  1. NY Docs *that* bad? on UK Docs Perform First Remote-Control Heart Surgery · · Score: 1

    I doubt that trans-atlantic surgery would ever catch on. Remote surgeries in little burgs, maybe.

  2. Re:And on Gardening On Mars · · Score: 1

    Uhmm, I belive Omega-3 refers to a fat. What has that to do with your protein story?

  3. Re:Flashback! on Government Approves First US Offshore Wind Farm · · Score: 1

    Hmm, the Dutch had windmills for much more than a couple of years...

  4. More likely 90% on The US Continues Its Reign As King of Spam · · Score: 1

    Spam drops to a trickle on US national holidays like thanksgiving.

    Fscking Yanks...

  5. Re:It should read 'stoopid people hath spoken' on Terry Childs Found Guilty · · Score: 1

    Nope. The passwords should be in an envelope in a password safe. The security key master should have a key to the safe. Your boss should not have to ask for the password.

  6. Re:Ground-breaking robot? on Virginia Tech Students Build CHARLI, a Human-Sized Robot · · Score: 1

    This is America. American technology always leads the world. Asimo doesn't exist. QED.

  7. Prattle Group on The Truth About Net Neutrality Job Loss · · Score: 1

    I don't think it is a problem. Who will believe the Prattle Group anyway?

  8. Domtar - burning books on Pope Rails Against the Internet and Transparency · · Score: 1

    The Pope should follow Domtar's advice, print out the whole internet and then burn it, as per their medieval tradition.

    It won't make any difference, but it will make him feel a lot better.

  9. Re:Sign of life? on The Mystery of the Missing Methane · · Score: 4, Funny

    Yup, all the available evidence suggests that the planet is populated with a very large number of anti-cows.

  10. Re:Play with fire on Russian Hacker Selling 1.5M Facebook Accounts · · Score: 2, Interesting

    Uhmm, you keep going back and keep keying in real personal data?

    Your Geek Card should be revoked.

    I also have a FB account, with nothing in it. Well, nothing that is remotely true anyway.

  11. AOL on The End of the 3.5-inch Floppy Continues · · Score: 4, Funny

    Bought? Were you working in the purchasing department of AOL?

  12. Monkeys with Slide Rules on Looking Back at 1984 Report On "Radical Computing" · · Score: 1

    The simple fact is that you don't need much more than a slide rule and a room full of mathematicians to solve most cold war era engineering problems. Russia also didn't have much trouble importing anything they didn't make themselves via 3rd parties.

  13. Flood it all - improve rainfall on Aral Sea May Recover; Dead Sea Needs a Lifeline · · Score: 1

    The Israelis and Jordanians should flood the whole area that is below sea level (hundreds of square kilometers). That way they can have a port at the Jordanian capital and the rainfall in the area will improve.

  14. Re:Emo hair on Hacking Big Brother With Help From Revlon · · Score: 1
  15. Boot Camp 101 on Hacking Big Brother With Help From Revlon · · Score: 4, Informative

    He 'discovered' basic camoflage:
    Diagonal lines confuses facial recognision in humans too.

    Anyone that has been in the Military/Police could have told him that.

  16. Re:Anywhere on earth in 2 hours on USAF's Robotic X-37B Orbiter Launched For Test Flight · · Score: 4, Insightful

    Hmm, but many people don't realize why the doomsday clock has been stuck at about 6 minutes to midnight for half a century. Its time is not quite as arbitrary as most would like to hope.

  17. Re:Anywhere on earth in 2 hours on USAF's Robotic X-37B Orbiter Launched For Test Flight · · Score: 4, Informative

    Yup. There is a foreign submarine bearing a nuclear bomb armed missile or three, off your coast right now...

  18. Re:Anywhere on earth in 2 hours on USAF's Robotic X-37B Orbiter Launched For Test Flight · · Score: 3, Insightful

    Uhhh, the USA, France, Britain, Russia and China can already drop a nuclear bomb on anyone, anywhere on earth, within about 10 minutes.

  19. Blind people on Treasury Goes High-Tech With Redesigned $100 Bills · · Score: 1

    I find it strange that US notes do not make provision for blind users. The notes are all the same size, which is totally retarded.

  20. Legal - where? on Legal Spying Via the Cell Phone System · · Score: 1

    Maybe legal in the USA where there are no privacy laws. As for the rest of the world, you should probably not try it.

  21. Re:Whatever. on True Tales of Tech Hoarding · · Score: 1

    ...but are they all running Linux and serving mail and blogs?

  22. Jet stream doesn't go that way. on Volcanic Ash Heading Towards North America · · Score: 1, Informative

    Hmmm, nope. The jet stream goes west to east in the northern hemisphere.

  23. VMware ESXi on Virtualizing Workstations For Common Hardware? · · Score: 1

    Yes you can do it with VMware ESXi, if and only if the hardware supports it.

  24. Re:How long will it last? on EU Conducts Test Flights To Assess Impact of Volcanic Ash On Aircraft · · Score: 4, Funny

    So, you never heard of Pterodactyl Airlines, did you? ;)

  25. LED: on, off, automatic on Lower Merion School District Update · · Score: 1
