  1. Re:Sci-Fi's "Original Content" Will Not Be Missed on Does Syfy Really Love Sci-Fi? · · Score: 1

    I see many of those on SyFy:

    nature vs. nature
    machine vs. machine
    nature vs. self
    nature vs. the supernatural

    They're crap though.

  2. Re:Oh, please on Does Syfy Really Love Sci-Fi? · · Score: 1

    But at least they were closer to SciFi. Wrestling and ghost hunting are the replacements. Usually there's something to fill the spot if a show gets canceled.

  3. Re:Wrestling now on Does Syfy Really Love Sci-Fi? · · Score: 1

    As bad as SGU was, I'd still watch it if it came on.

    I'd rather turn the TV off than watch wrestling.

  4. Re:Great.... on King's Quest III Remake Released · · Score: 1

    That was my thought when I first read this ...I'm going to have to find that damn booklet again.

  5. Re:paul stamet's lifeboxes on Biodegradable Sneakers Sprout Flowers When Planted · · Score: 1

    Google was also sending out letters to adwords people with seeds embedded in the paper so you could just plant the paper.

  6. Re:Layout on Trying To Lure Suckers, Company Resells Open Source Blender · · Score: 1

    Worse is that it's just a frame to a site on "clickbank.net" which was blocked by my content blocker. They really went all out getting the scam components.

  7. Re:Also a bar chart! on Comment Profanity by Language · · Score: 1

    A pie graph is somewhat inappropriate since the units aren't really related. C++ may have 24% of the swears, but it's more interesting the swears for the language rather than the language for the swears.

    Without information on how many words were in each language, the data is pretty useless anyways. There might be only 5 messages in PHP all containing swears and 500,000 in C++ with only 48 swears.

  8. Re:Wait a minute on Anonymous Denies Targeting Westboro Baptist Church · · Score: 1

    Wouldn't members of the WBC who claimed this as anonymous BE a part of anonymous? That's what people claim- that you just have to say you're part of it.

  9. Re:Manufacturers don't want it on Laptop Design For Disassembly · · Score: 1

    Apple must be doing a poor job at that then. I've had my apple laptop for 6 years now. I've upgraded the RAM and replaced the battery, but it's basically been on that entire time and I have it running right now with Synergy.

  10. Re:Good..? on How Watchmen Killed 'R'-rated Fantasy Movies · · Score: 1

    The movie ends with both those situations.

    The attacks WERE perpetrated by the man who was at one time in his life an American citizen, but he made it look like it was by an alien aggressor.

    The humans still band together to to defend against the "threat", which was the plan to avoid a nuclear war.

  11. Why ICE/Homeland Security on US Gov't Mistakenly Shuts Down 84,000 Sites · · Score: 4, Insightful

    Can someone remind me again why this falls under the jurisdiction of ICE/Homeland Security?

    Are child pornographers planning on invading the US or something?

  12. Re:Uh, hang on there on Italian Police Seize Blog Over 'Kill Berlusconi' Satire · · Score: 1

    Well you just have to read it as two separate clauses.
    "Sarah Palin's calls for violence incited her followers" - That's true.
    "real people died." - That's also true.

    Did the first one cause the second? No.

  13. Re:295 exabytes on The Sum Total of the World's Knowledge: 250 Exabytes · · Score: 1

    But who's really going to notice a difference of 45 exabytes?

  14. Re:Wipe from the internet? on Sony Gets Geohot's Hardware, But Not YouTube/Twitter User Info · · Score: 4, Funny

    Hey you sunk my battleship!

  15. Re:WE DON'T HAVE THE MONEY on Obama Calling For $53B For High Speed Rail · · Score: 1

    Good point. Since we have a deficit, we shouldn't spend money on anything until it's gone. Just like the entire US history.

  16. Re:Pretty cool on Low Budget Air Space Photography · · Score: 1

    Because as you see from the start of the video - it's from December 2011!

    Not only did they send this into space, but they sent it back in time!

  17. Re:Who? on Julia Meets HTML5 · · Score: 1

    These days the Google engine is so powerful that it makes new experiments by itself.

  18. Re:Plug In Cars on White House Wants 1M Electric Cars By 2015 · · Score: 1

    A lot of companies also includes exceptions and different rates for households with electric vehicles.

  19. Re:Huh? on Four Outrages Techies Need To Know About the State of the Union · · Score: 1

    You also don't need to be on a train to blow it up. It would be easier to just place a bomb along the track triggered by the train passing over.

  20. Re:Looks familiar... on Artificial Retinas Can Balance a Pencil On Its End · · Score: 2

    As TFA mentions, the larger the object, the slower the reaction time is needed.

    So balancing a pencil is more impressive than a broomstick because it requires quicker reactions.

  21. Re:If they really thought there was a risk... on Electronics In Flight — Danger Or Distraction? · · Score: 1

    Or the TSA would take them away from us like they do our bottled water.

  22. Re:Fully-automated Sudoku solution on Google Goggles Solves Sudoku · · Score: 1

    Should probably add a step where the pages are run through a printer where the answers are printed back on the page. Then you could just have the printer output directly to the recycling.

  23. Re:Magnetic vehicle detectors from the 50s... on French Use Space Tech To Find Parking Spots · · Score: 1

    Probably was the editors shortening "Parking Space Technology"

  24. Re:Good advice - Always use your ISP for DNS on Beware of Using Google Or OpenDNS For iTunes · · Score: 1

    Typically ISPs have one set of DNS servers to give you the ads, and another set that you can manually change to to give you the normal message.

  25. Re:No different than every other massive company.. on Amazon Cloud Not Big Enough For Feds and WikiLeaks · · Score: 1

    The Government IS one of their customers, and a very large one at that. Amazon is dropping a relatively minor customer in favor of a major one.
