  1. not really relevant.... on Oil Leak Could Be Stopped With a Nuke · · Score: 1

    Lisa: “Nuke the whales”? You don’t really believe that, do you?
    Nelson: I dunno. Gotta nuke somethin'
    Lisa: Touché.
    -The Simpsons, “Lisa’s Date With Density”

  2. Re:Wimps and commies. on Iraq War Veterans Protest America's Army Title · · Score: 1

    Well, I'm glad that you think of me as an intellectual. As to missing the truth, I never said that we ("we" as a people, not "we" as in you and me) were any more reasonable, intelligent or otherwise enlightened than this, somewhat ambiguous, enemy. And if, as you seem to suggest, that the best solution is to sink to the level of the lowest of the low in order to defeat those who hate us, then I'm afraid that you've contradicted yourself.
    By the way, fear is the breeding-ground of hate. Simply getting your enemy to fear you is a sure way to get more hate directed at you. Governments have toppled (violently) because they thought that they could rule with fear.

  3. Not a game... on Iraq War Veterans Protest America's Army Title · · Score: 1

    I couldn't agree more. It's not a game, It's a joke.

    A war won, is still diplomacy failed.

  4. Game addiction? on Experts Oppose Classifying Gaming Addiction As Mental Disorder · · Score: 1

    What about those of us who can't even start their day without reading slashdot? I usually need somewhere between 6-7 fixes a day. It's frustrating; everyone always complaining that my fingers smell like nerdy news, the green stains on my teeth. It's a real problem.

  5. Be careful... on Humans Hardwired to Believe in Supernatural Deity? · · Score: 1

    ...or the pro-lifers may kill you.

  6. Re:Same as always on Cameras Help Cops Catch a Killer · · Score: 5, Insightful

    "Those who would sacrifice essential liberties for a little temporary safety deserve neither liberty nor safety." - Benjamin Franklin Smart man.

  7. Re:Let's be honest... on Mac OS X on x86 Videos Get Apple's Attention · · Score: 1

    I'm not saying that the theif was not wrong, but that you should have known better. also, the osX on x86 thing is a far cry from theft.

  8. Re:Let's be honest... on Mac OS X on x86 Videos Get Apple's Attention · · Score: 1

    I agree, Jobs HAD to know this would happen. I think everyone did the moment that it was rumored. I don't see how Apple can hold people legally accountable for something that they should have predicted. Unless they were just fishing for lawsuits all along, but that's not very Apple-ish.

  9. Re:Both! on Is Programming Art? · · Score: 2, Insightful

    I agree. I feel that even the most menial chore can be done artistically. And there is a certain "art" to making code elegant and functional. The same applies to math, science and other highly techical things.

  10. Re:This seems reasonable on Amazon Patents User Viewing Histories · · Score: 1

    When did you lose your ideallism?

  11. end? on Amazon Patents User Viewing Histories · · Score: 0, Offtopic

    Silly person, stupidity never ends. Where ever you go there is always a limitless supply of stupid. If only we could power cars with it.

  12. mokeys on LA Times Pulls Wikitorial, Blames Slashdot · · Score: 1

    "Slashdot has a tech-savvy audience that, to be kind, is mischievous and to be not so kind, is malicious" I think that most of the "tech-savvy" would be a little more creative than profanity. Such as an elaborate joke involving monkeys, chicken-wire and a bottle of tequilla. And the only one to rightly consider us malicious would be the monkey.

  13. Re:Well, on Do Music and Language Obey the Same Rules? · · Score: 1

    I don't know about you guys, but sometimes I feel a piece of sausage really musics to me.

  14. Re:strange on Physicist Loses Degree for Data Falsification · · Score: 1

    I think what they are saying is that he made up results to experiments, not the data that fueled them. And after his "activities" I'm sure it does not now matter if he has a PhD or not since he will now be working at McDonalds.

  15. what about the paint on Water-Cooled Half-Life 2 Case Mod · · Score: 3, Interesting

    What happens when the paint inside the computer starts to peel and flake off? I don't think fasion warants an explosion. It's still cool though

  16. where did it go? on NASA Says Mars Once "Drenched With Water" · · Score: 1

    Are they(NASA) suggesting that oceans worth of water exists now only as hydrates and the like? I hate to be the critic, but "the planet soaked it up?" They're going to have to do a little better before I get excited.
