  1. Can't we check the submissions? on Lucas's New HQ · · Score: 0, Redundant

    It's not the KS City Star. It is the Kansas City Star. KS is an abbreviation for the state of Kansas, Kansas City (and the Star) are in Missouri, and should therefore not be using the abbreviation.

  2. Re:Low-tech beam weapons on Greatest Beams In Movie History · · Score: 1

    2x4?? Where did that come from? I thought he was talking about I-Beams... wait.... "what disaster film wouldn't be complete with .. I-Beams collapsing at just the right time for dramatic purposes?" Yep, further inspection reveals initial thoughts correct. Thank you for playing, if you have the balls let's do it again sometime. [Yes, GP should've said "what film would be complete without?" The way he says it may seem like negating two negatives, but it still doesn't have the same meaning.]

  3. Re:Software Encryption (or Destruction) Instead? on Death On Demand Drive Tech · · Score: 1

    Who is your enemy? The NSA???

  4. Re:I think we've got a record here! on NeoPets Sale Creates Ripples · · Score: 2, Funny

    In Soviet Russia, articles make fun of you...

    Thanks for that reference, I just checked my MythTV box and Enemy At The Gates is on later. I'll finally get to see it again :)

  6. Re:Who deserves to be burned alive? on Censored Nagasaki Bomb Story Found · · Score: 1

    Correction, the quality you disdain is a great one to have. One must be able to tell light from dark.

  7. Re:Who deserves to be burned alive? on Censored Nagasaki Bomb Story Found · · Score: 1

    "Deciding that any race is worth more, or less, than another is a quality I never wish to have." This has nothing to do with race. The quality you describe is a really bad one to have. If you can't differentiate between the good and the bad, then you are obviously lacking the morals that make one "good."

  8. Re:MacArthur on Censored Nagasaki Bomb Story Found · · Score: 1

    And Gore was "competent"?

  9. Re:Utter and total bullshit on Censored Nagasaki Bomb Story Found · · Score: 1

    So??? That was my point, the US government's job is to protect US citizens. If more Japanese die than Americans WOULD HAVE, but didnt have to, then it was the right move. Should we just sacrifice our soldiers to protect those monsters? (if you disagree with the use of "monster" then you need to do more research into the actions of the Japanese during WWII)

  10. Re:Utter and total bullshit on Censored Nagasaki Bomb Story Found · · Score: 0

    The fact is, without the atomic bomb more AMERICANS would have died. It is the government's duty to protect its people above all others. Seems like the bomb was a great tool in that mission.

  11. Re:Another Crying Game on Total Conversion HL2 Mod · · Score: 1

    It doesn't work because not everyone is equal to anyone else. Note, it wouldn't work if everyone was equal either. The only way to make everyone equal is not to raise everyone up to a higher level, but to lower everyone to the lowest level. Societies do not advance by lowering people, but rather by people being allowed to raise themselves.

    15 year old boys aren't the only ones with hormones....

  13. Re:And this means... on Most Americans Want Gov't To Make Internet Safer · · Score: 1

    "And it would be lawful because the only person who is having their rights violated is from outside the USA, not a citizen."

    Just because the site is outside of the States doesn't mean the owner or author is not a citizen.

  14. Re:Slashdotted on A Wiki for Computer Modification · · Score: 1

    I can get it just fine.

  15. Re:Environmentally friendly? on Homebrew Air Conditioning for Under $25 · · Score: 1

    You're right, this guys setup is a total babe magnet!!

  16. Re:Canada on Homebrew Air Conditioning for Under $25 · · Score: 0, Redundant

    You know, you could've specified units...

  17. Re:May well be right on Is BitTorrent Search Harmful? · · Score: 1

    Not everyone has a share ratio of 1. It is not required and makes no mathematical sense. For everyone one who gets the entire torrent and closes it at a 0.1 ratio there is someone who has to have a ratio of 1.9. All the ratios must AVERAGE to 1.0, but they don't all have to equal 1.0.

  18. Re:What blackboards? on Chalkboards With Brains · · Score: 1

    "non-interactive" whiteboards?

    You mean you can't write on them

  19. Re:Best order on 7-Year Old Prequel Fan On ANH · · Score: 1

    I think even better is: IV, V, III, VI. Leave those monstrosities (episodes 1 + 2) out completely.

  20. Re:Culturally Insensitive Clod! on If Bad Software Developers Built Houses... · · Score: 1

    It'd be a lot quieter to pop the hinges. Not good for you if you are home.

  21. Re:Storm Troopers? on 7-Year Old Prequel Fan On ANH · · Score: 1

    Having fired both an AK and an M16-A2 and having read articles on both, I can tell you that the M16 is not all that more accurate than the AK-47.

  22. Re:Don't get excited... on Nanotech Protests Begin · · Score: 1

    "There is resistance as current enters a tube, but no resistance along its length; the longer the tubes, therefore, the less total resistance." Wouldn't it have the same resistance, but a smaller resistance/length ratio?

    "Almost everybody who games and has an LCD has a 17" lcd."

    And what exactly do you use to base this assumption on?

    Did you see Microsoft's MTV special? It was almost entirely prerendered as well.
