  1. Re:Well Played on Pirate Party Pillages Private Papers · · Score: 1

    Not checkmate just yet. What if the government says the document was forged by the Pirate Party?

  2. Sad on DarkPlaces Dev Forest Hale Corrects Nexuiz GPL Stance · · Score: 1, Insightful

    Money that could have been used to do proper marketing, QA, etc for the game is now wasted on reimplementing it from scratch.

    Sad panda :(

  3. Re:Are you kidding me? on Later School Start For Teenagers Brings Drop In Absenteeism · · Score: 2, Funny

    So, uphill both ways to your high school too, huh?

  4. Re:Too bad... on Mafia Boss Betrayed By Facebook · · Score: 1

    He's a mob boss, not a geek. He doesn't know nor care about Tor or proxies, he cares about getting bullets in places where they don't belong.

  5. Re:reverse plagiarism on How Students Use Wikipedia · · Score: 3, Informative

    Wikipedia keeps history. You can use that history to prove the edit was made after the essay was written.

    Plus, if you include parts, you'd probably list the essay as a source.

  6. Re:Piramid scheme anybody? on One Year Later, Zer01 Web Site Disappears · · Score: 1

    I don't think SS is a fitting abreviation for social security.

  7. Re:Hate on How Students Use Wikipedia · · Score: 2, Interesting

    No, but it illustrates how Students I know Use Wikipedia.

  8. Hate on How Students Use Wikipedia · · Score: 3, Insightful

    Lots of my fellow students copy sentences and whole paragraphs from Wikipedia verbatim, without citing sources. I hate that.

  9. Re:real hackers don't dread on What Aspects of Open Source Projects Do You Avoid? · · Score: 1

    I made an incredible AI once too. It said writing docs would take seven and a half million years, so I gave up.

  10. Meh on The Value of BASIC As a First Programming Language · · Score: 2, Interesting

    I started out with QBasic. It was absolutely horrific - the language itself and the code I wrote as well. QB convinced me to never, ever try VB.

    So yes, starting out with BASIC helped me tremendously :)

  11. Re:well on Web Copyright Crackdown On the Way · · Score: 1

    Isn't Google?

  12. Re:it's good at detecting OBVIOUS vandalism on Developing a Vandalism Detector For Wikipedia · · Score: 1

    Luckily, there is a lot more obvious vandalism than there is vandalism of the sneaky kind.

  13. Re:The problem is the edits going live... on Developing a Vandalism Detector For Wikipedia · · Score: 1

    And does it work?

  14. Re:some facts about nuclear energy. on US To Build Nuclear Power Plants · · Score: 1

    I think there are a lot of lobbyists that would happily tell you unicorn fart-based energy is the power source of the future.

    I dislike lobbyists.

  15. Re:Forced to include in EU? on Opera For iPhone To Test Apple's Resolve · · Score: 0, Troll

    You forgot Yoda Grease.

  16. Re:*always* connected? on Blizzard Previews Revamped Battle.net · · Score: 1

    What makes you think it isn't optional? I think you'll be able to play the game without Battle.net quite well.

  17. Behoove? on Push To End Online Gambling Ban Gains Steam · · Score: 1

    I'd like to come to this behooving party...

  18. It's official. on Fertilizer Dump Spoils Intel's Pure Water · · Score: 5, Funny

    Intel processors stink.

  19. Re:Playing games in prison on Prison Bans D&D For Mimicking Gang Structure · · Score: 0

    People who you'd like to spend time with? Those kind of people?

  20. Playing games in prison on Prison Bans D&D For Mimicking Gang Structure · · Score: 0, Interesting

    Why are inmates playing games anyway? They have lots of time - shouldn't they spend that time learning pottery/cooking/raising kids/social skills/programming so that they are fun people by the time they get out of jail?

  21. Re:Or, you do on Radiation Therapy Mistakes Cost Lives · · Score: 0

    You say these things sarcastically. I wouldn't.

    I'd rather have a doctor do my surgery and just accept when something goes wrong than *you* doing my surgery and me being able to 'hold you responsible'.

    Also, "Suck it up and die" doesn't really add to your point.

  22. Hmm. on NASA Mars Rover Opportunity Grinds "Cool" Rock · · Score: 0

    Cool.

  23. Europe? on YouTube To Allow Video Rentals · · Score: 1, Interesting

    TFA doesn't say anything about where the service will be availible. Will I and my fellow Dutchmen be able to use it?

  24. Re:Propaganda Alert! on Another Attack, On Law Firm Suing China · · Score: 0

    I for one do not believe war is the path to lasting peace.

  25. Re:OMG Ponies!!! on Rudolph the Cadmium-Nosed Reindeer · · Score: 0

    Tech parts don't regularly get ingested?
