  1. lying on Brain Scans to Identify Liars? · · Score: 0

    In normal people, you will see different patterns of brain activity between telling the truth and telling a lie. However, if the person can convince herself that the lie is true, then this test will not work.

    It would be interesting to do a study of gender differences in lying. Is there a biological/physiological basis for the saying: "Boys lie, girls prevaricate" ?

  2. In other news... on Google To Buy Radio Advertising Firm · · Score: 0

    Google buys life, the universe, AND everything.

  3. Re:Hubble on More to the North Star Than Meets the Eye · · Score: -1, Redundant

    Space is big. REALLY big. You just won't believe how vastly, hugely, mind-bogglingly big it is... -Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy

  4. basic grammar on Xbox 360 Kiosk Demo Spurs Hackers · · Score: -1, Offtopic

    The disc contains playable demo's on the disk such as Call of Duty 2, which could also be hackable, as PI speculates.
    Since when do we use apostrophes to indicate plurals???

  5. Stem cell resesarch on Stem Cells to Treat Brain Injury in Children · · Score: 0

    The issue of stem cell research somehow gets lumped in with abortion, which is a completely different issue! We are talking about ADULT stem cells here. This has nothing to do with abortion. You shouldn't have a problem with adult stem cells unless you have a problem with in-vitro fertilization.

  6. Re:zaaaaap on Statically Charged Man Ignites Office · · Score: 3, Funny

    Don't you think you all are getting too polarized over this issue?

  7. Re:We need bigger numbers! on Xorg and Desktop Eyecandy · · Score: 0

    The amps that go to 11 instead of 10 is a reference to a hilarious scene in the film "This is Spinal Tap"

  8. Dillo on Gecko-based K-Meleon 0.9 browser Released · · Score: 0

    Dillo is faster than any web browser I've ever seen!

  9. battery life issue on Windows Longhorn to make Graphics Cards more Important · · Score: 0

    Does anyone know if this will this help or hinder battery life of laptops? Does offloading work to the GPU tend to increase power consumption or decrease power consumption? (I bet it increases)

    Or should I say "notebooks", since today's portable computers tend to burn one's crotch and are really not designed to be used on one's lap.

  13. Lego case security issues on Build Your Own Lego Computer Case · · Score: 0

    Mother: Dear, little Joey has swallowed the lego men who were SUPPOSED to be protecting our computer from malicious spyware! Now our computer is in danger of being INFECTED! What ever shall we do?

    Father: Don't worry, cutesy buttons, we'll send a team of highly skilled lego robot probes to sift through Joey's feces in our Lego toilet. We won't let those little suckers get away so easily.

    Mother: Are those robots water-proof and poop-proof?

    Father: They are highly trained and heavily armored Lego dung probes. In the worst possible case, we'll have to summon the Lego Poopsmith to take care of things. In any event, we will hunt down and kill those deserting punks just as our savior Dubya did with Osama bin Lego....I mean Saddam....whoever the bad guy is according to Fox News....

    Father and Mother, in unison: Oh, how we love the 11th commandment*! (kiss)

  14. So... on Microsoft Releases AntiSpyware Program · · Score: 1

    Let me guess, it removes the e-vil spyware (Windows) from the computer.

    Sounds like the shizzle.

    Oh yeah, how do you upgrade it after it deletes Windows?

  15. Obligatory Dr. Strangelove Quote on Gates Nose-Dives at CES · · Score: 5, Funny
