    Hrm...sounds kinda like Slashdot...

  2. Re:Hastalavista California... on NASA Quakesim Predicts 15 Out of 16 CA Quakes · · Score: 1

    Florida? A state? Nah, Cuba came and claimed it their own a few years back. Don't you remember?

    Sorry, but California's not going to "fall into the ocean". It will, however, break apart, and part of it will become an island.

  4. Re:Xeniums aren't the greatest on Xbox Modchip Featuring Onboard Operating System · · Score: 5, Informative

    Actually, with the release of XOS 2.0.0, this has been fixed. On top of that, it includes a repair utility to undo the problem on HDD's that had been previously formatted with OS 2.0 Beta 1

  5. You Get What You Pay For on Romanian Team Entering X-Prize competition · · Score: 4, Insightful

    Yes, because I really want to send myself into a frozen vacuum inside a craft that cost less than most boats...

  6. Re:Work Habbits on Software For Slackers: Lockout · · Score: 1

    I don't do most of my work in the root account...I was just making a comment on the purpose of the program. But anyway, who can get work done without the internet? It's integral!

  7. Work Habbits on Software For Slackers: Lockout · · Score: 5, Funny

    Sure, I'll get my work done MUCH faster, now that I can't use the internet...or the computer...

    Well, of course, we'd need brain firewalls. Just don't trust anything from McAfee!

  9. Re:Placebos on Vaccinated Against Vices? · · Score: 1

    Good point there. Somebody would eventually find out...imagine the public reaction, 'specially if the vaccination is payed for by the individual!

  10. Re:language gap on Africa Enters Global Market For IT Outsourcing · · Score: 1

    Well, if we outsource the Indian teaching jobs to Africa, we can have the Africans teaching the Indians American English! And it'll only be pennies on the dollar! Why didn't we think of this sooner!

    The dealers, I can understand, but the junkees? They can't really help it at that point. Anyway, street execution is a bit harsh. At least publicly-televised execution by a more humane method.

    They're very well-read bacteria, if that's the case

  13. Re:Placebos on Vaccinated Against Vices? · · Score: 2, Insightful

    That's like saying that somebody who knows he can't die won't do normally life-threatening things. People sometimes throw themselves off buildings because they were told by higher powers that they would fly (usually drug induced dreams, or the likes). I say that they just create a "cure" for the addictions, something that will get rid of them. You can't undo the damage, but, if people realize the mistake they've made, at least they'd have the ability to stop.

  14. Re:Coincidence? on Microsoft Looking to Sell Slate Magazine · · Score: 1

    You've got a great point. I mean, a lot of people are going over to FireFox simply because it has tabbed browsing, a feature that Microsoft definitely WON'T be implementing in their next version. If Microsoft cared how many people used their browser, they'd pay a bit of attention to the user feedback. This whole thing is just a way for them to change corporate policy and get their hands further into the media market.
