  1. Re:Highlander III did it already... on What If We Lost the Sky? · · Score: 1

    A proposition doth not a reality make.

    I'd love to see their credentials side by side.

    So you think fire is enchantment?

  4. Re:Last week ... on How Walking With Smartphones May Have Changed Pedestrian Etiquette · · Score: 1

    Both of you stated opinion with no cite. My guess is that it varies by locale.

  5. Re:Last week ... on How Walking With Smartphones May Have Changed Pedestrian Etiquette · · Score: 1

    You've worked yourself into such a tizzy that you're arguing against views that haven't been expressed. Is there a point?

  6. Re: Take your space on How Walking With Smartphones May Have Changed Pedestrian Etiquette · · Score: 1

    "... how about we get over the notion that all bad driving ever is caused by that, ok?" Done - since no one thought that or promoted it.

    No, he *doesn't* get out of *their* way and lets them bounce off.

  8. Re: Take your space on How Walking With Smartphones May Have Changed Pedestrian Etiquette · · Score: 1

    You may not be 12, but you're not from the south either. That's not the attitude there, or of concealed carry citizens (they've studied the pertinent laws). You're just an AC troll.

  9. Re:griping about historical accuracy in this case on The Imitation Game Fails Test of Inspiring the Next Turings · · Score: 1

    You are completely misrepresenting the attitude exhibited in his/her post. You're railing against some illusory person.

    "... we ..." - Bwahahahahahaha!

  11. Re:common man on The Imitation Game Fails Test of Inspiring the Next Turings · · Score: 1

    Did you order that pomposity by the truckload, or was there a mistake in delivery?

  12. Re:It is not about technology on Ask Slashdot: How Can Technology Improve the Judicial System? · · Score: 1

    "...then why is my ..." And exactly which of the thousands of ACs are you? Your word about this is meaningless without a reference.

  13. Re:Aggression on Stephen Hawking: Biggest Human Failing Is Aggression · · Score: 1

    Burning tap water, totally fisked. The methane was in the water before fracking started.

  14. Re:Brought to you by the same government on Fedcoin Rising? · · Score: 1

    You're honestly equating helping slaves escape with tax-dodging?

  15. Re: Numerology on Theory of Information Could Resolve One of the Great Paradoxes of Cosmology · · Score: 5, Insightful

    A completely bogus concept can be very accurately modeled with math. Reality doesn't care.

  16. Re:Evolution isn't about personal survival on Game Theory Calls Cooperation Into Question · · Score: 1

    What an utterly simplistic and incorrect definition of biology.

  17. Re:The Selfish Gene on Game Theory Calls Cooperation Into Question · · Score: 1

    Pedantry limits understanding. He was obviously referring to the gene combination that made that individual unique not each specific gene.

  18. Re:Theory vs Empericism on Game Theory Calls Cooperation Into Question · · Score: 1

    No, but you *can* question the utility of a mathematical excursion. Calculating the number of angels that can dance on a pin head is math too but is pretty obviously an exercise in futility.

  19. Re:Translation please on Smoking Is Even Deadlier Than Previously Thought · · Score: 1

    No he wouldn't, because you're equating a literally once in a war occurrence with common aging results. This makes your question spurious. To add a second reason, he wrote about the societal costs of those healthy people in their last years, so he wasn't arguing for health benefits for tobacco for an individual but instead that its culling effect might simply be cost efficient by coincidence.

  20. Re:Distinction without a difference on Smoking Is Even Deadlier Than Previously Thought · · Score: 1

    Yes, it's known as "influence". It is not, however, known as influence.

  21. Re:Wrong consequence on Smoking Is Even Deadlier Than Previously Thought · · Score: 1

    Drinking too much coffee has its health issues as well. Should Folger's be on the hook for that? How about we leave the responsibility with the person choosing to use the products they choose.

  22. Re:The Once and Mighty Slashdot on Notorious 8chan Board Has History Wiped After Federal Judge's Doxing · · Score: 1

    Neo-jihadist... You don't know what that means, do you? You just think it sounds intimidating, like it makes you an authority of some nature instead of just an AC posting a vagrant comment.

  23. Re:AmiMojo = Zoe Quinn on Notorious 8chan Board Has History Wiped After Federal Judge's Doxing · · Score: 0

    You know this wasn't a troll how? For all anyone knows, you made both posts, so you're sticking it to Gamegate in general is lame.

    Law enforcement cannot stop a random psychotic individual from getting you, they can only arrest the perp and prove they did it. There's numerous reasons judges would keep their personal information off radar - the criminals they put away.
