  7. firmware update on "Iron Man" Release Brings Down Paramount's Servers · · Score: 0

    actually, its quite simple. with readily available firmware updates, drives would most likely receive an update telling devices to check for content manually instead of at start up. problem solved.

  10. ray ray, go away on Astronomers Find Stars 7 Billion Light Years Away · · Score: 0

    we are now just seeing the light, but how long has the light been... um, lighting us up? how much more can we expect to find or do we just have to wait until things start heating up?

  11. what killed the dinosaurs the second time? on Putting Anti-Evolution Candidates On the Spot · · Score: 0
    when they went extinct due to a natural calamity (volcanos, comets, climate, etc.) did everything else get extinct along with them? my question being, how did evolution continue past this point?

    if (most) everything went extinct, evolution would have started from CHON, bacteria or whatever the most simplest form of life that had survived. this would have inevitably led to more dinosaurs, evolution would have seen to it. they are more advanced and CHON, bacteria, etc. and there are present day ancestors to dinosaurs in the animal kingdom now.

    on the other hand, lets say that a more advanced animal or other form of life did survive the mass extinction of dinosaurs. with evolution moving forward, how did the more simple forms of life come back into being? i just cant find out how bugs and butterflies got back into the system.

    but then again, maybe it was only the dinosaurs that went kaput and their more advanced relatives survived along with some of the more simple puddle creatures. but one would expect those puddle creatures to once again turn into dinosaurs. the two starting points would end with the first running into the second, over a period of evolutionary time.

    all told, i still want to know who killed the dinosaurs the second time...

  15. intel subsidizes apple? on Apple Should Get Out of Hardware? · · Score: 0
    Intel is unlikely to continue to subsidize Apple, the analyst argues.

    i am an apple user. i make my living fixing PCs. one of the hurdles to switching (along with the FUD) were the high prices. i find it hard to believe that intel is subsiding anything here.

    that having been said, if these subsidies were to actually exist, i can say as an apple user that the prices could go up and i wouldnt stop using (do heroin addicts barter for price? no, they use!)

    one final thought, reading the article (i know, you're not supposed to read the actual article) i cant help but wonder how much dell stock this gartner analyst has.

  17. Re:V is for Vuh-yeah-right. on V For Vendetta Delayed until March 2006 · · Score: 1

    its like the spokesperson only though he was partially anonymous. why else would he deny the reasons for the delay yet give us other truthful information...?

  18. you'll know less on Quantum Information Can be Negative · · Score: 2, Funny

    What you've just said is one of the most insanely idiotic things I have ever heard. At no point in your rambling, incoherent response were you even close to anything that could be considered a rational thought. Everyone in this room is now dumber for having listened to it. I award you no points, and may God have mercy on your soul.
