  1. Re:Let's focus on the product on Analyzing the New MacBook Pro · · Score: 1

    That's what AppleCare is for. My MBP has had a replacement HDD, battery and fan, all covered under the extended warranty. Frankly, for a $2k machine, spending an extra $150 to get *everything* covered for 3 years is a no brainer.

  2. Re:Thought so. on Ask Slashdot: Teaching Chemistry To Home-Schooled Kids? · · Score: 1

    You're an engineer, not a scientist. See the Salem Hypothesis.

  3. Re:Wrapped C lib, I hope on SciRuby: Science and Matrix Libraries For Ruby · · Score: 1

    C library? But LAPACK is written in Fortran, you insensitive clod!

  4. Re:Obama ate a dog. on NVIDIA Unveils Dual-GPU Powered GeForce GTX 690 · · Score: 1

    Man on Dog? Oh wait, he dropped out of the race, right?

  6. Re:Where does all the money go? on Harvard: Journals Too Expensive, Switch To Open Access · · Score: 1

    Journal editors typically work for free; it's seen as a prestige issue.

  7. Re:Happy birthday GCC! on GCC Turns 25 · · Score: 1

    Maybe when it can compile F2003/F2008....

    It is has been intentional been feature ridden....

    WTF?

  9. Re:Fuck the UK on UK Plan Would Use CCTV To Stop Uninsured Drivers From Refueling · · Score: 2

    Guilty until proven innocent? No, it's the other way around; indeed, the US 'innocent until proven guilty' *comes* from UK common law. You stupid fucktard.

  10. Re:Too late on Iran War Clock Set At Ten Minutes To Midnight · · Score: 1

    Hush now - don't go confusing him with facts. All he needs to know is that Iranians = A-rabs = Bad.

    The butthurt -- it burns, my precious, oh yes IT BURNS!

  12. Re:The guy filing the suit is a muslim on Indian Court Orders Google To Remove Content · · Score: 2

    Isn't that a reflection on your countrymen, rather than on Communism?

  13. Re:What else ..? on In Small WV Town, Monsanto Faces Class-Action Suit Over Agent Orange Chemical · · Score: 1

    Citation or tits or GTFO.

  14. Ah, Qatar... on Facebook, Google Argue Against Web Censorship In India · · Score: 1

    ...land of the wise. How I yearn'st for peace from 'Here's some activity you may have missed on Facebook', as I gaze upon thy sun-kiss'd dunes....

  15. Re:(political) Shooting of someone else's shoulder on Facebook, Google Argue Against Web Censorship In India · · Score: 1

    I imagine the censorship will also encompass historical/nationalistic blasphemy -- there is a very strong ultra-nationalist movement in India, which seeks to recast (pardon the pun) the country's history as a mythic, self-serving narrative.

  16. Re:Democracy? on US Research Open Access In Peril · · Score: 1, Troll

    You Australians are funny. You all walk upside down wearing cork-strung hats, talking about "throwing another snag on the barbie", and fucking sheep and kangaroos. And as shown time and time again, you simply can't resist stereotyping citizens of other nations.

  17. Re:LAMAO! on US Research Open Access In Peril · · Score: 1

    Ah, so you missed the bit about Darrel Issa (R) being the co-sponsor. Tard.

    Wow! You impress your mom with calculus?

  19. Re:Thanks for shearing on NASA To Investigate Mysterious 'Space Ball' · · Score: 2

    Now now, the authorities in Namibia are likely to be Nazi fugitives. And thus probably rocket scientists.

  20. Re:Cell Phones. on Why the NTSB Is Wrong About Cellphones · · Score: 2, Funny

    Public transportation? Fuck off and die, you commie socialist marxist scum.

    YHBT. HAND.

  23. Exactly! on Indian Minister Seeks To Censor User-Generated Content Online · · Score: 0

    Every community needs their own individual library -- it's a basic right, especially in the sub-literate parts of India.

  24. Re:High school doesn't prepare you for college on Why Do So Many College Science Majors Drop Out? · · Score: 1

    Well said. The student who has a work ethic and can be consistently industrious often outperforms supposedly 'brighter' students. Half of the battle when I was an undergrad was learning what hard work truly meant.

  25. Re:More than Numbers, More than Money on Why Do So Many College Science Majors Drop Out? · · Score: 1

    Not only were they given a concrete goal, they were given a fair salary and benefits package, and weren't continually told that they were leeching off taxpayers. Whereas today....
