  1. Plain View Doctrine on More Drones Set To Use US Air Space · · Score: 3, Informative

    The Plain View Doctrine (or is it "Plane View"?) probably applies here unfortunately.

  2. Sounds like Tor on Anonymous' WikiLeaks-Like Project Tyler To Launch In December · · Score: 2

    P2P? Encrypted? Decentralized? Sounds like Tor to me.

    Why not just set up a Tor hidden service and be done with it?

  3. Also frist psot on Can Nokia Save Itself? · · Score: -1, Offtopic

    dibs

  4. Go back to making fishing boots on Can Nokia Save Itself? · · Score: 4, Funny

    After all, that was their core competency.

  5. Oblig: Series of tubes on How Google Cools Its 1 Million Servers · · Score: 5, Funny

    So Ted Stevens (may he rest in peace) was right! It really *is* a series of tubes!

  6. Oblig: T. S. Eliot on Ask Slashdot: How Do SSDs Die? · · Score: 4, Funny

    Not with a bang but a whimper.

  7. Re:cue the french bashing in 1, 2, 3 on These 19th Century Postcards Predicted Our Future · · Score: 4, Funny

    Now go away or I shall taunt you a second time!

  8. Why so anonymous? on Shut Up and Play Nice: How the Western World Is Limiting Free Speech · · Score: 5, Interesting

    I never thought I'd say the US was a beacon for anything without feeling embarrassed. But if protecting free speech, even hateful, intolerant, vitriolic speech, is all the US stands for then I'm damn proud to be American.
    F.U. to the cowardly countries who can't stand to hear opposing opinions that might upset someone.

  9. Eat the worm! on Why Worms In the Toilet Might Be a Good Idea · · Score: 1

    Oops. Wrong worm.

  10. Re:Ok... on What Happened To Diaspora, the Facebook Killer? It's Complicated · · Score: 1

    No, but Zuck did. Bwaahaha.

  11. Re:Touchless plumbing fixtures in the restrooms on Ask Slashdot: What Would You Include In a New Building? · · Score: 3, Funny

    Ah you must be one of the guys I hear bouncing up and down on the throne grunting.

  12. Touchless plumbing fixtures in the restrooms on Ask Slashdot: What Would You Include In a New Building? · · Score: 3, Funny

    Other than that, have at it.

  13. True Geeks on The Explosive Growth of 3D Printing · · Score: 1

    I assume this event is for True Geeks which would normally be dressed in chain mail and carry swords a la Dungeons and Dragons.
    The extra E seems appropriate.

  14. Re:Guns on The Explosive Growth of 3D Printing · · Score: 3, Interesting

    It's OK. Currently the only part of an AR-15 that's considered a "firearm" is the lower receiver and this part can be made entirely of plastic, hence the 3D printer interest. You can buy the rest of the parts such as triggers, barrels, etc completely off the books with no controls.

    If the 3D printing of lower receivers become a real "problem" to the ATF they'll just change the definition of which part of a gun is the "firearm". For instance, you can't 3D print a barrel since it has to be made of steel.

  15. Bill Nye on Torvalds Uses Profanity To Lambaste Romney Remarks · · Score: 2, Interesting

    I don't hear Bill Nye being a pussy and apologizing for calling it like it is.
    He called a sitting US Congressman a "fucking idiot" for his pseudo-scientific beliefs and followers of creationism "fucking retarded".
    Run for President, Bill. We need you.

  16. Re:The Land of Fruits and Nuts on California Legalizes Self Driving Cars · · Score: 1

    Oh, I have a clue. It's just I'll probably be dead by the time driverless cars truly come into their own. In the meantime I'd rather avoid them.

  17. Re:The Land of Fruits and Nuts on California Legalizes Self Driving Cars · · Score: 1

    Just let me know which roads they're on so I can avoid them. I have my hands full dodging crazy humans without dealing with our cyberdriver overlords to boot.

  18. The Land of Fruits and Nuts on California Legalizes Self Driving Cars · · Score: 0

    My preconceived notions regarding California have been further reinforced.

  19. Well, not really a dictatorship on Ask Slashdot: Ideas and Tools To Get Around the Great Firewall? · · Score: 1

    More like an oligarchy.

  20. "it is imperative" on Book Review: Digital Forensics For Handheld Devices · · Score: 1

    it is imperative that users install and use the highest level crypto they can lay their hands on in order to thwart the police state from seizing their data without a court order.

  21. The Bill Clinton School of Wordplay on Shuttleworth: Trust Us, We're Trying to Make Shopping Better · · Score: 1

    "It depends upon what the meaning of the word 'is' is."
    What's happened to plain speech Mr. Shuttleworth?

  22. Then why are they recruiting? on Flatlining User Base May Spell End of RIM · · Score: 2, Interesting

    I was just contacted by a RIM recruiter through a certain job site. (Of course it involves moving to Canada.)

  23. Noone at the MVA smiles on No Smiles At NJ Motor Vehicle Commission · · Score: 2

    so why should we?

  24. Invader Zim on Fusion Power Breakthrough Near At Sandia Labs? · · Score: 1

    It's been bothering me all day but I finally remembered: this reminds me of Professor Membrane's Perpetual Energy Generator.

  25. Tubes? You mean the Interwebs? on Fusion Power Breakthrough Near At Sandia Labs? · · Score: 1

    Oh. Never mind.
