  1. Re:The More Important Discovery on Cause of Aurora Borealis Confirmed · · Score: 3, Insightful

    So to sum up your entire post for those that come after me, you are saying "electric universe rules".

  2. Re:protons practically grow on trees on Former Anti-Nuclear Activist Does A 180 · · Score: 1

    In Soviet Russia, joke reuses you.

  3. Re:foisted by yOUR own petard on FCC May Move to Cap Cable Company Size · · Score: 0, Offtopic

    Wow! Good article! It is rather offtopic, but wow... for somebody like me who has only a light education in economics, it's easily digestable yet not dumbed down. I really appreciated reading this article.

  4. Re:Remind me again on Voyager 2 Set to Reach Termination Shock · · Score: 1

    Welcome to the Electric Universe. Don't forget to check your common sense at the door.

  5. Re:Mod parent down, wrong on both points. on New Neutron Scatter Camera to Detect Smuggled Nukes · · Score: 1

    WTF is this? It seems like the parent is purposefully putting out misinformation! His post is completely made up, and I think it was intentially made so.

  6. Re:2007 - TV international coverage of ETs/UFOs on Are Aliens Living Among Us? · · Score: 1

    For the Disclosure Project, skip the intro guy's speech, it's boring and not horribly relevant. It ends shortly after 2:30. The second introducer, who speaks until 14:30, is one of the "loopy ones", unfortunately. He has either an obvious agenda, or believes in things that he only wants very strongly. The second guy, and most of the other couple of dozen of witnesses, are solid gold and it is very shocking that people of such stature and mental well-being are disclosing what they have been in contact with. Most are real people, not the crazies you usually equate with alien and UFO stories.

  7. Re:2007 - TV international coverage of ETs/UFOs on Are Aliens Living Among Us? · · Score: 1

    Let me provide the only refution to the parent poster I can come up with: As you watch the video, a small number of the people just want UFOs and aliens to be true, and some are simply loony.

    However, the majority of the people that appear on the Disclosure Project are serious, well-balanced people holding impressively high and important positions in the government. The video is shocking, and I hope somebody else can help speak against the Disclosure Project. I desperately want it to be true that UFOs are alien vehicles visiting us in this century, but this video seems too good to be true... yet I am helpless to find any of its flaws.

    Korea is like Japan's younger sister. Just don't let any of either party hear you say that. :)

  10. Re:Spam ruined email on In The US, Email Is Only For Old People · · Score: 1

    I hand my address out EVERYWHERE (fflaguna@gmail.com) and I almost never receive the bad, unsolicited spam in my gmail account that I would receive most other places. A couple months ago for a couple week timespan I started receiving spanish spam mails (most of these spanish ones were already blocked and I never saw them), but about five a week got through. I stopped receiving them after a couple of weeks, and now I'm back to receiving ZERO spam. I recently glanced through for false positives, and have only ever received more than a couple over the past year or so.

    I have also been able to train gmail's spam filter to disallow non-spam mails that I don't want to receive ever again with about a week or two worth of training. The only unwanted emails I receive now are from Amazon and Apple, for the most part. I've been meaning to sign on to my Amazon and Apple accounts and disallow those emails, but I haven't bothered with that yet.

    I never understand people who say "I DO receive spam with gmail, and that is the reason I use another email service."

  12. Firmware 1.1.1 is jailbroken on iPhone Keyboard Leads to Typso · · Score: 1

    Firmware 1.1.1 has been jailbroken with an installer for some time now. Upgrade to Firmware 1.1.1 using the iTunes interface, and then browse using your iPhone's Safari to http://www.jailbreakme.com and click "Install" to put Installer.app back on your phone. I thought I should put the word out about this, since I never noticed a Slashdot story on it. Enjoy. :)

  13. Re:Prosecute them. on Wikileaks Releases Sensitive Guantanamo Manual · · Score: 1

    Are you kidding? I was typing a halfways decent reply, but you don't even deserve that. You should spend at least fifty seconds looking up some supporting information on your own, rather than asking anybody to come up with an essay on a subject like this. Even the general ultra non-conservative slashdot community is familiar with Hugo Chavez. You might as well ask somebody to come up with a 500-word essay when they claim "gravity is why the earth orbits the sun".

  14. Except you forgot about one thing... on Cosmic Rays From Galactic Black Holes · · Score: 2, Interesting

    The GZK cut-off prevents such highly energetic particles from reaching the Earth unless they are formed in our galactic neighborhood, so this article only talks about how these particles may have formed, but does not answer why it is that they still have their high energies when they reach us.

  15. Re:Are you enlisted? on House Narrowly Avoids Having to Debate Impeachment of Cheney · · Score: 1

    What the Iraqis do to each other is no concern of ours. It wasn't in 2003, and it isn't now.

    What the Germans do to each other and what the "Asians" do to each other is no concern of ours. It wasn't in 1938, and it isn't now.

    Isolationism is a horrible idea. A line must be drawn somewhere eventually as to when a country deserves an invasion to protect ourselves and the world, but "what the iraqis do to each other is no concern of ours" is the worst argument you can come up with on the issue.

    Don't worry, there's still mind control parasites to contend with - tinfoil hats won't help against those. Uhh, have you ever seen a mind control parasite penetrate a tinfoil headpiece? Sorry, Mr. CIA/FBI/NSA/KGB/FSB, I know you are all one in the same vying for world domination, and your attempt to persuade me to remove my cranial protection is laughable at best.

  19. Re:When I punch 10^15 eV into Google... on Origin of Cosmic Rays Confirmed · · Score: 1

    So, imagine the energy level to be 8-9 ORDERS OF MAGNITUDE (or around a billion times) more energetic than a nuclear fission chain reaction.

    Also, try to imagine all life as you know it stopping instantaneously and every molecule in your body exploding at the speed of light.

    Woah.
