  1. Overpriced because on Google Plans to Bid 4.6 Billion on 700MHz Band · · Score: 1

    This is not worldwide, this is just for the USA. A fool and their money is easy parted.

  2. If you dont like it... on World of Warcraft's Brand New Rootkit · · Score: 1

    .. stop your complaining and stop giving them your money. They will learn the lesson once it hits their balance sheets.

  3. Re:Simple solution: on Chinese Sub Pops Up Amid US Navy Exercise · · Score: 1

    Actually Diesel engines are quieter than Nuclear submarines (and cost many times cheaper so you can have more submarines and swarm your enemy) just they don't have the range (solvable by hybrids) but as with anything, they are only as good as their leaders who control the submarine.

  4. Here is the STORY on Star Trek XI Plot Details Revealed · · Score: 1
  5. Re:Come over to Europe to work on Non-Compete Agreement Beyond Term of Employment? · · Score: 1

    Bullshit, there is no problem getting a job in Europe if you are not from there.

  6. Come over to Europe to work on Non-Compete Agreement Beyond Term of Employment? · · Score: 1

    Employees have rights here :) Non compete on termination of contracts are ILLEGAL and against HUMAN RIGHTS directives. You have a right to earn a living.

  8. Re:Slashdotted? on Predator-Style Helmets Allow Pilots to See Through Planes · · Score: 1

    UK is great at inventions but sucks at following the up. Invisible tanks, USA will take it and give it to Israel and then capitalise on it just as they did the steam train, faster than sound jet and so on. All British inventions but stolen by the US. The same will happen to this.

  9. Yeah ... on Predator-Style Helmets Allow Pilots to See Through Planes · · Score: 1

    .. X-Ray vision and they say LOOK DOWN hmmm, I would rather not.

  10. Re:A: Because it breaks the flow of a message on Microsoft's Treatment of Google Defectors · · Score: 1

    Because I can? Its like managers typing all their email message into the subject line and in the body. or one line IM messages.

  11. Re:NBC DO NOT offer FREE downloads on NBC Direct Launches With Free Downloads · · Score: 1

    The cost here is having to be in a specific region of the planet. GPS receivers are built into 3G mobiles and some 2/2.5G mobile devices and you can bet your bottom that they will use that to restrict content for regions. The price here you have to pay is being in the location they decide to give it "free" to.

  12. Thank goodness I dont work in America if they .. on Microsoft's Treatment of Google Defectors · · Score: 1

    .. treat people this way. They cannot do this in Europe thankfully and usually the notice period is more than 2 weeks (and our vacation time is over a month :) )

  13. Its quite fun to watch... on Bill Would Tie Financial Aid To Anti-Piracy Plans · · Score: 2, Interesting

    .. America destroy itself from within :)' Easiest victory ever.

  14. Re:NBC DO NOT offer FREE downloads on NBC Direct Launches With Free Downloads · · Score: 1

    Pretty much yes :) The media industry should have learnt years ago that restrictions via region does not work.

  15. NBC DO NOT offer FREE downloads on NBC Direct Launches With Free Downloads · · Score: 0, Troll

    they still restrict to regions so you have to proxy to get access to them and they do not seem to offer the FIRST episode or pilots. Its not FREE to all.

  16. Re:Who would've guessed on Nigerian Government Nixes Microsoft's Mandriva Block · · Score: 1

    I would think XP is far more localised tested than Linux ever has been. Especially Vista which is a single world binary and takes all captions/labels from localised resources.

  17. Re:google time on Microsoft CIO Stuart Scott Gets Axed · · Score: 1

    Big deal. You are allowed a life you know. This isn't primary school.

  18. Re:Silence areas are ignored.. on Cell Phone Jamming on the Rise · · Score: 1

    It is a designated QUIET WAGGON on the train, who is the ignorant one? The person who is violating the peace and quest of the QUEST WAGGON that NO MOBILE PHONES ARE PERMITTED. Hello.

  19. Only terrorists use CentOS on Is CentOS Hurting Red Hat? · · Score: 3, Funny
  20. Silence areas are ignored.. on Cell Phone Jamming on the Rise · · Score: 1

    .. we have them on trains and some ignorant youth or an arrogant traveller just has to talk LOUDLY in the QUIET WAGGON. It is then I turn on my jammer. It is much safer than having a "confrontation" by "talking" to them. Simeple, quiet, faceless and it works.

  21. Seagate is the ONLY company that... on Seagate Offers Refunds on 6.2 Million Hard Drives · · Score: 1

    gets my money. Period and for good reason. Reliable hardware and golden guarantee.

    FCC? Isn't that an American thing?

  24. Re:No on Rochester Judge Holds RIAA Evidence Insufficient · · Score: 1

    Well, I managed to jam every AP in my area :) Set it to Israel channel spacing with Xtreme speed, full power and Adhoc connected. It just kicks em off in some cases permanently as some AP's presumably crashed :)
