  2. (-_-*) on Air Force Researching Antimatter Weapons · · Score: 1, Funny

    Of course the moment antimatter comes in contact with matter you get a violent reaction, so firing antimatter without a ridiculous amount of shielding which itself would be matter, and thus set off the antimatter, would result it you dying in a spectacular display of one of the best PEBKAC's ever to grace military science. Of course this should be expected from the branch of USM that actually has their top pilots landing with the parking brakes on...

  4. In a word... No. on Bruce Sterling says: Marry the UN and the Net · · Score: 0

    Gamers are already getting 12 shades of shit for being gamers. Hell, i cant go to certain places without getting rocks thrown at me and being likened to the columbine gunners. Merging the UN would just subject us to even worse treatment and bring in a couple dump trucks worth of paperwork and political hot air balloons. The internet without the UN is like a soldier fighting without an accordian, all your doing is leaving behind a lot of noisy baggage.

    How can you patent something like a collar computor, thats like trying to patent shoes! Nike cant just go and say "Oh, we own shoes" so how can these clownboats get a patent on a collar computor... methinks its time for some peaple to bring out the toolkits and Redhats.

  11. This could be usefull to astronaughts on A Liquid That Turns Solid When Heated · · Score: 1

    Peaple think of outer space as incredibly cold, but it can be hot too. This stuff could prove to be a lifesaver if kept in space shuttle hulls, imagine if you kept it in liquid form in a space shuttle during re-entry, and should you wind up with cracks and holes or whatnot it simply oozes out and gets heated up and solidifies. thereby saving the shuttle from near certain destruction. the same with deep space missions, any impact will likely produce enough heat to solidify the material, at least long enough for the crew to deal with the situation. it may be only for a few seconds, but that would probably be enough for them to snap on their helmets.

  13. Grand Canyon on "Levels" of Computers the Future? · · Score: 1

    Further widening the elitist gap in the gaming community. For as long as i've been a gamer, and a computor nut, i've had an experience that was unrivaled by any i've ever had in real life. The computing community as a whole has always been a unified one, supporting each other whenever necessary. This sort of elitest seperation between computor levels will serve no purpose but to widen the rift that has steadily been growing over the past several years. Computing has always been my safe haven from the prejudices of the world, and now it seems that were becoming just like the bigots of the real world. Maybe instead of trying to seperate everyone into "Levels" we should go back to the original goal of furthering humanities knowledge of the universe, and generally having a kickass time playing games chatting and whatnot. Whats next Mein Gates? "All macintosh users and sympathizers must wear a rainbow apple sewn on their clothes"? we really ought to stop imitating the real world.

  14. Re:Not that good of a law... on Anti-Spyware Bill up for Vote in Congress · · Score: 1

    A computor can be defined as a type of home, digital instead of physical. It is a private location to which you hold the keys and only you may invite others into. Spyware is like someone coming into my home, planting all sorts of monitering devices, and then taking records on EVERYTHING i do and say and even think. Then they go and sell these to whoever will pay. Not only that but some forms of spyware could also, say, take my AC and sell that to the highest bidder or maybe rent out a space of my fridge instead of my processor. And you say law is not the answer? We resort to law because it is the sign of civilization and rational society as we know it. Should we go back to force? i ask you, which is better... to use death and pain to keep society in line, or to use law that can be enforced without barbaric methoods. Law is what defines a civilized society, whether written down or spoken. Either way, it is what seperates us from anarchy. Law abiding peaple have nothing to fear from it because they dont break the law and it doesnt interfere with their activities (proper ones anyway), and those who are a danger to society can be removed from it. The presence of law itself is like the presence of a small picket fence around your lawn, it keeps good peaple good and defines those who are not good. And those who are not good can be arrested and tried before a jury of their peers before recieving their sentence or release. But all that doesnt matter, because someone forcing their way onto your computor and essentially RAPING it in the fullest non-humanoid sense of the word is not a matter for law is it. What, then, is it a matter of?

    Has anyone done the popeye joke yet? Anyways, youd think that spinach wouldnt work all that well. Kudzu would be a much better alternative... i deal with it almost daily (damned weeds) and the stuff literally grows almost a foot a day (i got out a tape measure for this one) and its about as easy to rid yourself of as HIV. why go for a dinner supplement when you can have the Jason of the plant world?

    replace "liberals" with either jews, blacks, gays, women, gypsies, or any other minority of your choice. Now tell me how that sounds. yeah, didnt think it would sound as good after that. try to think up something better than that next time, because calling someone a liberal automatically lowers you by about 20 points on the "am i intelligent, or am i an idiot?" scale. this is of course because BOTH SIDES will call each other liberal and both sides will also blame liberals for all the worlds problems. just about the only reason there isnt a Final Soluton To The Liberal Problem is because nobody really knows who the liberals are.

  22. ..."you peaple"? on Mushroom Cloud Reported Over North Korea · · Score: 0, Troll

    I think someone needs to wake up and smell the bullshit. Americans are no longer in charge of their country, Bush has done pretty much everything he can atm to make sure of that. Even a blind leper whose been forced to watch goatse for the past 10 years can see that almost all americans are dead-set against pretty much everything bush is doing. Especially now that he is on his little crusade against what, in his own words, he calls the "gay threat". so why dont you all just imagine that our country has been taken over by a hostile military force which is hopelessly brainwashed to be infinitely loyal to the new "president" who is nothing more than a dumber and weaker hitler without as much of an urge for genocide...YET. oh and he doesnt have the dinky little mustache anymore.

  23. Roflcopter... on Is Open Source An Advantage For Game Developers? · · Score: 1

    As someone who has been very involved with open-source game development, i assure you that this assumption is false. Its not how much of your product peaple get that determines whether(sp?) or not its a good game, its what YOU the developer put into it. Hell man, look at Tenebrae quake, they are open source and they have what is essentially doom3 lighting in Quake ONE. We arent the shabby lot were made out to be.
