  3. Re:Interesting possibilities... on Apple Snags Former Xbox Exec · · Score: 1

    At home or work... but I'm not sure that's very convenient when traveling... I can imagine someone on the subway fumbling with their little screwdriver and extra pouch of batteries.

  4. Firewire on Hands-On With the New MacBooks · · Score: 5, Interesting

    Wish the low end still had Firewire, though.
    Even if you get the new display that can fit along with the new MacBooks... it has three USB ports in the back yet no Firewire!

    I wonder if it's a power issue...

  5. Re:MOD PARENT UP on The Evolution of Language · · Score: 1

    "Korean has borrowed words from both languages, but structurally resembles neither."


    Actually, Korean resembles Japanese as far as grammatical structure (but not in terms of conjugation.)
  6. Re:I was worried about this on Singles, Not Albums, Define Music Industry Success · · Score: 1

    "The people who bought Creep after ending u shouting at the top of their voice whilst in a drunken clinch and didn't like the res of their stuff aren't really Radiohead fans; they're a fan of that Radiohead single."

    What does that mean in English?

  7. Re:So when they pass the plate in church... on The Drive For Altruism Is Hardwired · · Score: 1

    That's not the point of an offering to God.

  8. Re:New Finder... on Apple Delays Leopard to October · · Score: 1

    Sometimes you have to start moving past old things... (like OS 9).

  9. Re:New Finder... on Apple Delays Leopard to October · · Score: 1

    It doesn't seem that absolutely terrible when I use it.

  10. IT BARELY GET on How Microsoft Can Make Zune a Success · · Score: 1

    5 months in it barely get passing grades.

    Shouldn't that be... "gets"?

  11. Re:Yes. on Is Assembly Programming Still Relevant, Today? · · Score: 1

    Actually it helped me understand more about what was going on from a programming perspective. From a building block perspective, I think it's still relevant. It's not that you yourself are going to be programming in assembly when you can have a compiler break down a higher language program into assembly automatically. But the point is, for myself at least, it gives a deeper/basic look into what goes in between software and hardware.

  12. Yes. on Is Assembly Programming Still Relevant, Today? · · Score: 3, Insightful

    It's good to know how things work underneath the hood.

  13. Re:God is... on The Search for Dark Matter and Dark Energy · · Score: 1

    Dude, it's not Dr. Seuss.

  14. Re:God is... on The Search for Dark Matter and Dark Energy · · Score: 1

    Hey, there is still time for you to find out who God is and time to seek.

  15. Re:The next stage of evolution... on Chimps Found Making Own Weapons to Hunt for Food · · Score: 5, Funny

    Developers, developers, developers...

  16. Re:Devil's in the Contracts on The Insanely Great Songs Apple Won't Let You Hear · · Score: 1

    I would think something like Yuki's "Joy" single would be something that would make #1 on the US charts. (it's on youtube and google video, or at this site: http://www.transbuddha.com/index.php/buddha/commen ts/5907/)

  17. Re:I don't think this is specific to languages on Bilingualism Delays Onset of Dementia · · Score: 1
    IMO, I think that this has to do with constant learning.
    Agreed.
  18. Re:Related languages on Bilingualism Delays Onset of Dementia · · Score: 2, Interesting
    "English and Japanese have nothing in common and therefore require far more learning, understanding and whatnot."
    Actually... Japanese has many loan words... from Chinese, English and some other languages as well. That makes picking it up easier. The real difference (in my opinion at least,) that makes learning Japanese (from an English as a first language person's standpoint,) is learning to think in Japanese. It's a lot different and I find myself thinking more in Japanese than in English now.
  19. Re:What about the children? on Woman Killed In Wii-Related Competition · · Score: 1

    *the children of the mother that died.

  20. What about the children? on Woman Killed In Wii-Related Competition · · Score: 1

    Has anyone here thought about what the children are going through right now (and in the future)? This is not the right type of article to post on Slashdot... no one cares about people here.
