  1. Re:Those that do on Outsourcing Winners and Losers · · Score: 0, Troll
  2. zerg on President Bush To Call For Return To Moon? · · Score: 1

    There's a reasonable chance that Bush may just be trying to look good compared to Hu Jintao who (if you believe anyone other than the U.S. media) has been looking alot better than Bush has recently.

  3. zerg on DeCSS: Jon Johansen Retrial Begins · · Score: 1

    Absolutely positively fucked, especially when the prosecutor shows the courtroom what he's been up to in the meantime (the iTunes ripper).

    Norway's one of those international countries though, so I sincerely doubt a Norwegian prison could be anything like the horrors of an American Federal or State prison... Whoopteedo.

  4. zerg on Internet Security: Where Do We Stand · · Score: 1

    Given that the magazine is the Economist, I'm surprised they didn't suggest letting "the market" work out the issues before they started screaming for the end of anonymity on the interweb.

  5. zerg on Novell's Certified Linux Engineer · · Score: 1

    Just the other day, a couple of friends were asking what Novell was good for. Now we know...

    sort of.

  6. Re:Not a good idea on Planned California Bill Targets Video Game Sales · · Score: 1

    I understand what you're saying, but video games don't give most people lung cancer and if you drive a car after playing video games, you're not overly likely to crash and burn.

    It's basically all cost and zero benefit.

    I could be wrong, but given the horrendous beating we liberals have been taking in the last few elections (I'm thinking the ones we just had, and 2002, and 2000), I think Mr. Yee needs to reassess his motherfucking priorities!

  8. Re:Need power strip for surge protection on Need... More... Power... · · Score: 1

    When the inspecters come along and decide what you're doing is a hazard, won't they order him to redo it, at cost?

  9. zerg on Apple Responds to Exploit · · Score: 1, Insightful
    This isn't so much of a root vulnerability as a default configuration that trusts the integrity of the local network services.
    If Microsoft ever said this, we'd be laughing at them. Rightfully so. WTF.
  10. OT:Kucinich Blog on Election Activism on Diebold Folds In DMCA E-Voting Lawsuit · · Score: 1

    Well, Bush never specifically used the word 'imminent' when describing the thread Saddam posed, and it certainly seems like everyone's let him off the hook, so I guess I'm sorry for putting words in your mouth.

    You mean we actually won one? Holy shit, someone pass around a hat so we can get everyone involved in the win some blowjobs and liquor!

  12. Re:Kucinich Blog on Election Activism on Diebold Folds In DMCA E-Voting Lawsuit · · Score: 1

    Wait wait wait, you're trying to tell me that a man with a proven record for standing up for the people is somehow going to be a bigger threat to our rights than another 4 years of Bush?

    WTF?

  13. zerg on Congress Expands FBI Powers · · Score: 1

    Anybody read Tommy Franks' comments about how you only need a WMD attack against the U.S. and the constitution will be swept aside in favor of a military government?

    Anyone know if it's true whether the political ratio of high ranking military officers is 9 Republicans for every Democrat?

    What crime has Jose Padilla been charged with?

    Wow, he's Puerto Rican AND Mooslime? We'd better throw the book at him! Damn straight, don't mess with the US of A!

    I believe I speak for all the Republicans visiting this site when I say, "Get a job, hippie!"

    mmmmm, and the people skills that make me want to hire you, too! *drool*

    So the next time you ask your boss for a raise, we can point at this post and say, "Does not play well with others."?

  18. Re:"next page" tag in HTML? on Mouse Gestures in Javascript · · Score: 1

    I would have posted the exact same message as you, except I would have traded "It's pretty good at figuring out what the next page should be." for "It's incredibly stupid and deciding where to take me next." It was incredibly stupid, I ended up disabling it because it was stupid...

    Nope, the problems started w/ the tax cuts, and repeated tax cuts have failed to solve anything. Oooh oooh, I know, let's have MORE tax cuts!

    9/11 changed everything!

    statutory damages of $2 million for violations, tripled to $6 million for intentional violations, unlimited damages for fraud and abuse
    So... I guess all that noise about tort reform only applies if you're a Republican donor?
  22. Re:Frivolous McDonald's lawsuit on AT&T Sues PayPal and eBay for Patent Infringement · · Score: 1

    Perhaps if boiling water inherently got people addicted to it while coffee companies worked day and night to market to kids, your analogy w/ the Tobacco lawsuits would hold water.
