  1. Re:Conflicts of interests on "Judicial Scandal" In Pirate Bay Case · · Score: 1

    Murder will be legal and a generally accepted practice if majority of the people in the country believe it is right and support it (at least that's what democracy is supposed to be. Right?).

    Actually murder is actually legal. Otherwise would death by lethal injection or hanging exist in some countries.

  2. Re:Let the market decide on iPhone's Development Limitations Could Hurt It In the Long Run · · Score: 2, Insightful

    Which component of iPhone does Apple have a legal monopoly that it makes me want to stick with iPhone rather than another competing phone? Honestly - I am not being a smart ass. Just curious.

  3. Re:Here's the Tech Report on Super-Fast RDF Search Engine Developed · · Score: 1

    If I am paying a consultant 125 Euro per hour, I would expect a little more attention to detail from him.

    At http://www.harth.org/~andreas/consulting/
    [Priolva Technologies, Spain Dec 2005 - now CTO and co-founder] links to http://www.privolva.com/

    So did he co-found Priolva Technologies or Privolva Technologies? Not being a grammar nazi or a spelling nazi - but I expect a high priced consultant to at least spell the name of his company right.

  4. Re:Not a Microsoft Designed Product on MS AntiSpyware vs Ad-Aware vs. SpyBot · · Score: 1

    Does anyone think a normal user has a day to day use for RealVNC or winpcap? If you do have a use for these, you know what you are doing and are smart enough to ignore/turn off these warnings.

  5. Re:Wow, is this for real on MS AntiSpyware vs Ad-Aware vs. SpyBot · · Score: 1

    Netscape used to be superior a long time back. Then IE was superior till they accomplished their mission of destroying Netscape. Now Mozilla/
    Firefox/Netscape is becoming better.

  6. Re:Wait a minute... on MS AntiSpyware vs Ad-Aware vs. SpyBot · · Score: 1

    Why do moderators keeps on moderating these "Are we not supposed to hate/love MS, Linux, Apple?" comments on every article funny over and over again?

  7. Innovation vs Adoption on Top 25 Innovations of the Past 25 Years · · Score: 1

    It seems they may be consfusing innovations in the last 25 years with adoption in the last 25 years. For instance ATM was introduced in 1967 and EMail was already used in 1965. But they just started becoming popular among the masses in the last 25 years.

  8. They are Waiting for #1 on Top 25 Innovations of the Past 25 Years · · Score: 1

    Or they haven't decided on #1 yet, and are generating enough discussion to come up with a #1 that is not already in this list.

  9. Why would you prefer a Console over a PC? on Xbox 2 for $400? · · Score: 1

    Not to start a flamewar, given everything except for the price while a PC is a much better choice for gaming (configurability, graphics, upgradability etc.) why do so many people prefer a console? Anyone who has a console nowadays most probably have a better PC at their disposal.

    Want to play in a big screen TV or hi-fi sound system, connect my Video/Audio output to my receiver? Then why would I want to choose a console over a PC.

    Disclaimer: I do have an XBox, a Dreamcast, and a few high end PC systems that I play on.
