  1. Re:This is deep sh*t on An Amphibian Fungus Has Become 'The Most Deadly Pathogen Known To Science' · · Score: 1

    I mean, other than the idiot teenagers and the anti-science supporters of the GOP, everyone knows that frogs and toads are the canary in the coal mine... and this means we are in seriously deep sh*t.

    I have no idea how true this is, but perhaps the climate and pollution, etc. not being as significant of factors as this disease means the idea that frogs are an indicator of environmental health isn't as true anymore?

  2. You mean to tell me on Death Metal Music Inspires Joy Not Violence, Study Finds (bbc.com) · · Score: 1

    that people listen to music that makes them happy?

  3. The scariest thing on Anti-Vaccination Conspiracy Theories Thrive on Amazon (cnn.com) · · Score: 1

    Is that this article was written. It feels like there's a vague implication of "they need to stop."

  10. "...rather a simple idea:" on OpenAI Built Gaming Bots That Can Work As a Team With Inhuman Precision (qz.com) · · Score: 0

    A massive amount of GPUs and CPUs thrown at the problem.

  11. In other news on Valve Announces New Portal Content For Virtual Reality (roadtovr.com) · · Score: 1

    Valve announces it's still not making Half Life 3.

  12. Re:Bad idea? on Sea Snail Toxin Offers Promise For Pain · · Score: 0

    True, but it would take a lot more water to kill you. This toxin would kill you in the milligram amounts.

  13. TOXIN! on Sea Snail Toxin Offers Promise For Pain · · Score: 0

    It's produced in red tide plankton and can be extracted from shellfish who eat red tide plankton. Very neurotoxic chemical.

  14. What he said to the JP girl on Justin Long No Longer A Mac · · Score: 0

    just what was he saying to that hot new camera from Japan?

    hajimemashite - How do you do?

    yoroshiku onegai shimasu - Nice to meet you.

  15. I can't believe nobody has said it yet. on Researchers Debut DNA-Powered Computer · · Score: 0

    Does it run linux?

  16. Re:Fine the Shops not the kids on Common Sense Beats Out MN Games Law · · Score: 0

    You're right! When I did get doom 3, after I got that shotgun MAN did I just want to go around killing people with anything I could get my hands on! I'm not saying video games are harmless. What I think is that kids who are more predisposed to violence will more than likely be effected by playing something like GTA. However, some people just don't feel the urge to become violent people. It all depends on the person, which is why it should be up to the parents and not the politicians.

  17. Re:Fine the Shops not the kids on Common Sense Beats Out MN Games Law · · Score: 0

    What's funny about all of this, is that me being a minor I can't buy restricted games. I'll be at best buy and need a parent to get an M game. HOWEVER I can easily buy an R movie. What happened to me once is I brought a copy of scarface and doom 3 to the counter. The cashier told me I couldn't buy doom, but sold me scarface with no problems.

  18. That's it. on Big Brother Wants Into VoIP At Any Cost · · Score: 0

    Ok, this has seriously gotten out of control. Everybody has been talking about how they're slowly taking our rights away. Well, now they have. Sorry but that's the last straw for me. Having the ability to monitor VOIP phone calls without a warrent? I don't know about you, but I am seriously considering moving out of the country, at least until we get a better president. I don't know what else to do.

  19. How fun on Using Electricity to Heal · · Score: 2, Funny

    Now when we cut our fingers building computers, we can just electocute ourselfs with the power cables!

  21. Re:And there's less crime on Coffee is Addictive · · Score: 0

    And fewer crimes, because it would stop people from needing to break into stores, etc. for money to pay for the high prices.
    Also, the rehabilitation services would be for drug users who want to stop. everybody wins.

  22. Re:Scotty would be pleased. on Transparent Aluminum Is Here · · Score: 0

    No, because they gave him the formula so they could have it. And if it took 8 years to figure it out, how did they get it and put the whales in it.

  23. Re:Scotty would be pleased. on Transparent Aluminum Is Here · · Score: 0

    Maybe he still did, since "we" just invented it.
