  1. Re:Worthless on The Fallacy of Hard Tests · · Score: 1

    For having a 140 IQ you don't seem to get the fact that IQ is graded on a bell curve and so that would make 140 many times smarter than a 70, not just 2X.

    Oh yeah, he's asking a lot of questions.

    Questions like:

    "You keep on going on looking stupid, while buildings collapses in Alaska because of the melting, and Greenland cracks apart. The evidence that this unprecedented global warming is being caused by man cuold fill a warehouse."

    Yeah, I'm stumped. I wonder what he believes in.

  3. Re:And why is this a problem? on US Can't Meet The "Grand Challenges" of Physics · · Score: 1

    Uh, where exactly will the USA fall?

    The Soviet Union was made up of a bunch of culturally and ethnically different republics.
    And it had a very government-intense political and economic system.

    Of course, when the end came it broke up and turned capitalist.
    And its not like Russia is doing any worse than the Soviet Union was.

    What exactly can happen to the USA?
    Are we gonna break apart into 50 separate states?
    Are we gonna turn communist?
    What?

    You know, you should try to re-read your post.
    You sound a lot more like a religious zealot than a scientist.
    But that's just me.

    You haven't had anything peer reviewed lately, have you?

    Getting rid of bias is not that simple.

    Slashdot is nothing. Have you seen Reddit lately?

  7. Re:Yeah, present both sides! on 26 Common Climate Myths Debunked · · Score: 1

    Yes, because any research that disagrees with you obviously is funded by the evil corporations.

    Believe in whatever the hell you want, but know that with that kind of a bullshit knee-jerk response you're being as unscientific as all the deniers that you condemn so much.

  8. Re:Not very long... on Censoring a Number · · Score: 1

    Wouldn't it be 10 (base 13,256,278,887,989,457,651,018,865,901,401,704,640 )?
    1 is still 1 no matter the base.

  9. Re:So if the this is completely free of charge.... on 1-800-Google Launches · · Score: 1

    Maybe the companies that they promote will pay some amount for every call?

    Or a percentage of the purchases that Google refers?

    Or even pay a premium to be on top of the results list?

    This would all be very easy to track, and it could be the reason that this specifically only focuses on businesses.

    Do you think that if I had the ability to get a girlfriend or sex I would be here?

  11. Re:Go Microsoft! on Microsoft to Sue Cybersquatters · · Score: 1

    I'm all for the getting rid of cyber-squatters, but I sure hope these companies just threaten before they sue.

    One time I registered a domain for personal use that, when you group the letters differently, just happened to be the name of a multi-billion dollar corporation that I had never heard of.

    You can bet I was surprised when a couple months later I got a nice thick package in the mail from their attorneys.

    Thankfully they decided not to take my house after I gave them ownership of the domain, but still.

    Seriously, threaten before you sue. The "cyber-squatter" may have never heard of you before.

  12. Re:My own bias on Cosmic Rays and Global Warming · · Score: 0

    I just think that extraordinary claims require extraordinary evidence.

    Anybody that claims "We're all gonna die!" has to back it up extremely well.
    Quite simply because, first of all, every other person before them in the history of mankind who has said "We're all gonna die!" was wrong.

    And I don't think that terminal global warming has enough evidence yet.

    Is the earth warming? Yes.
    Is human-caused carbon dioxide contributing? Yes, practically by definition.

    Should we panic? Or spend trillions trying to "fix it"? Not yet.

    How can you not realize how idiotic that is?

    By ALWAYS assuming the worst-case scenario every single time some guy yells "we're all gonna die" you end up shooting yourself in the head.

  14. Re:The right to privacy is underrated on The Privacy Candidate · · Score: 1

    Yeah, now I'm confused.

    On one hand she seems to say that she's for privacy.

    Yet, on the other hand, she's trying to ban violent video games.

    The only people stupid enough to compare the USA to a third-world country are those who have never lived in a third-world country.

    Can't Google just Open Source the project?

    That way we don't have different companies and foundations duplicating eachother's work, but all the results are still open and accessible to everybody.

    Riiight, I'm sure the giant government conspiracy to hide global warming is the main reason that this is being set up.

    "Also it's estimated that two-thirds of the coral reefs will be gone in 30 years which is about the same timescale as the melting of the ice in the article."

    That's because *everything* is always 30 years away.
    Haven't you noticed that?

  21. Re:Any Irony Here? on UN Report Downgrades Human Impact on Climate · · Score: 2, Insightful

    Quite frankly, from all I've seen from the Greens, it looks like they're much more interested in making all us filthy heathens return to "mother nature" and not actually address the problem in a sane technological manner.

    But that's just my impression.
