  1. Re:Just an FYI on Campaign Urges People To Send MPAA and RIAA Copied Currency · · Score: 1

    I don't see any Copyrights on my money, must be ok to copy.

  2. Re:Banks do this, sort of. on Campaign Urges People To Send MPAA and RIAA Copied Currency · · Score: 2

    I don't think so. If everyone went to the bank and asked to withdraw all accounts, banks would not have the physical assets to do so. Plus, when you do deposit money to a bank, they use your money for investments. It's like a friend lets your borrow a DVD, and you rent it to someone else. Then when your friend asks for the DVD back, you tell him you mistakenly misplaced it, but you can give him a digital copy.

  3. Size Matters on VisiCalc's Dan Bricklin On the Tablet Revolution · · Score: 3, Interesting

    A Desktop PC is like a big tool box, a laptop is like a tool belt, and a tablet is like a leatherman. What would you rather to carry around all day?

  4. Banks do this, sort of. on Campaign Urges People To Send MPAA and RIAA Copied Currency · · Score: 2

    When you deposit money in a bank, it's put into digital space. So what's the difference?

  5. If it was Government Property Stolen on Stolen iPad's Reported Location Not Enough To Warrant Search, Say Dutch Police · · Score: 0

    They would be busting down doors, strip searching, interrogating and harassing people. They wouldn’t care about warrants!

  6. Add Genealogy on Berkeley HTML5 Timeline Tool Can Show a Day, Or the Lifetime of the Universe · · Score: 1

    It would be nice if we could add our own personal Genealogy, or even have the ability to share our Genealogy with everyone.

  7. And then you'd get sued a second time, for discrimination!

  8. Re:Moderators Job on Have Online Comment Sections Become Specious? · · Score: 1

    Yes, and that's why we have the Internet and Blog Sites like this, to help put it straight. When one of these BIG News outlets makes a mistake, it's all over the net. People like Mr. Denton want to try and silence people's voices and opinions, because they don't like being scrutinized. There are plenty of Blog Sites that have the sole purpose of trying to provide an insight to the news, and those comments are just as crucial to maintain credibility. It's also part of the reason I don't post comments on sites like FoxNews and CNN, because I know their a joke.

  9. Re:Moderators Job on Have Online Comment Sections Become Specious? · · Score: 1

    That may happen in some places, but then that website gets labeled as BIAS. If the site continues to do this, everyone will know about it and avoid going there. You can't decieve people for long.

  10. Proof that NATO is run by IDIOTS on Chinese Spies Used Fake Facebook Profile To Friend NATO Officials · · Score: 1

    This just shows that the top 1% who run this world are a bunch of idiots. No wonder the world is such a mess!

  11. Moderators Job on Have Online Comment Sections Become Specious? · · Score: 1

    Isn't it the job of Moderators to be sure people stay on topic? To me comments are important. They help to either verify the story, or expose the mistakes. Happens on /. all the time.

  12. Alternate Reality on Computer Games That Defined RPGs In the 1980s · · Score: 4, Insightful

    Now there is a game way ahead of it's time back in the early 80's. I'm surprised they didn't mention this because it was very popular back then.

  13. Re:Temple of Apshai? on Computer Games That Defined RPGs In the 1980s · · Score: 2

    My first RPG on a computer. My friend purchased this game for his Atari 800 computer and we played it for hours. I later realized the game was written in Basic and I could make modifications and cheat.

  14. Re:Only 70% on Computer Games That Defined RPGs In the 1980s · · Score: 1

    I remember playing Adventure on the Atari 2600. I think that was the first RPG I ever played, if that tells you something about me.

  15. Re:I can imagine quite a bit on Startram — Maglev Train To Low Earth Orbit · · Score: 1

    Buy yourself a Furby

  16. Re:Having worked with officers in that area before on SFPD Breathalyzer Mistake Puts Hundreds of DUI Convictions In Doubt · · Score: 2

    I hope they get their ASSES sued! If it happen to me, and I had to pay fines, spend time in jail, lose my license, my job, reputation, etc. etc., I'd get the best lawyer and SUE them!

  17. The Numbers Don't Lie! on SFPD Breathalyzer Mistake Puts Hundreds of DUI Convictions In Doubt · · Score: 1

    "Err, Opps! there is an error here. Let me check that again"

  18. Just a flesh wound, for now. on Large Solar Flare To Glance Off Earth · · Score: 0

    So it's like getting grazed by 12 Guage Buck Shot

  19. Re:Location of Test Servers on Ask Slashdot: What Is an Acceptable Broadband Latency? · · Score: 1

    I would run some traceroutes and see where the latency is at.

  20. Re:Escalate your trouble ticket on Ask Slashdot: What Is an Acceptable Broadband Latency? · · Score: 2

    I would also think with those latency numbers you would have a hard time reaching 10Mbps. My guess is that you are a bit too far from the nearest POP which is cause attenuation in the line. Do a bandwidth test; see what the actual speeds are.

  21. Re:Diesel vs. Gasoline/Petrol on After Legal Fight, NCI Researchers Publish Study Linking Diesel Exhaust, Cancer · · Score: 1

    My vehicles usualy rust long before the engines give out.

  22. Re:Well, that should silence the pro-diesel fumers on After Legal Fight, NCI Researchers Publish Study Linking Diesel Exhaust, Cancer · · Score: 1

    It takes Scientific Study and Legal Battles to confirm commonsense!

  23. Re:So the moral of the story is... on The Worst Job In the Digital World · · Score: 1

    Employers will sift through Twitter and Facebook. All it takes is one slipup and it could affect your career for the rest of your life.

  24. Re:So the moral of the story is... on The Worst Job In the Digital World · · Score: 5, Insightful

    It's news to the Ignorants. Especially the young generation! Being in the IT field for many years, I already knew this was going to happen, and that's why I rarely use Facebook, and never use Twitter. Keep a low profile, and watch what you say or post. Never trust someone else to hold your personal data, no mater what they tell you. Keep your memories in a Fireproof safe box.

  25. Look Ma! No Hands! on Smartphones More Dangerous Than Alcohol, When Driving · · Score: 1

    That's why they invented software like Vlingo for smartphones! and Bluetooth headsets for talking. A Smartphone is only as smart as the person using it.
