  1. Move along. on Facebook Exposes Advertisers To Hate Speech · · Score: 1

    In other news, hackers on steroids infiltrate tens of thousands of MySpace accounts.

  2. Re:Typo on Comcast Forging Packets To Filter Torrents · · Score: 1

    The hyphenation is fine. However, you missed the 't'.

  3. Well... on Belgium May Prosecute the Church of Scientology · · Score: 2, Insightful

    I have absolutely no problem with these guys believing what they want, or even doing as they please within the confines of the law. However, once they start over stepping the bounds of their local laws, individuals should be prosecuted. I stress individuals.

  4. According to the law, on Man Arrested for Refusing to Show Drivers License · · Score: 1

    "(a) No person, without privilege to do so and with purpose to prevent, obstruct or delay the performance by a public official of any authorized act within the public official's official capacity, shall do any act that hampers or impedes a public official in the performance of the public official's lawful duties."

    I'm quoting Ohio's state laws. How exactly can one prove he had the purpose to prevent, obstruct, or delay the officer's performance?

  5. 1984 on Beijing Police To Launch Animated Web Patrols · · Score: 4, Interesting

    Big Brother is Watching You

  6. Functionality on iPhone Freed From AT&T, Twice · · Score: 3, Insightful

    I wonder how the functionality of the iPhone is affected - visual voicemail, uploading video, etc. Does anyone know if these are AT&T specific functions?

  7. Re:but..... on Drug Testing Entire Cities at Once · · Score: 5, Interesting

    No, actually. They look for the levels of drug 'remnants' in your urine, not the actual substance.

  8. Re:Weird... on China To Deploy World's Largest People Tracking Network · · Score: 1

    It's okay, I was just going for the +5, Funny.

  9. Weird... on China To Deploy World's Largest People Tracking Network · · Score: 4, Funny

    "One of my friend who lived at the 20th floor of a condo building in a nice neighborhood saw an intruder in the middle of one night while he was sleeping." Something doesn't add up here.

  10. now, on DARPA Develops Dolphin-like Tail For Divers · · Score: 3, Funny

    we just need some laser beams.

  11. Well, on Google Rolls Out Online Storage Services · · Score: 5, Insightful

    I've always had an issue with online storage. Sure, you have a massive capacity. But, think about the time it takes you to upload, download, etc. For the $500 a year pricetag on the 250gb drive, I could go out and purchase a few 250gb external drives. Although online storage is great for protecting against a physical disaster, it's simply too clumsy right now to be used effectively.

  12. Re:Applications are more important than the OS on Tales of Conversion - Using Ubuntu at Work · · Score: 3, Funny

    "Ubuntu is still far behind Microsoft Windows, when it comes to Windows compatibility." This may be the case, but Microsoft Windows happens to be far behind Ubuntu, when it comes to Linux compatibility.

    Looks like a few people disregard not being allowed to mention working for Google. http://www.google.com/search?q=%22i+work+for+googl e%22

    For crying out loud, they deserve it.
