  1. Maybe the article title shouldve been... on New Way to Make Hydrogen · · Score: 1

    "Instant hydrogen, just add water." Hey, thats basically what theyre doing, right?

  2. what? on Apple Switch to Intel Not a Big Loss for IBM · · Score: 1

    "IBM plans to be inside these new systems." Last I checked, they already are ;)

  3. Must we.. on Death Penalty For Hackers? · · Score: 1

    Must we rekindle the hacker v. cracker speech? I say Death to all lowlife scriptkiddies!!! :D I'm sure we can all agree on that, right?

  4. Re:I'd be seriously tempted... on Harry Potter's 'Half Blood Prince' Leaked · · Score: 1

    What are you going to do, post it in a newsgroup? :P

  5. Better security on Iris Recognition To Take Off · · Score: 1

    In other words, now we can have iris recognition on our laptops? Wow, I can just imagine our laptop LCDs scanning our eyes when we look at the bios POST screen or the longhorn logon window... God thats going to be creepy

  6. Re:Nice logic, but on Tear Down the Firewall · · Score: 1

    A firewall would make sure that unused ports that no applications are listening on are blocked The apps which are supposed to listen will keep listening on the opened ports. If there's nothing listening on a certain port, keep it closed :)

  7. Nice logic, but on Tear Down the Firewall · · Score: 5, Insightful

    obviously, if you can rethink your security model AND keep up a well-maintained firewall, you will likely be better off :) How hard can it be to do BOTH, not one or the other?

  8. SpaceShipTwo on Commercial Use of Shuttle Landing Facilities Planned · · Score: 2, Insightful

    This would be a good launch site for SpaceShipTwo... or rather, five SpaseShipTwos loaded onto their respective Whight Knights as the same time! That's a huge runway...

  9. Thank goodness on Genetic Research In The Heart of Amish Country · · Score: 0

    It's good to see that religion/culture values helping others more than abstaining (word useage?) from society.

  10. Thank god it wasnt rated AO on GTA Sex Game Leads to ESRB Fracas · · Score: 0

    Well, we all know what wouldve been tje outcome if it was rated AO, dont we? (franchise erosion and death, etc.) so thank god it wasnt :)

  11. Serious+Funny? on The Escapist · · Score: 0

    In my humble opinion, I find that any serious book with comedic relief or vice versa tends to have plot line issues. I will go ahead and read this one only because it appeals to my taste, but I'm not sure if I will enjoy it... Its either Serious or funny, not both.

  12. Is this an o'reilly book? on Don't Click on the Blue E · · Score: 0

    Wow, not bad. I know quite a few people who could use this (No one ever listens to me when I tell them to use firefox and avoid IE. Now theres a book on it... It might make a good birthday gift ^_^)

  13. Illegal? on Florida Man Charged For Stealing Wi-Fi · · Score: 0

    Nicely done with the whole reposting and all. Im still surprised that stealing wifi would be considered a felony. I dont think there's even a law against it in most places... Anyone willing to tell me the places where there is a law against stealing wifi access?

  14. Dictionary on Owner of the Word Stealth 'Protecting' Rights · · Score: 0

    Once the word lands in the dictionary as a non-slang, uncapitalized word, it should lose all trademark value...

  15. Taxes on Consumers Union Wants You to Share Your Story · · Score: 2, Funny

    Does this work with IRS tax issues? I'd love to post my issues with the IRS in there

  16. Mail Servers on UK Ministry of Defense Broken by Spoof Video · · Score: -1, Troll

    In other words' theyre too poor to upgrade their mail servers? They would be able to fix all that up if they pulled out of Iraq >_

  17. you scared me to death! on IBM buys Gluecode · · Score: 1

    I originally thought you wrote "IBM buys Google" You almost gave me a heart attack >_

  18. another random accusation on Verizon CEO Calls Municipal Wi-Fi 'a Dumb Idea' · · Score: 0, Flamebait

    wow that comment came out of the blue. people should ignore moneystealing CEOs who drop random accusations (common sense)

  19. console fun on Quake IV Confirmed For QuakeCon · · Score: 1

    well good itll be for consoles too :D i hope the console versions can play online against the PC versions ^_^

  20. Windows users? on Hack turns GIMP into Photoshop Look-alike · · Score: 1

    Nicely done. This will definitely appeal to the photoshop users *coughs*pirates*/coughs* out there. Im hoping its ported to windows soon though. it was already ported to linux, and i dont want to have to use CoLinux to use it.

  21. 503x preview shots on New Longhorn Screenshots And Schedule · · Score: 1

    old news. in fact, its several weeks old too. i posted this to /. several times and it was rejected every time. WinFS wont be in longhorn. to add to that, WinFS is a microsoft idea from the 1990s :P

  22. competition is good on Verizon: FiOS Access For Other ISPs in the Works · · Score: 3, Informative

    this will help other ISPs, and it will keep costs down thanks to competition. thank god
