    What is uncreacable.. and more pointedly, what is creacable?

  2. Re:Stupid question on How An Astronaut Nearly Drowned During a Space Walk · · Score: 1

    I probably should have been more specific, drowning in small amounts of water, as it seems a lot of drowning victims do black out before inhaling water.

  3. Re:Stupid question on How An Astronaut Nearly Drowned During a Space Walk · · Score: 3, Insightful

    I'm guessing you've never had a sip of water go down the "wrong pipe" ?

  4. Re:Stupid question on How An Astronaut Nearly Drowned During a Space Walk · · Score: 4, Interesting

    I'd still pick "eww" over drowning, as drowning is supposedly one of the more painful ways to die.

    Nice troll.

  6. Re:"Protecting jobs" at the expense of what? on IBM Begins Layoffs, Questions Arise About Pact With New York · · Score: 2

    While I can only look on with distaste as you blame government for all ills the US is undergoing at the moment, I can enjoy a bit of schadenfreude knowing that your wonderful libertarian paradise sits on the same shelf as communism, gathering dust, both stacked in the warehouse and filed under "doesn't really understand human nature".

  7. I've got a better one on Blood Test of 4 Biomarkers Predicts Death Within 5 Years · · Score: 1, Insightful

    If a person's age is over 105 years, they're somewhere around 99% likely to die within the next 5 years.

  8. Re:Take pictures, press charges. on Woman Attacked In San Francisco Bar For Wearing Google Glass · · Score: 5, Funny

    Sheer, shear is what your mom used to use on your hair after she made you wear a big bowl like a helmet.

    Also, all the photos I've seen on him make him look like a oompa loompa.

  11. Re:He's s shill probably on Internet Shutdown Adds To Venezuela's Woes · · Score: 1

    You mean like during the Early Industrial revolution?

    It's comments like yours that make people dismiss libertarians as disconnected from reality.

  12. Re:Dogs are best on Dogs' Brains Have Human-like "Voice Area" · · Score: 1

    They tested those dogs because they were the easiest to train to sit still while in a CAT scanner.

  13. Gee.. on Are Bankers Paid Too Much? Are Technology CEOs? · · Score: 3, Insightful

    I'm guessing people are focusing on the bankers because google didn't fuck the world's economy.

    I still think it's bullshit.

  14. Re:Worthwhile keeping in mind, on How Jan Koum Steered WhatsApp Into $16B Facebook Deal · · Score: 1

    They don't make money from you, they make money from selling your data to other companies... that's why user numbers are important!

  15. Re:Why? on Asia's Richest Man Is Betting Big On Silicon Valley's Fake Eggs · · Score: 1

    Corn is a grass, but the grain is only a small part of the plant. The problem is with the grain.

    Corn does cause problems for cows, because too much starch causes overacidity in the rumen, and lots of problems with digestion, ulcers, and so forth. Corn can be eaten by cows, but it needs to be balanced with silage.. ie things with much more fiber such as the entire grass plant. That or the farmer can just give them antibiotics, and take advantage of the extra weight the much more easily digestible starches add to their animals.

  16. Re: riiiight on Killing Net Neutrality Could Be Good For You · · Score: 1

    I believe we need to find those two assholes and beat their knees to a pulp with baseball bats, then we'll need to let everyone know it's because they were pedophiles.

    That should teach them.

    I hope you shoot above the height of the dog.

  18. Re:I doubt he's in that much danger on Reporting From the Web's Underbelly · · Score: 1

    Actually it was, sending a contract killer from eastern europe, or successfully contacting one in the US, difficult and expensive. Local mafia deciding to have him whacked, pass the job off to some nobody, cheap and easy.

  19. Re:GDP on Your 60-Hour Work Week Is Not a Badge of Honor · · Score: 1

    Because a large part of MBAs are sociopathic greedy assholes, and will take every opportunity to get more profit at the expense of anyone besides themselves and their superiors?

    You're not going to be watching for quite a few years to come either.

  24. Damned if they did, more so if they didn't on Crypto Legend Quisquater Targeted - But NSA May Not Be To Blame · · Score: 3, Insightful

    Now the NSA has shown its willingness to do such things, and then deny even having the ability, they're going to get the finger of blame pointed at them a lot more, regardless of whether they deserve it, and now in a much more credible way.

  25. Re:Where is capitalism when you need it? on Kansas To Nix Expansion of Google Fiber and Municipal Broadband · · Score: 1

    In these sense that both of them only work in laboratory settings (or inside the heads of its proponents), it is decidedly similar.
