  1. Two sides to everything on Mark Shuttleworth Apologizes for Trademark Action Against Fix Ubuntu · · Score: 2

    Ok, so he does not throw their legal team under the bus and that is admirable. The knee-jerk reaction is ussualy to kick some dunce and put the blame on them. But the main point is not being adressed, why is this "feature" turned on by default? Grow a pair and just say that it is going to stay due to finacial reasons.

  2. Just a test of viability? on Three Banks Lose Millions After Wire Transfer Switches Hacked · · Score: 1

    Are there any indications pointing to that this was just a trial run for something bigger or just prudent crooks that took what they could get away with?

  3. "forfeit the sites to the U.S. government" on US DOJ Drops Charges Against Two Seized Websites · · Score: 2

    English not being my first language I read "forfeit the sites to the U.S. government" as U.S government want the domains to be dropped by their owners. Why would they comply when the charges have been dropped? O.o

  4. Re:Where can I buy one? on Order Limit On Raspberry Pi Lifted · · Score: 1

    It's called Google mate, try it :) or the second link in the text which have links to both companies

  5. Re:Culmination of a dream on The Supreme Court To Rule On Monsanto Seed Patents · · Score: 1

    Study confirming the finds in 2001 can be found in Molecular Ecology Vol 21 (24 Issues in 2012) Article name: impact of genetically modified organisms

  6. Re:Culmination of a dream on The Supreme Court To Rule On Monsanto Seed Patents · · Score: 1

    I believe that about ten years ago it was made clear that modified corn spread among the domestic strains in Mexico. It was claimed long before but was denied by the GM-industries "scientists".

  7. But police still managed to bust torrent-sites and that 15 year old anon..

  8. Re:Lesson for other hacking groups on Details Of FBI Surveillance In Lulzsec Takedown Emerge · · Score: 2

    He did tweet " the greatest trick the devil ever pulled was convincing the world he didn’t exist" and basically disapeared for a month..

  9. Re:Wiki leaks, AMRAAM dries up on Wikileaks Now Hosted By the Swedish Pirate Party · · Score: 1

    Gripen is pretty adaptable and can in worst case scenario be adapted to use R-77 (AA-12 Adder). Or just sit tight until 2015 and use MBDA Meteor which it is already prepared for.

  10. Re:Ironically, most of this is payed by EU money on The Pirate Bay Sinks And Swims · · Score: 1

    To be fair there are two representatives, Christian Engström and Amelia Andersdotter.

  11. master gives you on Go For a Masters, Or Not? · · Score: 1

    more money..

  12. Re:Is this test legal in the US...? on Dealing With a Copyright Takedown Request? · · Score: 1, Insightful

    Surely it is no suprise that years and years of being the other way is swinging back hard? And count on it getting a whole lot worse, look at the catholic church with child molestation on one side, the whole abortion view and last but not least their views on condoms.

  13. Re:Advice on Dealing With a Copyright Takedown Request? · · Score: 1

    EFF sounds like the best course of action at this point. In the future you could consider changing host to a bit more liberal country.. http://www.prq.se/ is run by the founder of The Piratebay and supposed to be pretty good.

  14. Looks pretty much like the TPB trial on RIAA Argument About Streaming To Be Streamed · · Score: 4, Insightful

    The Pirate Bay trial didnt get streamed but a bunch of dedicated live-bloggers can make a huge impact. Ridiculous arguments and outright lies get dissected, laughed at and commented to the old-style media. (who acctualy picked it up for once)

  15. Re:Prices Euro zone on The Age of Steam · · Score: 1

    The local european currencies are pretty weak compared to the euro. But this still does not explain the prices charged over Steam since there is no manufacturing/storage of the boxed games. Meh to Steam

  16. Re:But ... they said.... on Pirate Bay Operators Stand Trial On Monday · · Score: 1

    As earlier stated in comments there is precedence and also the law can also be interpreted in such a way that hosting the torrent-file itself is not a crime. But we are talking lawyers and huge organisations with big wallets..

  17. Re:Wait another 4 years on Mars Desert Research Station Simulates Mars Base · · Score: 5, Insightful

    as opposed to Bush who was a pure mercenate of pure science?

  18. Re:Another possibility on Trojan Found At Torrent Sites Insists "Downloading Is Wrong" · · Score: 0

    This has more the feeling of web sheriff, those clowns got a long history with pirate bay and have ddos'ed legit p2p services.

  19. Thanks on The Sounds of Failing Hard Drives · · Score: 4, Funny

    I had to come up with some competition for our boring christmas party and this solves it. -What is wrong with this harddrive and for bonus points who is the manufacturor? weewt!

  20. Re:How is it now? on Bill To Add Accountability To Border Laptop Search · · Score: 0

    mkey, leaving my laptop at home in december when I head over :-/ Thanks mate

  21. How is it now? on Bill To Add Accountability To Border Laptop Search · · Score: 1, Interesting

    Can one of the border plods spot a nice laptop and basically just take it? (refering to no receipt for confiscated goods) Claiming that your brand new Alienware laptop is missing would not be hard if there is no proof of confiscation.. can this realy be so?

  22. Re:Too little too late on Google Will Anonymize IP Logs Faster · · Score: 0

    They are welcome to make money if they so desire, just keep information about me non-traceable and dont hand it over to any three-letter agency or government.

  23. Too little too late on Google Will Anonymize IP Logs Faster · · Score: 0

    The subject says it all realy. Do no evil my ass

  24. That's a bit scary on Miyamoto 'Banned' From Talking About Hobbies · · Score: 0

    Are we to consider him a slave and is this legal in Japan?

  25. sphere on Roundest Object In the World Created · · Score: 1, Interesting

    Is there a reason for it to be a sphere? Easier to determin the weight?
