  1. Re:RTFS - 14-32cm only for thermal expansion on Sea Level Rise Can't Be Stopped · · Score: 1

    It's funny that you are so adamant about something that can be disproved with a simple Google search.

  2. Re:The one they always overlook on The Time Travel Paradoxes of Back To the Future · · Score: 1

    Movement and position is always relative to something else. You cannot say that the time machine should "stand still" when traveling in time, because nothing in the universe "stands still", ever. So the machine must have some point of reference, and the simplest reference is simply the ground it is standing on.

  3. Re:You morons don't unstand how Super SATA works on Calling Shenanigans On Super SATA's Claimed Audio Qualities · · Score: 1

    So the zeros are converted to .svg before they are sent? Makes sense to me.

  4. Re:A fool and his money... on Calling Shenanigans On Super SATA's Claimed Audio Qualities · · Score: 1

    I don't know if a "duh" or a "whoosh" is more appropriate here. :-)

    No. Using a program to check that the order of bits coincide is not subject to any form of bias.

  7. Re:Purple Bricks - go to lego.com on Lego 'CubeDudes' By PIXAR Animator · · Score: 1

    They look more like pink to me, not the kind of purple you'd want for the Joker.

  8. Re:Am I the only one? on 'Forest Bathing' Considered Healthful · · Score: 1

    Nope. I didn't know healthful was a word.

  9. Re:1934 on AU Band Men At Work Owes Royalties On 'Kookaburra' · · Score: 1

    Politicians have brains?

  10. Re:Finally! on StarCraft II To Be Released On July 27 · · Score: 1

    That means I have waited half my life, too. Cool.

  11. Re:Hope they learned a lesson on Ubisoft's Authentication Servers Go Down · · Score: 1

    Oh hell no, in a few cycles my karma would have dropped to that of a Digg user. I'd rather not have to suffer the consequences of my First post!!!111:s.

  12. Re:It's the freeloaders time on Ars Technica Inveighs Against Ad Blocking · · Score: 1

    If I had mod points and you could me modded to +10, you would have gotten them all.

  13. Re:Browser down. on Firefox 3.5 Now the Most Popular Browser Worldwide · · Score: 1

    I actually laughed out loud. Oh, if I had mod points...

  14. Re:Global warming? on Japan Eyes Solar Station In Space · · Score: 1

    Even if the sun catched by the solar panels of the satellite wouldn't have hit Earth anyway, the area of the solar panels is so small compared to the face of Earth that it does not matter.

  15. Re:Reversing the polarity of the electron discharg on Antimatter In Lightning · · Score: 1

    The Illuminati are likely funding this through their fronts. They likely want to attain knowledge or power that will be used to tighten their control over the masses,so they can reinforce their belief they are God like. And if it fails, they don't care if they destroy the world in the attempt.

    To the defense of answerbag.com, they never claim that the answers found on their site are correct.

  16. Re:WTF Yahoo! on Geocities Shutting Down Today · · Score: 1

    Is there a "slashdotted" .gif? They appear to need one of those now.

  17. Re:Internet Archived; Time to Move On on Geocities Shutting Down Today · · Score: 1

    Funny, I was just about to suggest that, logged in, and there was already a recommendation. But yeah, dropbox is very good, you get 2 GB of free storage and it is about as user-friendly as it can get.

  18. Re:Quantum CPU extensions? on Making Cesium Atoms Do a Quantum Walk · · Score: 1

    No. Maybe corresponds to a 1 probability of something being true. In a quantum computer, the probability of true is 1 and the probability of false is 1, thus the "yes and no".

  19. Re:flat on Study Highlights Gap Between Views of Scientists and the Public · · Score: 1

    I see you have never used Wikipedia before. The article is not the proof, the sources of the article are. Welcome to the 21st century, AC.

  20. Re:reality is librul on Study Highlights Gap Between Views of Scientists and the Public · · Score: 1

    A personal attack and an astounding ignorance of basic maths - it's all the fine points of Slashdot, condensed into a single sentence!

  21. Re:Ah.. on Real Nanotechnology Getting Closer, Says Drexler · · Score: 1

    It is unlikely that the neurons will be microchips, connected by copper wires. A more reasonable prophecy is that the neurons are simulated by software, and a single impulse between two neurons will not be a single electrical signal, but quite a number (storing a number in memory, accessing the number, etc...). Perhaps someone more into mips and flops than me could crunch the numbers.

  22. Re:There is no debate on World Copyright Summit and the Lies of the Copyright Industry · · Score: 1

    By that definition, it is my right to murder anyone. Doesn't seem like a very good definition, does it?

  23. Re:The Mysterious Reoccurrence of Mr. Freckles on Most Blogs Now Abandoned · · Score: 1

    Funny, perhaps, but true. BjÃrn is a Swedish word that is pronounced very similar to the "bjourn" in webjournal. It means "bear", and it is also a common given name.

    For some reason, Slashdot garbles my characters. Imagine à being a o with two dots over.

    That goes to show how far you read.

  25. Re:I'll Be Damned on Why Text Messages Are Limited To 160 Characters · · Score: 1

    It's awfully glib to say we shouldn't be upset about being ripped off just because we have a choice. In a free market, with healthy competition, the price of goods and services should fall to just above their actual cost. That obviously isn't happening with SMS: customers would like to pay less, but no one is offering SMS for less, even though it costs almost nothing to provide. Doesn't that suggest a market failure?

    I don't know about the US, but here in Sweden, a lot of mobile plans come with free SMS (up to a limit of 3000 per month or something like that). Also, often you can buy free SMS as an addition to a normal plan for ~$7 a month. It sounds like our market is ahead of yours?
