  1. Re:Ten or Twenty Years? on Has the Rate of Technical Progress Slowed? · · Score: 1

    Progress has not slowed, it has sped up, deal with it.

  2. Re:Flying Car on Has the Rate of Technical Progress Slowed? · · Score: 1

    And yet we've had rovers on Mars since then and probes looking at just about every planet and other interesting body in the solar system. But we have not put a man on the moon in a while so it's going backwards.

  3. 64bit on Behind the 4GB Memory Limit In 32-Bit Windows · · Score: 0

    Or you could just upgrade to 64bit hardware and software and stop trying to get around the limit with hacks that break things. Intel and AMD have been selling 64 bit processors for a long time now.

  4. Re:Cue complaints on FCC Declares Intention To Enforce Net Neutrality · · Score: 5, Insightful

    Remember when the US built out the electrical grid? Or when it built the interstate system? Or when it sent people to the moon? What a bunch of failures.

  5. Re:How about 1994, 1997 and 2000/2001? on Intel's Roadmap Includes 4nm Fab in 2022 · · Score: 0

    Some of those old articles were taken down, this makes me wonder why they do this. Was that 100 KB of text really straining the server or something?

  6. Re:Marketing Guesswork, yet again. on Intel's Roadmap Includes 4nm Fab in 2022 · · Score: 0

    How is it outlandish? The number of transistors that can fit in a certain space will double every 18 months, this follows that exactly.

  7. Nobody on Apple vs. Google, Who Will Control the iPhone? · · Score: 0

    10 years from now people won't know what an IPhone is, because closed software phones won't exist.

  8. Hrmph on US Life Expectancy May Have Peaked · · Score: 0

    So when it goes up again will you post another article saying it has peaked again?

  9. Re:Just because they failed to detect any on Initial Tests Fail To Find Gravitational Waves · · Score: 0

    The waves are so large they only appear to not exist, like being on a massive wave that appears to be flat.

  10. More proof of failure! on NASA Probe Blasts 461 Gigabytes of Moon Data Daily · · Score: 0

    Just more proof that we have regressed since the last moon landing. As long as you ignore all of the probes that are shooting around planets and the solar system, and landing on things, absolutely nothing has changed.

  11. Re:No Linux Support? on Sony Announces PS3 Slim, Price Cut, Improvements To Home · · Score: 0

    Whenever I buy an electronic device i ask "can I run Linux on this?" Dish washers, clothes washers, toasters, and microwaves could not run Linux, now it's the PS3. Why must these closed systems exist?

  12. what on The Homemade Hard Disk Destroyer · · Score: 0

    The picture on the website shows that it's only mangling the outside of the hard drive and is doing nothing to the platters.

  13. Re:Just what we need on Airborne Laser Successfully Tracks, Hits Missile · · Score: 0

    The massive trailer filled with LASER equipment may tip somebody off.

  14. ugh on Netscape Founder Backs New Browser · · Score: 0

    Oh boy a new browser, than can only go to Facebook. ugh

  15. Company name is blacked out. on $18M Contract For Transparency Website Released — But Blacked Out · · Score: 1

    Why did they black out the organization name, the same one that can be seen on every page?

  16. Re:The most interesting segment is at the end on Charlie Stross, Paul Krugman Discuss the Future · · Score: 1

    Paul Krugman is only 200 years behind the rest of the world.http://www.google.com/search?hl=en&q=african+imperialism&cts=1249994560076&aq=f&oq=&aqi=g10

  17. ugh on Charlie Stross, Paul Krugman Discuss the Future · · Score: -1, Flamebait

    Every time Paul Krugman opens his mouth idiocy flies out. There's not one part of this transcript where he's right, he even gets everything in the past wrong. He is so stupid he can't even read My First Computer golden books.

  18. Iran on Ray Bradbury Loves Libraries, Hates the Internet · · Score: 1

    He can tell the Iranian's the Internet is meaningless, anybody want to pay for his plane ticket?

  19. Re:Most contradictory summary EVER. (nt) on Scientists Wonder What Fingerprints Are For · · Score: 1

    They don't improve grip, but they do improve grip.

  20. Re:They're stuck in the tv mindsest on Disney Strikes Against Net Neutrality · · Score: 1

    Because stupid people think CEO's do something in these companies.

  21. Re:UAV != autonomous on Best Way To Build A DIY UAV? · · Score: 1

    All UAVs are radio controlled except the ones that are not radio controlled. UAVs are quite capable of flying on their own, the paths are very simple and there is usually nothing in the way.

  22. Re:I've got 35 years of gaming on Extrapolating the Near Future of Gaming · · Score: 1

    Sorry, you're old, all old people are the same. Old people of today enjoy the exact same things old people from 200 years ago enjoyed. The article says so. Then it says old people are not all the same. What I'm trying to say here is that I don't know what I'm talking about.

  23. His talking about transistors got me thinking. on Extrapolating the Near Future of Gaming · · Score: 1

    You know, we've had the vacuum tube for many years now, and despite this we can only fit one or two inside of something made for the consumer. As I understand it, in today's computers they have to constantly replace vacuum tubes. Even if we could fit thousands of vacuum tubes in a consumer appliance or machine, nobody would be willing to use it as it would constantly break. He is also one of this science fiction writers that see some things advancing and others not advancing for no particular reason. It's like "The Final Question", a computer smarter than everybody put together, but nobody invented the Internet or home computer.

  24. This sure is unheard of. on IBM Tells Employees To Hold Off WinXP SP2 · · Score: 5, Funny

    A company testing new software before installing it on every system they have? Why I never! Next thing you know they'll be telling us that we should not run every attachment we get in our email.
