  1. Is it just me on Neutrino Experiment Restores Standard Model Symmetry · · Score: 1

    or other people as well think that the magnet explosion was no accident? I bet that now CERN scientist are going to retaliate by aiming their neutrino beam at FermiLab trying to mess with their experiments.

  2. Re:Mathematics? on Google Pushes Open Source OCR · · Score: 1

    I wouldn't say so, check http://www.inftyproject.org/ Their OCR claims 99% success in printed documents (i've tried it is true). And wait a few years,there are some really promising papers out there, i bet you'll be amazed on the number of people working on this problem since the late 90's. 3 years from now i am almost sure you'll be able to enter any kind of math expression by hand using a digitizer (don't ask handwritten offline OCR just yet though :( )
    check out this guy as well http://www.cs.berkeley.edu/~fateman/ his work is groundbraking, i hope they will have a solid opensource system in a couple of years

  3. Re:Who was first? (with video) on Combined Hovercraft and Helicopter · · Score: 2, Informative

    If you had checked at the end of the page and http://jlnlabs.imars.com/gfsuav/gfsuav.htm you would had seen that the guy is giving credit to Hatton and gives a brief history of machines based on the same physics.

  4. At last on NASA's New Mission to the Moon · · Score: 1

    My land on the moon will gain some value.

  5. Songs of distant earth on Interstellar Ark · · Score: 1

    By Arthur Clarke is a book that deals both with the subject of seeding planets with humans by using dna reconstructing machines(can't really recall if this is the idea but something like that) and with millions of humans migrating in a huge ark just before earth gets destroyed. Clarke's idea is that humans are kept in suspended animation while traveling and will wake up when they will reach their final destination.

  6. Re:Ok, That's IT! on Public Iris Scanning Device In the Works · · Score: 1

    So that's the problem?Where to find contacts and sunglasses to avoid the scanning?These iris scanners should not be used in the first place.If nobody objects to it in a few years it will be probably illegal to wear those contacts. Ah,I should remove that anal probe,i think those E.T bastards are spying on me...

  7. aluminum case plot on BBC Reports UK-U.S. Terror Plot Foiled · · Score: 1

    It's all a plot by the aluminum laptop case companies. Is there actually any case capable to survive heathrow's baggage handlers?

  8. Re:Am I the only one... on Short Film About CERN's Large Hadron Collider · · Score: 1

    I know lot's of physicist that have hardons when they enter the cathedral(LHC)...

  9. Re:Firefox Cheerleaders on Firefox Usage Climbing · · Score: 1

    True,these memory leaks should get fixed sometime.Can't really restart firefox every few days.
    On the other hand opera has very good memory management but can't really display all those neat ajax tricks in gmail.
