  1. Re:You learn something new every day on The Tiger Effect and Internet DDoS · · Score: 1

    Rickson by armbar.

  2. Sue Them? on Oldest Computer Music Unveiled · · Score: 5, Funny

    What is the statue of limitations before the RIAA can no longer try to cash in on those early IP pirates?

  3. Re: Extend welfare and voting rights too! on SCOTUS Grants Guantanamo Prisoners Habeas Corpus · · Score: 1

    There's a difference between citizen's rights (voting, welfare) and human rights which are universally applicable (free speech, etc). Someone needs to inform China about these "universally applicable" rights.
  4. Better Candidate for the South Park Defense on How To Build a Quantum Eavesdropper · · Score: 1

    I think this story is a better candidate for the "South Park" defense than the Chinese Gov't Hackers.

  5. Re:Verfied Accounts on eBay's Plan to Force PayPal Rejected Down Under · · Score: 1

    I have the number for the Whaaambulance if you need it. Big deal, you have to click a a link, a radio button, and a confirm box. Stop bitching because your too lazy to click the mouse 3 more times.

  6. Re:Verfied Accounts on eBay's Plan to Force PayPal Rejected Down Under · · Score: 0

    This is false. Yes by default your bank account is primary, but before every transaction you send money, you can change it to send from credit card instead of bank account. I have done this for years without issue.

    I have a separate, dedicated bank account set up with a minimum balance for use only with PayPal incase I get frozen/scammed, etc.

    All purchases through PP can be made with a credit card although you have to click a few more boxes/pages in the checkout process.

  7. Re:Paypal sucks blah blah on eBay's Plan to Force PayPal Rejected Down Under · · Score: 1

    Technically, if you click the PayPal payment accepted part of the eBay auction, you HAVE to accept all forms of payment including Credit Cards. You are basically forced to upgrade your PayPal account in order to accept the CC funds, and in turn get hammered on all payments you receive in the future. That is how they got after all the people like you who had specific PayPal acceptance rules, which robbed them of their precious double dipping of fees. eBay and PayPal can go eat a dick. I will still use Craigslist until eBay (which now owns CL), somehow forces people to use PayPal for person to person transactions.

  8. Re:BSA on Boy Scouts Ask Open Source Community For Help · · Score: 1

    I thought your post was a joke with you inserting "scout" in sentences from the CoS guidebook. Pretty scary that it is not a joke.

  9. Re:BSA on Boy Scouts Ask Open Source Community For Help · · Score: 1

    They also hate jocks. They forbid us from doing sports and scouts together because most kids would rather go to practice/games/camp than Scouts. So the local troop gave an ultimatum. Well enough kids chose sports over scouting to force the troop to shut down.

  10. Re:Yeah, about fake IDs on TSA Bans Flight If You Refuse To Show ID · · Score: 1

    I just had a flashback of the Dell Delf. Giggidy.

  11. Re:2007? on Last "Hackers On Planet Earth" Conference In July · · Score: 1

    New York. Across the street from MSG. Also known as Hotel BedBug for their recent outbreak of bedbugs. Quite possibly the WORST hotel in midtown. Sure the lobby looks nice, but the rooms are hell. That POS should be torn down and rebuilt from the ground up.

  12. And? on Canadian Gov't Victim of Cyberattacks · · Score: 5, Insightful

    I'm sure we are returning the favor and have been for decades.

  13. Re:Referees on The Technology Behind the NBA Finals · · Score: 1

    Guess you didn't watch last nights game.

  14. Re:Shouldn't we outlaw bullying in schools first? on Proposed Legislation Would Outlaw "Cyberbullying" in US · · Score: 1

    1, 2, 3, 4, I love the Marine Corp 5, 6, 7, 8, if she don't love me back I'll cut myself and post the video on MySpace.

  15. Re:World's Greatest Detective on Hans Reiser To Reveal Location of Wife's Body · · Score: 1

    The correct answer was "Some Puerto Rican guy"

  16. Re:Don't all search engines do this? on Music Industry Tells Advertisers to Boycott "Pirate" Baidu · · Score: 1
  17. There is Still Craigslist on EBay Pressured To Block Sales of Ivory Products · · Score: 1

    I sell my Ivory on Craigslist so I don't get double banged on the eBay/PayPal fees. Although, I'm anticipating the day where eBay starts mandating PayPal for Craigslist face to face purchases.

  18. Re:CNet on The Greatest Defunct Websites and Dotcom Disasters · · Score: 1

    news.com domain name is why.

  19. Re:What's the RIGHT number? on Firefox Appears Ready to Crack 20% Share Next Month · · Score: 1

    16 + 18 + 40 = 74 74/3=24.666666666 So a safe estimate would be 25%

  20. Re:We already spend more than enough on education on H-1B Foes Challenge Bush Administration In Court · · Score: 1

    The problem is not money, but the parents. Many parents, especially in lower economic situations, do not support or encourage their children's education, and tend to help reverse skills they learn in school, such as proper speech and grammar.

  21. Re:This is a no-brainer on Dell Found Guilty of Fraud, False Advertising · · Score: 3, Funny

    Beats getting Apu who spends 5 minutes trying to convince you his name is "Steve".

  22. Re:It was over... on Stealing From Banks One Cent at a Time · · Score: 1

    Isn't Dick Trickle a NECKCAR driver?

  23. $50,000? on Stealing From Banks One Cent at a Time · · Score: 5, Funny

    You know what I'd do with $50,000? 2 chicks at the same time.

  24. Re:Comment from said "hacker" on Stealing From Banks One Cent at a Time · · Score: 1

    What makes him a "hacker"?

  25. Re:In Soviet Russua . . . . on Space Station Toilets Poop Out · · Score: 1

    "He called the shit "poop", AHAHAHAHA." Bonus pts to those who get it.
