  1. Re:Absurd on Congress Dumps James Webb Space Telescope · · Score: 1

    Oh noes...utopia...how terrible.

  2. Re:Absurd on Congress Dumps James Webb Space Telescope · · Score: 3, Insightful

    If you think the Repubs are going to do any of that, you're dreaming. They're busy pandering.

  3. Re:Agreed on EVE Online Players Rage, Protest Over Microtransactions · · Score: 1

    The special mounts are cosmetic. There is nothing about them that you couldn't get with an in-game mount.

  4. Re:Rotten Apple on Apple Sued Over Use of iCloud Name · · Score: 1

    Apple dealt with the registered owners of the trademark. If "iCloud Communications" didn't register then obviously Apple did their due diligence. iCloud Communications were either lazy, cheap, or incompetent.

  5. Re:Rotten Apple on Apple Sued Over Use of iCloud Name · · Score: 1

    Apple bought the trademarks from the actual company that owned them. iCloud Communications *never* registered a trademark for either "iCloud" or "iCloud Communuications"

  6. Re:WTF? on Crowdsourcing Analysis of the Palin Email Trove · · Score: 3, Insightful

    Someone reads too much World Nut Daily.

  7. What? on Apple Nixes iPad Giveaways · · Score: 1

    I'm usually ambivalent toward Apple, but if the people giving the items away legally purchased them, then they can dispose of them as they see fit. Fuck Apple.

  8. Re:Total BS on FDA Sued To Stop Antibiotic Abuse On Factory Farms · · Score: 2
  9. Re:So? on AppleCare Reps Told To Skirt Malware Questions · · Score: 1

    A Mac is a bog standard Intel PC with a different OS. So I really don't see your point.

  10. So? on AppleCare Reps Told To Skirt Malware Questions · · Score: 0, Troll

    Microsoft doesn't support removal of the hordes of malware on it's platform either.

  11. Re:Been here a while... on Bin Laden Hideout Recreated In Counter-Strike · · Score: 1

    In other words...gossip.

  12. Re:New-Gen Reliability on Is the Gaming Industry Moving Online Too Fast? · · Score: 1

    I felt they were just cramming too much hardware in a limited space. The 360 and PS3 are essentially PCs but unlike a modern PC have to withstand much more abuse than the average desktop, and because of the need to make a consumer device small enough to fit in an entertainment center they just don't have the luxury of the same level of cooling.

  13. Re:Let's be realistic on CNET Sued Over LimeWire Client Downloads · · Score: 1

    Where was TCP/IP developed? Thank you for playing.

  14. 15c on Hewlett Packard's Cult Calculator Turns 30 · · Score: 2

    If you find one in the wild, and don't have a personal use for it, Ebay it. Those things are worth their weight in gold. Sold one for almost $200.

  15. Re:Scumbag President(s) on Osama Bin Laden Reported Dead, Body In US Hands · · Score: 4, Interesting

    Looks like he gave plenty of credit where it was due, and being Commander-in-chief. It WAS his call.

    1. Eat shit

  17. Re:Great! on Rep. Bill Posey Introduces 'Back To the Moon' Bill · · Score: 1

    Aw that's cute, but the Repukes get a free pass when they did the exact same thing.

  18. Re:A better idea on Rep. Bill Posey Introduces 'Back To the Moon' Bill · · Score: 0

    Note to mods: A dissenting opinion is *not* flamebait.

  19. Re:Great! on Rep. Bill Posey Introduces 'Back To the Moon' Bill · · Score: 1

    Simple question, what have the Republicans done to help with unemployment and the economy since they've been in control?

  20. Re:A better idea on Rep. Bill Posey Introduces 'Back To the Moon' Bill · · Score: 1, Insightful

    Would you rather the Moon and other celestial bodies be carved up by megacorps?

  21. Re:TV Doesn't Grok Sci-Fi on Revolution of the Science Fiction Authors · · Score: 1

    "but you can't accuse the networks of not supporting them." - ST:TNG & DS9 were both syndicated, and were not shown on any specific network.

  22. Media shredder on Erasing CDs By Using 150,000 Volts of Electricity · · Score: 1

    At my old job we bought a decent cd shredder. I think that pulling data off of hundreds of little bits of CD would be pretty secure.

  23. Re:Sugar is not only toxic but it's addictive. on Is Sugar Toxic? · · Score: 1

    The fiber in the fruit makes all the difference.

  24. Congratuations Apple on Apple Sues Samsung Over Galaxy Phones and Tablets · · Score: 0

    I've defended you through a lot of what I thought was just mindless bitching on /. but I can't defend this. This is the dumbest suit I've seen in a long time.

  25. Re:Catch-22 on White House Releases Trusted Internet ID Plan · · Score: 1

    Must not read much /. then.
