 2

    And the best part is... it still works!

  2. Re:"Human on Mars by 2025..." on Elon Musk: I'll Put a Human On Mars By 2026 · · Score: 1

    At least it's a start....

  3. Re: thankX on Russian RD-180 Embargo Could Boost American Rocket Industry · · Score: 1

    Problem is that the Soyuz hasn't had any loss of crew since 1971! I'd call that a lot more reliable than the space shuttle. And 5 times more NASA astronauts have died in space-related accidents than Russian/Soviet kosmonauts.

  4. Re: Mother Russia... on Getting the Most Out of the Space Station (Before It's Too Late) · · Score: 1

    More or less at the same coordinates as the american one...

  7. Re:Laughable what? on Report: Space Elevators Are Feasible · · Score: 1

    Some might think that "it is not feasible at the moment" menas that we're laughing at it...

  8. Re: It's a status thing on Your 60-Hour Work Week Is Not a Badge of Honor · · Score: 1

    Minimum pay for a government worker In US is around $10 at the moment I think. A 10 year-old won't even take out the trash for that kind of money here in Norway.... Working 40 hours only tells you how much he is working, not what he earns. Here in Norway, flipping burgere at McDonald's will get you $60,000 a year...

  9. Re: Tesla naming like mercedes on Elon Musk, Tesla CTO Talk Model X Details, Model S Upgrades · · Score: 1

    The C-class is not crap if you look at similar cars in the same price range.

  10. Re:Hmm on UK Government May Switch from MS Office to Open Source · · Score: 1

    There is nothing in my day-to-day job that prevents me from using Libre/Open Office, except from corporate policies. Your tasks have to be highly specialised before it's an requirement to use MS Office.

  11. Re:Pre-ordering food? on 20,000 Customers Have Pre-Ordered Over $2,000,000 of Soylent · · Score: 1

    They agreed to the more time in writing when they paid for it. Also - it's still early 2014 a month or two from now.

  12. Re:Meanwhile, SETI has decoded a message . . . on Hubble Discovers Water Plumes Over Europa · · Score: 1

    I've seen the need for space-faring ROVs and AUVs for a few years now. Not convinced the management yet though.

    Erh, 7! Damn you autocorrect!

  16. Re: 2 Words on Electric Cars: Drivers Love 'Em, So Why Are Sales Still Low? · · Score: 1

    And also Teslas. Just drove past the local shop, and there were 7 of them waiting for their new owner outside. I see more Teslas on my way home than I see Fords now. Norway is going electric!

    Challenge for yourself: Google "Telemark batallion"

  18. Re: Not this time, Sony on PlayStation 4 Released · · Score: 2

    The customer initiated the removal of the feature. I still have a PS3 with otherOS. Noone has taken it from me.

  19. Re: Not this time, Sony on PlayStation 4 Released · · Score: 1

    Keep it, just don't tell us about it! One less person in the queue is all you are.

    I think you just underestimated how many need an electric car.

  23. Problems with comments are that they are indexable.

    You got that wrong, it's the people that watches fox news that do not do the research.
