  2. Re:Their method of science is faulty. on Researchers To Climb Ararat To Seek Noah's Ark · · Score: 1

    Prove Christianity? This was accepted as fact long before Christianity was ever thought of. Almost all ancient cultures have a story of a global or gigantic flood. If anything it would prove that ancient civilizations were more advanced then previously thought(especially in terms of architecture).

    Yeah I'll give you a Big Bang alright...Bang! Then there was light!

  4. Re:I also think we have a double standard here. on Christian Game Developers Conference Plans Gathering · · Score: 1

    False...you "can" choose your sexual preference. Just visit a maximum security prison. Tons of them wree straight until they got there, and because of lack of the female gender just learned to get used to it, or not.

  5. News... on Clear Channel Plans To Roll Out Digital Billboards · · Score: 2, Interesting

    I take it no one here has ever been to Japan?(Specifically Tokyo witch is cluttered with the things)

  6. Most Secure on Embedded RTOS Maker Raises Linux Security Issues · · Score: 1

    The most secure OS, would be one that uses open source code and improves uopn it(such as SELinux that the NSA uses). That way you would have many programmers taking a look at the code as well as less vulnerabilitiesin the first place, so you could effectively utilize security through obscurity right along side good old fashion bug testing.

  7. Re:Only a coincedence... on Bush Says Americans 'Ought to Have' Broadband and a Pony by 2007 · · Score: 1

    Not to get into political debate but even during practice flying fighter jets in drills is still very dangerous. Numbers of military personal who died fighting in Iraq are very close to those who die during training accidents.

  8. Ummmm.... on Can Games Address Serious Social Issues? · · Score: 1

    Yes they can!

  9. You have got to be kidding me?! on Are Game Magazines Turning Into Men's Magazines? · · Score: 1

    If you really want to see scantily clad women in magazines pick up one that targets teen-adult girls such as Victoria Secret, and all those glamour mags that have guys wearing their underwear and women in almost nothing!

  10. Of course... on Do Videogame Skills Transfer To Real Life? · · Score: 1

    Anyone who has played long hours of GT3 with a wheel controller knows that it helps with driving technique at the track(although obviously not as effective as real seat time).

    Yes you are just someone getting all worked up for nothing...

  12. Re:The Difference... on What Differentiates Linux from Windows? · · Score: 1

    You fear XP because you don't want to work in a cartoon? Well here is your once and a lifetime chance to finally make the switch to XP!!! Using my short and easy tutorial! First click the start button and highlight "settings". Next click on control panel. After that select the "System" Icon, and click on the "advanced" tab. Click on performance settings! Now click the circle ext to the text that says "set to best performance". Voila! You have now turned off the cartoon theme in Windows XP and also got rid of all of the fancy graphics in the GUI. Come on people, stop bringing up the same stupid things over and over just for the sake of making windows look bad! XP doesn't have to look like a circus and don't complain about the constant crashes because my XP and SuSE 9.0 both crash equally as much and YES I HAVE THEM FIGURED CORRECTLY. Believe it or not "ALL" platforms have buggy software get over it.

    So what does being a hacker have to do with commiting cyber crimes...?

  14. Completely flawed logic on Science of the coin-toss: Bias in Heads-or-Tails · · Score: 1

    "Random: Having no specific pattern, purpose, or objective: random movements." BS! There is no such thing that is truly random event to begin with! It's all a matter of properties, math, and conditions. The flipping of a coin is no more random then the law of gravity being carried out on a ball that you dropped out of your hand, it's just that the measurements are too small to make and the exact environment is to complex to properly reproduce. If you flipped a coin the exact way two times it would have the same exact outcome! Assuming the conditions are "exactly" the same, but there are way to many variables(most of which we are not even aware of without years and years of thought on the subject, because all the measurements would have to be on a sub subatomic level with 100% accuracy and perfect precision). Bottom line...Random just means the math problem to formulate the outcome is too complex or time consuming to apply to any given event.

    Umm.... There has never been a GTA4. GTA Vice City did not have a number in the title such as GTA3.

  16. Mod Parent Up on China Sending Two People Into Space · · Score: 1

    How can this be modded to zero! You have got to be kidding me! Mod parent up. This is not flaiming! This is a legitimate point of view which makes perfect sense. Don't mod down just because it is a negative view. This needs to be there to balance the represented view points.

  18. Mod Parent Down on U.S. Air Force Plans for War In Space · · Score: 1

    And we can't do that already with nuclear weapons? Why would this be any different then launching long-range missiles. If the US was going to do that they wouldn't have to wait until they have space weapons. Just about the only "real" point you have is that it is costing us money. Mod this guy down he doesn't have a clue what he's talking about.

  19. Really... on Rob Enderle Announces Death of Bluetooth · · Score: 0, Flamebait

    This a hilarious! This guy is going to tell all the people using bluetooth that their technology is dead? You might as well say that BSD is dead. Who does this guy think he is? Slashdot?

  22. Re:What About.... on Knoppix 3.3 Update, 3.4 C't Edition Are Out · · Score: 2, Informative

    SuSE is incedibly easy to use as a dual boot with windows. Pop in the WinXP cd and boot from it. Reformat your HD(warning this will erase all your data on the drive) and partition how much of the drive you want to be accessed by Windows and then install windows on that partition. Leave the rest of the HD unpartitioned. Then boot from the first SuSE install disk. From there it will hold your hand through the whole dual boot process where you will: 1.Choose your boot loader(lilo or grub) 2.Partition the rest of your HD for use with Linux. 3.Install SuSE on the Linux partition. After it's pretty little setup process when you boot up the computer it will greet you with a very clean and easy to navigate(press the up and down arrows) menu of what operating system you want to boot, and after you select what you want and hit enter it will promptly load the OS of choice.
