  1. Re:Hmm. on Ask Slashdot: Which Comic Books To Start My 3-Year-Old With? · · Score: 1

    Super Dinosaur is a fantastic read. I read it, my 9 yr old reads it and I read it to my 3yr old. A boy and his best friend who is a T-Rex in power armor. It's well written and drawn by the team that brought you Astounding Wolfman. And Robert Kirkman writes fantastic stuff for adults. The letter's column in the back of the book is the hilarious with all the pictures kids draw and send in that get published. I highly recommend it. **previously posted as AC due to laziness and not finding a mention to respond on!

  2. Government Requirements on Breaking Down Barriers to Linux Desktop Adoption · · Score: 1

    Working in the defense industry, it is just not feasible to use anything other than MS Office since *.doc is the required format on 95%+ of all contracts. If by chance it is not REQUIRED, it is very often prefered. Let alone the apparent dependance on MS Project for all your scheduling needs.

    As a company we've looked at transitioning to Linux several times, but between the Office dependance and the lack of hardware design toolset support it just isn't possible.

  3. Conspiracy Theorists? on Why Did The FBI Retire Carnivore? · · Score: 2, Insightful

    Please tell me that the owners of this site are not only hosting the site as a place for conspiracy theory... It disturbes me that one of the first article on the site references The Onion. -M@

  4. US Neutral? on EU Intent on Hosting International Fusion Reactor · · Score: 1

    I was under the impression that the US was neutral on the issue of site location

    I quote:

    "Looney said that "If the US joins ITER it would not be as a lead player." The United States is "absolutely neutral" as to where the facility would be located..."

  5. Re:To preempt some things on EU Intent on Hosting International Fusion Reactor · · Score: 3, Informative

    Actually this might have been the case at one point, but the US has since become neutral on the subject
