  1. The bigger questions still remain. on Possible Active Glacier Found On Mars · · Score: 0

    Now that we know there's lots of ice, are we any closer to finding out if Mars has a Santa?

  2. Evidence of a Supreme Being on Interstellar Dust Could Be "Alive" · · Score: 0, Redundant

    At last we have scientific evidence of God. Surely this is one of His noodley appendages.

  3. Apple on Couple Bonding Through PC Building · · Score: 0

    Try doing that with a Mac.

  4. This will solve the biggest mystery of all. on Mars Phoenix Probe Successfully Launched · · Score: 0

    Now we will finally find out if Mars has a Santa.

  5. MacGyver will be back... on Third Stargate TV Series Named · · Score: 0, Flamebait

    ...for Stargate III - The Search for More Money.

  6. Can we build a Stargate yet? on Long-lived Super Heavy Element Created · · Score: 0

    Very soon we'll have discovered Naquada!

  7. As Mr. Burns would say... on HD-DVD and Blu-Ray AACS DRM Cracked · · Score: 0

    Excellent. I might even consider siding with one of the competing formats now, but it depends on which one can be broken the most easily.

  8. Alien Tech on The Battle for Wireless Network Drivers · · Score: 1, Funny

    They don't want people to figure out that wireless network technology was actually discovered amongst the wreckage of the Roswell alien spaceship crash. If the open source developers are allowed to dig too deep, they'll discover the dilithium crystal in the heart of every wireless NIC!!!

  9. Re:Beautiful naked-eye sight on Shuttle Launch Success · · Score: 0

    HOPEFULLY there will be two small dots, and not a few million racing in close formation, but that could still happen on re-entry.

  10. Kaboom! on Shuttle Launch Success · · Score: 3, Funny

    Where's the kaboom? There was supposed to be an Earth shattering kaboom!

  11. Re:i have a nomination on 2006 Robot Hall of Fame Inductees Announced · · Score: 1

    Just to scare you even more, that robot girl was real!!! She's still around and continuing her acting, but she changes her name all the time so you never realise she's not growing older. You can see her in Poltergeist and Aliens playing young girls, and currently she's getting around with the name Dakota Fanning.

  12. Disgraceful on 2006 Robot Hall of Fame Inductees Announced · · Score: 1

    I'm shocked that Dakota Fanning wasn't even nominated!

  13. Don't call me tiny. on Samsung Steals the Brain Behind the iPod · · Score: 1

    Does it have to have that picture of Mr. Sulu on it, or can that be changed?

  14. Re:Nothing to see here... on Mind Control Parasites in Half of All Humans · · Score: 3, Funny

    It's not toxoplasma, it's midi-chlorians! Lucas sucks.

  15. Old news. on No Time Travel, Sorry · · Score: 1

    The Vulcan Science Directorate has already concluded that time travel is impossible.

  16. Re:other electrical benefits of teeth on Shark 6th Sense Related to Human Evolution? · · Score: 1

    They can detect ion-charged emissions and operate as synthetic beam locators at a distance of up to twenty thousand light years. They're also extremely firm.

  17. Re:Expectations aren't that high on Duke Nukem Forever in Production · · Score: 1

    In Korea, only old people play DNF.

  18. Re:The secret on Apple Surpasses Dell's Market Value · · Score: 1

    I was under the impression that there's no such thing as "it's" in the possessive sense and that it was simply "its". I thought this was the one exception where possessive is not denoted with an appended "'s".

  19. Re:It's hard to uninstall Symantec software on Rootkit-like Feature Found in Norton Systemworks · · Score: 1

    Agreed. Acronis was the best alternative to PowerQuest when they were eaten by Symantec, and now in my opinion they're the ones at the forefront of disk imaging software.

  20. Re:It's hard to uninstall Symantec software on Rootkit-like Feature Found in Norton Systemworks · · Score: 1

    The current Ghost products are simply rebadged products they gained through their purchase of PowerQuest. Ghost was dying a slow drawn out death until this move. I was very bummed when I heard the news, since I respected PowerQuest and I'm familar with Symantec's strategy of just buying out the competitors and then letting the new software acquisitions die a horrible death by not continuing to develop them. Look at WinFax - Dead. Look at Act! - I think they sold it off after killing it through neglect. Look at pcanywhere - going absolutley nowhere. Now they have Veritas in their pocket, and I have no doubt I'll be forced to use alternative products once Symantec have done their work with BackupExec. Oh, I'll also add that North Internet Security is the biggest load of horse crap I've ever seen. I can configure enterprise level firewalls and security products with ease, and yet I find NIS difficult to use, unintuitive, inconsistant, contradictory, a huge resource hog, and sometimes difficult to remove. I have a pet hate against it and I won't bother trying to help anyone using it unless they agree to unistall it. Symantec sucks.

  21. Re:OMG how hold is this? on Scanjet Music · · Score: 1

    I was doing this with a 5.25 inch floppy drive on the Commodore 64 back in the 80s. Yawn.

  22. Re:Intelligent Design on Raining Extraterrestrial Microbes in Kerala? · · Score: 1

    No, clearly this is bolognaise from the Flying Spaghietti Monster.
