  1. Personally... on LSDVD Starts Cooking · · Score: 1

    I'd rather give them $100 to make an "Open Source" player than give them $1 to make some industry controlled BS.

    Fight the man,
    hey wait... I'm the man.

  2. The article said... on Asteroid Clips From NASA -- Updated · · Score: 3

    they were going to attempt to land on Eros to complete the mission. Hmmm...
    I wonder if they are going to try to blow it up, maybe that Armageddon movie got them NASA people thinking, hey, if something like that did happen, we really would have to send up some clueless oil workers.

    Sorry, I forgot to take my medication today.

  3. Re:Overclockers are definitely a male subculture.. on Overclocking is a Counterculture · · Score: 1

    Sure, if you overclock the warranty is supposed to be null and void, but how are they really gonna tell?

  4. Re:Commercial Purposes on Mir Reactivation Mission to Launch Monday · · Score: 1

    I've seen pictures of the inside of Mir, and I don't think I'd want to spend more than a couple of hours in that shoe box. Sure, taking a space flight would be incredibly cool, but actually living in Mir for a few days? I think I could find better things to do with my money.

  5. I haven't prepared at all... on The Geek Compound Prepares for Y2k · · Score: 1

    I figure that if civilization does collapse and the apocalypse begins, I'm just gonna walk the earth, like that guy in kung fu. You know, walk from place to place, get in adventures, that sort of thing.

  6. Re:Yep. Australia is in "rapid Darwin catch up mod on Scientists Manage Interspecies Birthing · · Score: 1

    We directly and indirectly kill off species (spotted owls, etc.), and favor other species (chickens, cows, ec.). I see no problem in this regard.

    You see no problem? Yea just wait till you have a craving for one of them spotted owl sandwiches burger king used to serve. Now all we have is chicken and beef, its just not the same =(

  7. Re:Geem, where have I seen this before... on Time Doesn't Exist · · Score: 1

    Well, if time doesn't exist, and speed or velocity is a measure of distance over time, then speed doesn't exist either, so explanation is unnecessary.

  8. Re:CD-R k(un)reliability on Reliability of CD-RW Discs · · Score: 1

    A friend of mine once bought a spray on solution for this purpose. It was a while ago, so I don't know the name or what the product was made of, but it did help on some audio CDs to eliminate skipping. I guess the stuff just kinda filled in the cracks.

  9. Re:I Believe Robots Are Our Future on Silicon Chip Survival of the Fittest · · Score: 1

    The religious zealots aren't all that concerned, after all, the world is going to end in a little over 3 months, and those involved don't seem to be that close to C3PO yet.
