  1. Re:Not only IT on Burnout and Depression Among IT Workers? · · Score: 1
    "Karma: Positive (probably because of superiour intellect)"

    Possibly, but certainly not because of superior spelling.

  2. Re:WRONG on Microsoft Wants Sit-Down With OSS Advocates · · Score: 1

    It's more like "ITSH A TWAP!"

  3. Re:.met file extension? on Microsoft to Introduce PDF competitor 'Metro' · · Score: 1

    I think it will use '.6ul' as the extension.

  4. Prometheus: a bad choice of name on Update on Project Prometheus · · Score: 1

    From NASA's overview:
    "Prometheus brought down the gift of fire from the heavens to humanity".
    That will go down well with the environmentalists... it does not inspire much confidence about keeping this (nuclear) fire up there instead of down here, does it?

  5. Re:Australia has a similar problem on Will America's Favorite Technology Go Dark? · · Score: 1

    Lucky you. I bought a STB here in Brisbane. Whilst it improves the picture of channels that already have a fair-to-good strength signal, it's hopeless for low-strength. I live below a hill and can't pick up SBS that well via analog, but is watchable. However I can't pick SBS up AT ALL via the STB. I'm going to lose that. Just how much higher do I have to put my high aerial??

  6. Re:Hmm on Offshoring to a Ship in International Waters · · Score: 1

    At least they'll get their HTML anchors correct!

  7. Here in Brisbane Australia... on Daylight Savings Change Proposed · · Score: 1

    ...we don't have Daylight Savings unfortunately. Most other states here do, the lucky sods. So like a lot of others here, we start early and finish early. We're effectively working DST hours. Myself, I start 7:30am and finish 3:50pm. Works for me!

  8. Re:hondaship on Japan's 20-Year Plan for Space · · Score: 1

    I bet it will have a huge rocket-powered detachable transformer fist as first stage...

  9. Re:Avoiding the obvious memes... on BlueGene/L Puts the Hammer Down · · Score: 1

    Just enough processing power to comfortably beat any rival country's effort, is what's needed. Presumably only the Japanese were happy with The Earth Simulator in top spot. It must have been galling to other SC builders until BG came into existence.

  10. Re:add a date to your website on NZ Business Fined For Out-of-Date Website · · Score: 1

    You're the only posting here that states the obvious solution. The site should have had the simple phrase:
    Prices subject to change without notice

  11. Re:Just the American ones? on Astronauts Face Bleak Odds For Spaceflight · · Score: 1

    Why would another country want american astronauts to take their glory? Surely they'd want their own nationality?

  12. Re:How many kilometers? on Martian Sea Discovered · · Score: 1

    Don't forget hailstones, which are always measured in terms of gofballs. How on earth did they describe hail before golf was invented?

  13. That's 'Land of the Free(tm)' now on Public Park Designated Copyrighted Space · · Score: 1

    or is 'Land of the Free (R)' ?

  14. Re:Why is this under science? on Random Number Generator That Sees Into the Future · · Score: 1

    Because it uses the properties of resublimated thiotimoline to function, and that's a crossover to the dicipline of chemistry.
