  1. no reports no operating drones until...simple on FBI Can't Find Its Drone Privacy Reports · · Score: 1

    Let me get this straight; The FBI can not investigate itself losing a report? Let us see how long it would take them to "find" the reports if all future drone spying is dependent on them releasing the report first. Of course national security will never allow such a "tool" to be turned off. They need 24hr operation on everyone in case the citizens have had enough corporate thuggery, right? The latest headlines; "Now we've seen it all, Drones used for keeping agents happy...Federal Boob Inspectors"

  3. If Microsoft NO soft Quit using the DRM they push on Kickstarted Firefox OS HDMI Dongle Delayed, DRM Support Being Added · · Score: 1

    I have Chromecast and would have considered a Firefox dongle. But not now thanks for the warning" MS DRM included." Those rights management dingles are part of Bill's vision that 'rights management was the way of the future' I remember that right after win98 went to WinXP and all my 'free cracked programs' no longer worked. My $200 musical keyboard from Soundblaster quit working (because it would record to MP3 format) samples that were protected??? WTF One of the best software supported keyboards offered and not it's useless? This all came about AFTER he had his empire planted in cement. Kind of like the Porn scene and how he encouraged it because he believed in it evidently. MSN used to be the best at serving searchable pics etc. remember?

  4. Re:Danger of regulation oooooooooh! on Verizon Sells Off Wireline Operations, Blames Net Neutrality Plans · · Score: 1

    " the danger of regulation has been around for a long time" Since when? Give me regulation on everything. Loss of jobs is a load and you know it. Municipalities will build networks and there lies the jobs you say will 'disappear'. And Verizon knows that too. Deregulation? Look what it did to the electricity traders (Enron) 2003? Price went up 300% and they were caught holding of production until the price spiked every morning. Oh the poor things they lost their jobs right? Then those same exact 'traders' went over to JP Morgan and ran the price of petroleum from $40 to $140 in LESS THAN 1 YEAR! All the while people saying "what can we do?" Their answer was "buy oil" The assholes. Watch Frontline on you tube about energy traders you will be reminded. Now we been drained for over a decade and they are starting the cycle all over again. The 1% can eat it raw... Do you know how much of a drain it was on the lower 99% of us? My driving habits changed, I walk more and want that lifestyle now. I say regulate the bastards if that's what it takes and it will because greed knows no bounds. Just watch the rise of big oil prices happen again and get PISSED and vote FOR regulation. And be NOT afraid citizen.

    "and iPod was the answer" B.S. Yeah who can forget every 'search' or porn you tried to come up with was a picture of the "new" overpriced Apple MP3 player? HATED IT! Damn apple geeks. And I have hated it ever since he hired a few 1000 slack-time employees to rename that picture of an iPod over and over again... Some innovation a little screen and a "wheel." Oh and it was white! So hard to clean and keep clean white. Never mind that people were listening to MP3s on other perfectly functional flash players, CD players and making their own car stereo out of old supermarket i486 machines and 7"TFT screens. (I wanted to do that but never got around to it.) Too cool. Yet the iPod name was substituted for all mp3 flash memory players in the news and TV articles. How did that happen?

    Surely you read about the army's mini shuttle that has been in space, orbiting for almost 2 years? "After twenty-two months in orbit, on its second space mission, the Air Force plans to bring the X-37B back to Earth" Now you know what is servicing the spy scopes since the shuttle has been grounded AND they are getting serviced by robotics. We won't hear how great it is on the paid-for newscasts, only here. 17 Hubble sized spy telescopes sounds about right, to cover enough of the Earth we fear most. Who knows what other great things we'll come up with because of our fear of the unknown. Way to go Hubble I'm humbled by your wonderment you brought us. Without scaring us into submission. Also a big thanks to the astronauts that saved it from being a fiasco. That new camera the article spoke of was the ticket 10,000 galaxies looking through an orifice the size of a straw! Now multiply that across the skies.

    Why all these sequestering facts? That's beyond the point entirely Geez. Just realize trees breath CO2 continually and exhaling oxygen? As long as it's alive. Isn't that enough of a reason for more trees? The ocean locks up the most carbon as limestone. That's why our oceans are important too.

    "we need to stop recycling paper ASAP Throwing away paper in landfills is a form of sequestering carbon underground." WRONG. There is plenty of paper NOT able to be recycled that ends up in the landfill, (our future methane source.) and plastic bags are the 'cells' that will sore the methane in pockets there. Use your plastic shopping bags for garbage disposal which most of us do now. Our ancestors will appreciate it.

    See my name? Grow Old Timber. What a concept. My idea? If the industry wants to cut down the remaining largest trees(which they do) I say grow your own old trees to harvest and leave the remaining one for us to remember what the country was before it was paved over. A little history;.. Gifford Pinchot 'invented' the phrase "tree farm" to plant the idea in the minds of the people of sustainable harvests regularly (every 40yrs) has now become every 38years...the moss doesn't even have a chance to form, leaving the moisture collecting benefits of moss gone. In the remaining rain forest here, it 'rains' on non cloudy days due to the hanging moss effectively wringing-out the moisture of the air, really. 40 times it's own weight was measured. That's why streams decline after the forests have been altered. The US forest service named the largest forest in the NW US after him (Gifford Pinchot) Now that's ironic. 30 years ago the harvests had reached the top of the cascade range. Damn. Let's blame the tree-huggers, we need those remaining monster trees, right? What's worse, the pulp and timber industry have gone overseas and to Brazil Indonesia etc for MORE. Destroying animal habitat and wreaking havoc on the unsuspecting. The industry only sees 1 thing, product, and does not even understand half of what they are doing. Now it gas become more apparent biting us on the ass...with higher tides etc. Still they will deny it. Most of the big trees were cut down in the late 1800s to make coke(that's an old name for purified charcoal) for creating a better iron (steel) for the railroads. Thanks to Andrew Carnegie. That's how most of the original virgin timber was given to them, in exchange for rails. This was done just before we figured out how to use electricity(by a mere 20 years) to clean the iron ore better How sad is that? So Plant a maple tree in the front yard for a source of leaves to wipe your ass with. Hardly a solution I admit. Trees breath CO2 and exhale Oxygen, shade the earth creating micro-climates and make wonderful composts. ALL beneficial. If you have the groundwater to support it, Plant that tree and let it become Old Timber. Thanks .
