  1. All in the family... on Astronomers Make Important Dark Matter Discovery · · Score: 1

    Dark matter... not to be confused with it's biggot brother, anti-matter.

  2. Re:hello? on PayPal Security Flaw Allows Identity Theft · · Score: 1

    Regardless of what the article says, my point stands...

  3. hello? on PayPal Security Flaw Allows Identity Theft · · Score: 0, Troll

    Sorry, but if you are dumb enough to still fall for the "Update your account" email then you deserve to have your identity stolen.

  4. Sony? Hello? Are you there? on Sony May Try To Stop PS3 Game Resales · · Score: 1

    What are these fools at Sony thinking? Just hearing that they WANT to stop game resales makes me not want to spend $600 on a PS3... Let's see... DRM, $600 PS3, Wii knockoff gyro-motion controller, want to make games unable to be resold... that pretty much settles it for me! Sony needs a good talking to.

  5. Personally... on IBM and Fuji Announce Tape Storage Breakthrough · · Score: 1

    I'd rather use 500 1GB flash drives... there's no reason to keep all of that data in one place.

  6. What have we learned... on Spacecraft Crashes Into Satellite · · Score: 1

    Don't drink and orbit.

  7. Re:playing = believing? on 27 Playable Wii Games At E3 · · Score: 1

    In Thomas' case, yes, seeing was believing... however, the overall theme of the Bible and Jesus' teaching is faith... which is the polar opposite of seeing is believing. That's what I was getting at when I said it wasn't Biblical... I was refering to it not being taught in the Bible. As far as sources go, read any of the Gospels (Matthew, Mark, Luke, and John) and you will find that one of the overall themes as well as specific teachings have to do with faith.

    Regarding Thomas, just because somthing happened in the Bible doesn't mean it's a biblical teaching or principle. Make sense?

  8. Re:playing = believing? on 27 Playable Wii Games At E3 · · Score: 1

    Seeing is believing does NOT come from the Bible... just fyi...

  9. In all honesty... on Developers React To 'Wii' · · Score: 1

    Google is a pretty goofy sounding name too but NOBODY cares now that they have made their goofy name mean something.

  10. Whii? on Nintendo Revolution Renamed 'Wii' · · Score: 1

    This is just flat dumb. IMO.

  11. Personally... on The 360 Is Too Cheap? · · Score: 1

    I'd rather play with a stick in the dirt than pay $400 for this junk... *Thumbs Down*

  12. SMS Notifications... NICE! on Google Calendar · · Score: 1

    A really nice feature with Google Calendar is the SMS message notification option. You can input your cell phone information and Google Calendar will text message you (if you choose the option) as well as email you (if you choose) to remind you of your events. This avoids the "need to be at your computer to be reminded" problem with computer/internet based calendars. pretty slick! I'm still waiting on my SMS Verification code though... we'll see if it ever gets here.

  13. Good idea! on Viruses Engineered to Construct Batteries · · Score: 1

    I wonder who the first person was at MIT that thought, "Gee, maybe we could alter a virus and put it in our ears!"

  14. Re:Video Ipod? on Installing iPodLinux on the iPod Nano · · Score: 0, Troll

    the video ipod is 30GB or 60GB... will it work on those?

  15. Video Ipod? on Installing iPodLinux on the iPod Nano · · Score: 1

    Will this work on the Video ipod?

  16. Re:Curious on Sun Research Yields Unexpected Results · · Score: 1

    Helium is non-flammable... if there was a "lot" of helium in the sun it wouldn't burn.

  17. Personally... on Bluetooth Gets a Speed Boost · · Score: 3, Funny

    I prefer using wired connections... it gives me the security of knowing that if I fall off a cliff while talking on the phone I will at least have a tether.

  18. This just in... on Google Base Retail Rumours Confirmed · · Score: 1

    I can see it now... "Google suceedes from the US to form its own country... Matt Cutts is elected President of the UN."

  19. Let's think about it... on U.S. Internet Growth Stalling · · Score: 1

    That's like saying that small business in the US has reached its saturation point.

  20. Missing link? on New "Hairy Lobster" Crustacean Discovered and Classified · · Score: 1

    Since EVERYthing with hair is a direct descendant of man...

  21. crap... on Bacteria Eat Styrofoam · · Score: 1

    ...this could be the demise of shipping containers everywhere!

  22. Re:Heat Sink... literally! on Intel Unveils New Chips to Battle AMD · · Score: 1

    For me, it's all about reliability... Intel processors have proven to me that they are NOT reliable... I worked in a computer lab were we used only Intel processors and we ALWAYS had problems with them. I've worked with AMD powered PC's with equal or greater workload and I have NEVER had a problem with 1 AMD processor...

    Faster? Who cares! I know that my processor isn't going to explode and die... do you?

  23. Heat Sink... literally! on Intel Unveils New Chips to Battle AMD · · Score: 0, Troll

    With Intel's dual core processors, I expect them to require a heat "sink" larger than the computer case... I mean, seriously... every other intel processor runs super hot so I can imagine how hot this one will run!

  24. China next? on China Prepares to Launch Alternate Internet · · Score: 1

    IMD - Internet of Mass Destruction found in China... must liberate the oppressed chinese people... *gasp*

  25. One HUGE difference... on Google vs. eBay/PayPal · · Score: 1

    Google moved away from their core a couple years ago and in doing so they have just created a much larger core for themselves. At this point, they're all over the map. Nobody knows what to expect from Google these days, but whatever it is I expect it to be great!
