  1. Ignoring objects 1km across? on NASA Outlines Asteroid Deflection Program · · Score: 1

    Are they ignoring potential threats less than 1km in diameter? Are we to believe that an asteroid 999 meters in diameter will be harmless? Such folly! Perhaps NASA will make a meters / feet conversion error and we'll all be screwed.

  2. Re:For you folks in the US on Researchers Building Computers That Run on Light · · Score: 1

    Land of ENGineering!

  3. Re:Why would Google do this? on Google Working on a Mobile Phone? · · Score: 1

    Knowing their track-record for making things simplistic (or minimalist if you will), and focusing on content rather than flashy gimicks (Google Search Engine, Gmail, Google Maps, etc..) I would love to see a phone from Google. I'm so sick of these phones with exponentially increasing features, costing hundreds of dollars... I'd like a phone that has the single feature of acting like a regular phone! And the cost should reflect the features.

  4. Re:Autopilot on World's First Lego Autopilot · · Score: 1

    George must be informed! The Danes are planning an aerial assault using cleverly constructed children's toys! Maybe invading Denmark might win back some hearts and minds lost in the middle east?

  5. Re:Post-Apocalyptic Giant Mutant Birds Say THANK Y on Doomsday Seed Vault Design Unveiled · · Score: 1

    and Twinkies...

  6. Re:V. RIM Strikes Back on RIM Strikes Back, Files Countersuit Against Visto · · Score: 5, Funny

    And in the re-mastered edition... RIM sues first.

  7. Re:I have been reading these responses, and on College Students Lack Literacy · · Score: 1
    Many people go through life without dealing with doctors or lawyers. I have never had dealings with a lawyer, and haven't seen a doctor since high school (C'mon people, eat your Fruits and Veggies!!) I don't feel experienced with such people.

    On the other hand, I've had 100+ teachers/professors in my short lifetime, and this gives me a very biased and (in my opinion) well founded opinion on the education system.

  8. Re:Yes, we canadians have a sence of humor... on Canadian Ex-Minister Calls For Serious ET Study · · Score: 1

    *clears throat* Don't you mean 'humour'?

  9. Re:What is life, anyway? on Acetylene Based Life on Titan? · · Score: 1
    In fact, "information" is a concept that is context-sensitive; nothing inherently has "information"

    The theory of entropy begs to differ...

  10. No problem on The Digital Dark Age · · Score: 2, Insightful

    The way I see it is, in 2045, they'll have computers powerful enough to look at any binary data and accurately assess what the data represents, and how to extract any useful information from it.

  11. Re:I attended this, and can offer some insight. on Carmack's QuakeCon Keynote Detailed · · Score: 1

    Mod me flamebait, but I think it's a far better thing that Carmack works for a gaming company than the US military .. at least the slaughter is virtual in Carmack's current endeavours...

  12. Interesting... on Update on the Optimus Keyboard · · Score: 1

    There's more than meets the eye with this optimus keyboard

  13. Re:Not just about Iraq on Six Bomb Blasts Around Central London · · Score: 1

    If he/she has just invaded my country, yes, absolutely.

  14. Great! on Innovators Are Older Than Ever · · Score: 0, Offtopic

    There's still time for my work on the "Virtual Portman Pouring Hot Grits Down Your Trousers" to be recognized...

  15. Already planned out... on Star Wars Sickout · · Score: 2, Informative
    Going at noon on the release date!

    Remember though... safety in numbers .. get a large group together and you'll likely stave off any tight-assed managers from complaining.

  16. Re:What Science Really is... on Kansas Challenges Definition of Science · · Score: 1

    You realize that you can't be an agnostic and an atheist, right? Agnostic's feel they can't know anything about God, and thus cannot prove or disprove his existence. An atheist just simply does not believe God exists.

  17. If it's Fermat's last theorem.. on Going Beyond Fermat's Last Theorem · · Score: 3, Funny
    How can you go beyond it? Is it not the last?!

    *ducks*

  18. Re:In other news... on Hard Drive Cooling for 10 Cents · · Score: 1

    If you're going to those lengths to erase your data, almost certainly rendering the HD unusable, why not take the cheaper way out and use a hammer?

  19. Re:Bad news on Nintendo Revolution Under Wraps Past E3 · · Score: 1

    You know, if you were REALLY bashing your head on the keyboard, you would get a lot more spaces.

  20. Re:What the hell is wrong with Canada? on Canadians May Face 25% Download Tariff · · Score: 1
    Smooth Mr Shepard.

    Can you download copyrighted music without fear of RIAA ramming their lawyers down your throat?

  21. Re:If you overclock it too much... on Optical Computer Made From Frozen Light · · Score: 2, Interesting

    If you overclock it you'll likely break some laws of physics, which has a far greater consequence than a sunburn!

  22. Can someone explain to me.. on Secure Hard Drive Deletion Appliance? · · Score: 1

    Why can't you simply write nothing but 1's (or 0's) to every bit of the hard drive? If anyone could give an explanation, that'd be great!

  23. Re:lawsuits on Lunar Dust: A Major Worry for Moon Visitors · · Score: 2, Funny

    Damnit. All I've ever wanted to do was send all the lawyers to the moon .. but now it seems they'll serve a purpose there... looks like the sun is our only option!

  24. Since most computers are silicon based... on New Photovoltaics Made with Titanium Foil · · Score: 1, Funny

    We now replace "does not compute" with "does not silicon" ...

  25. Ob Simpsons... on Internet Access 10 Kilometers High Up In The Air · · Score: 0, Offtopic
