  1. Wrong on Equal Time For Creationism · · Score: 1

    Creationnism is not even a theory. It offer no testable hypothesis nor any falsifiable claims. It is therefore nothing more than an idea. Evolution DOES offer testable hypothesis (Like "random mutations occur and are passed on to the next generation") and falsifiable positions (if we found a fully-evolved human skeleton 100,000 years old that would certainly throw a wrench in it..).

  2. I demand equal time for MY theory on Equal Time For Creationism · · Score: 2, Funny

    By which the future me went back in time and ejaculated into the primordial ooze, spawning life somehow. The details don't matter. In fact, the details create a ton of contradictions and other impossibilities, but hey, who cares about silly things like "evidence" when you have faith in my theory.

  3. No.. on Hundreds of Sites Blocked By Canadian ISP · · Score: 1

    lazy workers create unions ;)

  4. Re:Still 1st-person? on Metroid Prime 3 Explored · · Score: 2, Interesting

    Come on, are you honestly telling me sidescrollers should only appear on handhelds? I don't own a DS/GBA nor do I plan to.

  5. Still 1st-person? on Metroid Prime 3 Explored · · Score: 4, Interesting

    Am I the only one longing for the olden days of 3rd-person, sidescrolling Metroids ? Even a 3d, 3rd-person platformer would please me more than a generic FPS, no matter how well done the first two were (which is debatable).

  6. Jack Thompson's Chinese now? on PK'ing Banned in China For Minors · · Score: 2, Funny

    ;) Seriously, this is ludicrous. You might as well ban dodgeball be....oh....nevermind..

  7. I don't find that interesting. on NRLB Redefines 'Your Own Time' · · Score: 3, Insightful

    I find it sickening.

  8. Wonder what else we could find.. on Looking at Birds in a Whole New Spectrum · · Score: 2, Funny

    ..using other parts of the spectrum? There's just so much we have left to learn about the world..

  9. Let me be the first to say on Interview with Pac-Man Creator · · Score: 3, Funny

    wakka wakka wakka wakka

  10. Re:Anyone Know this Number? on Cosmic Rays Could Kill Astronauts Visiting Mars · · Score: 2, Informative

    You have a 33% chance of contracting cancer at some point in your life, assuming you live an "average", complete, life. Let's ballpark an estimate 40% average survival rate for cancer (a good deal of them are treatable if detected in time) and we get 13.2%

    Send me up there.

  11. Whoa, that's gotta suck on Cosmic Rays Could Kill Astronauts Visiting Mars · · Score: 5, Funny

    Not only is it cancer, it's space cancer. That's gotta be like 10 times worse ;)

  12. Re:Did anyone else have this vision? on Discovery's Dangling Gapfiller Removed by Hand · · Score: 1

    The only vision I'm getting from that is Steve Robinson sneezing and a lot of mucus splashing on the inside of his helmet.

    It's disgusting, too.

  13. That's a relief on Discovery's Dangling Gapfiller Removed by Hand · · Score: 2, Funny

    I, for one, think that the less makeshift hacksaws we are forced use on multi-billion-dollar equipment, the better.

  14. Re:Too bad you can't talk back on Injecting Audio Into Insecure Bluetooth Handsets · · Score: 1

    The summary mentions injecting audio as well as recording it, so theoretically this shouldn't be hard to implement? Would make driving a hell of a lot more fun, I'll give you that. "GET OFF THE PHONE AND GO, THE LIGHT IS GREEN, MORON"

  15. Re:OB on Mozilla Foundation Launches Mozilla Corporation · · Score: 1

    Why? It's a perfectly cromulent word. Don't embiggen the situation excesively.

  16. Re:I can't quite decide on Mozilla Foundation Launches Mozilla Corporation · · Score: 1

    I'm not saying the software itself or the development methods will change. I'm only talking about the image it generates, or rather the lack of representation open-source could get under a corporate banner.

  17. I can't quite decide on Mozilla Foundation Launches Mozilla Corporation · · Score: 1

    if this this a good thing or a bad thing. On one hand, it makes Mozilla look like a more professionnal and organized software "company", which will help it's public image and also in negotiations but on the other it, in the long term, will diminish the visibility of the open-source movement's importance in the project's development.

  18. You have buttons on your desktop? on Windows Guru Calls For IE7 Boycott · · Score: 1

    Wow! Mine are on my keyboard, mostly.

  19. Yes...interesting similitude on Square Enix Event Revelations · · Score: 1

    Not only do both FF4 and FF5 feature a character dying, both games have it occur in roughly the same way, a desperation attack on the main villain that appears to suceed, at least partially.

  20. Comprehensive 5 word policy on Towards a Comprehensive USB Flash Drive Policy? · · Score: 2, Funny

    No USB storage devices allowed.

  21. Grrrrrrreat on The Commercial Future of Torrrents · · Score: 4, Funny

    We now have Tony the Tiger posting on Slashdot.

  22. Re:what's the airspeed of a laden swallow on Ask Microsoft's Linux Lab Manager · · Score: 1

    I'd be more interested in the airspeed of an unladen swallow, as that question seems to have been troubling us since Medieval times.

  23. Re:How far off? on View-Dependent Stereoscopic Projection · · Score: 1

    You had me until "world peace". Cynic? Nope, realist.

  24. Re:A bit too enthusiastic IMO.. on NASA's Shuttle Plans · · Score: 1

    Interesting. What would be the result of the formation of ice? Would it just look frosty or adversely affect the rocket's flight?

  25. Typo city on NASA's Shuttle Plans · · Score: 1

    Guess my "don't spellcheck" policy came back to bite me in the arse. I obviously meant "is insulating foam we're talking about" and not that gibberish.
