  1. I see scanners on Texas Considers Putting RFID Tags in All Cars · · Score: 1

    I'm seeing scanner like devices attached to concrete poles on the interstates in Jacksonville and Orlando. Cameras have been going up for a while in these areas as well. My thought is states aren't just considering rfid but they are moving full speed to implement some sort of track and trace system for all vehicles. The government has a lot of explaining to do. The 911 inside job seems to have been the excuse to get all this going: "You've been attacked, just sit back while we 'protect' you (read: assfuck you).
    ---
    Motorist: "Help me OnStar! I've locked my keys in my car!"
    OnStar: "We know Mr. Johnson. We have been monitoring you for the past five years since you bought your car. Just a minute while we unlock it. [pause] Oh no Mr Johnson, you have an unpaid parking ticket. I'm afraid you'll have to pay it before we can unlock your car. A tow truck is being dispatched. There are many fine hotels nearby. You want me to recommend one?"

    Yeah. That was a fucking idiotic ad-laden bunch of nada.

    Yeah. That movie gets an 18% rating at RottenTomatoes.com. People are idiots to even watch garbage like that for free.

    Any old method to make people comfortable with surveillance. Start 'em at birth.

  7. Clinton on Robotic Arm Controlled By Monkey Thoughts · · Score: 0, Offtopic

    Yeah? Well that's nothing. Just the other day Clinton went into the hospital for a "heart" operation, but he was actually having a chip removed. How you like dem apples?

  8. Piracy? on United Kingdom Leads the World in TV Downloads · · Score: 1

    Really, this sounds more like time shifting than piracy.

  9. Someone on Random Number Generator That Sees Into the Future · · Score: 1

    saw into the future on that story. Like April 1st.

  10. Invite Only? on Hatemongering Becoming A Problem On Orkut · · Score: 1

    Then how does the media write a story about it? --- I see brainwashed people.

  11. Let's focus on Mars on NASA Proposes Warming Mars · · Score: 1
    so we don't notice what's happening here:

    Three hurricane paths intersect in single season. Never happened before.

    South Atlantic's first hurricane? Probably never happened before.

    1977 U.N. treaty banning military created earthquakes and tsunamis. Isn't that interesting.

    However, I know from experience that disagreeing with the premises of a Slashdot story means this comment will remain at 1 or below. Yeah, reframing the argument is probably off topic on the post-911/idiotized Slashdot.

    Umm, Yes!

  13. Re:Just ONE request... on Grand Challenges For The Next 20 Years · · Score: 1

    A stronger longer lasting battery would be nice, but sometimes it's not the battery but the high energy consumption of the device. I recently switched from a four AA battery reading light with a standard bulb (a Fliplite) getting about 8 hours of use to this reading light with brigher LED's giving about 100 hours on 3 AAA's.

  14. Re:duh on Talking with Timothy Miller · · Score: 1
    Welcome to the new Slashdot. It is dumbed down. I think it started 9/11/2001. If you post outside a narrow range of tolerances you will be modded off topic. It's full of corporate trolls, just look at the gleeful Real Player adding mp3 story from yesterday. Microsoft almost gets more billing than Linux. I suspect AIBots or something similar posting crap messages trying to influence public opinion. I suspected when Slashdot was bought by a publically traded company it was the beginning of the end. I think I am correct. Malda should be publically humiliated.

    I'm looking for the old Slashdot (a new place to learn/discuss) but haven't found it yet. Any ideas?

    BTW, I'd give your message a +1 if I had the points to give.

  15. Re:No idea on Real Pays For Legal MP3 Playback On Linux · · Score: 1
    I must say that RP10 takes up little screen space, has nice controls, and I've never been subjected to any ads.

    That's just because this is the first stage of the takeover.

    Seriously though, there is some serious corporate trolling going on in this story.

  16. Re:Already Flipped on A Countdown To Global Catastrophe? · · Score: 1
    One of their opinions was that climate change is already underway. Essentially the switch was flipped some fifty or so years ago.

    The first known government funded weather experiment was in 1890. And by now much of the weather may be under the control of man. What is the evidence of weather control? I don't claim any of this as evidence, but I do find it interesting:

    Three hurricanes in 2004 intersect in a short period of time. This has never happened before. And over the town of Homeland?

    image 1
    image 2

    How would your steer a hurricane? Hurricanes are steered by high/low pressures and wind currents. By heating or cooling large enough sections of the troposphere you might control updrafts/downdrafts and create the steering high/low pressures. Technologies to heat up the atmosphere: HAARP perhaps?

    South Atlantic (south of the equator) in 2004 seems to experience its first (as far as they know) hurricane.

    The 2004 tsunami? The U.N. had a convention in 1977 discouraging military induced earthquakes and tsunamis.

    It's easy to be spun off into the dialectics of whether global warming is true or false, or whether it's global warming or global cooling. But why not man made global weather control? You create a weather crisis that allows you to bring in weather control that people will be more inclinded to accept. Purpose: a control mechanism for a one world government.

  17. Voices on Through The Steve Ballmer Looking Glass · · Score: 1

    Ballmer and Gates have the same timbre in their voices. Almost as if they'd grown up in the same home. Must be a Northwest thing because it seems more unique than an accent.

    He's from New England. Kennebunkport Maine to be exact. The Texas thing is just for show; makes citizens feel like they're not being ruled by bluebloods.

  21. Questionable time frame on Do You Want to Live Forever? · · Score: 1
    ...introduces us to the computer scientist, and self-taught biologist, Aubrey de Grey, who thinks immortality could be within our grasp by 2030.

    Subtract 50 years for secret government research and this was already possible in the 1980's. Perhaps before.

  22. Star Trek parallel universes on 'Star Trek: Enterprise' Cancelled? · · Score: 1

    I found it interesting that in a recent interview, music from a 1940's U.N. promo film contained themes/riffs surprisingly similar to the original Star Trek theme. See the "American Union 2005.mp3" file. According to the interviewer Roddenberry was promoting a political agenda.

    The man said he was appalled. That's not a minor grievance.

  24. Nope on Bizarre Deep Sea Fish Dredged Up By Tsunami · · Score: 1

    No no. The fish were just a ruse from the submarine to make the other submarine think they were blowed up. Really!
