  1. Re:Hah! on GNU Emacs Switches From CVS To Bazaar · · Score: 1

    :q!

  2. No dogs or Irish on TSA Wants You To Keep Your Seat, and Your Hands In Sight · · Score: 1

    And funded, to a large degree, by the good people of New York City. One of the benefits of the 9/11 attacks was that Giuliani suddenly decided terrorism wasn't cool anymore and the IRA, seeing its major source of funds dry up, became a lot more willing to negotiate.

    So all the hipsters in Williamsburg are going to start taking up ironic retro-prejudice and hang "No Irish need apply" signs in their store windows?

  3. ET-120 on World's First Production Hybrid Motorcycle To Hit Market In India · · Score: 2, Funny

    The Indian company Eko Vehicles has announced the development of the world's first production hybrid motorcycle, called the ET-120. In a short time this motorcycle will run on the Indian streets, offering about 280 miles per gallon with a top speed of 40 miles per hour...

    ...and will seat eight.

  4. Still relevant to our understanding on 50 Years of Domesticating Foxes For Science · · Score: 3, Insightful

    If nothing else, this is relevant in so far as illustrating how much behavior and physiology can change by the modification of a single simple and seemingly unrelated hereditary trait.

    The long and arduous road of chance modifications to the organisms genome isn't necessary to explain these expressed traits specifically, when these simple modifications can cause entire systems to behave differently. It's whole other way of looking at natural selection.

    It's not as though we haven't heard Creationists' arguments hinging upon the expectation that every step in evolution depends on a perfect storm of genetic error...

    "Most sad thing about it was that they had camps where they trained 5-6 year old boys to exercise physically and to mentally think without fear of enemy, while learning military tactics and strategies."

  6. Stamp Pogroms on Religion in Video Games · · Score: 3, Funny

    If there were people killing each other over stamps and forcing others to be collectors,

    Now there's an idea for a video game.

  7. Re:Chinaman is not the preferred nomenclature... on Chinese To Supply 600 MW Wind Farm In Texas · · Score: 1

    Just like all the African-Americans that live in Africa, or the Native-Americans that live in India? And yes, I've heard both PC terms used very incorrectly.

    As the parent poster is probably well-aware, this op/ed comic is poking fun at Anthony Comstock. In the Victorian Era, he was a postal inspector crusading against all forms of interstate vice--from pornography to "women's hygiene" pamphlets. His legacy is as the godfather of everyone who's cried "think of the children" for the last hundred years.

  14. Re:Helps, but not much ... on .CA Registrar Trying To Preempt Conficker · · Score: 5, Funny

    I saw the article today on CBC (Canada's equivalent of the BBC).

    Well, that would certainly explain the "C," wouldn't it?

  21. Fountainhead on How US Schools' Culture Stifles Math Achievement · · Score: 1

    Stop making incompetence a virtue. For reference try "The Fountainhead" by Ayn Rand. To flamers: Please note that I don't claim that Rand's philosophy is perfect. Her cultural critiques are, however, germane to the topic.

    Steer clear of that book. I raped my boss's daughter last year to get her to fall in love and marry me, but it totally backfired! Not only did she not fall in love with me, she was really pissed!
