    So, does this qualify for the rest of the price money from that lindows founder?

  4. Re:Why humanoid design? on Fujitsu To Ship Linux Powered Robot in July · · Score: 1

    Well, nature took a few million years to come up with this design, and it's actually a pretty good one. Also, all those household appliances (and the houses themselve) are made with the appropiate interfaces.

  5. logic? on Texas Rep Wants To Jail File Traders · · Score: 4, Interesting

    If you drive drunk and kill someone, you get 2 years, if you share 500 mp3s you get 3. Sounds fair to me.

  6. al gore _did_ invent the internet on Al Gore Joins Apple's Board Of Directors · · Score: 3, Insightful

    Well, maybe he didn't invent it, but he actually was one of a few politicians actively promoting the internet.

    Therefore we should be thankful instead of always making fun of that one statement he once made.

  7. Gelileo on U.S. May Reduce Non-Military GPS Accuracy · · Score: 1, Flamebait

    Mark it down as off topic, but Zoran Djinjic, one of the great democreatic leaders was killed today.

    I hope they give him the Nobel Peace Price posthumely.

    They actually found out, that MS Update sends out all the data that (according to MS) it is supposed to send out.

    In related news: green mice were found to be green and mice.

    ... come on people, let's all post some really obvious thinks that we would like to patent in order to show how ridiculous this patent is *yawn*.

  22. Re:Where is the Honda S2000 on 10 Techno-Cool Cars · · Score: 1

    because its (a) two years old and (b) just another gas-sucking penis-replacement.
    The really cool cars are those that come up with new ideas, like drive-by-wire (joystick) or HUDs. You know, stuff that will never be useful but look really cool at your high school reunion

  23. Re:Asperger's on Advice You Would Give to Your 12 Year-Old Self? · · Score: 1

    yeah, there is a medical term for every kind of stupidity. That's why no one is responsible for his actions any more.

  24. Re:Cartoons on Internet-Created Free Audio Dramas? · · Score: 3, Interesting

    As someone currently action in a Macbeth-Production, I can reassure you, that it is absolutely impossible to do stuff like this without actually meeting. So much of the later experience for the audience just has to develop between the actors before. There are times where the actors actually almost start to fight each other, because they disagree how a single line of text should be interpreted. If you let everybody do his thing and then mix it together later you will have n different versions of a single play.
