  1. Re:No confidence on Al Gore Shares Nobel Peace Prize with UN Panel · · Score: 1

    There's two seasons in Dallas, Summer and August.

  2. Re:It's all about social status on James Randi Posts $1M Award On Speaker Cables · · Score: 1

    That's what Porches are for. I doubt any hot women gives two sh*ts about your cables.

  3. Re:Couldn't it be proven (or disproven)... on James Randi Posts $1M Award On Speaker Cables · · Score: 1

    You could probably detect differences between cables from the same manufacturer if you equipment is sensitive enough. The point is that the human ear can't tell the difference.

  4. Re:Is there not some truth in advertising law on Open.NET — .NET Libraries Go "Open Source" · · Score: 2, Insightful

    Applying this 'truth in advertising law' to misleading Slashdot headlines would be the first step....

  5. Re:Economics on Science In Islamic Countries · · Score: 1

    Saudi Arabia has a 30% unemployment rate. It's no wonder that it is a hotbed for fundamentalist nutjobs.

  6. Re:freedom of speech on Science In Islamic Countries · · Score: 1

    These are engineering endeavors more than anything. They haven't contributed much as far as pure science.

  7. Google used as a spam relay on Spam Sites Infesting Google Search Results · · Score: 0

    I was getting pharmaceutical spam that linked to Google; when you clicked the link it relayed you from Google to the pfishing site (No certificate, the site looked completely bogus). I complained about it on their bulletin board, unfortunately Google makes it very difficult to give them feedback on their site.

  8. Re:Simple on Why Is US Grad School Mainly Non-US Students? · · Score: 1

    They just have no motivation or creative spark to do anything they're told explicitly to do,

    It is not clear to me that this is something that schools are even capable of 'teaching'. It's all about bread and circuses now.

  9. Re:I Feel Ill. on Why Is US Grad School Mainly Non-US Students? · · Score: 1

    50% of the people in the US have an IQ of less than 100. It behooves us to make sure that our less intelligent brethren are cared for.

  10. Re:Would I? Well, it depends... on Newton II - Does The Rumor Have Legs This Time? · · Score: 2, Insightful

    It's bluster so ATT doesn't take them to court. Do you think Apple cares if DRM was broken in Itunes? The only reason it was there was to appease the record companies.

  11. Re:Would I? Well, it depends... on Newton II - Does The Rumor Have Legs This Time? · · Score: 0, Troll

    I don't have a single apple product and could sh*t less. Thinking different means not relying on mental crutches, like accusing someone of being a 'fanboi' when they have anything slightly positive to say about a corporation.

  12. Re:Would I? Well, it depends... on Newton II - Does The Rumor Have Legs This Time? · · Score: 2, Insightful

    Why do people think Apple has a choice in the matter? Apple most likely has a contractual obligation to ATT requiring due diligence in the case that someone finds a workaround to their exclusive contract.

  13. Re:OK by MS? on Microsoft Extends XP's Life By 6 Months · · Score: 1

    The problem is that people are recycling XP licenses, that's why they want to kill it. You can buy a pc cover on ebay with the COA sticker on it, just so you can get around buying one.

  14. Re:Jumping Generators on Staged Hack Causes Generator to Self-Destruct · · Score: 1

    More likely they forced it out of phase, which basically turns the general coils into a motor, working against the engine.

  15. Re:Heh, thanks Mike on First New Nuclear Plant in US in 30 years · · Score: 2, Funny

    Believe it or not, the Armed forces employs a large number of contractors.

  16. Re:real value? on The History of the Federal Reserve · · Score: 1
  17. Re:Bad idea? on Chinese Worm Creator Gets High-Paying Job Offer In Prison · · Score: 1

    I could instead spend five years in miserable conditions but not paying anything for room and board and then make $133,000 per year afterwards and live like a king, the choice would be pretty easy.

    Sounds like graduate school.

  18. Re:Non-MS Patches? on PC Makers Offering a Bridge Back To XP · · Score: 1

    convicted of felony = felon

  19. Re:Weird trilogy pattern developing on Halo 3 Review · · Score: 1

    Just a guess but maybe a game engine has only so many good years ahead of it before it is obsolete?

  20. Re:Haptics in gaming on Drawing on Air With Haptics in 3D · · Score: 1

    Haptics controllers are going to be appearing at compusa before christmas.

    I tried it out the other day, was very cool.

  21. Re:Virgin is the ONLY one the girl can sue on Texas Family 'Sues Creative Commons' · · Score: 1

    Thats a crock, even art photographers need model releases.

  22. Re:Visitors on Robotic Presence For a Telecommuter · · Score: 1

    I have have had clueless coworkers try to have a code conversation while I was in the stall, and I told them to STFU! If you can't have a private moment sitting in your own stink, what do you have?

  23. Re:Mistake of using the CC license on Scientist Must Pay to Read His Own Paper · · Score: 1

    Yeah except they will just send you the dollar per copy. What good is that?

  24. Re:Most effective way to stop RIAA on Variety Says Class Action May Stop RIAA Suits · · Score: 1

    I think the most this would do is empty out a lot of basements.

  25. Re:Never going to happen on 'Flying Saucers' to Go On Sale Soon · · Score: 1

    The operating cost for one of these is probably several hundred dollars per minute. Good luck patrolling the US with F-16s.
