  1. Re:I'd do this in a second on Scientists To Post Individuals' DNA Sequences To Web · · Score: 1

    Yeah, I would hate to have the BRCA gene, especially considering that all humans have at least one copy of it in their genomes. Me, I would prefer to have the BRCA genes, preferably with no deleterious mutations.

  2. Re:GOT MILF? on WTF? NC Offers to Replace 10,000 License Plates · · Score: 2, Funny

    There is a state of Virginia plate which has a "V" for the University of Virginia followed by the plate letters "AGINA".

  3. Re:Are you saying GA's fat? on Georgia's New State Health Plan Is Google · · Score: 4, Informative

    Georgia is in the "Stroke Belt", with high rates of obesity (soul food), diabetes (sweet tea), and heart disease. The citizens of Georgia really need all the help they can get to decrease long-term health costs.

  4. Re:Don't use it then! on Canadian Group Files Facebook Privacy Complaint · · Score: 1

    The issue in it is that Facebook's actual privacy implementation is significantly worse than what its privacy statement implies. If you knew the Facebook sells your personal information to 3rd parties, and that 3rd parties submit your external facebook activities to Facebook, would you sign up in the first place?

  5. Re:Privacy on Google Health Opens To the Public · · Score: 2, Informative

    Google does not provide medical services, which is why they are not bound to the provisions of HIPAA. HIPPA is a regulation of privacy and portability for providers of medical services, not for companies that act as a storage medium for your personal health information. If people use Excel to store their medical records, will Microsoft somehow be responsible for complying with HIPAA? Of course not.

  6. Re:Privacy on Google Health Opens To the Public · · Score: 1

    That's because... HIPAA doesn't apply to Google by nature of the law of HIPAA. You know absolutely nothing about the actual letter of HIPAA law by making a statement such as yours.

  7. In this vacuum of intelligence on HD DVD Player Sales Grind To a Halt · · Score: 2, Insightful

    In this vacuum of information, there's no surprise that HD-DVD sales collapsed

    In this vacuum of intelligence, you state that there's still hope for HD-DVD. There's no chance it's coming back, not when HD-DVD has 30% of the market, and publishers care more about cost of production than satisfying the needs of a very small portion of people who own HD-DVD players.

  8. Dell Boy would say... on Cannabis Compound Said To "Halt Cancer" · · Score: 1

    Dude, you're getting a remission of cancer!

    I wonder what Apple Girl would say...

  9. Maths...... on Open Source Math · · Score: 5, Funny

    Look around you. Look around you!

    That's how I learned maths in high school.

  10. But for what...? on Microsoft Plans $500 Million Chicago Data Center · · Score: 1

    Why is Microsoft needing a data center? Don't they design Windows and Office in some offices in Redmond? Seems like a misplacement of core values as a company.

  11. Helios would beg to differ. on First New Nuclear Plant in US in 30 years · · Score: 1

    What about everyone who died because of skin cancer?

  12. Well... on Thin Water Acts Like a Solid · · Score: 1, Funny

    Is your "girlfriend" a water-bottle?

  13. Oh boy... on Delete Cookies, Inflate Net Traffic Estimates · · Score: 4, Funny

    Dear Anonymous Coward,

    So, you're the little bastard who keeps forwarding me that crap.

    This year... no presents for you!!!

  14. Also on Brain Connection To Hypertension? · · Score: 2, Funny

    Or an evolutionist...

  15. Hypocrisy on Sunspots Reach 1000-Year Peak · · Score: 3, Insightful

    On the other hand, that show is full of shit.

    Using a biased source to purport another source to be biased is pretty hypocritical.

  16. But on the flipside... on Cassini Probes the Hexagon On Saturn · · Score: 0, Troll

    On the "flipside", they do call it a "One-Eyed Monster"...

  17. Goatse? on Cassini Probes the Hexagon On Saturn · · Score: 3, Funny

    "almost looks like a human eye."

    Looks more like Saturn is giving us a Goatse, spreading wide for the camera.

  18. OMG on Ballmer Says Google's Growth Is 'Insane' · · Score: 1

    The similarity is disturbing. ^_^

  19. It's not schizophrenia... on Scientists Threatened For "Climate Denial" · · Score: 1

    I think you mean that the other guy has Multiple Personality Disorder, which is actually being called "dissociative identity disorder" these days.

  20. Re:Ummm, do you know what that expression means? on Scientists Threatened For "Climate Denial" · · Score: 1

    hahaha, dude, you're talking to yourself, you freakin' schizo....

  21. Ummm, do you know what that expression means? on Scientists Threatened For "Climate Denial" · · Score: 1, Informative

    Check out the wikipedia article about begging the question.

  22. This really begs the question... on Scientists Threatened For "Climate Denial" · · Score: 4, Insightful

    This really begs the question: are the climate scientists who dissent really tools for corporations or are the climate scientists who advocate (consent to global warming caused by man) really tools for government/special interest groups?

  23. ummm NO. on The Most Important Multiplayer Games Ever · · Score: 1

    Plenty of people played Counter-Strike, but it's just a rehash of old team-based multiplayer games, now with terrorists and counter-terrorists, rather than Red team and Green team.

  24. Or, in Microsoft's case... on Companies 'Blah' About Vista · · Score: 1

    Or, in Microsoft's case, if it doesn't work, don't fix it: sell them an upgrade which doesn't work either.

  25. But what if... on Gaia Project Agrees To Google Cease and Desist · · Score: 3, Insightful

    But what if the open source project was doing something it wasn't supposed to? Since when does open-source mean "free reign to do anything we please"?
