  1. I'm not sure how you know all this, are you a cop? If you are you have to tell me!

  2. Re:Awesome on AMD Making a 5 GHz 8-Core Processor At 220 Watts · · Score: 1

    If your definition of the thing running your fridge is "computer" you are likely more than fifty years old (I Kid!).

  3. Let me guess, everyone who disagrees with you hates the constitution? Freedom FTW.

  4. Do you still beat your wife?

  5. Re:How stupid is a Mac Pro Cylinder? on Apple Shows Off New iOS 7, Mac OS X At WWDC · · Score: 1

    Anyone considering buying one of these is likely involved in a data intensive process of some kind and already has plenty of external storage. Didn't the old Mac Pro only have two internal hard drive slots? Those won't hold a lot of 4k video, even if they are both 3TB.

  6. Re:Lossless is impossible with digital on FLAC Gets First Update In 6 Years · · Score: 1

    Direct to disc recording is not a serious option, if I was planning an all analogue live workflow I would mix live to my Studer A807 then cut a record from that master. Why would anyone ever go direct to disc live?

  7. Re:Latest and greatest? on FLAC Gets First Update In 6 Years · · Score: 1

    Must record cutting lathes have banks of EQ and compressors built in, so it's basically like another mastering stage to cut a record. You can change the sound significantly.

  8. Re:America never had a 90% tax rate on What Charles G. Koch Can Teach Us About Campaign Finance Data · · Score: 1

    Is that the same name we give to the "tax is theft" fallacy?

  9. Re:WTF is income equality? on What Charles G. Koch Can Teach Us About Campaign Finance Data · · Score: 1

    Why don't you ask those Billionaires who (to all intents and purposes) have infinite money. Where is all their money?

  10. Re:Never Heard of Office 360 on Pondering the Future of a Re-Org'd Microsoft · · Score: 1

    And the awesome spell checker.

  11. Re:Constitution on The NSA: Never Not Watching · · Score: 1

    It's a phone company, you'll get lovely free minutes, everyone loves those, right?

  12. Re:Why is it a consumer isue? on It's Time To Start Taking Stolen Phones Seriously · · Score: 1

    Amateur opportunistic would do this. Anyone who was serious about it would immediately switch it off and likely ship it abroad.

  13. Re:Overwhelming on US Mining Data Directly From 9 Silicon Valley Companies · · Score: 1

    Funny thing about third parties is they can say whatever the fuck they want when they have no chance of winning.

  14. Re:Amazon undrestands books, publishers only contr on Amazon: Publishers Strong-Armed Us On E-Books · · Score: 1

    That's my fucking time, maybe I like going to the shop and browsing books. Are you saying they deserve to be paid extra for giving me the "luxury" of sitting on my arse all day? It's a cheaper product. You're clearly the same bullshit AC that's all over this thread shilling for someone. At least have the balls to give yourself a pretend name so we can properly respond to you instead of jumping in telling everyone they're lazy or greedy for thinking (rightly) they are getting screwed on ebook prices!

  15. Re:...and device runtime with stay the same on New All-Solid Sulfur Based Battery Outperforms Lithium Ion · · Score: 1

    That's what I thought until I bought a double size battery for my Galaxy S3, it was horrible. Ended up with the Samsung larger capacity one that is only slightly larger, it's the battery they should have put in it in the first place.

  16. It's "gadzooks".

  17. Re:There goes another Swiss Army knife on TSA Decides Against Allowing Small Knives On Aircraft · · Score: 1

    Which country do you recommend where we can all enjoy the right to carry knives on planes freely?

  18. Re:Waiting for Apple on Sony Touts 25 Hour Battery Life For Haswell-Equipped Vaio Pro · · Score: 2

    If you want to make a great laptop these days, Apple are your competition. The build quality of virtually everyone else has gone to shit. Shame about the chiclet keys though.

  19. Re:Bah, US only... on Microsoft Attempts to Woo Students With 'Crowdsourced' Laptops · · Score: 4, Insightful

    That doesn't sound like GP's problem, it sounds like ASUS' problem. Yours is accepting that "doesn't boot well from USB" is an acceptable state to sell a motherboard in.

  20. Re:real problem is: FEATURE CREEP on Vint Cerf: Data That's Here Today May Be Gone Tomorrow · · Score: 1

    I'll gladly bet with you that those all DVDs won't last one hundred years. Unless the archival problem planning you were involved in was more than ten years ago DVD was an insane option, even then it was sketchy at best.

    Tell me Cantor, does the set that contains everything really need to contain everything?

  22. Re:Market forces at work... on GMO Wheat Found Growing Wild In Oregon, Japan Suspends Import From U.S. · · Score: 1

    All that roundup is awesome for the environment I hear.

    Of course, if there were no regulations everyone behave impeccably. This has been proven time and again in places all over the world like...

  24. Re:impediments to access? on EFF Makes Formal Objection to DRM In HTML5 · · Score: 1

    Atleast in the case of movies content providers will never allow their content to be streamed without any sort of a DRM at all,

    Haven't they been doing exactly that with OTA broadcasting and VHS videos for years?

  25. Re:This solves ? on 'Smart Gun' Firm Wants You To Fund Its Prototype · · Score: 1

    Thinking you don't need a gun and neither does anyone else doesn't make you "terrified" of them. Desperately clinging to it because you are afraid someone else might have one when you don't does.
