  1. clones on UK Scientists to Create Embryo From Two Women · · Score: -1, Offtopic

    Genetical engineering - STOP! Who knows maybe they'll clone Bill Gates someday..

    Oh i forget...he is copyrighted ;)

  2. Re:In other words... on Developing Firefox Extensions with GNU/Linux · · Score: 0

    As Firefox's market share grows, so will the number of websites that advertise Firefox plugins, and unaware users will be just as susceptible to malware and viruses as they were with IE.

    People love fast,secure and small solutions not just slow-unstable-toys,and i'am affraid about evolution of ff right now.We all know what happened with winamp..

    Its just like changing geek into pop-star.
    "God save firefox!"

  3. around the universe in 80 days! on Earth Departure Movie From MESSENGER Spacecraft · · Score: 0

    Impressive..I mean space travels may really change your point of view.

    Buy the ticket today and change your point of view without reading any book and without installing unix!

  4. Infinity on Evidence of 6 Dimensions or More? · · Score: 0

    Personally I think(feel) that universe has got infinite dimensions and after discovering new dimensions we can still find new one.Of course i cannot prove this theory and hmm its just a feeling but please note that its currently possible that universe is infinite in _every_ possible meaning.

    after disciovering atoms we discovered electrons/protons and then researchers discovered quarks etc.

    I believe that universe is (somehow) defined recursively.Propably God is Unix-geek and created this with -r option ;-)

  5. Re:So what? on New Winzip in the Works · · Score: -1, Redundant

    yeah youre right.I mean these new guys are pretty lame :P

  6. Internet-2 on Worms Could Dodge Net traps · · Score: 1

    I want to suggest one thing ,in my opinion very important..

    We're talking all the time about security of internet,about net-monitoring ,packets filtering, and what really irritates me IPv6 security.
    Please note that nobody complain about such solutions everyone believes that they're (or will be) elegant and helpful.
    My questuion is..what do you think goverment(NSA) will do with such 'security tools' ha?
    So we're not talking about security but we're also talking about Privacy and Freedom of internet-2.

    Someday we will wake-up with all-monitored-internet-2 ..and it will be too late.

    echelon2=internet2?

    Or maybe I'm just paranoid? ha?

  7. Re:More technical? on Code Auditing the Defcon Way · · Score: 2, Insightful

    "What it takes to be an elite hacker is to find vulnerabilities in custom software," said the Kenshoto member. "It is not code auditing per se. They have to reverse engineer, and we have made it difficult to reverse engineer."

    real-Reverse Engineering under linux ?!? forget about it.
    i mean the system is free ,98% of software is free.Therefore there are no commercial _exe_packers_ (i've never heard about it) so RE is not as hard as under Win where anything can be packed in example with Asprotect.If there were new asprotect for unix systems then it would be real RE challenge...

  8. Re:Wonderful !?!? on Clickers Redefining Classrooms · · Score: 2, Interesting

    > This is just great. Lets teach our kids how to close their brains even more.

    Yeah I think that's international tendence.It is great for politicians ,stupid people = absolute reign.

    > Instead of using the wonderfully flexible english language, these kids are going to down to a couple of choices. A, B or C.

    I tell you this..here in Poland we had old-good-education-system.But when we joined European Union (great,really!) we had to change _everything_ according to EU standarts.That's why our minister changed education system.
    Few years ago student had to pass really tough ,but also interesting "mature exam".You had to write very long essay, you had to be smart,you had to use use flexible language...morover to pass exam you needed to gain 50% + 1 points.
    Nowadays student can only choice answer /a/b/c/d or write few words...and to pass you need only 30%!

    That's idiotic!

  9. Re:now correct me if im wrong on U.S. Moves to Kill Leap Seconds · · Score: 1

    "Should the convenience of lazy computer programmers triumph over the rising of the sun? To the government, which worries about safety more than astronomy, the answer is yes."

    thats it.

    ppl affraid about y2k problem but think this is so easy to change duration of minute.That may lead to serious trouble.

    Q:What is square? A:Wheel invented by Microsoft. ..by the way In my opinion the one thing MS really invented is re-invention. ;-)

  11. Re:I use Firefox! Why? on Firefox Downloads Reach 75 Million · · Score: 1

    I know that it may sounds funny but the truth is that people affraid of changes.When I present Free/Open soft to average user he is dissapointed.WindowMaker will be difficult to use for my uncle.OpenOffice? Forget about it.98% of users are shaped by MS.But when I present Firefox to J.Randomuser he believe that he is still using IE! Really! Sometimes after repairing _someones_ computer I install FF and change start menu links. "Hey dude try your new Internet Explorer" ;-) they really like it.
