  1. Re:Too bad... on Senator Blacklisted by No-Fly List · · Score: 1

    Hahaha amen! At least he attempts to fly instead of killing another woman DUI.

  2. Forgot to mention on Mars Rovers Find More Evidence of Water · · Score: 1

    Perhaps that a cosmic collision zapped the atmosphere to its current day position. Reguardless, something drastic happened.

  3. Re:Does it have to be water? on Mars Rovers Find More Evidence of Water · · Score: 1

    If millions of years ago was so different ie: watery world on Mars, couldnt also the pressure as well as the atmosphere be a lot different as well, thus making it a slight possibility that it could be liquid CO2, or some other substance?

  4. Re:the environmental impacts of technology waste on New Disposable Digital Cameras with LCDs · · Score: 1

    Very informative paper you wrote. I have read about how bad some places in China are where some "recycling" companies pay these people little cash to fish out the lead and other harmful products, while it still contaminates the rivers and such. Bottom line is still always cost though which people will take the easy way out (trash) over paying to recycle. I myself have done what you have, kept older comps for file storage or even running Seti@home.

  5. Re:Curious and uninformed on Real Cuts Prices for DRM-Restricted Music · · Score: 1

    Thanks for clarifying for me :). I still buy cd's as well, and definately want to be able to play it in my car/stereo etc!

  6. Curious and uninformed on Real Cuts Prices for DRM-Restricted Music · · Score: 1

    All these sites which offer music downloads, they arent compatible with players etc? Like in the article Real's [i]now will[/i] work with the Ipod. If im spending money on downloaded songs, I surely want a format which spans across as many players as possible.

  7. Re:What about the fusion wastes? on U.S. Cancels Fusion Program · · Score: 1

    You had me there for a second, good joke :)

  8. Re:whats the point? on Netscape 7.2 Released · · Score: 1

    It's all about name recognition though. People still know of Netscape, and only the tech/gaming sector knows of Mozilla. Although I do continue to try and do my best to educate my idiotic AOL and IE loving friends to switch, especially after their computers are hijacked with spyware etc.

  9. Protect the Queen! on Super Ant Colony in Australia · · Score: 0, Redundant

    Simpsons Episode: Ant 1: "Protect the queen!" Ant 2: "Which one's the queen?" Ant 1: "I'm the queen." Ant 2: "No you're not."

  10. Re:Did anyone check the math? on Puberty Blues for the T.Rex · · Score: 1

    kilogram, not 2 thousand :)

  11. Wont this also create another problem? on Coffee Bean Gene Mapped · · Score: 1

    Super cocaine, wouldnt this have an effect on it? Street prices would skyrocket for the product as im sure prison terms.

  12. Re:Bad Call, Your Honor! on Jerry Falwell Wins Dispute Over Fallwell.com · · Score: 1

    9th Circuit court is just a circus parading for extreme liberal bastards everywhere.

  13. Re:How to stop telemarketers/spammers contacting y on Net Phone Customers Brace For 'VoIP Spam' · · Score: 1

    Doesnt the voicemail pick up regardless of whether or not the phone is pugged in or not? I was under the impression voice mail is housed at a central location.

  14. Shyster? Geez! on Lawyer Sues Yahoo for Message Board Name-Calling · · Score: 1

    Ive been called a lot worse than that with and without profanity! for fuck's sake call the cops, I was just slandered on somethingawful's forums, sue Lowtax! :)

  15. Re:NoNoNoNoNoNoNoNoNo... on Microsoft Lusts Nintendo, To Little Avail · · Score: 1

    I actually would like to see this happen since there's been speculation that Nintendo may (may mind you not will) go the way of Sega and just be a software company. I would assume all of that will depend on the next generation console war which will be in full swing next year...

  16. Hope it doesnt suck on John Woo & Metroid the Movie? · · Score: 1

    Nintendo continues to water down its prime characters with more pointless sequels, lets hope the movies dont spawn the same garbage.

  17. Re:Sometimes, I still think like a metalhead on Tesla Special on PBS · · Score: 2, Interesting

    I want to know more about his "Death Ray", communication with other planets, and splitting the earth like an apple: http://www.neuronet.pitt.edu/~bogdan/tesla/bio.htm

  18. Re:Interplanetary dumpster diving time! on Terrestrial Garbage On Mars · · Score: 2, Informative

    Theres a lot of debris on Venus too from the US and Soviets...

  19. Re:Broken English but knows the Slang on Chernobyl...18 Years Later · · Score: 1

    There's also alot of inconsistencies within the essay... "There's radiation on the asphalt" and a sentence later "radiation is not on the asphalt". Plenty more of them scattered on there. Just walking on there, going into those houses, she's at major risk of cancer by the time she's 30.

  20. Re:pooh, thats nothing on Scientific-Atlanta Mulling Video Game Set-Top Box · · Score: 1

    Retrack those comments hence a lawsuit on you from those Phantom peeps! :)

  21. Re:What's the Big Deal? on Kazaa Going to Court · · Score: 1

    But we can get those huge oil can beers there too! "big enough for ya yank?" - bartender to homer

  22. Re:privacy? on Tracking Via Anonymous SIM Cards · · Score: 1

    I thought this was common practice already, since you are right about the network needs to know how to bill you depending on where the call originated from.

  23. Space Elevator? on NEC Demands License Fees For Carbon Nanotubes · · Score: 1

    Guess this would effect the SE too... NEC would become like "the Company" in Aliens if the Space Elevator ever was built.

  24. Re:Welcome to the United States of Europe... on EU About To Consider Stringent Anti-Sharing Law · · Score: 3, Interesting

    Everyday we are losing rights, and everyday we are getting closer to the fictional worlds of Fahrenheit 451 and 1984... Im not condoning piracy, but this seems to give them Gestapo powers if even if they have no proof.

  25. Re:I don't agree at all on Are Modern Games Too Easy? · · Score: 1

    I still put a lot of time into certain genres of games such as FPS online shooters. The interaction is what keeps the interest for me there. But the zillion clones of Resident Evils and the like are old hat and for me (I know not others) boring to me and repititious. How many times does one have to go back to Silent Hill???? The older games now sure dont hold my interest as easily either, I only load up the emu's from time to time. Guess im getting old too :) !
