  1. Re:SUV-bike collision? on The Hybrid Scooter · · Score: 1
    went off the road, turned upside down and died and shit

    And this little poetic piece is going on the tombstone I imagine?

  2. Re:Change second length on U.S. Scientists Call for a Time Change · · Score: 1
    No, it's much more simple and easier to remember than that. It's simply "defined as the length of the path travelled by light in absolute vacuum during a time interval of 1/299,792,458 of a second."

  3. Re:"new" Camus? where? on Is There Such A Thing As A Final Cut? · · Score: 1

    In the 90's his son or daughter came out and published an autobiographical piece he was working on around the time of his death, called "The First Man." It is basically unfinished, and though I haven't read it, I think the idea is that it is still worth reading.

  4. Re:Completely foolish. Utter fraud. on Engineers Have More Sons, Nurses More Daughters · · Score: 1

    Maybe it was noticed, and that's why they did official research on it.

  5. Re:Solar Death Ray on The Solar Death Ray · · Score: 1

    Yes, while I feel that people in working in special effects was a good idea really, I think the show would also benefit from a regular appearing physicist, or maybe they could try and get Bill Nye on there.

  6. Re:Bah, this isn't The Dating Scene... on TV Show About The Scene · · Score: 2, Funny

    Also, it's not like lifeguard's even have to save people every day. If they stuck to what it was really like, there'd be a ton of episodes of everyone just getting stoned and hanging out on the beach all day.

  7. Re:Er on Gates Pledges $750M to Vaccinate Children · · Score: 1

    Isn't he rich? That sounds pretty evil to me...

  8. Re:RTFA on Inventor of Optical Storage Gets Little Reward · · Score: 2, Insightful

    Well I'd say it's one part knowledge, and three parts cutthroat business ethics.

  9. Re:Life Recorder on The Future of the P.C. · · Score: 1

    I imagine audio, if it can hold 2000 photographs taken everyday.

  10. Re:D&D odds perspective on Introducing Asteroid 2004 MN4 · · Score: 1

    We should probably just go ahead and make a D233 to decide whether or not to react.

  11. Re:Friday the 13th on Introducing Asteroid 2004 MN4 · · Score: 1

    Actually the number 13 is considered a sign of bad luck or ill omen.

  12. Re:Froogle clothing on 2004 Year-End Google Zeitgeist · · Score: 1

    Mmmmm poncho....

  13. Re:re-girlfriend? on Re-Pet a Reality · · Score: 1

    Welll there's going to be software no matter what, just a different program. Maybe your last girlfriend was sort of a bitch but had a banging body? That might not turn out so bad.

  14. Re:Maybe it was some phenomenon on Mystery Phenomenon Cleans Mars Opportunity Rover · · Score: 3, Insightful

    Well if the wind does carry the dust on to the panel, can you expect the same wind to carry it off the panel instead of add more?

  15. Re:/. fucks up again on Penny Arcade Holiday Strip Series #1 · · Score: 1

    Opera has adblocking, and you can shift click tabs to get rid of them. Also you can preform the mouse guesture right on the tab if you've fallen and can't reach your keyboard.

  16. Re:35% on Examining Bittorrent · · Score: 1

    Tracking the trackers? Bastards...

  17. Re:Hm on Enter the Relativity Challenge · · Score: 3, Funny

    I think if anyone understands females enough to even attempt to explain them in any amount of time, they won't be spending much of their time on video games.

  18. Re:What will the volunteers do? on Russian Mock Mars Mission · · Score: 2, Funny

    Well they're Russian, so they'll probably get drunk, and then after a long time of being around no women, they'll start making out.

  19. Re:But the real question is... on New brewing Method Means Faster Beer, Less Waste · · Score: 1

    Sometimes it's more profitable to decrease the price, so in the even more realer world, beer prices could very well go down along with higher profits and layoffs.

  20. Re:ahhh on Ozone Hole Getting Smaller · · Score: 1

    So are you saying that no one saves anyone's life, because no matter what they're still dying? I'm pretty sure it's common knowledge that everyone dies, so saving someone's life is considered helping someone dodge imminent death. So if a meteor is about to hit earth and a crack team of oil drillers hop on spaceships, fly to the meteor and plant a nuke in it so that it explodes into two pieces missing the earth, a combination of science and dramatic effort saved your life.

  21. Re:Xanadu on Details On Inflatable Space Modules · · Score: 1

    I imagine they're using the best fabric money can buy.

  22. Re:Reliability? on Soyuz Damage May Delay Space Station Trip · · Score: 1
    I think the main issue here is that when there is a problem, everyone remembers and takes notice of that, but when there's a big success, no one really cares that much. It's like people are more interested in the problems than the actual results.

    One huge example I can think of is the rovers. It seemed like everyone knew about when they had problems, and it was a big deal. I wonder how many people know that the rovers preformed better than expected, and that their missions have been extended.

  23. Re:A bit more in an existing debate: on First Americans May Have Been Australian · · Score: 1
    http://paranormal.about.com/library/weekly/aa08070 0a.htm

    The second page even has a bunch about supposed Egyptian visits not just to the Americas but to Australia. Fortunately it's at least listed under paranormal.

    What is the stronger source, dictionary.com or random guy on Slashdot? Do you have a source to back up your claim that his source is wrong?
