    I mean really it's getting, If we do create intelligent beings that destroy us, well than isnt that all part of god's design?! Stop the Jesus Freak. Save Science! The more we allow people who aren't smart to set limits on the abililties and exploration of the intelligent the more we are working against our species best interest. I'm sorry if i offended anyone but I'm tired of hearing people whine about issues based on religious grounds. Can't we just be like Krypton!

  6. share!~ on The iPod Gets WiFi, Sort Of · · Score: 2, Insightful

    I've been a big fan of large size Mp3 Players, but I always wanted to be able to go up to my friend and zap him the latest albums I got, then also recieve all the albums he had...If a TI-83 can do it, then the next gen ipod should also!

  7. Crazy on On Afghanistan's Thomas Edison · · Score: 3, Interesting

    But at 17, he produced his first invention: a radio that operated without batteries. It was made out of a matchbox, wires, and headphones, and was powered by the low voltage electricity produced by a person's body.

    Thats insane! He's more Mcguyver then the Wizard of Menlo Park!

  12. why blackberry on Airport Monitoring of Travellers via Blackberry · · Score: 1

    Wouldn't it be easier to just create your own system, that would be both cost effective and safer because only you would know how it works, blackberry also holds problems because it can do more than just security checks..what happens when guards are chatting rather then security checks... While I applaud their efforts(MY IDEA TWO-THREE YEARS AGO), I must question their delivery system.

  13. Re:should work on software on Jobs Previews Displays, Tiger at WWDC · · Score: 2, Funny

    ... okay so now opinions are wrong? I'm just saying I like the software and dislike the hardware prices, is that so wrong? Why even have a replies if all your gonna do is say "STOP SHARING". I'm not going to force apple to do anything, I just would like it if they did this...They mos def will not listen to a single post, and btw Unicorns went exthinct a long time ago...weirdo. Of course, you only said that because you are an idiot, and I am not disappointed.

  14. should work on software on Jobs Previews Displays, Tiger at WWDC · · Score: -1, Troll

    Really this is just another expensive toy from apple, what i'd really like to see is an x86 port of their operating system, so this way i could have a stable, widely supported operating system and not have to purchase hardware at retail value and up.

  19. cut the fat on Are IT Certifications Meaningless? · · Score: 2, Interesting

    I like the idea behind certification, but the costs are way way to high. It's good to be able to point to something and say "This proves I know this", but when it costs over a grand to take the test, It takes the quality of the certification away.

  20. Re:Short answer... on Spokane Gets Unwired · · Score: 0, Offtopic

    You obviously missed the point of my post. El Dorado isn't a real place, at least that i know of. I meant el dorado as in the mythical city of gold....

    Great, but that still leaves the question...Where the hell is Spokane? btw It's meant as a joke, I know spokane is a city in El Dorado. pfft.

  22. Re:backfire, well we'll fire back! on Microsoft's Rush To Xbox 2 A Danger? · · Score: 2, Interesting

    what happened to Dreamcast was that Sega had huge losses because of previous failed systems, they didn't have enough capital or games to back their project up. Microsoft has had success with Xbox and I assume that Xbox2 will be a backwards compatiable, and that will ensure previous Xbox users have a home in Xbox2. And as for if PS3 comes out and its deemed better than Xbox2, then guess what, in a year or two XBox3 will be out. Its a one up game.

  23. backfire, well we'll fire back! on Microsoft's Rush To Xbox 2 A Danger? · · Score: 4, Informative

    Well I actually like the Microsoft plan to release it before their rivals, because to be honest, there are people who would buy this. If they release in between ps2 an ps3 they maybe able to pick up on the ps2 heads who are looking for the latest system. And if they are the only ones releasing during these years that will increase their profits, because there will be no competition, people will always buy whats new even if they already have something similar.

  24. Re:Someone please explain this to me. on Mozilla 1.7 Released · · Score: 1

    ... my reply to your argument I for the life of me cannot understand why you are having such a hard time with tabbed browsing. Its a mini task bar that saves time and space. Its very simple to use also. The x on the far right, will close the current tab you are using. You can use the tabs to load up websites in the background, like say you are reading an article with a link to a product. But you want to finish the article before viewing the product you can then open the product in the background and let it load while you read. Or lets say you are doing a google search on a topic, you can use tabbed browsing to open up various sources and have them load in the background while you keep looking for more sources. Then when you are ready to begin reading you can simply click the tab and everythings already loaded. And for these reasons plus so many more, you sir are a buffoon.
