  1. Interesting on US Military Launches YouTube Channel · · Score: 2, Informative

    They have done other things like this with other media formats - like Soldier Radio in the 50's.

  2. Re:1200 degrees F? on First Map of an Extrasolar Planet · · Score: 0

    Also, they don't indicate the amount of error. How sure are they ?

  3. Re:7 Things My Boss Shouldn't Know ... on 7 Things the Boss Should Know About Telecommuting · · Score: 0

    You;re pretty funny actually. But seriously, I've telecommuted for most of 10 years now on different jobs. On most of them, I think I've worked just as hard as a normal worker. But it has given been some chances to goof off.

  4. Re:Wow that would be handy on DARPA Starts Ultimate Language Translation Project · · Score: -1

    I wish I had mod points to mod the parent up. I have sat through some DARPA presentations that look absolutly crazy and incomprehensible. If there is anyone out there who doesn't know how to make good ppt slides, it is government agencies. Do I have any support from anyone out there ?

  5. Re:I disagree on Micro-ISV: From Vision to Reality · · Score: -1

    6 months of paid leave off sounds like a terrible policy. How big is this company ? A startup wouldn't be able to afford a policy like that.

  7. Re:Thou dost protesteth too much!! on John Seigenthaler Sr. Criticises Wikipedia · · Score: -1

    Actually, wouldn't it be fine now to put into the wiki article:

    'In a recent article regardiing an entry on him in Wikipedia, Mr. Seigen Thaler took issue with the statement "John Seigenthaler Sr. was the assistant to Attorney General Robert Kennedy in the early 1960's. For a brief time, he was thought to have been directly involved in the Kennedy assassinations of both John, and his brother, Bobby. Nothing was ever proven."'

  8. Re:Good but.... on Car Hacks & Mods for Dummies · · Score: -1

    Yeah, I found the typos annoying but it was a big help for me when I modded my 72 Dodge Dart body regarding safety. And it has a funny joke from Seinfeld about a "Johnson rod".

  9. Old adage on Sound To Power Space Probes · · Score: -1

    I wouldn't say it was that old. Wasn't it from the Sean Connery movie which takes place near Jupiter ?

    As a feminist and a 48 yo grandmother I am offended.

  13. Why so predudiced ? on Linux on a Used Cash Register: Reloaded · · Score: -1, Flamebait

  16. offended on NYT on Spam Cops · · Score: -1, Troll

    I am french grandmother, and feminist and am offended by the sperm joke. Why does slashdot always be anti-woman ? I work hard for my family, and am nice to my husband. Also slashdot is too anti-french!!

    Has anyone ever served jail time or been fined for spamming ?

    From article:

    "so simple, even my grandmother could implement it."

    As a 48 yo grandmother, I am offended that technical incompetance is equated with being a grandparent. I don't think anyone would have said "so simple even my grandfather could implement."

    I am incidentally, a C programmer of 20+ years.

  25. Qualifier on World's Fastest Supercomputer To Be Built At ORNL · · Score: 5, Insightful

    As usual, there should be a qualifier as to what is meant by fastest. According to their definition they are, but not according to NEC's, for example.
