  1. Good, but not quite the best on The Greatest Keyboard Ever Made · · Score: 1

    Northgate's keyboard in the "Jerry Pournelle" format was the world's best keyboard.

  2. Re:The Carbon Tax on The Last Three Months Were the Hottest Quarter On Record · · Score: 2

    Carbon dioxide is part of the atmosphere. You cannot avoid inhaling it unless you have a very unique gill system.

  3. OD'ing on Tylenol on Hair-Raising Technique Detects Drugs, Explosives On Human Body · · Score: 1

    Is a favorite method of checking out by the spoiled rich brats in the Plano/Richardson, Texas area. They get oral Mucomyst to hopefully counter act it before they die of liver complications. A lot end up on liver transplant lists.

    Tylenol( aka acetaminophen) is a good drug. Just don't get stupid with it. The main problem with this drug is that Homo sapiens is an oxymoron for the bulk of their population here on Earth.

  4. Re:good on Canadian Teen Arrested For Calling In 30+ Swattings, Bomb Threats · · Score: 1

    I can only imagine the hue & cry when there is a true emergency that ends up with numerous body bags filled since SWAT took time to 'investigate' to see if it wasn't a testosterone impaired 16 year old's idea of a prank.

    There are plenty of convicts that aren't old enough to be President but are doing time. He knew what he was doing. He put people's lives at risk. He needs to bear the consequence of his actions.

  5. Re:And on many bands.. on Anonymous' Airchat Aim: Communication Without Need For Phone Or Internet · · Score: 2

    Tracking down illegal transmissions is a mix of Geritol & Viagra for these 'Fox Hunters'.
    If done on the 11m CB bands, no one will care.
    Since no one uses the 70cm frequencies, it could be done there and still no one will ever notice.

  6. BAN Titanium Golf Clubs!!!!!!111!!!!!! on Titanium-Headed Golf Clubs Create Brush Fire Hazard In California · · Score: 0

    Do it for the chilluns!
    Require registration of all these dangerous fire storm creating devices. These should only allowed for professionals. Need a chief law enforcement officer's approval for purchase or transfer; then, have an 18 month background investigation to see if the new owner has ever been involved in any fire related incidents. Require a $200 tax stamp for each transfer or purchase.
    Do it for the chilluns!

  7. you cannot rehabilitate cancer on Time Dilation Drug Could Let Heinous Criminals Serve 1,000 Year Sentences · · Score: 1

    you cut it out. Then why do we coddle these predators? Why invent something new when a 9x19mm FMJ to the back of the head is simple, cheap, and quick enough? And I give a defecation about any possible pain they feel in the same they felt about the pain and suffering they inflicted upon their victims.

    What is needed is an anti time dilation drug to make certain events more tolerable.

  8. and this is a surprise on Obama Administration Transparency Getting Worse · · Score: 1, Flamebait

    in what manner?

    From a POTUS that is the most secretive about his own past?

  9. he's lucky that it was only the FBI on AMC Theaters Allegedly Calls FBI to Interrogate a Google Glass Wearer · · Score: 1

    for if the ATF was involved, they would have set the building on fire and shot him as he ran out.

  10. HOW DARE YOU!!! on Man Shot To Death For Texting During Movie · · Score: 1

    BRING LOGIC & REASON TO A SLASHDOT DOGPILE.
    How else will the snarky little twits get their cheap shots in on all their perceived villains of the world?

    BTW. Has anyone blamed Bush for this yet?

  11. Beyond EPIC to be Biblical levels on Researchers: Global Risk of Supervolcano Eruption Greater Than Previously Though · · Score: 1

    of starvation. The prevailing wind patterns are to the southeast. From Yellowstone Park to the Gulf of Mexico is the disdained 'fly over land' that produces 60% of the world's food. Destroy that, and the world would look like an Ethiopian refugee camp within a year. Nothing to look forward to having occur during your lifetime or even the next century or two.

  12. Re: Time to appeal on US Federal Judge Rules NSA Data Collection Legal · · Score: 1

    Notice how quickly Congress moved to squelch getting lists of rented movies after Robert Bork's viewing list was paraded about during his SCOTUS nomination hearings.

  13. WOW! on Want To Fight Allergies? Get a Dirty Dog · · Score: 1

    Humans and dogs have a symbiotic relationship after +20K of living together.

  14. Re:what reduction? on Senators Propose Bill Prohibiting Phone Calls On Planes · · Score: 1

    There isn't a true reduction. Just a 'reduction' in the increase.

    If there was ever a true reduction, there would weeping, wailing, and gnashing of teeth as if the 4 horse riders had arrived in D.C.

  15. If someone is going to break "Thou shalt not kill" on 3-D Printed Gun Ban Fails In Senate · · Score: 1

    then a law passed by a bunch of professional politicians in Congress and signed by a President responsible for the iron flood of guns into the hands of the Mexican cartels won't phase them.

  16. As if on Thieves Who Stole Cobalt-60 Will Soon Be Dead · · Score: 1

    it was a 'bad thing'.

  17. If he had participated for only one minute on Anonymous Member Sentenced For Joining DDoS Attack For One Minute · · Score: 1

    in a rape, how many years would he get?
    in a robbery, how many years would he get?
    in a road rage, how many years would he get?
    in a kidnapping, how many years would he get?
    in a smash and grab, how many years would he get?

    He participated in a felony and got a felony conviction.
    Play stupid games, win stupid prizes.

  18. having worked with hospice patients as an RN on Why Scott Adams Wished Death On His Dad · · Score: 1

    I can definitely tell you that if his father was in that much agony, then somebody somewhere seriously screwed up his plan of care.

    If hospice is done right, there would be no need for 'assisted suicide'.

  19. The sea levels have already risen about 30 meters on Puzzled Scientists Say Strange Things Are Happening On the Sun · · Score: 1

    since the end of the ice age. I don't see where another couple of centimeters is going to cause TEOTWAWKI. The tides vary more than that based on the Moon's Apogee and Perigee.

    The AGW fundamentalists are as attached to global warming as the Creationists are to their 'unique' views. Both of them have the same scientific basis in fact and the same wild eyed commitment to "THE TRUTH"!

  20. Has to be on Typhoon Haiyan Continues To Scourge Southeast Asia · · Score: 1

    Bush's fault.

  21. """called in the calvary""" = Calvary ?? on Tech Titans Oracle, Red Hat and Google To Help Fix Healthcare.gov · · Score: 1

    Calvary, which is also called Golgotha, is a hill.
    Cavalry is a horse or highly mobile military unit.

  22. Still waiting for the obvious on Why Can't Big Government Launch a Website? · · Score: 1

    for some Demwit to blame George W. for this failure.

  23. Re:No, YOU miss the point. on Saudi Justice: 10 Years and 2,000 Lashes For Internet Video of Naked Dancing · · Score: 1

    "Being arrogant and prideful" was Lucifer's downfall and earned him a future in a lake of fire. So, it is a 'Big Deal' to The Main Man.

    You go amiss in that you believe in graduated punishments and not there is binary choice of repentance to God or Him rejecting you to everlasting punishment. God is "Just and Merciful", just that you don't want it.

  24. Typical Blue State Behavior on Azerbaijan Election Results Released Before Voting Had Even Started · · Score: 1

    Like this isn't typical behavior in Chicago, Philadelphia, Obamagrad, or some other Democratic controlled dung heap on a regular basis.

  25. Re:Don't forget Ananias on Saudi Justice: 10 Years and 2,000 Lashes For Internet Video of Naked Dancing · · Score: 1, Troll

    Typical 'cut & paste' criticism. Acts 5:4 has:

    And after it was sold, wasn’t the money at your disposal? What made you think of doing such a thing? You have not lied just to human beings but to God

    You're wrong in that he was told to sell all his possessions. They willingly sold and donated to the community pot unlike the socialists that coerce with threats of violence or incarceration the redistribution of wealth. Acts 4:32 You miss the point that he committed blasphemy and paid the price for his insolence. You totally miss the point of the preceding 4 chapters of that book and even the 4 preceding books about calls to repentance for forgiveness and compassion.

    Your problem with Christianity is with the repentance and changing from your evil ways requirements since you want to live like a devil and get heaven as a reward.
