  1. Re:This is why you read the fine print... on McAfee Artemis Claims Protection Online, On-the-Fly · · Score: 2, Insightful

    Sounds like a service for McAfee. This should speed up identification and protection for the customer, but ultimately, what if the customer doesn't want to participate in your R/D?

  2. Re:All I can say... on Speculation On Large-Scale Phone Location Snooping · · Score: 2, Informative

    ...is read your EULAs!!!

    Oh look, here on page 13, "You hereby agree to the NSA spying on you without any legal notification of any kind."

  4. Re:Great for the environment on Hacking Esquire's E-ink Cover · · Score: 1, Flamebait

    Most of these magazines are going to end up in landfills with all the toxic materials that are in the display, batteries, chips, and PCBs. Thank you Esquire.

    OMG blah blah blah...

    Toxic today, useful compound tomorrow. Now I'm not suggesting the world go overboard, but life evolves around the materials on earth.

    I know it seems that wearing dirty underwear and eating out of communal dishes will save the earth, but that's just the hippie in you being a short sighted idiot.

    My wife needs to stop advertising that I'll get some if I do the dishes. I'd hate to call her a whore or anything...

    Interesting since they haven't been "running on Microsoft technologies" for "the past six years"...

  7. Re:Good lord, they're running on Windows? Why? on The London Stock Exchange Goes Down For Whole Day · · Score: 2, Insightful

    I love to bash windows as much as the next guy, but I don't see the connection.

    Developing an application on .NET does not transfer all your responsibility to Microsoft.

  8. Re:Kill DST instead!!!! on US DoD Poll On Leap Seconds · · Score: 0, Troll

    DST increases the productivity of the workforce. Just compare Arizona with the rest of the nation.

    Common law makes it illegal to question a womans virtue. Consider these insults illegal:

    I hate the fad of anonymous sources today.

    Doesn't anonymous source = baseless article?

    An american company builds a watercraft designed by a californian and sold in the states via a quote from one of 2 sales reps with american numbers... Why is the price in franks?

    Oh, I forgot to mention I'm selling global warming resistant tin foil hats.

  13. Re:She will. on 1,500-Ship Fleet Proposed To Fight Climate Change · · Score: 2, Insightful

    You mean the data that shows both warming and cooling patterns? OMG climate change!!! It may be the next ice age, or it may be unsurvivably hot temperatures, but either way it's big, it's mean, and it's going to get you!

    The only thing that could save us now is a fleet of ships spraying salt water into the air!!!

  14. Re:Folding@Home on Prions Observed Jumping Species Barrier · · Score: 2, Insightful

    It's like every /. article is an opportunity to espouse the same posts in a previous article. Let me save all the future posters their breathe...

    Dirty energy is bad.

    DMCA is stoopid.

    Scientists can't predict the climate accurately for the upcoming weekend.

    Washed-up political figures predict the climate in a couple of decades from now and people scream "end of the world"

    I'm sorry guys, the data is not in.

    What are they trying to win? They afraid the courts are going to take away all their monopoly money one day?

  17. Dear people of earth on 1,500-Ship Fleet Proposed To Fight Climate Change · · Score: 4, Insightful

    You guys don't trust your expert meteorologist's weather over the next several days. Please stop trusting your politicians about weather over the next several decades.

    In Soviet Russia cops shoot you.

    If you don't mod that up, how about...

    Creationists are dumb.

  19. Re:Politics out of science? what about religion? on Obama Answers Science Policy Questionnaire · · Score: 1

    The point of the electoral college is to overcome the exact problem you are describing.

    Creationists don't just live in backward states, unless you mean all 50 are backwards.

    I guess the easiest way to get modded up on /. is to bash creationists. Don't let the Bible get your ponytail in a knot.

    After all publishers sign on, can we then ignore them and go looking for terrorists?

  22. Re:Carbon Dating on Nuclear Decay May Vary With Earth-Sun Distance · · Score: 1

    The point is, there is an unconsidered variable. Not just the distance from the sun need be considered. Or other small effects such as solar flares.

    We simply do not have enough data to know how constant our sun has been. We can't even agree if it's getting hotter on earth, let alone the net neutrino emission change as a function of time from the sun.

    Anyhow, I hope someone builds a solaraltimeter device with this technology so I can know my current altitude with respect to the sun at all times.

  23. Re:Oh noes!!1! on Compromised SSH Keys Lead To Linux Rootkit Attack · · Score: 1

    Sounds a little exaggerated. Unless you mean "minutes" in the loosest sense, as in anywhere from 0 to 10^3000 minutes.

    I read the article and it only reports half the story.

    Sure he tells us all about his password and what he is using. But what was his account name?
