  1. Parents of the world! on The Impact of Violent Gaming · · Score: 1

    Why do video games and tv/movies get the blame so much when they are quite clearly labled for violence and it is a crime to sell them to underaged kids. The parents who buy the games for the kids and the odd dodgy games store that will sell them to the children shoudl be the focus not the games manufactures. I would also love to see this research as I can prove the following with corilational evidence.

    Guns dont kill people, the majority of fire arms deaths are actually cause by the bullit. Ban Ammo!
    Bread has been consummed by 99.9% of all perpirators of crimes within 24 hours of the crime
    The increase in video game play is linked to the increase in violence
    The increase in video game play is linked to the increase natural desasters
    The increase in video game play is linked to childrens IQ increasing

    and so on.

    sorry about the spelling, must be the PS2

  3. When I were a lad.... on Exposing Children to Technology? · · Score: 1

    My first PC was a Sinclare ZX Spectrum 48K+ (dead-flesh keyboard was later replaced with the nice keyboard) which I started programming on at about 4 years old, if I recall it was because I saw my dad attempting to program it and I asked him how he made it do stuff, he showed me the ZX Basic manual and I was away!


    I also had a 25 in 1 (5 y/old), 50 in 1 (6 y/old) and 250 in 1 (7 y/old, build an AM transmiter with it!) electronics kits.

    If I am ever cursed with a human parasite (kid) then I think I will start the exposure to technology from birth but also mix in a good quantity of sport/kung-fu as I don't want no kid of mineto be a weiner!

  4. Lets just gloss over the PMM part on Self Contained Power Source? · · Score: 1

    If the mans made a better motor then fair play to him, although I suspect the motor is <100% effecient..
    Anything that can get green cars on the road faster is a good thing, now if he could turn his skills to say jamming more energy per m^3 into batteries I would be impressed.

  5. $2200??? on Build a Homemade Media Center PC · · Score: 1

    Mine has only cost £500ish ($800) and thats with the new hard disk and Creative Labs 7.1 Audigy + Giga works speakers.

    Come bonus time and another £300($500?) and I'll have a RAID-5 plus another 2 digital decoders (thankyou ebay!).

  8. Your arguments are all good and valid on Putting Star Wars to the MythBusters Test · · Score: 1

    But I think it is worth all of us to remember the words of Joel and Mike from the Saterlite of Love.

    "If your wondering how he eats and breaths and other science fact, just say to your self it's just a show and should realy just relax."

    That said I recon a light saber uses a magneticaly confined plasma stream that flows over a force feild thus giving it plasma cutting power with a solid core.

  11. A far more disturbing corolation on Need for Speed Unconnected to Fatal Crash · · Score: 1

    I'll wage that those kids had all consumed bread within 24 hours of that accident, same as Columbine, same as the 9/11 pilots, same as lee harvey the list goes on.. Think of any serious faital crime and I'll wage that bread was consumed less than 24 hours befor the act.

    This is conclusive proof of the damaging effect bread has on our children and I want it banned! Every year the bread manufacturers give billions of $/£ to the government, when questioned the IRS called it taxes but I have a far more disturbing name GOVERNMENT BRIBE

  12. I don't like where this is going on Russia to Mine on the Moon by 2020 · · Score: 1

    In order to mine the moon and transport He3 back to earth will require a lot of power. Logicaly if you have supply of He3 you might aswell build a fusion reactor on the moon, also inorder to rail-gun the fule pods accurately so they reach Earth orbit and not fly off into space you would need some form of LASER guidence.

    Okay lets recap.
    1) Fusion Reactor
    2) Frikken Laser Powered by a Fusion reactor
    3) On the Moon!

    Thats no MOON!

  17. Re:Why is it the Koreans? on South Korea To Develop Army and Police Robots · · Score: 1

    It's a cultural thing, the US build rescue and spy bots because millitary bots still cost more to get the same job done.

    Japan is just odd (see: cartoon pron) but if it keeps the little monkeys out of trouble then go! build more dancing robots!

    England has a secret army of droids we could use anytime to wipe out any nation and rebuild it in Sussex's glorious likeness... but we don't want to so we just shoot cheapy probes at mars that break on landing.

  19. Re:The DVD Box Set is available Now on Dr. Who on Sci-Fi Channel in March · · Score: 1

    Well if they arrest you for owning a region 2 in a region 1 zone they'll have to arrest me for owning many region 1's in region 2. The Regional encoding was setup to allow the studios and distributers to charge what ever they want in different markets (usualy cheaper in the US) by making the discs only work in thoese regions, I do not think they have a legal leg to stand on as long as you buy a legitimate copy. Apple-logies for spelling.

  20. Mornings...grrrr on Study: Waking Up Like Being Drunk · · Score: 1

    Waking up is like getting drunk in that I have an IQ of 12 and only a basic grasp of language. However far more potent is only sleeping 4 hours a day for 2 weeks then staying up 36+ hours to finish a 10,000 word dissertation. Towards the end I thought I was a hummming bird drinking nectar from a flower, disturbingly I woke up next to the toilet. Best I dont dwell.

  24. Re:Time to bite the bullet on Europe Warms to Nuclear Power · · Score: 1

    I just followed the link to the pebble reactor site, very impressive! I'm in favour of nuclear power as I think the hazzards of nuclear power are vastly over stated. Chernoble was an accident waiting to happen (who in their right mind turns off the safty systems!) yet it always sticks in peoples minds, I think the nuclear industry would do weel commissioning a series of frank adverts on TV stating the real risks and benifits of our glow-in-the-dark friend (Pebble reactors would put to be alot of fears).
