  1. Had people worried on Drawing uncovered of 'Nazi Nuke' · · Score: 0

    The Germans had an atomic weapons program to the extent that there were special groups of American soldiers at Normandy (on D Day) with geiger counters.

    They were taking it seriously then.

  2. Dup - alysis on Hibernation on Demand · · Score: 0

    As if it wasn't bad enough for a *dupe* to be less than 2 days old, now they even mod your comments badly if you notice it. A 'Redundant' mod for more than a few comments.

  3. Legitimate on BitTorrent Inherently Illegal? · · Score: 0

    Acknowledging that there is a LOT of piracy thats bittorrent related, there's also a fair amount of legitimate usage. Ever tried downloading Fedora Core on release day from an FTP Mirror? Pretty slow. Step in bittorrent. One or two seeders with 4 or 5 mb upload and everyone gets it at a decent speed. Also, the idea of the bittorrent protocol being 'illegal' is even more dubious. Is http liable because it was used to send pornography through your telephone line to someone underage? Try enforcing that one

  4. Re:Extreme fundamentalists are ridiculous. on Imax Theaters Demur On Controversial Science Films · · Score: 0

    Religious groups are among the most fundametally flawed areas of society.

    On an almost annual basis the church changes its opinion on a whole host of issues.

    Anything that changes that frequently (anything that changes AT ALL) and claims to be 'the ultimate truth of almighty god yada yada....) CANNOT be taken seriously.

  5. Release date on Lucas To Redo Star Wars In 3-D · · Score: 0

    I thought the much hyped trailer said it was 'may 19th' ?

  6. Battlestar Gacrapica on New Battlestar Galactica Series Starts Tonight · · Score: -1, Troll

    The pilot was ok, but the rest of the series was rubbish. Daft storylines, weak over dramatic acting and a somewhat limiting premise. It was gonna be crap anyway. Besides, like the hardcore fans haven't been downloading it from bittorrent for months.

  7. Re:having taken quantum mechanics courses... on 100 Years of Einstein · · Score: 0

    Einstein did not say "absolutely everything is relative". If that was true the universe wouldnt exist, such generalisations are the biggest problem in the general populous understanding Einsteins theories (WHAT THIS ARTICLE IS ABOUT). For reference, some things are relative, some things are invariant, a lot of important physical things are invariant. A better name for Einsteins theory would be "Invariance theory".

  8. Spaceship t minu 1 on X Prize Launch At Mojave Spaceport [updated: success!] · · Score: 2, Funny

    Please lock your seat back trays in the upright positions...
