  1. Re:rights on Cameron's IP Advisor: Throw Persistent Copyright Infringers In Jail · · Score: 3, Informative

    If you can withdraw it, it's a privilege.

  2. Re:Free market means exactly that ! on Network Solutions Opts Customer Into $1,850 Security Service · · Score: 1

    Free market means you have someone else to go to.

  3. Re:What's the limit? on Candy Crush Maker King.com Has Trademarked 'Candy' For Games · · Score: 1

    He was talking about copyrights you insensitive clod!

  4. Re:Planned intimidation tactic on AMC Theaters Allegedly Calls FBI to Interrogate a Google Glass Wearer · · Score: 1

    Especially given that the votes were blatantly partisan in the trial.

  5. Re:Lesson from this story...don't be a glass hole! on AMC Theaters Allegedly Calls FBI to Interrogate a Google Glass Wearer · · Score: 1

    Simple, they do so by fiat. Since it's private property they can ban whoever the fuck they want to and they don't even need a reason.

  6. Re:Lesson from this story...don't be a glass hole! on AMC Theaters Allegedly Calls FBI to Interrogate a Google Glass Wearer · · Score: 1

    Not anymore it isn't.

  7. Re:Turn them against each other on Blowing Up a Pointless Job Interview · · Score: 3, Insightful

    At least they didn't swipe your work for themselves and stiff you on consulting fees.

  8. Re: Return it to the Interviewer! on Blowing Up a Pointless Job Interview · · Score: 1

    Sorry, but you already blew it by asking the first question.

    You do not get a second chance to make a first impression. Studies also show that people do not change their minds.

  9. Re:Copyright violation. on Nagios-Plugins Web Site Taken Over By Nagios · · Score: 2

    Changing dns and copying a website are two entirely different things.

  10. microcode? on Ask Slashdot: What's the Most Often-Run Piece of Code -- Ever? · · Score: 1

    Anyone think about microcode running inside modern CPUs?

    They're practically miniature computers themselves.

  11. question on Adware Vendors Buying Chrome Extensions, Injecting Ads · · Score: 1

    Do these developers who sell the extensions even get paid? Or do they get scammed too?

  12. Re:Lock code.. on SCOTUS To Weigh Smartphone Searches By Police · · Score: 1

    Again we have that lovely "you have no right to privacy for information information in possession of a third party", in this case the third party being your carrier.

  13. Re:May Not be Open Source on China's Government Unveils 'China Operating System' To Great Skepticism · · Score: 1

    Sovereign nations are not bound by the laws of other nations.

  14. Re:Should be a fascinating read on China's Government Unveils 'China Operating System' To Great Skepticism · · Score: 1

    Just because the pot's the one calling the kettle black doesn't mean the kettle isn't actually black.

    Or, alternatively, takes one to know one.

  15. Re:Take away SCO on China's Government Unveils 'China Operating System' To Great Skepticism · · Score: 1

    SCO already got carved up in bankruptcy.

  16. Hosting a site and having a domain name are different things.

  17. It wouldn't just have a chilling effect, but would also saddle the hosting with the expenses of actively policing the site on their own dime.

    Law enforcement should be funded by tax dollars, not corporate budgets.

  18. Yes you SHOULD have to go through court for this.

    Same as with anything else that seeks to compel the behavior of another.

  19. Legitimizing on US Government To Convert Silk Road Bitcoins To USD · · Score: 1

    Well, at least by selling them and not outright destroying them or sitting on them forever, the feds have endorsed that they are at least legal to possess.

    Ironically this may actually legitimize them.

  20. Re:Exactly how???? on Microsoft Remotely Deleted Tor From Windows Machines To Stop Botnet · · Score: 1

    You don't need to be an auto mechanic to drive, and you shouldn't have to be a codemonkey to operate a computer.

    Users should be entitled to take whatever the vendor says at face value without being screwed.

  21. Re:Double bind on Man Shot To Death For Texting During Movie · · Score: 1

    My point is that being a hero is what he's paid for, ergo him being a hero doesn't give him a free ticket to kill an asshole, because he's already being compensated for his heroism.

  22. Re:Freeloaders on The Role of Freeloaders In Open Source Communities · · Score: 2

    In my opinion, diligent bug reporters aren't freeloaders. They are involuntary beta testers.

  23. Re:Why use Mute... on Google Chrome 32 Is Out: Noisy Tabs Indicators, Supervised Users · · Score: 1

    I thought the sandbox was supposed to STOP nosy tabs from snooping on each other.

  24. Re:The summary is wrong. on Man Shot To Death For Texting During Movie · · Score: 1

    Indeed, at worst it was a salt and buttery.

  25. Re:Sounds like a case of senile agitation on Man Shot To Death For Texting During Movie · · Score: 1

    Gunshots in the audience tend to get the movie put on pause anyway.
