  1. Re:Headtracking on Computer Ashtray · · Score: 1

    I agree, This thing is a photoshopped image. If you remove the CRT of these monitors, you'd just get the outermost case, meaning that thing would have to be bigger inside that what they are showing here and besides the lighter doesn't seem to be correctly oriented. I expect the lighter to be either inside or slanted at the edge and the string holding it is not really straight...

    You are too optimistic. (you heard me right) I suggest you look carefully at the pictures because of the obvious visibility of off-road SUV tracks. There is also some kind of a silhouette on the 5th picture, it looks like a man, possibly Elvis.

    Warning: Religious POV ahead...

    I could comment on the Catholic one, it is so true, well at least in our area (or at least with the devouts). People ( not just Catholics ) would tend to follow their religion blindly even if it contradicts with the Bible (or their religious texts)

    I had encountered some that rants that they're doing this and that and that they're not doing this and that... I sometimes would ask them if what they're doing is in the Bible (or the other way around, i.e. they're not doing the things stated in the Bible) (or any other religious text)

    I often get the answer that the leaders of their sect tells so. I would tell them that it is pointless to contradict or not follow your "manual" or "foundation". Well my point is moot to them most of the time.

    Conclusion: Most of the religions use the Bible as a front. If it contradicts their purpose, they would ignore that part. If it is not there and they like to do it, they would still do it.

    okay back to regular programming..

  17. Re:Oh noes! on World's Oldest Bible Going Online · · Score: 4, Insightful

    There are people who do believe that the King James version is the "inspired" Word of God. I don't fully understand why would they consider a translation the "inspired" one.
    From a religious point of view, if there is anything inspired, it would be the first version in its original language. So the closer you get to the original ones, theoretically would be the better.
    This news is great, we could actually see one of the oldest copies around. Part of me truly wonders how many more manuscripts (religious or not) would have been available today if people back then don't have the habit of burning every piece of paper they dislike.

  18. MS marketing doesnt consider it a problem on Next Generation SSDs Delayed Due To Vista · · Score: 2, Insightful

    'As soon as you get into Vista applications in notebook and desktop, you start running into very demanding applications because Vista is not optimized for flash memory solid state disk,'

    Based on the statement, it earns the Vista Capable sticker...

    On a serious note, I would try not to think that this is a case of -insert company- blaming MS for their own shortfall. Although I am more likely to believe that this is Vista's fault and in this case MS should be the one issuing some patches...
