  2. Re:Paranoid much on FBI Director James Comey: Cover Up Your Webcam (thehill.com) · · Score: 2

    I was going for funny. However I've never had a plus +2 flame bait before. Thats almost as good as a +1 Troll.;)

  3. Paranoid much on FBI Director James Comey: Cover Up Your Webcam (thehill.com) · · Score: 1, Flamebait

    Ive seen this before from some of my customers and yes I've thought of it. Since its possible I guess its a step you need to take but why stop there. His phone has two cameras and they need some tape also. That pinhole in the wall may be sporting a camera also. How do you know the air conditioner vents doesn't have camera. Oh MY GoD they are watching ME!

    Well of course not. Its not trolling if its 'true'.

  5. As long as its compatible with our system on US Copyright Office Sides With Cable Companies Against FCC's Set Top Rules (arstechnica.com) · · Score: 1

    You can buy you're own with our company. I've seen many junk set top boxes that will not work with hits. In fact those foreign set top boxes are usually trash and don't work well, especially with our higher bit rate HD. Higher than direct or dish I might add.

  8. Re:Rules for thee, not for me on Getty Sued For $1 Billion For Selling Publicly Donated Photos (thestack.com) · · Score: 1

    She gets $400 million for what? She's asserting that other people were wronged, that she had zero stake (she let the images out for free), and that she thus somehow is owed $400 million?/
    They sent her a letter and a bill. That is her stake.

    They are the ones who a clearly at fault. They are a repeat offender. As a repeat offender the amount is in line with the law. Getty shouldn't have claimed that which they do not own. Think of how much revenue they have collected over the years while infringing on this ladies copyright. The whole system is corrupt and broken and this may shed light on it. More likely it will cause a change in the law where companies such a Getty will receive immunity for their thefts.

  10. easy to do on The Most Popular Product Of All Time · · Score: 1

    If you stop supporting you're products after a while. When they come out with a new phone the old ones start to develop slow downs and other crap.

  11. lazy days on New York DA Wants Apple, Google To Roll Back Encryption (tomsguide.com) · · Score: 3, Insightful

    Its crazy how lazy these people have become. Its way to much trouble for them to actually do their job. They just want to be able to cheat and skip to the end.

  12. Go on roll over on BlackBerry CEO 'Disturbed' By Apple's Hard Line On Encryption (theinquirer.net) · · Score: 1

    Show them you're belly. How anyone could believe that is beyond me. I bet if someone doxed his ass he would be outraged and scream about his privacy.

  13. Terms change. They tried to make the games impossible to copy. Called it copy protection until someone came up with a new term, DRM. Tada! Didn't work, never works.

    Didn't toilet tissue used to be call toilet paper.

    You can put two usb 1.1 ports on them mmc through gpio. I considered buying one the other day for a progect but went with a 600Mbs netgear instead.

    So they can't compete with cheaper tablets and are backing out of that market?

  16. yup went and looked in the crap copyright folder. on Piracy Phishing Scam Targets US ISPs and Subscribers (torrentfreak.com) · · Score: 1

    Got a few of them in there. When those losers pay us to be their process server i'll roll a truck.

  17. Smoking, chemical exposure and sunlight?

  18. Saying it was the internet is like saying it was over the telephone or a pen pal in the 70's and 80's. Of course it was over the internet but what part. I've seen some articles that say he had a grinder account and was a regular at that club. The clueless noobs they have in charge at the FBI just need fade out and blow away.

  19. Despite what you urban dwellers think bandwidth in rural areas is insufficient to the task without caps. That guys sounds like any other CEO who must have the facts dumbed down to their level. You as a luser might not think its fair or right but its a fact of supply and demand.

  20. Looks like somebody is no longer calling the shots on Yahoo Becomes First Company To Disclose FBI National Security Letters (tumblr.com) · · Score: 1

    Marissa Mayer must really be on her way out. She rolled over for them often enough.

  21. The burden is on the end user on US Congress Bans Members From Using Yahoo Mail (bbc.co.uk) · · Score: 2

    If they fall for some garbage email its their fault, not the provider. If they are so incompetent they fall for some scam it isn't yahoo or googles fault. I guess they will tell people to quit using AT&T or Verizon if they fall for some tech support phone scam.

  22. Re:Always browse torrent sites with Javascript off on The Pirate Bay Now Blocked In Chrome, Firefox, And Safari (torrentfreak.com) · · Score: 5, Informative

    They send tons of emails to us. We contact them to pay to be their process server and they hang up the phone. Piracy is when someone makes copies and sells them. So far no bottom dwelling copyright spammer has agreed to pay for us to deliver their letter. We have never received a single subpoena. They think we have to do it for free here in the land of the fee. Even if one finally did buck up and pay for us to deliver them they would still be handled as a civil suit. Feel free to shill away how wrong I am but I have real world knowledge about how cheap these bottom feeders are.

    I like John Ringo but the politics in his books are way to the right of me and I don't consider myself a leftist in everything. I just wish he would finish a series. The last centurion didn't appeal to me at all.
