  1. Re:One wonders... on WikiLeaks Publishes Afghan War Secrets · · Score: 1

    He's been in the US military for crying out loud!

  2. Re:re Triple GDP on WikiLeaks Publishes Afghan War Secrets · · Score: 1

    That won't change the ideology

  3. Re:Killing other people does not solve problems. on WikiLeaks Publishes Afghan War Secrets · · Score: 1

    It's still just removing the problem, not solving it.

  4. Re:Still doing that? on Superheroes vs. the Westboro Baptist Church · · Score: 1

    (Atheists often think that Christian == fundamentalist, which simply isn't true.)

    All the good ones are.

    The rest is just watering down their religion for general acceptance!

  5. Re:The Big B finally weighs in. on Boeing Shows Off First Commercial Spacecraft · · Score: 1

    It's only cargo not crew (yet).

    However, this capsule from Boeing is designed to be able to ride on top of a Falcon 9, so I don't see any reason for Space X to be "hopping mad" at all!

  6. Re:'Bout time on Apple Offers Free Cases To Solve iPhone 4 Antenna Problems · · Score: 2, Insightful

    Well - it got know pretty fast, so the .05% that reported it, is the number of people which don't read the news. The rest didn't bother when they saw it was already an issue.

  7. Re:Euro on India's New Rupee Symbol Won't Show On Computers · · Score: 1

    But the British keyboards are way off compared to my Scandinavian keyboard!

    Dear USA,

    We have loads of free stuff paid for by the taxes.

  9. Re:Unreadiness for Spills on BP Claims Gulf Well Has Been Stopped · · Score: 1

    Don't blame everything on BP - there were a couple of American companies involved as well. But hey - if you can blame the foreigner, do! It is however a known fact, that BP is one of the worst when it comes to maintenance, not only in GOM but we have the same issue in the North Sea as well.

    Just remember one thing - BP wasn't alone when it happened, but they solved it by themselves.

  10. Re:Missing the point on Pacific Trash Vortex To Become Habitable Island? · · Score: 1

    "People in the west" is not all americans. There are actually people (and governments) working to solve issues like this, to make sure we can continue leading the lives we currently live.

  11. Re:I have to say on Open Source Hardware Definition Hits 0.3 · · Score: 2, Interesting

    I think you are confusing open source with free as in beer

  12. Re:If all they do on Ballmer Says Microsoft Is 'Hardcore' About Tablets · · Score: 1

    Which says more about your users than anything else!

  13. Re:In Other Words... on Senators Want Big Rocket Instead of New Tech, Commercial Transportation · · Score: 1

    Troll? No way! This is a valid observation of politics, and how the republicans do something, while say something else!

    If you disagree, fine, but this is not trolling!

  14. Re:In Other Words... on Senators Want Big Rocket Instead of New Tech, Commercial Transportation · · Score: 1, Troll

    It's actually a perfect example as to how it is being done in social democracies.

  15. Re:Impressive on Climategate and the Need For Greater Scientific Openness · · Score: 1

    Yeah, because taking parts of it out of context had never happened before!

  16. Re:Only 90% on Dell Says 90% of Recorded Business Data Is Never Read · · Score: 1

    Dell delivers servers with this system. It's nothing new. We've used it the last 3-4 years.

  17. It's not like this is something new on Dell Says 90% of Recorded Business Data Is Never Read · · Score: 1

    Dell has been doing this for our company the last 3-4 years now.

    Patents can and do work other places in the world, just no in US

  19. Re:Square Wheels on No iPhone Apps, Please — We're British · · Score: 1

    So the target audience for the app are those least likely to be able to afford an iPhone to use it!

    And they're still the most likely people to by them, according to personal observations on the tube.

  20. Re:Maybe something everybody can use? on No iPhone Apps, Please — We're British · · Score: 1

    [...]and last time I looked that is not one of the US states.

    Correct - US is a UK colony!

  21. Re:Mensa is packed with idiots on Chinese Company Seeks US Workers With 125 IQ · · Score: 1

    Yeah! Let's all take their test drunk, and then refuse to join!

  22. Re:a house from new TV sets on How To Build an Open Source House? · · Score: 1

    Because the people that build the houses want to be paid in proper money - the same goes for the ones selling you the stuff it's made of and the guy that used to own the land you wanted to build on.

    Then there's all the hassle with getting permits etc.

    And in the end, people compare that cost against buying one that's already build, and actually pays more, because they can move in in a couple of weeks.

  23. Re:As someone with an architecture background... on How To Build an Open Source House? · · Score: 1

    I just spent 10 minutes on one of those

    There is no way I want to live in one of them!
