    no.... the RHINOvirus is what causes the common cold. NOT the reovirus.... you're confusing the two.

    yet another case of microsoft stealing the intuition of other companies. "Oh look, they have something better than us, let's copy their idea..."

  5. Re:Quantum Leap on Warfare at the Speed of Light · · Score: 1

    yeah... from what i hear also, talking to some physicis guys here at school (who may be full of it), when there's that much light concentrating on one place like that it almost creates an impact. not just heat, but it literally smashes it with the force of that much light energy moving at it.... any truth to this?

    we're talking about munitions here, not jets... no one's gonna make a jet covered in mirrors. but who cares if your missile is covered in mirrors...

    i agree. longer is better. the author doesnt have a clue

  10. Re:Quantum Leap on Warfare at the Speed of Light · · Score: 1

    lol good point... what if the enemy were to start using mirror surface coated warheads for missiles and such. that would add to their weight maybe but at least they'd get to their target...

    or maybe chrome plated warheads....

  11. wow on Windows Drivers Under Linux? · · Score: 1

    I think it's safe to say this opens up a whole new world of compatibility here. I've actually wondered about this before and if it was possible, and it's nice to see that someone wiser than myself followed up on that "wonder." Very cool. I'm sure we'll all want to follow this one.

    don't mock scripture by twisting it to fit your needs. and if you're going to say things about a bible passage you need to include a reference so anyone can do look at it in its correct context...

    I've got to hand it to them. that is a pretty sharp looking setup.

    hehe good point

  19. heh... on Savage Demo Lets You FPS/RTS On Linux & Windows · · Score: 3, Informative

    this is NOT flamebait. i was a beta tester for this game and such and i can honestly say i am not impressed with the final product. it's just kinda uninspiring... but in any case, you're welcome to have your own opinion ;) cool in concept but bad in implementation IMHO

  20. Re:just great... on Microsoft Confirms IE Changes in Wake of Lawsuit · · Score: 1

    hmm, i think i must have misunderstood exactly what was going on in the explanation of it then. as far as the company that sued them goes, its looking to me like they just wanted MS... that's my theory anyway

    oh, and by the way, i know plenty of people who were never hit who suffer from manic depression and have suicidal tendancies as well...

    i can see how many gator installations i will have to clean off because of this crap new system. i dont see why MS has to be such idiots. if they had just liscensed the technology from the start we wouldnt have to deal with the crap like this

  25. Re:Responsibility for your actions? Non-sense. on The State of Violent Gaming · · Score: 1

    your reply makes no sense... what does "spanking" have to do with columbine.

    while we're on the topic, i've been playing violent games since we got our Amiga 2000 back in 1988 and i havent ever had a violent tendancy towards someone, let alone in a way that a game would have taught me. explain that up to me please... if violent video games and spanking kids leads to columbine, are there just millions upon millions of special cases?

    It's all about money and blame if you ask me. "something happened to me so it CAN'T be my fault so while i'm sulking over it i'll try and get some money out of the deal." people need to take responsibility for their own actions and stop being babies.
