  1. Re:404 Not Found on Link Rot and the US Supreme Court · · Score: 1

    That's a copyright violation. Let's hope that those court documents will never be seen by a lawyer.

  2. Re:*sigh* on Apple Sells Nine Million iPhones Over Weekend · · Score: 1

    You may be in the market for one of these. Sadly no iOS but they do have "Exclusive ring tones and alerts played by the London Symphony Orchestra" and at $10K for an ugly case and very little functionality they make iPhones look cheap.

  3. You don't think that the powerful sit on a pile of cash do you?
    We make our money work for us by investing it in commodities and businesses and reap that sweet sweet profit.

  4. Re:In other news on Apple Starts Blocking Unauthorized Lightning Cables With iOS 7 · · Score: 1

    Well it is called Lightning...

  5. Re:In other news on Apple Starts Blocking Unauthorized Lightning Cables With iOS 7 · · Score: 1

    Apple led the way? Switched mode powers supplies have been the standard for phone chargers since the late '90s.

  6. Re:In other news on Apple Starts Blocking Unauthorized Lightning Cables With iOS 7 · · Score: 1

    Do you get bitcoins for regurgitating this PR crap that has been dealt with at least three times already in this thread or are you doing this for free? In either case I hope that you get your life back together soon.

  7. Re:Old ipod Shuffle cable... on Apple Starts Blocking Unauthorized Lightning Cables With iOS 7 · · Score: 1

    Is it me or does that plug look like a raised middle finger?

  8. Re: What's the word on Homeless, Unemployed, and Surviving On Bitcoins · · Score: 5, Funny

    I would, but you'll only spend it on Silk Road.

  9. Re:Courts should stamp this out on One Man's Battle With Patent Trolls · · Score: 1

    One more reason not to participate in surveys.

  10. Re:Courts should stamp this out on One Man's Battle With Patent Trolls · · Score: 1

    And the pound should be threatened with foreclosure by an evil developer.

  11. Re:Important part the summary neglected on South African Research Team Creates World's First Digital Laser · · Score: 1

    Illegitimi non carborundum!

  12. Re:Excellent! on Abandoned UK National Health Service IT System Has Cost $16bn... So Far · · Score: 1, Redundant

    Terrible. Government taking over health care and a mere 50 years later they waste billions on an IT project.

  13. Re:Duh... on Belgium Investigates Suspected Cyber Spying By Foreign State · · Score: 1

    The other countries could just leave the dollar as international trade standard.

    They'd have to sell off most of their US assets first, and do it carefully so as not to give the game away. Don't want to crash an economy you're heavily invested in.

  14. Re:Spy on them early on... on No Child Left Untableted · · Score: 1

    Good mindless cetacean? You mean like Flipper?

  15. Re:Set course for accountability... on NSA Chief Built Star Trek Like Command Center · · Score: 1

    Why? Because a chair costs that much?

    It's not a chair. It's a throne. The fucker crowned himself king. You are his subject. Now shut up and kneel before your master.

  16. Re:The Only Proper Response to Patent Trolls on "Patent Troll" Closes Controversial Podcast Patent Deal With SanDisk · · Score: 2

    Plastic explosives? That doesn't sound very biodegradable at all. Composted left-leaning newspapers soaked in free-range nitroglycerin is where it's at these days.

  17. Re:Usable Fingerprint data? on German Data Protection Expert Warns Against Using iPhone5S Fingerprint Function · · Score: 4, Interesting

    There is no evidence either way. Better err on the side of caution. There wasn't any evidence of iPhones logging GPS data either, until somebody found it.

  19. Anything that involves an aura is bullshit.

    Unless it's a migraine then its just shit.

    Are you going to lay a transatlantic cable or will I?

  21. Re:Alright folks, prepare for Twitter to suck... on Twitter Seeking To Go Public · · Score: 1

    It's just a website that let's you post a few characters at a time.

    But before you know it they bring in new terms of service with more restrictions on the kind of messages being allowed (don't want to tarnish the corporate image you know) and suddenly they start becoming a lot more flexible about the sharing of user information. The pattern is depressingly predictable.

  22. Re:Should be a tax on every transaction on Flash Mobs of Trading Robots Coalescing To Rule Markets · · Score: 5, Funny

    Being European, I prefer 1789. Off with their heads!

  23. Re:I wonder... on Snowden Nominated For Freedom of Thought Prize · · Score: 1

    How about the US government? If Snowden is recognized as a dissident then the US government would be the equivalent of the Soviet Politburo.

  24. Re:Why do we care again? on John McAfee Triggers the Ultimate False Positive · · Score: 2

    I can't speak for everybody but for me it's entertaining to see rich idiots do stupid shit. It's not very mature or sophisticated of me I know but it gets me through the day.

    Economic prosperity mostly depends on international trade which in turn depends on goodwill.
