  1. Re:Small Scale on Stephen Hawking Asks The Internet a Question · · Score: 1

    "All That" actually isn't that much. Nukes aren't as prolific as they are now. The ratio of the damage humans can do and the space we have to live in is increasing rapidly. Also, environmental deteriorations are continuous. The problem Hawking is worried about isn't a linear one.

  2. Re:As an ad, it's working beautifully. on PSP Ad Draws Charges of Racism · · Score: 1

    I disagree. As a result of this ad, I will never purchase a white PSP, not because I necessarily believe that the ad is racist but because the white PSP is not associated with that. I'm sure many others will feel the same.

  3. NASA on Asteroid Due for Close Approach · · Score: 0

    Neat. NASA has a "Near Earth Object" program!

  4. Solution!!! on Sony Hints At Higher Priced Games · · Score: 1

    Get a Wii

  5. Re:what about the rest of the world? on Why Aren't Powergrids Underground? · · Score: 1

    This was the impetus for my submission of the topic. All the Europeans in area think that the USA is amazing for having survived for so long.

  6. We love and need... what now? on Being Scared in Games is Needed · · Score: 1

    Ewww I hate horror games. Give me Super Mario World any day.

  7. My take on Liquid Cooling More than One Component? · · Score: 2, Informative

    Don't use "Y-splits" to redirect fluid. I understand your concern that you don't want hot parts connected in series but a series connection is superior to a parallel setup. The resistance overhead for a series setup is negligible. Also, was previously mentioned, it is more advantageous for you to minimize the amount of junctions and thereby increase the reliability of your setup.

  8. Re:Tell it to the kids on Pluto's New Moons Named Nix and Hydra · · Score: 2, Informative

    Tell the kids about a mysterious planet X that lies beyond dinky little pluto and tell them nobody knows much about it. People aren't even sure if it exists! That seems much more exciting that a miniscule morsel of rock.

  9. Re:Am I wrong or on Windows Live Messenger with VoIP · · Score: 2, Insightful

    It certainly does. This is an example of software piracy at its worse.

  10. Re:The moon on Pluto's New Moons Named Nix and Hydra · · Score: 1

    The bigger issue nobody is mentioning is that pluto isn't actually a planet. Well, at least I don't think its size warrants that it should be.

  11. Re:Riiiight on Wii-mote In Action · · Score: 1

    Most of the people I know that don't play games are people who would rather play basketball outside.

  12. Re:Riiiight on Wii-mote In Action · · Score: 2, Insightful

    You're missing the point. The Wii is targeted at all users, not just hardcore gamers. That's why I'm getting one. I like having fun without having to make fake computer rendered gore left and right.

  13. Re:One question: on Fully Internal Water-cooled Xbox 360 · · Score: 1

    Because some people get impressed with the stupidest things.
