  1. Baby Steps Towards Fitness on Getting Back Into Shape While At The Office? · · Score: 0

    Sitting in my cube, I know exactly how you feel. There are not many things you could do in the cude and not get wierd looks. One thing you can do is stretch (http://www.lib.msu.edu/ergomsu/stretch.htm).
    Stretching alone has been shown to increase muscle tone, and will prepare your muscles for when you do have time to work out.

    Other than that, perhaps running or walking during lunch hour or maybe riding your bike to work would help.

    Champ, if you RTFA you would know that the service does not take effect until activated by a link sent via the confirmation email.

  5. Re:Frankenfood on The Rights of GM Humans · · Score: 0

    A true tragedy was when an African country decided not to take an American donation of tons of corn because the environmentalists convinced the government of that nation that the genetically altered food was poison.
    Although it was definitely a tragedy, the pivotal issues were money and power, not a belief of poison. The government of Zambia rejects GM food because the modified DNA sequences are proprietary information and subject to royalties if Zambia ever has enough food to export. Future power is also at stake as the Zambian working class obtains more stable crops and becomes less reliant on centralized tyrants. The United States also used this as an opportunity to unknowingly expand the world use of GM foods, better for the US economy.

  6. MPAA + Microsoft = ??? on MPAA, Microsoft Testify Piracy Funds Terrorism · · Score: 0

    *there seems to be some connection between illegal copying and organized crime*

    Yeah . . I downloaded a copy of 'The Godfather" last night.

    This is so idiotic, people engage in piracy because it does not cost anything. No payments means no profits. Unless of course they consider the broadband providers to be the organized crime.

  7. NY Times Registration on AOL's Mystro TV vs Tivo? · · Score: -1, Troll

    Why do you allow posts of news stories to websites that require registration? Surely there is no shortage of news sources on the web. I bet that any /. reader could find any story in at least triplicate if asked. As proprietors of this site surely you get several sources for each story. So why must you post news that I have to donate time and personal information to access when you could link to any of a multitude of other sources that would not require such intrusive regulation?

  8. Planted Items on Junkyard Wars Wants You! · · Score: 1

    Junkyard Wars is a cool show, but there is always a planted item that takes away from the raw inventiveness of the show. For example, the other night the teams built full-size, remote controled cars to battle each other, and both teams found several working servo-motor in the trash heap. How many ordinary junkyards have 6 separate working servo motors?

  9. What about Punch Out? on NES PC · · Score: 1

    I still play my NES and after 10+ years the games I still play must be among the best but have not been mentioned yet. When I am alone, Mike Tyson's Punch Out gets the most tick while RC ProAm rules in a crowd. How many people have beaten Tyson?
