  1. Go CMU! on Hyperion Rover, 1 km On One Command · · Score: 0

    Excellent stuff Asian people, excellent stuff.

    No honestly, this new state of efficiency is kind of neccessary for future rovers- although I think two were recently just launched, so it will be awhile for these proven methods to make it there.

    Usually man power is wasted alligning panels for optimal power and this is just Real Ultimate Power.

    Well you may have an achilles heel there, I think according to the BS usnews.com rankings, psychology is a baccalaureate science degree where MIT is not #1.

    Oh I know, just making light of how often they're in the press for something quasi-revolutionary.

  4. Re:Superiority of C on Corporate Fallout Detector · · Score: -1, Offtopic

    Right on.

    I'll only hate you because you're a first year-

    Why are you a computer science student at an Ivy League?

    Has anyone seen OpenGov MIT Project ? What is it with all this uncovering business, can't the creatures at MIT leave our act of a society alone?

  7. This isn't helping on Another Beer Please · · Score: 5, Funny

    Okay- this doesn't help our obesity issues at all. We're the only country with drivethroughs every 5 feet and now we are spared the exercise of raising our hand to signal the waiting staff for a refill.

    I don't think a wink was called for there

  9. Re:This is going to cause trouble... on Petri Dish Babies, 25 Years Later · · Score: 1

    I think this is going to cause trouble later on.

    Wow what an interesting speculation- what about genetically enhanced crops?

    These produce plants that "would no otherwise be by natural process," in your words.

    Or how about vaccinations?
    The idea of immunizing a human by chemical means has only been around for 3, 4, maybe 5 generations. Don't you think resistant strains could possibly bite us in the ass a bit in the future? I think it's unfair to keep people alive for so long because of our selfishness.

    Quite a few people beat the more treatable cancers these days. Maybe they shouldn't be alive. You'd feel different if you were the survivor, but until couples who are unable to conceive become a majority, I think this is a very minor argument against the ethics of IVF- in the span of things.

    So what?

  11. Re:The One and Only - www.k_lite.tk_Kazaa_Lite@Kaz on The RIAA's Hit List Named · · Score: 1

    LOL! Okay... well as someone probably answered multiple times before, they track by IP address and not user names. The average Kazaa user usually doesn't know his or her own IP at any given moment. Posting user names is supposed to simplify this rediculousness.
