Men Confess on Assassination Plot: "Because Obama Is Black"

Comment in News (5 diggs, 1 reply) - on 08/27/2008

They look like KKK people. Let me guess, they are from a state in the bible belt, drive pickup trucks but have never actually been out of their state. (see comment)

2009 Corvette ZR1 First Drive: The Greatest Car Ever Made!

Comment in News (11 diggs, 2 replies) - on 08/21/2008

The rest of the world rates at 100Km/h rather than 60M/h. 60M/H amounts to 96.5 Km/h so it's probably comparable to 3.5 sec. to get to 100 Km/h, which is the same as Ferrari F430. (see comment)

2009 Corvette ZR1 First Drive: The Greatest Car Ever Made!

Comment in News (-8 diggs, 0 replies) - on 08/21/2008

Damn that's a fat ass, yup, must be American. It looks much like other American sports wagons, probably pretty good torque but crap at everything else. Corvette is decent, it did pretty good at this years Le Mans, I wonder why it's the only contender to g … (see comment)

Here's A Map Of Nations That Don't Use The Metric System

Comment in Images (-1 diggs, 2 replies) - on 08/13/2008

Most European countries changed to the metric system 70 years ago or so. Oddly enough, Canada is a bit of a mix, they measure water temperature in Fahrenheit but air temperature in Celsius. Go figure! (see comment)

OpenMoko 2008.8 Released

Comment in News (3 diggs, 0 replies) - on 08/10/2008

- iPhone is proprietary and requires you sell your soul to Steve Jobs (and mortgage your house). - Android is vaporware, no point really in talking about it. - OpenMoko suffers from neither of the above. But thanks for the very objective and argumented an … (see comment)

Americans Are Drinking Less Alcohol

Hard to believe. With Bush at the rudder of my country, I would certainly be drinking more and not less. (see comment)

Kitten thrown out of speeding car on highway

I feel the same. Perhaps because animals have no choice to be in the (often merciless) mercy of humans. (see comment)

Is it possible that Linux is going to surpass Mac?

Comment in News (2 diggs, 0 replies) - on 08/01/2008

Some do, the Stallman followers, however the vast amount of practitioners have no issue with enabling a proprietary driver if it means they can play their game and get wobbly windows. (see comment)

Is it possible that Linux is going to surpass Mac?

Comment in News (1 digg, 0 replies) - on 08/01/2008

Clearly yes. Empirical data points would indicate this. Apple is in a good steam these days, but so was Microsoft once, and IBM before them. The future is bright and free, embrace it. (see comment)

Very disappointed by UT3. Not at all the fun gameplay from UT2004. (see comment)

Mysteries of time, and the multiverse

Comment in News (2 diggs, 0 replies) - on 07/06/2008

"...it came from a bigger space-time that we don't observe. Our universe came from a tiny little bit of a larger high-entropy space." Here's an example again of explanations which are recursive and hence fail to actually explain anything at all. One must … (see comment)

Denmark has the worst iPhone Data Plan ever.

Comment in News (-4 diggs, 1 reply) - on 07/03/2008

It's not the carrier, it's Apple that decides prices. Frustrating to us Danes especially since you can go out and buy other new Nokia smart phones and get full 7.2mbit 3.5G support and a 10GB limit for less. (see comment)

Here's an example of american healthcare

Comment in News (2 diggs, 1 reply) - on 07/01/2008

Ehhh... whatever dude. Thought of looking further than the US border just for a moment? Here in Denmark we keep being classified as "the happiest people" and a very large reason for that is that we have free health care. In fact, we do not think of it a … (see comment)

Think Rogers iPhone plans are unfair? Try living in Sweden

Comment in News (5 diggs, 0 replies) - on 06/30/2008

Same story in Denmark. I was going to get an iPhone, but learning of how locked you are to the carrier and that you are not allowed to use it as a bridge to gain internet on your laptop is just too much for me. I will get the Nokia n96 instead which also … (see comment)

Forbes: Is Microsoft Better Off Without Gates?

Comment in News (8 diggs, 3 replies) - on 06/24/2008

Naaah, the reason for Microsoft's problems has more to do with that monkey CEO to Steve Balmer. Microsoft could embrace open source, literally kill Java if they wanted to but I don't think they have the vision to move on from their legacy business model. (see comment)
