  1. Re:Wine not WINE on Wine Tasting Via Computer · · Score: 1

    Yeah, I was wondering "how could you get a taste of WINE without a computer"?

    How does one get to be a false prophet, anyway?

    I don't know, but it sounds like something good to put on a resume.

    Of course the world is heating up. The rapture is nigh!

    From a company with "Pulsar" in its name, I would have expected them to use gamma radiation.

  12. Re:in other news on Open Source Not That Open? · · Score: 1
    Formal Proof that Microsoft's software is not open:

    A set is open if for any X belonging to the set, there exists a Ball(X,delta) with delta>0 that is contained in the set. Ball(a,b) is defined as a ball of radius b at a.

    The set of Microsoft's software, however, contains no balls, so no balls are containted within the set.

    Therefore, Microsoft's software is not open.

  13. I'm sold on Open Source Not That Open? · · Score: 4, Funny

    It's a Microsoft spokesman saying it, it MUST be true!

    Yeah, and I thought Wendy's only sold girls named Wendy. Boy was I surprised.

  18. Re:Why exempt China and India (and Brazil and ...) on ESA Cryosat Launch Reported Failure · · Score: 1

    But a developing country won't begin to think about environmental standards until developed countries do. They're probably thinking the same thing. "If the US doesn't want to limit its carbon emissions, why should we?"

  19. Re:When to leave the industry.. on When to Leave That First Tech Job · · Score: 3, Funny

    What? You mean there are some people that actually READ the article before posting?

  20. Re:Simple solution on Taiwan Irked at Google's Version of Earth · · Score: 2, Interesting

    Hawai'i was annexed as a result of American-backed businessmen overthrowing the Kingdom of Hawai'i. The inclusion of Hawai'i with an aggressive power such as the United States is not exactly good.

  23. Re:Realism. on Dreadnought Demos Released · · Score: 1
    Still, I've always been interested in playing a game that effectively encompasses all of a relatively small area, rather than meandering through small parts of a huge area.

    My statistics teacher would have a had a good laugh at this. I wonder if the CRIA realizes that they're only losing credibility by these ridiculous "studies."
