  1. Re:The human eye is proof God exists on Human Eye's Oscillation Rate Determines Smooth Frame Rate · · Score: 1

    no appeal, just fact. A person's life can have purpose if they will and act for it to be so.

    Your god must really, really have hated those Syrian children that writhed in agony for minutes as they died of chemical weapon poisoning. Must really, really hate the millions of africans that starve and are slaughtered in genocides. what a vindictive bastard He is.

    the early transparent calcite crystal lenses on the eyes of trilobites and even older compound eyes of some ancient arthropods are proof your religious fantasies are complete bullshit. The eye evolved, and we even know the creatures on the paths.

  3. Re:NTPd is a mess that needs to be replaced on Apple Pushes First Automated OS X Security Update · · Score: 0

    no newer release because it is mature software

    If you want the latest version, that's inside openbsd, why not use an OS in your product that has emphasis on robustness, security and correctness (to specs and in algorithms used) ?

    true that

    It's worth pointing out the libertarian types I know are great neighbors, believing family and then neighborhood the building blocks of a nation

  5. Re:Cameras work on Study: Police Body-Cams Reduce Unacceptable Use of Force · · Score: 4, Funny

    how about when she's feeling kinky and feisty? does that put the damper on or stoke her fire?

    links to video in your reply as proof, please

    wrong, those are just shit-heads who forgot they answered "yes" when installing. The typical kind of lowlife that consume 95% of an IT department's time

  7. Re: Duck & Cover? on ESA Carries Out Asteroid Impact Drill · · Score: 1

    that loon in Sydney attacked a store full of unarmed citizens. In the USA, that would just be impromptu poll of who's concealed carrying.

    Sure, might not survive armed terrorist attack even carrying a weapon, but what would you rather have when someone determined to kill starts their rampage, some chance or no chance?

  8. Re:Time to move on ESA Carries Out Asteroid Impact Drill · · Score: 1

    you are very funny. We can't live on Mars, it is unsuitable for indefinite human habitation for a long list of reasons.

    You're not thinking thing through; libertarians are generally armed.

    nothing dumb about the duct tape suggestion; research that before spewing

    yeah openbsd project noticed that a decade ago: http://www.openntpd.org/

    Apple can't push anything without user opting-in to auto updates. I didn't so received notification of update I had to manually install

    ever heard of employees so incompetent with computers exposing servers to them is worse than exposing to internet?

  14. Re:Wrecking a car causes damage! Film @ 11 on Grinch Vulnerability Could Put a Hole In Your Linux Stocking · · Score: 1

    outside the gravity well, "heavy" can mean "being painful to de-acelerate" using part of the body such as foot due to possessing great inertia. Heavy really is all about lack of ease of acceleration

  15. Re:3 minutes is slow? on Tesla About To Start Battery-Swap Pilot Program · · Score: 1

    really, 3 minutes or ten, it doesn't matter. I might spend more than three minutes at rush hour to get gasoline; anything under five minutes is damned impressive and good enough

    Let me tell you about the time I was living outside the gravity well, not pretty there either, turns out when big heavy things collide with your foot inertia can be a bitch too

  18. Re:Grinch is not a flaw - has no CVE!!! on Grinch Vulnerability Could Put a Hole In Your Linux Stocking · · Score: 2

    Older than BSD, it's a TENEX thing, from 1969

  19. Re:Why 'wheel'? on Grinch Vulnerability Could Put a Hole In Your Linux Stocking · · Score: 3, Informative

    just shortened form of slang "big wheel", a person with authority. It was term first used for user accounts with admin privileges in the TENEX operating system (later called TOPS-20).

    Extra trivia, the name TENEX was chosen because it was intended to be superior alternative to TOPS-10, as in Ten Extended. OK, that's enough, god I'm old

    lots of *yen* put into that and at risk. a threat to interests of those Japanese bank investors. Not going to be using the "Stars and Stripe" as background music for that tale of woe

    Meaning, subsidiary of that Japanese Multinational Conglomerate, full ownership (of Columbia Pictures Entertainment) acquired by the combined funds of five Japanese banks.

    Why are you worried about and using the imagined future liabilities of a Japanese conglomerate as a basis for what should or should not be done in this country?

    That's the really scary part, those wiley trucking companies and Chicago CTA buses never issue warnings beforehand, they just suddenly run one over. Truly more to be feared than a group of foreign script kiddies.
