  1. Re:Fast? on Attacking Multicore CPUs · · Score: 0
    Just replying to null my accidental "redundant" mod...

    Although a "redundant"-mod on the first post would be kinda funny.

  2. Re:Spy vs Spy on French Threat To ID Secret US Satellites · · Score: 1

    I don't know if i got that...

  3. Re:hmm... on Facebook Exposes Advertisers To Hate Speech · · Score: 1
    That doesn't really matter though since the link doesn't have the string "f**k islam" in it, it's only a group ID. So this group seems indeed to have been removed

    Or possible slashdotted, if that's possible with page on facebook :)

  4. Re:Fills up too fast anyways on Terabyte Hard Drive Put To the Test · · Score: 5, Funny

    No matter how big a hard drive gets it still only has two states: new and full.

  5. Re:Why go through all that trouble? on China To Deploy World's Largest People Tracking Network · · Score: 1

    This is partly why I have a cellphone bought in cash, using a pre-paid SIM also paid in cash. Noone knows it's mine. Except all the people I call I suspect... Darn, no tinfoil hat plan is perfect!

  6. Re:How long do we have to argue about the why... on Sun May Be Warming Both Earth and Mars · · Score: 1

    So your argument is that we are currently in a state where the earth is warming by natural causes, and that the rapid increase in global temperature is just a coincidence?

    I don't know about you, but I've always considered theories which reqires that the world is in a special state at this point a bit suspicious. Earth beeing the center of the universe comes to mind...

  7. Re:We're not worth the effort on Fermi Paradox Predicting Humankind's Future? · · Score: 1

    Not necessarily. Towards the center of the galaxy the space radiation is much more intense, and it may be impossible for life to evolve/survive.

  8. Re:Only one mibiNeuron? on Building a Silicon Brain · · Score: 1
    40 clock cycles wouldn't do you much good. A single neuron can have thousands (or millions?) of connections to other neurons.

    They are not as dumb as the fake neurons we all played with in AI class at college...

  9. One example... on A Quantitative Analysis of Online Dating · · Score: 1

    Well, there is the question of gender...

  10. Re:Dubious article. on Cheating At Roulette May Be Legal In UK · · Score: 5, Informative

    This has nothing to do with the weel beeing biased, it has to do with timing the ball and the weel and calculating where the ball will most likely stop. All this is in the article. (yeah, yeah, I know, I must be new here :))

  11. Creativity on the net on Google Image Labeler · · Score: 1

    Seriously, this raises a good point. Sites like this, that let "users" add their "creativity" to add to a sum off... nothing really. I mean, all this creativity that the users of these sites repress and use for these useles purposes must be possible to channel into something more usefull! I wonder when some hot, young company manages to make a business of actually using all the creativity available on the internet to do something usefull?

    Hey, maybe I could be the next .net millionare by creating the "bahoo" of the next generation of surfers!? I mean, when they all grow tired of myspace, they must turn somewhere!

    or?

  12. Re:Wrong Conversion on Nanowires Four Times Faster Than Silicon · · Score: 1

    Duh! It's a first post! First posts always get high scores! It's an unofficial rule here at slashdot! ;)

  13. Turn it off? on Biometrics Win Support From the Lazy · · Score: 5, Insightful
    The main issue I have with putting chips under my skin is that I can't take it out whenever I want! If there were a convenient way to turn it off I might do it...

    (But carrying around a device for turning it off kind of circumvent the whole idea... Then i could just carry an ID card with an off switch instead)

  14. Re:A bit premature on Researchers Create Artificial Insect Eye · · Score: 0, Offtopic

    On the other hand, if an article is posted here when the product is FINISHED, you'll get 100 posts saying "this was already reported on this place six months ago"... Articles on slashdot are a loose-loose situation :P

  15. Re:Yet more magic pixie dust... on S3 Graphics Comes out of Hiding with Chrome20 · · Score: 1
    I'm just curious...how does S3 manage to keep their graphics card business afloat?
    Uhh they don't! That's why they went away!

    The only way they're funding this drive is because they managed to trick a bunch of people they invented a 6.8GHz 1TB RAM and 2TB HDD Laptop... :)
  16. Re:60? on 60th Anniversary of the Atomic Bomb · · Score: 5, Funny
    Hey! Don't look down on 60 just because of your "hey, I've got ten fingers! let's use a decimal system"-thinking!

    60 happens to be the base of the Babylonian number system and the second Unitary perfect number. You insensitive clod.

  17. sex??? on slashdot?? on GTA Sex Game Leads to ESRB Fracas · · Score: 1

    "sex game might be real" Anyone think this is going to get slashdotted fast?

  18. Re:Humans already do this on Monkeys Pay for Monkey Porn · · Score: 5, Insightful
    This is just homophobia driven to the extreme...

    Watching sports is not a sexual behaviour, but rather a herd behaviour. It strengthens the bond to the "herd", in this case the followers of the same team. It also appeals to the competitive side of humans, since sports (usually? always?) are a competition. It's hardly a display of gay sexuality.

  19. fast computing on Is Atlas Holding Hipparchus' Lost Star Map? · · Score: 4, Funny

    He calculated, within six and a half minutes, the length of a year That's some pretty fast calculating...
