  1. My predicition on Open Robotics Debuts at Penguicon 3.0 · · Score: 1

    I believe that this is the single greatest thing to happen to robotics. This will completely revolutionize the way we live.

    (I am just saying that so if it really does happen, I can tell everyone "I told you so")

  2. About the software on SysInternals Releases RootkitRevealer · · Score: 2, Interesting

    I don't know anything about rootkits, or this software, is it safe to delete everything it detects or is this for people that know exactly what they are looking for and you only delete a couple of things it finds?? In other words is it foolproof?? I'm sorry that was a bad question. How foolproof is it??

  3. My $.02 on One Giant Step for Humanoids · · Score: 1

    I don't understand why they try to make human robots. If you think about it humans are not very specialized creatures, we can do a little bit of everything. run, swim, jumb, crawl, etc. They should make robots specific that way they can do a few tasks great as opposed to all tasks decently. For instance, if you want a robot that will take beer from your fridge, why would you make a humanoid robot that walks perfectly?? Just make two wheels and an arm that can open the fridge and pick up beer (or other items from your kitchen). Specialized robots would be cheaper, smaller, and more efficient. You could afford more of them and more people could afford them.

  4. Not enough punishment on GPS-Enabled Criminals In Massachusetts · · Score: 1

    If you are that much trouble they ought to just throw your butt in jail for a while. A GPS device nothing more than a mere slap on the wrist for serious problems

  5. Hopefully everyone else is a Dilbert reader too.. on Random Number Generator That Sees Into the Future · · Score: 0

    Yeah tomorrow it will predict that the squirrels will take over and force us to work in their nut mines...

  6. If you could eliminate one on Ask Microsoft's Martin Taylor About Linux vs. Windows · · Score: 3, Interesting

    This won't get anwsered i'm sure but... If you had to choose between linux and apple for competition over the next decade who would you choose? In other words, do you see Linux or Apple as a bigger threat to Microsoft's share of the OS market.

  7. Re:Dark Matter Explained... on Dark Matter Discovered · · Score: 1

    I totally agree. I think these guys make up these long equations and when the don't work, they just add some greek symbol and write an article. It is important that if you decide to do this yourself you need to add "dark" or "anti" in front of your word For example: If I work some long equation and end up with 18 = 83 there are two options: 1. I am wrong, rework the problem and recheck my original hypothesis. 2. Everyone else is worng, I just discovered something amazing called "anti-dark-variables" simply insert "x" and 18x = 83. That works. Go write article.
