    I think we already realized that that is a bad way to do things. A more superior race will have better habits than ours.

    Perhaps a woman was injured and the paramedics need to remove her clothes to treat her. Now, not only was the gory video public, but she was stipped of her clothing. For the whole world. You know ogrish.com will post it the next day.

    The slashvertisements are really starting to become annoying. I think I'll stop reading slashdot for now, while the rest of you who stay behind can work on fixing the problems here. I might come back in 6-12 months to see if the site has it's act together. There are so many places for this kind of news that I won't even stick around for the comments.

  9. Re:Airborne bacteria? on Earth Life Possibly Could Reach Titan · · Score: 1

    discussing pansermia is like discussing god: stop pulling insane ideas out of your ass. stick with the concept that the most simplest solution is probably what happened. that is: life began and evolved on earth. there is no fossil or genetic evidence that life came from god or another planet. if life was alien to earth, then why is it so well adapted to this environment and why is there no evidence of adaptation to it's previous environment?

  10. Re:Hey, that's my idea! More things to consider... on Smart Elevators Coming to Seattle · · Score: 1

    Yes but a phrase is a phrase in any language. Instead of counting dings, you count phrases (which are numbers for that floor). That way blind people who actually speak the language will understand while those who don't will just count. BTW: how likely is it that a blind person wouldnt speak the local language? as if life wasnt hard enough already.

  11. Re:Look guys: intelligent design is NOT SCIENCE on Slashback: OpenDocument, Intelligent Design, More DRM · · Score: 1

    Your sarcasm is misplaced. The big bang and evolution are indeed facts as they are observations. We can observe that all matter diverges from a single point. We can observe how varying traits are benefitial or harmful, leading to improvment in the progression of life. They simply cannot be wrong, they are observations. I think you go a step furthur and assume these two observations imply the begining of the universe and life. That's not the case. We dont know where the big bang or life came from and we will never know. But what happened afterwards is fact. Also, since we don't know or will never know you cannot attribute it to a higher power. You weren't there to observe that and neither were the men who wrote it so. Science does not make a conculsion about this one way or the other. It does however state that there is no evidence of a higher power's involvement or lack of. Just leave it at that, and don't start pulling gods out of your ass.

  12. Re:Wonder how long it'll be... on US Passports To Recieve RFID Chips · · Score: 2, Interesting

    I think all of you need to brush up on RFID. It doesn't transmit your personal info, it transmits a serial number linked to your personal info. So if you sat at the airport you would gather a bunch of serials but getting the personal info to go along with it will require more hacking of the government data bases. Ok so you're scared of that? Well guess what? If that were the case, it can already happen today. So you should have been protesting all these years!!! The only change with RFID will be that the hacker knows you were at that airport at that time. But then again he could have already known so by looking at your face, if he was so inclined. Burn the faces!!

    Microsoft has the resources to provide everyone with enough bandwidth and not coke the servers. Mozilla, on the other hand, is a non profit which scavenges for third party mirrors. There is a difference. Plus you didnt pay, so shut up =)

  15. Re:Why would you attack Google? on French News Agency Sues Google News · · Score: 1

    One thing that google does that I dont agree with is stealing graphics from sites. They may pick up a pic from one news site but the most relavant link displayed for that story may be from another. Not all sites display graphics so google will borrow ones for sites that don't contain them.

  18. Re:What I find most interesting about this... on The Eye: Evolution versus Creationism · · Score: 1

    Im in university now and i have had my entire education in california. I remember the professors would always have to carefully tip toe around creationism when we discussed evolution. Cali is pretty lax about what we get taught so as long as you spend a minute mentioning creationism you can go on and lecture for a week about evolution. In a private convo with my professors i found out that it was entirely different in other states. Middle america and near the east it would have been completely opposite where you would get complaints from parents if their kids were told about Darwin. They would have to be informed when such a discussion will occur and possibly sign a waiver, or the kid will be forced to leave the classroom while the others learned evolution!

  22. Re:multiplayer? on Doom 3 Creators Huddle, Address Clamoring Press · · Score: 1

    I dont get it..why would lighting bring the server load up? Servers dont render lighting. Plus, if they wanted 4 players for best gaming experience then they should have set the default to 4 and have a little arrow next to it so the rest of us can bump it up to a 32 or 64 player orgy. Who cares if current servers cant handle the load, they will be able to handle it in 6-12 months easily. I know it's mod-able but geeze there'll probably be one or two admins who apply the mod while the rest of the lazy bastards just leave it as is.

    Another good idea out of many in this story. I cant believe the number of times I've opened 10+ images in new tabs to view later only to find out they used some javascript crap. Now im left with 10 blank tabs and probably lost the original linking page. Also when you open a new tab it would be helpful if the back button went to the original page that opened the tab instead of being disabled and therefore useless.
