  1. Re:Strange thing to celebrate... on Celebrating Yuri Gagarin's 1961 Flight Into Space · · Score: 2

    They're no longer your enemy. And Yuri did an amazing thing, the soviets performed an amazing feat. Yes, that should be celebrated, and the thousands who died in the cold war wouldn't think otherwise (I am equally able to spout unfounded statements about what soldiers would or would not do).

  2. Re:Food and Freeways on A Look At the World's Dwindling Food Supply · · Score: 1

    We can colonize space and fuck up other planets too.

    The other planets don't mind, honest! You can ask them if you like.

  3. Re:Unfortunately on Google Voice Teams Up With Sprint · · Score: 1

    And I'm sure your ad-blocking software is doing an excellent job of making that information useless to them.

  4. Corporate rape on Judge Lets Sony Access GeoHot's PayPal Account · · Score: 2

    The courts are really letting Sony utterly rape everything about GeoHot aren't they? Not commenting on whether or not he deserves it.

  5. Re:Brian Moriarty on Revisiting Ebert — Games Can Be Art, But Are They? · · Score: 1

    Starting up a Saloon in megaton sure is gonna be a step down for him.

  6. Re:Very Poor PC on Brown Dwarf Hits Record Low · · Score: 1

    I don't think we should be leaving out non-Africans and non-Americans here, not very PC at all.

  7. Re:Republic of Bob! on Politics: Libyan Rebels Announce Creation of a Republic · · Score: 1

    If it's in your possession, it's yours for as long as you can protect it.

  8. Re:Doh.. on Researchers Lift Fingerprints From Clothing · · Score: 2

    Agreed, mainly because I have none. on account of a battery acid accident.

  9. Re:It is just data! on Internet Kill Switch Back On the US Legislative Agenda · · Score: 1

    Breathing machines, heart regulators and whatever else you have planned won't stop functioning if the internet was shut off.

  10. Re:Best story ever. on Spam Text Prematurely Blows Up Suicide Bomber · · Score: 0

    I guess it was a happy new year after all.

  11. Re:First post! on Self-Control In Kids Predicts Future Success · · Score: 0

    If ever a first post should be modded funny...

  12. Re:One more - No more mutually assured destruction on Does the Moon Have Military Value? · · Score: 1

    Then major militaries of the world spend billions on space defence. Bettering space tech for all. I'm all for militarization of space.

  13. Hu who on Ballmer Says 90% of Chinese Users Pirate Software · · Score: 1

    Grub?

  14. Re:the arrogance of this on Play Pacman, Pinball, and Pong With a Paramecium · · Score: 1

    I find your conditions for respecting life intriguing. If we gain from it, then it's ok to treat them badly?

  15. Re:the arrogance of this on Play Pacman, Pinball, and Pong With a Paramecium · · Score: 3, Funny

    Correction, there is no apostrophe.

  16. Re:I already see the /. comments.. on Google Wins Injunction Against Agency Using Microsoft Cloud · · Score: 1

    The point of this is that the department did not consider all the available options. Google has made sure that they do so, and it's good for google if they choose anyone other than microsoft. The worst thing for google, is microsoft getting bigger.

  17. Re:Begging on Wikipedia Meets $16M Budget Goal · · Score: 1

    Worked so far hasn't it? However like they've said, costs are increasing every year, so in the coming years you may indeed be right.

  18. Re:Whats next? on 'No Refusal' DUI Checkpoints Coming To Florida? · · Score: 1

    What happened before if you refused a breath screening in florida?

  19. Distracted by laptops on Should Colleges Ban Classroom Laptop Use? · · Score: 1

    Of course any slashdotter would be distracted by a laptop, because you use computers so often. However your distractions are your own, you just need to deal with it and concentrate more. It's only when the distraction becomes obnoxious (forcibly impairing your ability to pay attention to the class) that something should be done about it. Laptops are an excellent learning tool in the classroom/lecture hall. I myself find it much faster to type notes than to write them. The only person thing that will be affected by off-task students are that students grades.

  20. Re:more on Living Earth Simulator Aims To Simulate Everything · · Score: 1

    It's obvious that they don't plan to simulate "everything", just everything that we have data about.

  21. Eftpos on Banknotes Go Electronic To Outwit Counterfeiters · · Score: 1

    I know my country has already gone electronic.

  22. Re:Why is OSS A Criteria? on Best Open Source Genealogy Software? · · Score: 0

    Was his question not just as legitimate as OP's? Does he not deserve the same respect you expect of him? Is this how everyone that questions open-source gets treated?

  23. Re:Oh wow. on UK Gov't Wants To Block Internet Porn By Default · · Score: 4, Informative

    Many pornographic sites are named in such a way that children could come across them by mistyping a website they were trying to go to.

  24. Nukes and not contained to the immediate area? on North Korea Says War With South Would Go Nuclear · · Score: 1

    That sounds like more of a threat.

    Correlation != Causation, but it does imply it.
