  1. Re:Not news on 'The Laws Are Written By Lobbyists,' Says Google's Schmidt · · Score: 1

    True, for cases where convince = donate money.

    Yes, keep breeding, more taxes are needed! And pay no attention to what's going on behind the curtain.

  3. Re:Wait a minute... on Microsoft Rumored To Buy Second Life · · Score: 3, Insightful

    I'm sorry that money is your defining metric for value. You should reorient yourself and focus on ideas and people, because the level of cognitive dissonance required for your moral structure has clearly impaired your ability to avoid logical fallacies.

    Oh wow, a linux basher bases his sense of worth and value around monetary wealth.

    Yes, it is better described by the conservation of angular momentum, but we all know what a centrifuge does.

  6. Re:Geeks can be warriors. on Why Warriors, Not Geeks, Run US Cyber Command Posts · · Score: 1

    A lot of it depends on your early childhood. Geeks who had to fight are generally just as 'tough' as anyone.

  7. Re:Too soon on Helicopter Crashes While Filming Autonomous Audi · · Score: 1

    I have in the past crashed into people on purpose for failing to yield or use their indicators properly. I suggest you buy a car you don't care a whole lot about, insure it, and try it. It's very, very satisfying.

  8. Re:Too soon on Helicopter Crashes While Filming Autonomous Audi · · Score: 1

    Yeah, some drivers are very territorial with their carriageway space... I agree that both lanes should fill to the end, but drives in both lanes need to match speeds so they can merge like a zip without braking and disrupting the flow. When this actually happens, it's brilliant. Usually it is hamstrung by dickheads in SUVs blocking the view of smaller cars, or by dickheads not having the situational awareness to realise that there is a merge coming up, or by dickheads who are just dickheads.

    Not for Americans. :)

    Sometimes I wonder how we ever climbed out of the muck.

    Uhhh... about that...

  12. Re:The story is.. on ISPs Lie About Broadband "Up To" Speeds · · Score: 1

    They tone the abdominal muscles, so that when you do eventually get under 7% body fat from the exercise that you do every day, you don't look like an emaciated swimsuit model.

  13. Re:I don't believe ANYTHING... on 'Wi-Fi Illness' Spreads To Ontario Public Schools · · Score: 1

    Educated for what? The only thing schools teach you is how to be part of a manageable work force. Any useful skills are outside of the scope of schooling.

  14. Re:Hmm... your statement sounds very interesting on 'Wi-Fi Illness' Spreads To Ontario Public Schools · · Score: 1

    You believe that the students aren't cattle, kept there so that we can live in isolated nuclear families where both parents can work? Sounds like the thinking of someone loosely related to reality.

  15. Re:Herbert Simon on Having Too Much Information Can Narrow Your Focus · · Score: 1

    It should be presented with a concise overview. Linked to that there should also be as much relevant detail as can be collected economically.

  16. Re:Herbert Simon on Having Too Much Information Can Narrow Your Focus · · Score: 1

    Seems like a convincing argument to get people to stop reading and go back to the coal face.

    Changing the meaning of words with Orwellian double speak is an American institution.

    thats not what pro-choice means. douche.

  19. Re:Torrents can be both legal and illegal at once on Major Flaws Found In Recent BitTorrent Study · · Score: 1

    How about, give your software away to home users and license it to businesses? That way, people will use it, and then have to pay for it when they want to use it commercially, kinda like Photoshop.

  20. Re:Earth is heaven... on Earth As an Extrasolar Planet · · Score: 1

    Silicon forms many of the same types of bonds with other elements as carbon, you were probably thinking of that instead of sulfur. :)

    Wolfenstien? You mean that sequel to Catacomb?

  22. Re:Suckaz on Onion Story Gets Blown Out of Proportion · · Score: 5, Insightful

    Calling the Nazi party 'national socialists' makes about as much sense as calling North Korea the 'democratic peoples republic of korea'. I hope you read this because it's an important lesson for you.

  23. Re:Yeah. on Warships May Get Lasers For Close-In Defense · · Score: 0, Troll

    ahahah.. 'the guts and sense of honor'

    Most of the governments and NGO's around the world that the US strangles for resources are not capable of this normal nation to nation warfare and fighting the US military head on makes about as much sense as regimental soldiers standing around waiting for the order to shoot, while getting shot.

    I dunno.. they might do something I have a moral objection too, not necessarily a criminal act. :(
