  1. Re:Round 1..... on Google Nervous About Verizon's Open Access · · Score: 1

    I remember watching "The Naked Detective" when I was a middle schooler. It was the most absurd softcore porn I'd ever seen.

  2. Re:I tried, I really did. . . on Orson Scott Card Blasts J.K. Rowling's Lawsuit · · Score: 1

    Sure it is. Welcome to the internet.

  3. Re:Psystar- cheap, but is it a deal? on Psystar Open Computer Notes, Benchmarks and Video · · Score: 1

    Since companies like Psystar can buy parts at much lower prices than we can, it seems like Psystar is making a nice profit on each system. In contrast, when I try to "build" a Newegg PC that's comparable to a cheap HP or Dell, the HP or Dell is always cheaper. From what I've heard, this might be just some dude in his garage. If thats the case, he might be buying newegg. Still, nice profit.

    I think you're on to something there.

    Good deal of software "solutions" for this type of business do take screenshots. Only safe way is to pick up a cheap ass linux laptop.

    I used to have to use iwpriv and iwconfig in Ubuntu myself, may still have to if I get my linux laptop running again.

  7. Re:One point... on Ben Stein's 'Expelled' - Evolution, Academia and Conformity · · Score: 1

    No, its not. That idea is irrelevant to academic discourse and is purely philosophical.

  8. Re:Yes, and yes. on Hardy Heron Making Linux Ready for the Masses? · · Score: 3, Informative

    I've bricked mine with that before, but its easy to fix the MBR.

    I can prove to you I'm not completely made out of iron.

  11. Re:Logic and evidence be damned on Blogger Subpoenaed for Criticizing Trial Lawyers · · Score: 2, Insightful

    religion: While the news probably didn't reach your mom's basement, the antagonism between "science" and "religion" only started in earnest in the last two hundred years. For the thousand years before that, science and its precursors were thoroughly entwined with religion, both supported by and supporting in exchange the dominant religion of their land. Any stores you have to the contrary are, sadly, more properly called "Atheist Mythology" than anything else. The Atheist Mythology of the Galileo. Fascinating. It'd make more sense to say Science and Religion get along well, as long as the former doesn't waltz into the latter's territory.
  12. Re:Silent Spring all over again on Blogger Subpoenaed for Criticizing Trial Lawyers · · Score: 1

    I wouldn't call it grief, but its certainly an intense and lasting stress that most of us here can't understand. I don't think theres a state of "finished". The closest I can get is how it felt taking care of my grandmother for so many years.

    Don't correct his grammar and then misspell a word, it makes you look bad!

  16. Re:Well that is because laws are inherently meant on OOXML Will Pass Amid Massive Irregularities · · Score: 1

    Jesus, you're absolutely insane. Your telling everyone you dance around in an herb garden and drove slightly less than 500 miles to DC every other day. New york to DC is only 200 miles. Your either the fruitiest trucker I've ever encountered in any way shape or form, or a true nutcase.

  20. Re:Mobil card ms are NUTS... on Ads With Your Name On Them · · Score: 1

    I was going to note that, but then I figured "This guy HAS to be putting us on." How could anyone write that much and NOT think of the obvious?

  21. Re:Pretty much. on A Virus that Attacks Brain Cancer · · Score: 1

    Do you talk out of your ass as a profession? What we're talking about here is a controlled infection, no worse than a vaccination. The worst you could end up with is killing the host. If you're worried about some nasty disease mutating from a virus like this, worry more about the real rabies, not a single instance of it from the same family. The real rabies is in the wild. And on a side note, a virus isn't a microbe. Quit trying to sound smart and lurk some more.

  25. Re:What does this say on Comcast Gets Hard Up At FCC Meeting · · Score: 1

    You compare sitting in a do-nothing meeting to selling crack, and you clarify that you're not implying crack should be illegal(which you never implied). I really don't think I'm going to listen to you about ethics my man. No offense.
