  1. probably redundant on Ask Slashdot: Protecting Home Computers From Guests? · · Score: 1

    Extra computer, different network/workgroup/domain, different room. Who would "share" one's own machine with anyone?

  2. Say on Brown vs. Startup Over a Sandwich · · Score: 0

    Is that fun?

    What kind of people do this?
    Are they happy, where do they live, how do they look, how is their hm, sexlife?

    That would be really interesting to find out.

  4. OK, on Gartner Says 3D Printers Will Cost Less Than $2,000 By 2016 · · Score: 2

    How about the ink? Probably the same game as with current printer ink cartridges - ongoing profit maker...ripoff

    Questionable if it's fair right now and in future???

  5. Ah on Creationist Bets $10k In Proposed Literal Interpretation of Genesis Debate · · Score: 5, Insightful

    If nobody shows up for this nonsense and bets $ 10,000, it's proof that this religious believe system is true...

  6. Yet another example on China Using 'State Secrets' Label To Hide Pollution · · Score: 2

    Where the instinctual drive in humans of "caring for others" is overwritten by some other neural plugin, downloadable on many places and then run as religious. illusion, political doctrine, corporate capialistic ideology and alike.

  7. Re:And remember, on Defense Dept. Directed To Disclose Domestic Drone Use · · Score: 2

    ...they think we don't care...

    Most definitely not - secrecy is inherent to any power structure.

    Why humans are driven to power - having to dominate/exploit other's is another topic. Is it inferiority, insensitivity - psychopathy or genetic - successfully spread DNA more? Based on those drives, humans don't think, they act unconsciously and do whatever they can get by with.

  8. Those polititians can't fix the real issues, so they dream up nonsense to make headlines and get reelected.

    There is enough money around to fix all problems, it's not used properly by the people controlling it.

  12. Too much bother on Ask Slashdot: How To Convince a Company Their Subscriber List Is Compromised? · · Score: 1

    No way you can win.
    Same situation here with individual email addresses per recipient.

    If it's SPAM - report to Spamcop. After 3 SPAM's change address of individual addressee or disable it if it's older than 3 years and not used since.

    The interesting part with this game is to see how many users are putting plain email addresses in CC, so when one of the many gets compromised, everyone else on that header gets spammed.

  13. Do not track? on Ask Slashdot: Will Cars Eventually Need a Do-Not-Track Option? · · Score: 1

    In this day and age - get a life!
    Any opportunity to play with a new gadget and opportunity of tracking will be tried and used.

    So the CO2 san be safely captured and preserved for future generations on this planet.

  15. Robbing? on Ask Slashdot: Starting From Scratch After a Burglary? · · Score: 1

    Isn't robbing taking something by force at gunpoint (or other means of force) from one or more persons whereas intruding a location to take property away is burglarizing.

    I never get if someone is actually robbed with danger to bodily harm or burglarized in absence without immediate danger to bodily harm.

  16. gotta watch on Monsanto's 'Terminator' Seeds Set To Make a Comeback · · Score: 1

    that the terminator genes won't spread over to other crops as the roundup-ready goodies did. That would be real fun to watch...

  19. Re:Yet another reason on Leaked: Obama's Rules For Assassinating American Citizens · · Score: 1

    Why are you fixated on Europe? If you RTFP, you will find "rest of world".

    And - where something originated won't have any impact on consequences of actions done now except maybe in your mind dis/honoring your ancestors.

    this may be a solution while walking in public, let's say in a shopping mall and having your image on fazebook - 11 LED's.

  22. Ideas on US Postal Service Discontinuing Saturday Mail Delivery · · Score: 1

    are that
    The market is fixing it

    Privatizing improves things

    Taxes and government are bad

    Forcing the US postal service to act like a regular profit-oriented enterprise is a consequence along those lines.
    Can that be? Can a service being obligated to cover every remote side in the country adequately and always be profitable?

    What actually happens is diminishing of service quality.
    Postal employees apparently are forced to ask _every_ customer if they would like to buy more - stamps, insurance, return receipt, faster delivery. Personnel at the Post Office seems to be reduced with longer lines, delivery errors increase, many smaller communities loose their Mini-Post Offices. If the current trend continues, it will go much worse.

  23. Yet another reason on Leaked: Obama's Rules For Assassinating American Citizens · · Score: 3, Insightful

    for much of the rest of world to think that US is going even more nuts:

    a - murdering with drones, collateral murders don't matter, no court system/laws involved, no war declared (endless war), getting more pissed off, keep the mill going

    b - TSA shows at airports

    c - 2-class humans - NON-Americans, Americans perceived as arrogant/bullies,

  25. Sign on some airport on Will Renewable Energy Ever Meet All Our Energy Needs? · · Score: 1

    Read that 2 % of Sarahas surface could supply all human's energy needs. 0.3 % of Sarahas sun could supply Europs energy needs.

    Rethink and put military budgets into that project, convert sun energy into some different energy carrier and drive transport vessels from it and ship it to places.

    Should be possible - just not with the bums running the show right now.
