  1. Re:Wow, watch the paint dry too. on Overclocked Radeon Card Breaks 1 GHz · · Score: 1

    Snooze for nerds...

  2. BFD! on Overclocked Radeon Card Breaks 1 GHz · · Score: 1

    Mine goes to eleven.

  3. This one goes to 11. on Today's Fastest Retail LCD · · Score: 1

    Is it even possible for a human to perceive the difference between, say, 3ms and 6ms?

  4. You are educated stupid! on Wilma the Capacitor and Particle Accelerator · · Score: 1

    Particle accelerator? I'm sorry. It all just sounds a little "time-cubish" to me.

  5. Where does the water come from? on The Car That Makes Its Own Fuel · · Score: 1

    Perhaps a stupid question, but fresh water is getting harder to come by. Anyone living in the Western U.S. knows what a problem this is becoming. I realize that the Earth is 70% water, but that's mostly sea water. It seems to me that such a vehicle is going to need distilled water to avoid a significant buildup of minerals. That means a lot of desalination plants, and a lot of energy going into making fresh water.

  6. From the Dept. of Redundancy Dept. on VoIP Security Threats Defined · · Score: 1

    Part of the challenge of devising effective VoIP security protections requires, to begin with, first identifying these threats in the first place, for starters, at the outset, initially.

  7. Re:Makes me laugh. on Sweden's File Sharing Debate Becomes Mass Brawl · · Score: 2, Insightful

    I disagree, and the reason is because people are like crack addicts when it comes to music. And the music industry knows it.

  8. I already have Windows Vista on Windows Vista Build 5231 Review · · Score: 1

    I already have Windows Vista on one of my computers. It's called OS X.

  9. It'll be fifty years before they even start work. on Italy To Build World's Longest Suspension Bridge · · Score: 1

    This is Italy, after all. Maybe in a couple of hundred years it will be finished.

  10. Re:Intelligent Deisgn! on Good bye Dark Matter, Hello General Relativity · · Score: 1

    We should probably start with teaching spelling, then maybe work our way up to Intelligent "Deisgn" [sic].

  11. Re:Who is this stupid f***er? on Taking On Software Liability - Again · · Score: 1

    I see. So he's just an ass, who has deluded himself into thinking that all his programs are perfect.

  12. I thought the answer was 42. on 300 Years to Index the World's Information · · Score: 3, Funny

    Ask a stupid question...

  13. Who is this stupid f***er? on Taking On Software Liability - Again · · Score: 0, Troll

    Has he even ever written a program in his life? Idiot.

  14. Re:Which Big Cat? on Mystery Australian Big Cat Shot · · Score: 1

    Because both leopards and pumas (as well as Jaguars) come in all-black varieties, like the animal in the picture.

  15. Water, water everywhere.... on First Look at GIMP 2.4 · · Score: 1

    Why, with all the great features the GIMP has, does it still lack a simple shape drawing mechanism? A feature even MS Paint has.

  16. Re:Gold Plated Cat5 on TCP/IP Speakers · · Score: 1

    $1449.99 each. EACH. At that price you should be able to drive them down to the store.

  17. The good and bad of this new technology. on Tech Geezers vs. Young Bloods · · Score: 1

    Yes, thanks to modern technology it is now possible to argue with your nagging spouse ALL DAY LONG, instead of only a couple of hours.

  18. How depressing on ESA Selects Targets for Asteroid Deflection Test · · Score: 0, Offtopic

    Man, my job is so boring compared to those guys at the ESA.

  19. Re:G... on GoogleTV Coming Soon? · · Score: 1

    I bow to your superior intallect.

    That shouldn't be too hard for you.

  20. Re:Human greed knows no bounds on Global Warming Past The Point of No Return · · Score: 1

    Please think about the future generations...

    I dunno. Have you seen the future generation? They're usually running around screaming at the restaurant, or disturbing me while I try to watch a movie.

    No, I'm sorry. The argument is not convincing.

  21. Not much of a surprise here on Ladies and Gentlemen Allow Me to Introduce the Cat Car · · Score: 2, Funny

    I've always felt there was some kind of relationship between cars and pussy.

  22. Re:NOVA ran a program on gamma ray bursts... on Furthest Gamma-Ray Burst Ever Observed · · Score: 1

    So the observable universe for your hypothetical Enterprise would be different from ours, as it would be able to see light which had not reached Earth.

    Which brings up a matter which I've often wondered about. If we observe a star at position X. What we are really observing is that star at that position Y number of years ago. In reality that star's actual position now is somewhere else, correct?

    So when we read or watch Sci Fi, and people are flitting about the galaxy, or whatever, it seems navigation much be a real bitch. Maybe impossible.

  23. New Japanese bromide created... on Hayabusa Probe Arrives at Destination · · Score: 1

    We can put a Hayabusa on an Itokawa, but we still can't cure the common cold.

  24. Re:Uh? on How About a Nice Game of Global Thermonuclear War? · · Score: 1

    Don't come with the theory that that is only a matter of time, North Korea does not have access to the resources to come anywhere near.

    Hmmm. They used to say the same thing about China in the 50's.

  25. Re:Get Ready For Apocalyptic Physics! on Recent Solar Flare Could Disrupt Communications · · Score: 1

    Have you seen this parody?
