  1. Re:but it's cool and hip on Augmented Reality and Privacy · · Score: 1

    I'd love to expose myself. But first we need to repel these totalitarian indecency laws.

  2. Re:Creative destruction on Google Attack On the Mobile Market Rumored · · Score: 4, Insightful

    I hate mobile phones and everything about the industry behind them.
    This sounds quite a bit less hate-able.

  3. Re:Okay, I know this is off-topic... on Plasma Device Kills Bacteria On Skin In Seconds · · Score: 5, Funny

    That's just coincidental. Besides there were FIVE elements; Fire, water, earth, air and orange haired Ukrainian chick.

  4. Re:This is similar to the RIAA on Newspapers Face the Prisoner's Dilemma With Google · · Score: 1

    Critically wounded animals are the most dangerous. Stand back or get clawed and bitten.

  5. Re:What? on Newspapers Face the Prisoner's Dilemma With Google · · Score: 1

    A newspaper is fire-lighters in sheet form.
    Usually the paper is printed with troll articles, flame-bait articles and advertising.

    1. Cam whoring
    2. Arranging to go dogging on craigslist

    It's like Orwell's vision, except people do it voluntarily.

  7. Re:Six months from now on Virgin Media To Trial Filesharing Monitoring In UK · · Score: 1

    "Be" is a weird ISP.
    I signed up my grandmother because it was cheap.

    Unfortunately they seem to think modem settings, email settings, in fact any settings are TOP SECRET, for management only.
    The modem comes pre-programmed and doesn't have a user-name and password. I couldn't be bothered to figure out exactly how they had watermarked it, and it didn't appear to be MAC address.
    They also force their out-going mail server (Which is completely secret so I don't know it), although I got around this nonsense using SMTP/SSL.

    I'd spend a few quid more and get a real ISP.

  8. Re:Who the fuck still watches TV? on Google's Reach Hits Your Tivo · · Score: 3, Funny

    Parent poster doesn't even OWN a TV

  9. Re:This happened to a relative of mine. on Paralyzed Man In "Coma" For 23 Years Was Actually Conscious · · Score: 1

    If nurses treated me badly whilst I was in a coma then woke up,
    I would fly to Okinawa and have a custom made katana, then I would kill them all.

    But first I would need to wiggle my big toe.

  10. Re:Yeah, right! on Ubuntu Reaching Out To 16,000 Anime Lovers · · Score: 1

    Isn't there a collective noun for "clueless, facebooking, twittering and oh-so-creative metrosexuals"?
    It's getting hard to read this thread otherwise.

  12. Re:Eating a pussy is cool, but eating pussy is not on Vulgar Comment On Newspaper Site Costs Man His Job · · Score: 1

    you'll go looking for a furry little pussy to snack on

    I prefer shaved pussy in both contexts.

  13. Re:What a mess... on Fedora 12 Lets Users Install Signed Packages, Sans Root Privileges · · Score: 0, Flamebait

    I calculated the total cost of ownership of continuing to not use RH, and found it was too low,
    so we stuck with windows.

  14. Re:I want a mechanism for pluck-outs... on Firefox 3.6 Locks Out Rogue Add-ons · · Score: 1

    The pony should be a plugin

  15. Re:The Future on The Jet Fighter Laser Cannon · · Score: 1

    Something went wrong with the future.
    We crossed into a time-line where there are no flying cars. Who's going to go back in time and fix this?

  16. Re:Does this mean TPB will still be working? on Pirate Bay Shuts Down Tracker, Switches To Distributed Hash Table · · Score: 3, Insightful

    Sure you can.
    The decentralized service doesn't have that central server weakness, so the best you can do is blast sacrificial individual users with law suits.

    After that, it's a case of mass disobedience vs prohibition laws, because people are not going to stop sharing any time soon.

  17. Re:Distributed Post! on Pirate Bay Shuts Down Tracker, Switches To Distributed Hash Table · · Score: 1

  18. Places not to hold an Internet Governance Forum on UN Officials Remove Poster Mentioning Chinese Firewall · · Score: 5, Informative

  20. Spread the word! on Vatican Debates Possibility of Alien Life · · Score: 4, Funny

    We need money to build an interstellar cruiser. Now, this space ship will be able to travel through a wormhole and deliver the message and guh-glory of Jesus Christ to those godless aliens.
    S-send your money now. Amen.

  21. Re:Study Funded By Black Hole Companies on Micro-Black Holes Make Poor Planet Killers · · Score: 1

    A company that produces black holes needs a bailout. It's too big to fail.

  22. Anyone skim the summary and read on Hollywood Backs Swedish Movie Streaming Site · · Score: 4, Informative

    uninterrupted barrage of ads

    Why, oh why do they insist on this selling point of "no risks of computer viruses".
    I'm always concerned that "legitimate" sources will contain a dodgy driver or a rootkit. No such concerns with the latest aXXo rip.

  23. Re:If he did, he would be wrong on Judge Rules Web Commenter Will Be Unmasked To Mom · · Score: 4, Funny

    The mother could get a dog, and curtains. Problem solved.

    Ok, there's your nightmare material for tonight.

  25. Re:Dear Brittish friends, why do you want Stasi? on In the UK, Big Brother Recedes and Advances · · Score: 1

    You dumb ass. Nobody wants this.
    Nobody, (well perhaps Carol Vorderman) wrote to their MP and said "Gief me digital police state pl0z!?"

    Governments suck up all the power they can get, limited only by technology and democratic checks and balances. We are all in this together, because the cancer tends to spread.
    Some little bastards in your own government are looking over the deployment of the Chinese firewall right now, and saying "Yeah, that's cool. That could work here too."
    Regardless of race and nationality, if you like your rights online, then censorship and mass surveillance can not be tolerated to exist. Anywhere.

    Thankfully god wants us to be free. Which is why he gave to Moses, a stone tablet containing reference implementations of various public-key cryptography schemes, licensed under the GPL. At least that's how remember it.
