  1. the monkey's are afraid on Another Way the LHC Could Self-Destruct · · Score: 4, Insightful

    can we please stop grunting like frightened chimps every time we are on the verge of a new scientific break through?

  2. Re:We're scientists, trust us. on Another Way the LHC Could Self-Destruct · · Score: 1

    neither are they. if they can build it i'm betting they have a pretty good handle on what might occur.

  3. crap attitude on the part of employers on The Stigma of a Tech Support Background · · Score: 1

    i think this is typical of HR types. words can't explain how much i despise them, this kid WANTS to work so he took a job "lower" than his qualifications. do you know how RARE that kind of work ethic is these days?

  4. pity JS is crap to start with on Microsoft and Nokia Adopt OSS JQuery Framework · · Score: -1, Troll

    it's slow, buggy, and prone to being abused. why are we still using it?

  5. Re:Every time I read an article like this on OS X On the MSI Wind · · Score: 2, Insightful

    it would mean they would end up in the same boat as MS, and everyone would suddenly realize windows isn't evil and that MS is just a software company, not the devil.

  6. Re:Why Bother? on O3B Details Plan for Satellite-Based Bandwidth For Africa · · Score: 2, Insightful
    let me guess, thats your way of saying the white man done it?

    seriously that excuse isn't going to cut it forever. Crime and corruption committed by black people to other black people is NOT the rest of the worlds fault no matter what twisted logic you try apply.

  7. Re:Why Bother? on O3B Details Plan for Satellite-Based Bandwidth For Africa · · Score: 1

    probably dig the copper up - hence why laying copper or fiber is a bad idea. what point at you trying to make here?

  8. say hello to the next generation of call centers. on O3B Details Plan for Satellite-Based Bandwidth For Africa · · Score: 4, Insightful

    you know what all this bandwidth will be aimed at don't you, given the super cheap labor in africa. call centers and telemarketers. not necessarily a bad thing as it'll bring wealth into the nations that embrace it, but incredibility annoying to everyone else.

  9. Re:4 Billion years old? I don't think so. on World's Oldest Rocks Found · · Score: 1

    catholic's are a moderate group, it's the baptists and the like that are scary.

  10. the clueless comment. on Australian ISPs Claim Net Neutrality Is an 'American Problem' · · Score: 1

    australia is a huge country with less people per mile than most other nations, so the enconomies of scale don't apply.

  11. Re:Unlimited plans on Australian ISPs Claim Net Neutrality Is an 'American Problem' · · Score: 1

    those are all subject to an AUP, the same as australia.

  12. Re:What? on Australian ISPs Claim Net Neutrality Is an 'American Problem' · · Score: 2, Interesting
    isn't the Internet in Australia totally socialized?

    fuck you have no clue. there is an existing previous monopoly that's fighting competition tooth and nail.

  13. Re:Worst Slashdot Editing EVAR on Remembering 50 Years of (and Leading Up To) the Internet · · Score: -1, Troll

    slashdot is worse than a lot of blogs, and that's a whole level of bad.

  14. digg post somthing untrue? on Debunking the Google Earth Censorship Myth · · Score: 1

    NEVERZ!

  15. Re:Personally on Review of Discovery Institute's Evolution Textbook · · Score: 1

    and why do you think only monks and religious figures could read and write?? because anyone else was deemed a heretic and burned at the stake.

  16. Re:"No one can prove Evolution"??? on Review of Discovery Institute's Evolution Textbook · · Score: 1

    i think it's funny they don't try to disprove their own theory of creationism. after all, thats' what real science does.

  17. Re:2 - The Great Flood (Where are all the Unicorns on Review of Discovery Institute's Evolution Textbook · · Score: 4, Funny
    i would counter with "aliens came down and inserted a probe in your rectum, but before they could finish inserting the other 1/2 of your brain you started gyrating with enjoyment over the anal penetration and they had to pull out"

    if people really want to be so dense that they make up bullshit like that i say we just have fun with them....

  18. Re:2 - The Great Flood (Where are all the Unicorns on Review of Discovery Institute's Evolution Textbook · · Score: 0, Redundant

    rubbish. i suppose you think coal can be made in 4000 years as well?

  19. Evolution explained for creationists on Review of Discovery Institute's Evolution Textbook · · Score: 1

    Let me break it down to you this way: years and years along you were a monkey eating your own poop.

    "It is not disprovable and thus not science"

    yes it is. geology 101 blows them out of the water. "looking old" has nothing to do with it.

  21. Re:Sounds like a ploy on Internet Filtering Lobby Forms · · Score: 5, Insightful
    "I concede that illegal filesharing is a problem"

    is it really though? we've had torrent sites for years now and it hasn't killed itunes, which is competing at 99c vs free. i don't see any of the big studio's going through tough times because of it.

  22. solaris is the new AIX on NYT Ponders the Future of Solaris In a Linux/Windows World · · Score: 5, Interesting
    it'll still be around because it's a good OS, worthy of being used.

    it'll just be a niche product.

    personally i think it's sad sun blew their chances with solaris, it's superior to linux in security and performace.

  23. no number like made up numbers on China Announces Launch-Success Details — Before Launch · · Score: 0, Troll

    much like america's economy, making up the numbers only works for so long.

  24. Re:Confirmed by experiment on Studies Say Ideology Trumps Facts · · Score: 1, Troll

    and what the hell constitues a "legal" war????

  25. Re:Great! on "Dark Flow" Outside Observable Universe · · Score: 4, Insightful

    i think life is possible in almost any kind of environment. just look at the so called fragile state of life as we know it - bacteria that thrives in nuclear reactors and in boiling water. from what i've obversed life isn't fragile OR rare, but tough enough to adapt to anything and populating to the extent it seems like a cosmic imperitive.
