  1. Re:Good news on Web Based Rhapsody Targets Linux · · Score: 1

    I certainly will be using this. I subscribe to rhapsody (which, BTW is a separate app from RealPlayer). This solves two problems for me. First, now I can listen to music in linux through rhapsody. Second, because it's web-based, I can use it at school, where I cannot install programs. This is a great thing for me. If you don't like their service, it isn't for you. That's a given, so who cares.

  2. Re:24 million years ago? on LBT Publishes "First Light" Image · · Score: 2, Insightful

    Aside from the fact that history tells us how we got here, we assume that the laws of the universe are not dependent on WHEN something occurs. So some physical event which took place hundreds of millions of years ago is no less important than what is happening now. Either way, we can only watch and learn.

  3. Re:Mooninites on Hubble Zooms In On Moon Minerals · · Score: 1

    I'm dissapointed that this isn't rated higher. I hope that you all feel ashamed for not getting this joke.

  4. The laws are NOT the problem! on CAFTA Treaty Exports DMCA · · Score: 1

    OK... I'm getting kind of sick of everyone acting like the industry thrusts this stuff down their throats. 1. Don't vote for people who support this stuff. 2. That won't work... so don't by the crap. The only way to force a reasonable limit to IP protection is to enforce it with money. Don't buy from RIAA or MPAA. There's lots of great music out there so no whining about it. If you can't put your money where your mouth is, stop complaining. If you can, then tell all of your friends. Start a campaign if you can. That's the only way it will work. Don't fret about the laws... it's a market -- treat it as such.

  5. Re:Life, evolution, everything... on Titan Moon's Bright Hot Spot · · Score: 3, Informative
    Everyone has a religion.

    "Everyone you say who says that they have no religious beliefs is just so certain about their belief that they accept it as truth. If you just start asking probing questions, and they start getting mad, then you've found their religion." --Orson Scott Card.

    We now know yours. Hugs. :)

    BTW, Mormons beleive there is life on other planets as a matter of religion. I'm sure they're not the only ones.

  6. Re:What puzzles games do you know? on 2005 Google U.S. Puzzle Championship · · Score: 1

    There's an old MS Pocketpc game called cinco that is like mindmaster with five-letter words. Push-push on my old samsung phone was the best. Hercule for the palm was good too.

  7. Re:I obviously could never compete. on 2005 Google U.S. Puzzle Championship · · Score: 1

    There's actually a link to "get the password," in number three. It's confusing because it is referring to the actual test. The link does work for the practice test, however.

  8. Re:Transhumans beat all. on 2005 Google U.S. Puzzle Championship · · Score: 2, Funny

    What the hell is a transhuman, and why don't I have one??

  9. NOOOO! on Might Episodes VII - IX Still Be Made? · · Score: 1

    I did NOT sit through like nine hours of movies and watch some sith lord rise to power and then get his ass kicked just so I could see it happen all over again. No way.

  10. Re:I NEVER thought I'd say this, but... on Library to Require Fingerprint to Use PCs · · Score: 1

    I think the direct connection to GW is much less important than the principles being taught. Average Joe American won't know what hit him, but it WILL affect him. We need more of this... but only when it teaches that with which I agree.
