  1. Re:Light != dangerous on X Prize For a 100-MPG Car · · Score: 1

    the problem in this case is not the hummer, but the dickhead behind the steering wheel. get the dickheads off the road.

  2. Re:Key concepts on X Prize For a 100-MPG Car · · Score: 1

    yes, real germans would say that.

  3. Re:Artists funding this action on RIAA Can't Have Defendant's Son's Desktop · · Score: 1

    can't say, whether amy winehouse sucks or not, her songs though suck very much.

  4. Re:Another desperate attempt. on Delphi For PHP Released · · Score: 2, Informative

    no, no, it's resting.

    now serious: delphi is still the best tool for developing win32 apps and it is still widely used in europe.

    i use windows mobile devices for years and also write software for them.

  6. Re:Price on Will The iPhone Kill The iPod? · · Score: 1

    well, i have recently bought a htc universal for 380 euros (used). it is about $500, quite a lot of money for a phone, but it was worth it.
    won't ever buy an iphone, though - why should i pay such an amount of money for a crippled device?

  7. Re:Great ! on Dell Refunds Vista/Works With Two Emails · · Score: 1

    you do modify the name. you can modify the timestamp just as easily.

  8. Re:Too bad (Looking for investors!) on Google Says "We're Not Doing a Mobile Phone" · · Score: 1

    well, my dream phone would be an ipaq hx4700 with gsm+umts and wm6.

  9. Re:After Germany was reunited. on Dell Refunds Vista/Works With Two Emails · · Score: 2, Informative

    nope, that is already reserved for netherlands.

  10. Re:Great ! on Dell Refunds Vista/Works With Two Emails · · Score: 1

    easy solution: sort them by the date.
    why do humans have to make the job easier for the computers, where computers have been created to make such jobs easier for humans?

  11. Re:Disturbing anyone? on RIAA Going After a 10-Year-Old Girl · · Score: 5, Informative

    well, normally such a question isn't even worth an answer. but in this case, i make an exception

    no, he isn't right. the riaa at partly run by sony bmg, which is half japanese half german. while there are some jews in germany, they are pretty non-existent in japan. so his first claim is wrong.
    there are kibbutz communities in israel, where jews actually do quite a lot of manual labour. so his second claims is wrong.
    his other claims all base on these two wrong claims and thus are also wrong.

    is your question answered now?

  12. possible use in humans? on Single Gene Gives Mice Three-Color Vision · · Score: 5, Interesting

    is it possible to genetically alter humans to make them tetrachromats, thus making them able to see UV like fishes and birds do?

  13. Re:Could rubbish music have something to do with i on CD Music Sales Down 20% In Q1 2007 · · Score: 1

    said someone who listens to porcupine tree.
    most of them are also elitists, including myself.

  14. Re:Bruce Dickenson's School for the Gifted on Gifted Children Find Heavy Metal Comforting · · Score: 1

    well, songs of pink floyd don't sound all alike, you know. and the lightshow was also better.

  15. Re:I program to metal on Gifted Children Find Heavy Metal Comforting · · Score: 1

    pray tell me, what do aeolian and pentatonic scales have to do with metal in the whole and iron maiden specifically.

    most music revolves around scales. pentatonic scales for soloing were used in blues long before the guitarists of iron maiden were even born, aeolian scale was created in the ancient greece.

    just a note: i personally don't like metal at all and prefer good progressive rock like pink floyd, porcupine tree (until in absentia), marillion and so on.

  16. Re:Bruce Dickenson's School for the Gifted on Gifted Children Find Heavy Metal Comforting · · Score: 1

    i was at the iron maiden concert last year and was bored to hell. bad sound, the songs were all alike. watching one of guitarists repeatedly throwing his strat and catching it was fun, though.

    a couple of days after that i have seen the machine (a pink floyd tribute band) playing wywh and the wall. that was the best gig i've ever seen.

  17. Re:Gifted find *eating* heavy metal comforting on Gifted Children Find Heavy Metal Comforting · · Score: 1

    gift is the german word for poison. so they would be still gifted, just in a different language.

  18. Re:My problem with Prius on Hummer Greener Than Prius? · · Score: 1

    no it shouldn't. the higher fuel prices in europe have lead to more fuel efficient cars which is good.

  19. Re:My problem with Prius on Hummer Greener Than Prius? · · Score: 1

    your problem with prius is the cheap fuel. when you pay $5/gal (average european fuel price) it surely starts to look differently

  20. Re:Good for repetitive-stress injury sufferers on Scientists Demonstrate Thought-Controlled Computer · · Score: 1

    for me, guitar playing, natural keyboard and a digitizer instead of a mouse have helped much.

  21. Re:The absolute ultimate dream machine. on What Would Be Your Dream Machine? · · Score: 1

    what's the problem? i actually like the idea.
    a robotic woman without any quirks real women got would be really cool.

  22. silent and fast on What Would Be Your Dream Machine? · · Score: 1

    well...

    core 2 duo passive cooled
    two gigs of ram
    a silent psu
    quad raid 0 made of a real hardware raid card and 4 sandisk extreme III 16 gb cf cards
    any decent passive cooled 3d graphics card (got a radeon 9800 pro with heatpipe now)
    a really good soundcard
    19" tft display with a mva screen
    microsoft natural 4000 keyboard and a DIN A5 size wacom digitizer

    and no, i am not into graphics, i just use the digitizer instead of a mouse, because of less wrist pain (rsi sucks).

  23. Re:Headline Incorrect. on US University Dumps Windows to go All Mac · · Score: 1

    sure?
    there is nothing special about apple hardware nowadays, they are just the same generic pcs. the only reason to use macs would be osx.
