  1. You seem to be on A Bittersweet Finale For Discovery Space Shuttle · · Score: 2

    long-windedly, tl;dr-ingly stumping for the time-tested, well-proven system known as Communism. GoodLuckWithThat.

  2. Re:Utah water supply on Town Expands To Boost Cooling For NSA Data Center · · Score: 1

    One does wonder why the NSA chose that particular climate to build a big, water-hungry datacenter...

    You mean a climate of monoculture, compliant, unquestioning, god-fearing worker bees? That kind of climate?

  3. Re:Thanks EU on New EU Net Rules Set To Make Cookies Crumble · · Score: 0

    Why ever would Apple add privacy to thier walled gardeners' experience?

  4. Meanwhile, in USA, USA, USA on New EU Net Rules Set To Make Cookies Crumble · · Score: 1

    Unions are being banned and corporations can give limitless amounts of cash to politicians. Proud, very proud.

  5. Ahh on Utah To Teach USA is a Republic, Not a Democracy · · Score: 1

    The Economist had an article, 10+ years ago, about countries' names. They wrote, "People's Republics . . . usually aren't."

    So they've been to Utah!

  6. Obllig on Utah To Teach USA is a Republic, Not a Democracy · · Score: 1

    Thundercougarfalconbird!

  7. onosecond on Stopping the Horror of 'Reply All' · · Score: 1

    That all too brief time between your action and realization of said action.

  8. Pod F Tompkast on Unmasking Anonymous Email Senders · · Score: 1

    run it thru pretty print or some other formatter before sending it.

    Nah .. run it twice though Google translate

    Nah .. ejecutarlo dos veces a través de Google Translate

    Nah .. twice run through Google Translate

    Paul F Tompkins did this on his first or second podcast: tearfully hilarious.

  9. Re:Not just with video games, but in general on Why Do Videogames Struggle With Sex? · · Score: 1

    Us men have to figure out what conditions have to be met in order for that to occur.

    I've found wearing a suit of $100 bills meets the condition.

  10. The reason the Content Lords on Adobe Releases Flash To HTML 5 Converter · · Score: 1

    don't like HTML5: there is no bake-in, draconian DRM.

  11. I am reminded on Software Matches Police Sketches To Mugshots · · Score: 1

    of the screen cap of a local news broadcaster with an artist's rendition of a wanted criminal in the background that is nearly identical to the broadcaster.

  12. Or on Facebook May Bust Up the SMS Profit Cartel · · Score: 1

    the FCC could do their damned job and ban usurious fees by carriers.

  13. Oh, come on! on Is Software Driving a Falling Demand For Brains? · · Score: 1

    If 1000 workers create 1000 cars a year, and you find a way to automate that, so that now 500 people can make 1000 cars a year. The other 500 then could:

    never find another job that pays as well, slipping down the social food chain. (Citation: Detroit).

  14. Including on Judge Allows Subpoenas For GeoHot YouTube Viewers, Blog Visitors · · Score: 1

    not watching any of their movies either in theatres, via Netflix, or on tv? They are hard to avoid and with no real restrictions on acquisitions (see: Comcast buys NBC), they will become even harder to avoid.

  15. Papers please on Graphs Show Costs of DNA Sequencing Falling Fast · · Score: 1

    This also means the costs to podunk police departments to synthesize and plant DNA evidence where they want drops as well. The proof will be the exponential increase in the number of calls on innocent citizens to 'donate' DNA samples to track down the 'criminal in our midst du jour'. After all: if you've done nothing wrong, you have nothing to hide, right?

  16. Edision wanted DC because its arguably safer.

    Pretty sure Edison wanted DC because he had arguably more patents.

  17. Reason enough on Chandrayaan-1 Spots Giant Underground Chamber On the Moon · · Score: 1

    It could have been that the un-collapsed section is in fact filled full of derbies.

    Finally, a good reason to go back to the moon!

  18. That's all fine to point out on Student Sues FBI For Planting GPS Tracker · · Score: 1

    and you are free to do so without retribution or surveillance - provided you are a white christian.

  19. It would not surprise me on Glory Satellite Lost To Taurus XL Failure · · Score: 2

    if the US House of Representatives sabotaged it, given it's mission - and theirs.

  20. Brrr!! on Posting AC - a Thing of the Past? · · Score: 1, Insightful

    Anyone else feel a sudden, overwhelming chill of Fascism in the air?

  21. Re:"java" on UK Controllers Say Air Traffic System 'Not Safe' · · Score: 1

    ...view it on the PPrune forums ...

    Ahh, England.

  22. The razor wire on Hands On With Apple IPad 2 · · Score: 3, Insightful

    topping the walled garden is now 33% sharper too.

  23. Perhaps on IPad 2 33% Thinner, 2x Faster, iOS 4.3 · · Score: 1

    he should have been nicer - even to his lowly employees.

  24. Finally! on Asus Motherboard Box Doubles As PC Case · · Score: 1

    Fire as a feature, not a bug!

  25. No thanks on Boxee Scores $16.5M Investment · · Score: 1

    Ronen's inclusion of 'social' stuff in his software feels creepy. It's bad enough Netflix knows what I watch; I don't want Avner (and his customers) looking over my shoulder as well.
