  1. It's unmanned on Iran Unveils Flying Saucer Using Old B-Movie Stock Photo · · Score: 0

    They claim it's an "unmanned" vehicle carrying a GPS and a camera. So it can be small in size and you don't need rocket science to make that. It could even be a flying saucer toy equipped with GPS, camera and fancy cover.

  2. Just 50 people? on Indian Military Organization To Develop Its Own OS · · Score: 0

    Then to spend years to patch its vulnerabilities.

  3. Re:Name on Developers Fork Mandriva Linux, Creating Mageia · · Score: 1, Insightful

    Because all user friendly .com's are taken. (Well, .org's as well.)

  4. what's code? on Apple Relaxes iOS Development Tool Restrictions · · Score: 0

    as long as "the resulting apps do not download any code".

    What's considered code? Anything that you interpret/execute as commands that conform to a specific grammar/language? So is HTML code now? How can one define "code" that HTML, for example, would be excluded?

  5. Against reduction to numbers on Researchers Say Happiness Costs $75K · · Score: 0

    Depending on the country you live in this correlation could simply collapse.

    The problem looks NP-Hard to me.

  7. Re:stronger brand on It's Official — AMD Will Retire the ATI Brand · · Score: 0

    ("defeated-by-intel" indeed... shut up fanboy)

    I like AMD but this is the popular belief of an average consumer who can distinguish Intel and AMD. Call it advertisement or whatever but unfortunately this is how brands work.

    BTW.. the parent is still 'Offtopic'!

  8. Re:It's a nice framework on Rails 3.0 Released · · Score: 1

    But I do wish the community would grow up.

    But from my experience, I think the community is already big and grown up enough to base your serious application on Rails.

  9. Anonymous Coward? on Rails 3.0 Released · · Score: -1, Offtopic

    Come on, Steve Ballmer!

  10. oh on Rails 3.0 Released · · Score: 0, Redundant

    I can hear my 2.3.8 app breaking!

  11. stronger brand on It's Official — AMD Will Retire the ATI Brand · · Score: 0, Offtopic

    I think ATI was a more reputable brand than AMD that has to carry Defeated-by-Intel badge for years.

  12. Re:Bulldozer? on AMD Details Upcoming Bulldozer Architecture · · Score: 1

    I wonder what it aims to bulldoze. Intel? Definitely not a good name.

  13. Re:The problem with leap seconds... on 'Leap Seconds' May Be Eliminated From UTC · · Score: 2, Funny

    try
    {
    adjustEarthsOrbit();
    }catch(...)
    {
    //TODO Ask Larry.
    reboot();
    }

  14. oracle? on 'Leap Seconds' May Be Eliminated From UTC · · Score: 1

    Can someone explain what kind of business the Oracle cluster was doing with the seconds?!

    Tries to help nerds get to know what's happening.

  16. Re:Farsi?? on Iran Unveils Its First UAV Bomber · · Score: 1

    True. Persian is the English word for "Farsi", that is a Persian word.

  17. Re:Foreshadowing. on Sweden Defends Wiki Sex Case About-Face · · Score: 2, Interesting

    We need two Jullian Assanges; We need many!

  18. Re:Don't know what to say... on Iran Opens Its First Nuclear Power Plant · · Score: 1

    They claim they have no gays...

    'He' claims.

  19. Re:Yeah right on Iran Opens Its First Nuclear Power Plant · · Score: 2, Informative

    It's not a nuclear plant. It's just a bunch of camels running on treadmills.

    But there aren't that many camels in Iran, despite the cliché that people have in mind.

  20. boundaries of computer science on Google Kills Wave Development · · Score: 1

    Google writes in the blog post that Wave has "pushed the boundaries of computer science." And how exactly?!

    I remembered someone had build the same thing back in 2002, in RoboCup 2002 conference and competitions in Fukuoka - Japan.

  22. World! on RIAA Lied To Congress About New Filesharing Suits · · Score: 1

    Maybe they're just taking a broad view of the world "initiate."

    Ahh, world!

  23. Re:THE FACTS on Seagate Firmware Update Bricks 500GB Barracudas · · Score: 2, Funny

    Our phones are flooded so bad that it locks the system up when there are too many calls in queue

    You should look for a firmware update for your phones too!

  24. Kidding me? on HP Accused of Illegal Exportation To Iran · · Score: 1

    They're definitely joking! Just take a trip to Iran and see there are not even printers, but also high-end servers and everything that you can imagine available from HP (or Dell, Cisco or whatever name in your mind.)
