  2. Re:Oh noes! I can't reach porntube! (rolls eyes) on Internet Kill Switch Back On the US Legislative Agenda · · Score: 1

    This is so sad and true. In reality it IS unconstitutional. This is exactly what the framers wanted to prevent. If they knew that the commerce clause would be twisted so badly, they would have modified it a bit, I think.

  3. Expectations were too high. on Internet Kill Switch Back On the US Legislative Agenda · · Score: 1

    And I almost expected this Congress to be a little different. Oh well.

  5. Re:Boycott Scarbucks on Starbucks Gets Mobile Payment System · · Score: 1

    A well regulated militia (in our current case, the army) is necessary for defense of the country. The right to bear arms is necessary to ensure the freedom of individuals against that standing army if it becomes corrupted.

  6. iPhone on Dual-Core Chips Coming To All Smartphones In 2011 · · Score: 2, Insightful

    probably won't persuade iPhone owners to switch to Android

    And who is to say that the iPhone 5 won't be dual core?

    If he's dubbed a terrorist by the US government...

  8. Re:Not free tethering - WiFi hotspot, unknown pric on Verizon Finally Unveils Apple iPhone · · Score: 1

    Sorry--I equate tethering and hotspot even though they are of course two compeltely different things. (Same result though.) And the impression of the news media (from what I'm reading) is that there was no additional cost.

  9. Re:The good and bad... on Verizon Finally Unveils Apple iPhone · · Score: 4, Informative

    Voice calls take priority--any data needs are paused while on a call.

    I finally understand why I never see the mythical blue post!!

  14. Re:Skin Flute ... on MIT Media Lab Researcher Prints Playable Flute · · Score: 1

    Does anyone have some bassoon jokes?

    Q. Which is better, a bassoon or an oboe? A. A Bassoon - it makes more toothpicks.

    Good catch. Sure sounds the same to me.

    I wonder how many job offers that kid has received.

  17. Re:In other (more accurate) words, on Senate Repeals 'Don't Ask, Don't Tell' · · Score: 1

    True. It's the E-7 supervising the E-4 and also sleeping with her that's the issue.

    I am in the military. Thanks though.

    You are incorrect.

    Fraternization, as defined by the Manual for Courts-martial, is a personal relationship between an officer and an enlisted member that violates the customary bounds of acceptable behavior in the Air Force and prejudices good order and discipline, discredits the armed services, or operates to the personal disgrace or dishonor of the officer involved.

    Enlisted and Enlisted is referred to as "Unprofessional Relationship". Read AFI 36-2909 for more specifics.

  20. Re:In other (more accurate) words, on Senate Repeals 'Don't Ask, Don't Tell' · · Score: 1

    Fraternization only occurs between supervisor and subordinate. (Officer > Enlisted)

    One World Government, here we come!

  23. Bias? on Obama May Toughen Internet Privacy Rules · · Score: 4, Insightful

    The big question, though, is just how successful any fresh attempt at enforcing new privacy strictures on the Internet will be with Republicans soon to be in charge of the House.

    Let's try not to be so blatant with our biases next time.
