  1. Re:Sweet on Supreme Court Holds Right to Bear Arms Applies to Individuals · · Score: 1

    Common sense substantiates what he is saying.

    FACT: Criminals don't follow the law.

    FACT: Law abiding citizens do.

    Whatever study you're reading must therefore redefine "Law abiding" to mean, "Well, not really THAT law abiding, kinda crooked" or, redefines "Dirty Rotten Crook" as perhaps "Misunderstood."

  2. Design on Mars Soil Appears To Be Able To Sustain Life · · Score: 0, Redundant

    I know this comment won't be popular, but so be it.

    Another reason to believe the universe was designed. What are the chances of our planetary neighbor being able to support plant life?

    ..or the right for people to have bear arms.

    PROJECT PHASES:
    Phase 1: Uncritical acceptance.
    Phase 2: Wild enthusiasm.
    Phase 3: Dejected disillusionment.
    Phase 4: Total confusion.
    Phase 5: Search for the guilty.
    Phase 6: Punishment of the innocent.
    Phase 7: Promotion of nonparticipants.

  5. Of Course on GE Microbes Make Ersatz Crude Oil From Many Sources · · Score: 2, Interesting

    *Sigh* Another daily miracle oil-solving remedy. How long before this "solution" drifts into the background, never to be heard from again?

    You don't get any for cursing at me under "Anonymous Coward" either.

    >>Obama shall not pass

    I thought that was the black knight's slogan to Arthur, King of the Britons.

  9. Re:Everything NBC touches turns to shit on Sci-Fi Channel Merging TV Show with MMO · · Score: 0

    They still haven't learned that sci fi and horror are not the same thing.

    Seriously, I thought that the last season of Battlestar Galactica was going to be a three-way Cylon-Colonial-Vampire battle.

  10. Coherent on Room Temperature Semiconductor of T-Rays · · Score: 0

    I for one welcome our coherent radiating overlords.

  11. Re:So... on DOE Pumps $126.6 Million Into Carbon Sequestration · · Score: 0

    There's not enough space in a whole desert for both to coexist?

    You see a problem where none exists.

  12. Re:We're doomed! on 3D Self-Replicating Printer to be Released Under GNU License · · Score: 0

    All it takes is for a few million folks with these printers to accidentally print a 600 page "document" with another printer on each page.

  13. Re:Identical photons? on Scientists Build New Type of Photon Gun · · Score: 0

    Right, just like in the academy.

  14. Re:Secrecy is fine when it protects individual rig on Swiss Bank Secrecy Under Renewed Attack · · Score: 0, Insightful

    I'm sure that since this time it's the Democrats wanting to get into people's secrecy, it must be all just a big misunderstanding.

  15. Re:More interesting is on Very Large Array Gets Expanded Capability · · Score: -1, Redundant

    Here's the obligatory "I for one welcome our Jovian wireless overlords" post.

  16. Re:Er, yeah... on The Life of a Software Engineer · · Score: 1, Funny

    A software developer must be part writer and poet, part salesperson and public speaker, part artist and designer, and always equal parts logic and empathy.

  17. Nonsense on iPhone Forcing Open Wireless Networks? · · Score: 0

    Allegedly Verizon turned Jobs down without even listening to his pitch, a decision they may well regret now that they are hemorrhaging customers.

    Nonsense. Verizon's subscriber growth is very healthy right now. Sprint, on the other hand... (Click the link below)

  18. Re:discredit global warming theories? no way on Solar Cycle 24 Has Started · · Score: 0

    I call bullsh** on your post.

    Are you implying that 99.9% of scientists agree with manmade global warming? News Flash: Desperate cries of a few scientists saying that "the science is closed" need to be heavily run through the bullsh** filter. It just smells bad.

  19. Re:discredit global warming theories? no way on Solar Cycle 24 Has Started · · Score: 0

    Could this be the start of the "You must believe in manmade global warming like we do, or you're some sort of nutjob" argument?

    Nice.

  20. Re:The gaming industry is obviously young and naiv on Clinton Would Crack Down On Game Content · · Score: 1, Funny

    Right, just like in the academy.

  23. Evolution on Evolution and the 'Wisdom of Crowds' · · Score: -1, Flamebait

    evolution-like systems such as Wikipedia, prediction markets, and recommendation systems can actually be effective.

    These systems are nothing like Darwinian evolution, since there are intelligences behind their "evolutionary" process. Darwinian evolution demands that there be no intelligence behind it in any way whatsoever.

    In short, many people (myself included) have trouble "grasping" evolution because systems with extremely high levels of complexity (i.e.- life) are not something we observe to be springing up without intelligences around and changing into even more complex systems. Sorry guys, this has never been observed.

    Believing in Darwinian evolution merely because my professor "said so", or because I wouldn't be able to get grant money unless I believe in it, are not good enough reasons.
