  1. Ooooo I feel good now! on New Energy Efficiency Rules For TVs Sold In California · · Score: 1

    And that's all it does, placate some greeny somewhere that still thinks a Toyota Prius is a clean car. Instead of all this silly shit why don't they post the efficiency ratings like they do for white goods and let the consumer decide. Oh right we're stupid sheeple that they must herd.

  2. Amerika what a country!! on Universities Patenting More Student Ideas · · Score: 1

    It seems like every day we find a new way to stifle creativity and create stupider, dependent people. If this country is going to survive we need to be breaking down the barriers that discourage people's creativity and resourcefulness not kill it!

  3. Re:So do on Study Confirms Mobile Phones Distract Drivers · · Score: 1

    But was she topless?

  4. Re:So do on Study Confirms Mobile Phones Distract Drivers · · Score: 1

    I kid you not she had her foot through the steering wheel and was using both hands to tie. I was sooooo tempted to giver her a little swerve to see how she would recover...

  5. So do on Study Confirms Mobile Phones Distract Drivers · · Score: 3, Insightful

    small children, nagging adults, cigarettes, women in the next car topless, the CD you need just out of reach in the back seat, your MP3 player that's needs to be plugged into that &$*%$ lighter before it dies in the middle of that cool song, trying to figure out just how is that lady in the next car doing 75 on the I10 tying her shoe?

  6. You could make Apples on Greenpeace Slams Apple For Environmental Record · · Score: 1

    out of dirt and they'd complain about erosion FK'n hippies.

  7. Re:Surprised ? on After Columbine, Eric Holder Advocated Internet "Restrictions" · · Score: 2

    There is only one problem with American Democracy and that is the entitlement mentality that has overtake it's people in the last few decades. It's only a short matter of time before there will be more on the cart then pulling it.

    Sorry for the inconvenience.

  8. Steve Ballmer on IRS Looking at Google/Mozilla Relationship · · Score: 0, Offtopic

    is that you?

  9. Re:I'll Tell You What It Means on Barack Obama Wins US Presidency · · Score: 1

    Are you fucking serious? You haven't seen screwed up yet boy! I'm not saying any side is more inept then the other but you need to think before you speak. Just the fact that some one would threaten an industry that supplies over 50% of the electricity in this country with bankruptcy when it would take DECADES to replace it scarce me to the bone.

  10. Hmmm, me thinks on Windows 7 To Be 256-Core Aware · · Score: 2

    if I had a machine with 256 cores I would be using an OS that fit the dedicated process I was coding for, not one that added to the overhead.

  11. Re:Sinking feeling on Gov't Computers Used to Find Info on "Joe the Plumber" · · Score: 1, Offtopic

    Except that the people they through under the bus will probably not be the people that instigated the felonies. Those people are too well insulated and obviously above the laws that govern you and I. So yes if the media sees value in the story of "catching" the perpetrator(s) then you will see some poor sap get his or her career ended and hopefully some jail time.

  12. Where's the tipping point on Geoengineering To Cool the Earth Becoming Thinkable · · Score: 1

    were we become a huge snowball? I can grow and eat things if it's a few degrees warmer and don't own any waterfront property but last time I tried to plant anything in the dead of wither my shovel broke.

  13. This seems to be a growing problem on Handling Caller ID Spoofing? · · Score: 1

    I have a land line here that gets 4-5 different auto-calls a day even though it's be on that Do Not Call list for a year. I usually leave the phone off the hook after answering to waste their time. When I call the numbers back they either block the call at their pbx with a message or are disconnected and obviously forged. I'm even getting them on my cell, including mal-formed numbers from what should be New Brunswick and Puerto Rico. Fuckin Scammers

  14. Re:Stop the world on Record Label Infringes Own Copyright, Site Pulled · · Score: 1

    Another reason... I think I will spend the election 90 miles north of the I40 near four corners and no reception.

  15. Wait for Black Friday on Recovering Moldy Electronics? · · Score: 1

    and hit the sales. There is just too much chance of frying electronics or re-infestation of mold and it's just not worth it. Just ask my Uncle, he almost burned down an entire fouplex trying to be cheap with repaired electronics. If you really want to try use distilled water alcohol.

  16. Re:Stop the world on Record Label Infringes Own Copyright, Site Pulled · · Score: 1

    Well, remember it was a single straw...

  17. Stop the world on Record Label Infringes Own Copyright, Site Pulled · · Score: 3, Funny

    I gotta get off. All hope is lost, sanity has fled us. Run for the hills everyone. It can't get stupider then this. Or can it?

  18. What about Ramp Rats? on TSA Employee Caught With $200K Worth of Stolen Property · · Score: 1

    guy I knew working in a certain airport in a certain southern California valley airport seemed to always have new skis, complete sets of Ping clubs, and great luggage. Rumor has it they were all... STOLEN!!! The airline didn't care, it was too hard to deal with the union.

  19. Re:Don't forget Apple on iGoogle Users Irate About Portal's Changes · · Score: 1

    I understand about being a squeaky wheel and all but people need to get a grip.

  20. How good was your record keeping? on Tax Write-Offs For Free (As In Speech) Work? · · Score: 1

    I would think it would be like a home business, the IRS wants you to PROVE you used the space.

  21. How much of a Nanny State on Software Holds Cell Phone Calls While Driving · · Score: 1

    do we need? What next they going to gag and bag my kids so they don't distract me? Here's an idea, ticket distracted drivers.

  22. Well I found a on Fuel Efficiency and Slow Driving? · · Score: 1

    sweet spot with my 06 Diesel at 65mph. On cruise control with 6 people, 5 dogs and 3/4 of a ton of camping gear (no joke) I get 18mpg. I got 19-20 before this new low sulfur fuel. I guess its the resistance / miles traveled / torque all finding their respective happy places.

  23. Ever notice anything with the word on World Bank Under Cybersiege In "Unprecedented Crisis" · · Score: 1

    World or United seems to end badly?

  24. Re:Mc Cain + Palin spam emails on Election Dirty Tricks About To Begin · · Score: 1

    Ya I've been getting the same crap from obama's camp. Dumb spammers I'm Canadian.
