  1. Sci-fi as we know it is dieing.... on TrekUnited Campaign Ends · · Score: 1

    Think about it. Star Trek is canceled next month and Star Wars has it's last movie out next month with no new movies in the works. I think May of 2005 will be a sad day in sci-fi history.

  2. with all the trailers out there... on Revenge of the Sith TV Spots Revealed · · Score: 1

    I havee seen at least 6 or 7 trailers each with different scenes in them. I feel like I have already seen 10% of the movie now but its not like I am FORCED to watch them but I do.

  3. Open is good on XGI, VIA Release Open Source Drivers · · Score: 2, Interesting

    I wish all other hardware companies did this.

  4. Re:This is frustrating... on Global DNA Project to Study Human Ancestry · · Score: 1

    True I have heard of this but a DNA study of Neanderthal Man showed he was not a direct ancestor of modern man but a distant cousin. Neanderthal and modern humans may have interbred but the ones who did didn't survive to have descendents that live today. So some of the hominids that interbred may have been sterile children(like a mule) or didn't have any living descendents.

    To study the DNA of 100,000 people would require a very large undertaking. The same recources could used to hit birds with one stone so to speak.

  6. Re:dangerous on Global DNA Project to Study Human Ancestry · · Score: 1

    I wasn't talking about that. I believe in evolution. archeological evidence dates back to 100,000 years of the first modern humans in africa. Much older then previously thought. Meaning we co-existed with other hominids for a long while. You could still trace the DNA back to what the first human was like. Any further then that then you would have to trace DNA back to bacteria.

    Dangerous because it might effect your faith? There is no where in the bible that says for a fact Adam is five thousand years old but there is evidence that "Adam" (First modern Human we all descend fom) is at least 100,000 years old.

  8. DNA Study on Global DNA Project to Study Human Ancestry · · Score: 1

    Maybe they could use this study to help cure diseases or maybe better yet help the masses of over a billion people in poverty.

  9. It's PG-13 for the Midichlorians on Revenge of the Sith Officially Rated PG-13 · · Score: 1

    I think it's PG-13 bcause of a possible flashback scene as the Emperor as Anakins father. Being that red is associated with the deep dark side of the force. More midichlorians would have been deposited if pushed firmly enough. The Emperor also seems very experienced with a lightsaber from the trailers. It is this experience that made the film PG-13 but not rated R since he doesn't go all the way.

  10. Re:I hope it's not for violence on Revenge of the Sith Officially Rated PG-13 · · Score: 1

    Why would we want to see her naked. She has no tits to speak of.

  11. Mnnnnn... on Mandrakesoft Changes Name to Mandriva · · Score: 1

    Mandrake hard? No, they are soft. That's they are Mandiva!

  12. When you think about it..... on CherryOS Goes Open Source · · Score: 1

    I guess this means CherryOS is no longer a virgin after May 1st.
