    your story sounds fishy to me.

    how about "ripened as in a dead skunk under the front porch in July"?

    relax, this article is just FUD with no sources, the truth is more likely certain models of Dell are sold with stinky driver

  4. Re:1000 years? on Ask Aubrey de Grey About Longevity Research · · Score: 1

    why do we need extended life? people dying off helps with resource problems.

    In fact, I'm all for life shortening of certain kinds of people, fat cat oligarchs.

    that's the problem with most Democrats in Congress, too spineless to stand up to Bush/Cheney and the new Republican scum

    he's talking out of his ass, that's how.

    even those calorie restricted diet studies in humans are B.S., they go for x months. pffft, people aren't rats.

    on that day, we (we the populace, maybe not the fed who may have allowed it to happen) didn't know it was group based in Afghanistan. Could have been some other power

    Actually nuking Afghanistan would not be so scary as nuking some other countries, no one is going to go to the mat for that shithole.

  8. Re:PETA won't be satisfied on Working Towards an Eco-Friendly Fireworks Display · · Score: 1, Funny

    PETA activists need therapy. rubbing them with bacon and putting them in a room with junkyard dogs would do wonders for their attitude on dog rights

    nah, you've missed the boat. You would have to have a Big Zinc executive as president, going to war in the zinc regions of earth to raise price, with a vice president who was a Big Zinc Warfare profiteer. then you'd have a parallel to oil.

    no way, world is full of turnkey solution systems where programming isn't even allowed by admins or support. And network engineers, SAN engineer, architects, hardware techs...they don't program, nor do most windows admins for that matter.

    because it won't make one iota of difference to the environment whether that thing is on or off, your one of those token bullshit symbolism over substance wanks. That's as stupid as advocating abolishing drag racing to save gasoline.

    even if there were, what's the big deal about seeding a rock populated with a bunch of freakin' weirdo germs with something more useful to us? Germs have no rights.

    the old french movie I got from pirateBay was so low budget the actors and actresses couldn't afford to wear clothes. And they didn't have much budget for writers either so instead they just writhed around, moaned and panted a lot.

  20. Re:Anonymous Coward on XP Deathwatch, T Minus 2 Weeks · · Score: 1

    you could have spent $0 on a Linux distro over ten years ago and received version upgrades, security and patches for $0. That would be like buying windows 95 and getting 98, 2000, ME, XP for free with updates. Man, windows sure is a ripoff.

    in practice we get latest software to work on older versions or migrate to newer release. unlike Microsoft, we have liability insurance for what we do and have uptime and response guarantees and the price reflects it.

    we do have certified Windows engineers who will do any version of windows or MS-DOS too (I only do VMS, Unix(tm), BSD and Linux). The usual model is that we sell a block of time and then the client can use the hours as they want.

  24. Re:Water injection. on Japanese Company Says Laws of Physics Don't Apply — to Cars · · Score: 1

    that business about steam is an old wives tale. Water expands its volume only about 300 times going to steam in an automotive cylinder, while the burning fuel many thousands of times. in short, there is no way it can contribute energy that way.

    you are talking out of your ass.

    unified field theories have nothing to do with violation of conservation of energy.

    zero point energy is just the lowest energy state of a system. nothing more, can not be used to run generator, for example.
