  1. Re:Try 30-40 years on Global Warming 5 Million Years Ago In Antarctic Drastically Raised Sea Levels · · Score: 1

    40 years ago we were going into a deep freeze according to our climate "scientists"

    Aw, geez, not this shit again.

  2. If the FTC wants to cut bullshit patent suits on Patent Trolls Getting the Attention of the Feds · · Score: 2

    it can start by not issuing bullshit patents.

  3. Re:I own the rights to the letter E on line on HBO Asks Google To Take Down "Infringing" VLC Media Player · · Score: 1

    Now, that night-wing'd fowl placating my sad fancy into waiting
    On its oddly fascinating air of arrogant disdain,
    "Though thy tuft is shorn and awkward, thou," I said "art not so backward
    Coming forward, ghastly Black Bird wand'ring far from thy domain,
    Not to say what thou art known as in thy own dusk-down domain!"
    Quoth that Black Bird, "Not Again".

  4. Re:In otherwords on America's First Eco-City: Doomed From the Start · · Score: 4, Funny

    libertarianism is entirely about rationalism

    Oh, wait, you're serious.

  5. Bullshit bingo on Oracle To Stop Developing Sun Virtualization Technologies · · Score: 2

    "tightly align Oracle's future desktop virtualization portfolio investments with Oracle Corporation's overall core business strategy"

    WTF does that mean?

  6. So what did he search for on Amazon One-Click Chrome Extension Snoops On SSL Traffic · · Score: 1

    such that rense.com would be the first search result?

  7. Re:Mood detection was to be added to phone trees on Microsoft Research Adds 'Mood Detection' To Smartphones · · Score: 1

    Most likely, everyone figured out that they could yell and swear and raise holy hell and finally get a human being on the line; and since nobody wants to talk to those stupid computers[1], they started yelling and swearing and raising holy hell and getting through to a human being. And we can't have that, now, can we?

    [1] Hey, you out there! Mr. Customer "Service" Guy, where "service" is the way that a hog services a sow! (Not necessarily the parent to this post, of course.) NOBODY WANTS TO TALK TO THOSE STUPID COMPUTERS, and when I am king of the world that is the first thing that will be banned, on penalty of public hanging with your rotting bodies being left to the crows.

  8. Re:Open Source is similar to the Tea Party ... on The IRS vs. Open Source · · Score: 1

  10. I wouldn't count on the NRA on QANTAS Wants To Monitor Frequent Flyers' Home Internet · · Score: 5, Insightful

    When tyranny comes to America, the NRA members will not be fighting the government. They will be at the rallies, waving flags and chanting slogans between the Sousa marches.

  11. I have a few selected gestures for the jackboots on Wi-Fi Signals Allow Gesture Recognition All Through the Home · · Score: 1

    but 2.4 GHz into 299,792,458 m/s is about 12 cm, probably too long to recognize my middle finger.

  12. Re:Seems hollow. on White House Announces Reforms Targeting Patent Trolls · · Score: 1

    First to invent made sense a century ago when an inventor in California might need several days to reach Washington. It really doesn't make sense today.

  13. Re:Newsflash: Teens make bad decisions on Teens, Social Media, and Privacy · · Score: 2

    What business gathers, government can rifle through. It doesn't even require a warrant, unless the business refuses to cooperate. Which they ain't gonna do. It would put those sweet government contracts at risk.

    If business doesn't gather it, government will have to do so for its own damn self. Which burdens their budget and can at least in theory be challenged in court.

  14. Great to have you right wingers aboard! on Medical Firm Sues IRS For 4th Amendment Violation In Records Seizure · · Score: 2

    It's wonderful that you're finally concerned about the Fourth Amendment!

  15. Re:Hazardous to our Health on Medical Firm Sues IRS For 4th Amendment Violation In Records Seizure · · Score: 1

    denying tax-exempt status to right-wing political groups

    Propaganda. Not one Tea Party group that kept its application was denied.

  16. Re:Small government Republicans my ass. on N. Carolina May Ban Tesla Sales To Prevent "Unfair Competition" · · Score: 1

    I see at least two of the Slashdot Tea Party Contingent® can't explain how this is in favor of Freedom® and Small Government®.

  17. Small government Republicans my ass. on N. Carolina May Ban Tesla Sales To Prevent "Unfair Competition" · · Score: -1, Troll

    Or would any of the Slashdot Tea Party Contingent® like to explain how this is in favor of Freedom® and Small Government®?

  18. So would it be all right if... on Florida Teen Expelled and Arrested For Science Experiment · · Score: 4, Interesting

    Suppose that she had been a he, had been white, had been the star quarterback and was expelled and charged as an adult for exactly the same act.

    No one would say it was about race or anything else of that sort. Would that make it any less outrageous?

  19. In other news, on Lawyer Loses It In Letter To Patent Office · · Score: 1

    the PTO sometimes rejects patent applications.

    I'd have never known that s/h/it was there if it wasn't for you. Don't feed the trolls.

  24. Re:Defense against tyranny, and simply self-defens on Digging Into the Legal Status of 3-D Printed Guns · · Score: 1

    T

    If tyranny comes to our country, the entire armed population will need to fight

    When tyranny comes to America, the ones most gung-ho about the Second Amendment will be the ones waving flags and chanting slogans between the Sousa marches.

  25. Re:Another first? on For Jane's, Gustav Weißkopf's 1901 Liftoff Displaces Wright Bros. · · Score: 2

    Well, shieße! you learn something new everyday.

    The S Sharp is U+00DF, and thus part of ISO 8859-1; maybe that's what they're allowing? Here go a few more: ñ ® ÿ

    Lowercase ÿ goes through; uppercase Y with umlaut/diaresis doesn't. Euro sign € goes through. The "universal currency symbol" U+00A4 doesn't.

    Conclusion: it's ISO 8859-15.

    And I'm sure it should be Scheiße; the German Language capitalizes all Nouns.
