    ... I've yet to find any that would fire on US citizens, unless they were like radical Islamic types or similar.

    So, all the government has to do is to declare somebody a radical Islamic or similar and the army won't mind firing on that US citizen. Nice concept!

    I can't believe this remark gets +5 Informative!

    I second that. What kind of fucked up childhood does a person have, to make them honestly believe that securing your own shit is somehow someone else's problem?

    Most Americans?

  4. Re:How will this affect Building your OWN PC? on Red Hat Will Pay Microsoft To Get Past UEFI Restrictions · · Score: 1

    It may be just me, but I seem to recall I must have a motherboard in order to start building my own computer. And guess what, BIOS/UEFI is on the motherboard. So it won't matter if you buy a pre-built computer or build your own, the firmware is already there.

    Sure Goldmans etc got their money, but it means the ordinary investors get ripped off.

    Wasn't that the whole point?

    Really? Try telling this to US.

  7. Re:Facebook on Golden Age of Silicon Valley Is Over With Facebook IPO · · Score: 2, Interesting

    Posting on failbook that you're taking a shit is NOT keeping in touch with people. Mailing them when you have something important to share IS.

  18. Re:"Votes" on Congresswoman and Staff Gunned Down · · Score: 1

    And this would be a good method for testing how much real love the politicians get: line them up in front of ordinary armed people a couple of months after they are elected. The good ones will survive.

  19. Re:Early Development on College Students Lack Scientific Literacy · · Score: 1

    And that's how it should be. The system needs drones, not people who can think for themselves.
