  3. Re:Name change on Shuttle Retirement Costs Divert Science Funding · · Score: 0

    The soyuz can only lift about 17,600 lbs or 8000 kilograms. This is more than a delta 4 medium, but less than a delta 4 heavy.

  4. Re:Painted itself into a corner on Shuttle Retirement Costs Divert Science Funding · · Score: 0

    In addition to basic design considerations such as where to attach the payloads there are a number of other considerations. One main one in particular would be lifting capacity.

    The Delta 4 medium capacity can lift 6,565 kg (14,475 lb) while the Delta 4 heavy capacity can lift 13,130 kg (28,950 lb) into orbit. This is less than the 22,700 kg (50,000 lbs) that the shuttle is able to lift.

  5. It's the Chinese fault on Google's Action Makes A Mockery Of Its Values · · Score: 0

    Until the Chinese pull their head out of their collective ass and get rid of ridculous laws that prohibit free speach than I say that Google is still abiding by their mantra to "do no evil".

  6. Verisign.com /? wtf on ICANN/Verisign Sued For Monopoly Abuse · · Score: 0

    The main page looks like wang fouey designed it with Frontpage 2000. A bunch of the images are broken. At first I thought it was just FireFox, but then I tried it with Opera and then /cringe IE. All the same, busted look. Makes me wonder if they should be in charge .com and .net if they can't get their homepage working right.

  7. Your XBOX crashes? on Xbox 360 Very Unstable · · Score: 0

    Don't worry give it 6 months - 1 year and they will come out with a Service Pack. :D It wouldn't be made by Microsoft if it didn't crash at the most inopportune times.

  9. Re:How to boycott? on Bad Day To Be Sony · · Score: 0

    I have been boycotting the purchase of CD's since 1997. Don't forget that Sony is a member of the RIAA and we all know how much they suck ass.

    Record labels and publishing companies should be eliminated. Corporations shouldn't be allowed to profit over people's creative works. People should have the tools to sell their creative works to anyone directly. Services such as book and cd printing should become just that; services that the creative author offers for people interested in their products. Less GREED more Egalitarianism!

  10. Re:It all depends... on Open Source Not That Open? · · Score: 1

    That guy who made those comments about Linux is stupid, how about the fact that you can download, install and use Linux FOR FREE. Windows you got to pay hundreds of dollars for something MS thinks is good. Of course some MS advocate is going to try use every little excuse to make it seem like Linux is becoming like windows when it actually is not! I'm sure it is a lot easier to make a contribution to the development of Linux than windows. Gah some people!

  11. Re:Probably still not enough of a wake up call on No More Science on the ISS Until Further Notice · · Score: 0, Flamebait
    How does the cost of NASA compare the amount squandered on the military?


    NASA budget = 16 billion
    Department of Defense Budget = 400 billion
    Total Spent in Iraq outside of Normal Budget = 218 billion

    Source: US Budget

    Invading/Rebuilding Iraq is a WASTE of money. If GBW wasn't such a MORON we wouldn't be there right now. All that money would have better spent on next generation fuel development and heavy tax incentives for people owning hybrids. Reduce dependency on foreign oil is the idea, not invading other countries under false pretenses then try to build up their government from a state of anarchy with the hope that someday when their economy is stable enough we can buy up all their oil. Republicans in control are so corrupt its despicable.
  12. Less Foam Shedding on NASA Scraps Shuttle And Returns to Rockets · · Score: 1

    With a rocket configuration you don't have to worry about foam coming off your fuel tank and damaging parts of your vechile that are important for reentry.
