  1. Re:Just root it on Samsung Galaxy S3 Stripped of Local Search · · Score: 1

    Small typo, s/iphone/phone/

  2. Prohibitively expensive? on Budget 27" IPS Displays From Korea Are For Real · · Score: 1

    How is that prohibitively expensive? Large TV screens have always been in that price range.

  3. Just root it on Samsung Galaxy S3 Stripped of Local Search · · Score: 1

    Just root your iphone and install stock android on it.

    Why would you want the crappy samsung/your-carrier version of android anyway?

  4. Re:Said it here first... on World of Warcraft: Mists of Pandaria Launches On September 25 · · Score: 1

    Why would a nerd call tech support? To troll them?

  5. Re:Implying those qualities are illegal on Analyzing Tweets To Identify Psychopaths · · Score: 1

    I suggest you look up what "implying" means.

  6. Re:porn party? on Australian Sex Party May Sue Google Over Ad Refusal · · Score: 1

    Any sentence containing "disgusting" cannot be considered a fact, it is is necessarily a subjective opinion.

    If you feel disgust, this is merely conditioning.

  7. Re:Not surprised on Kids Still Playing Pokemon Like It's 1999 · · Score: -1, Flamebait

    You let your kids be controlled by marketing? What a lousy parent.

  8. Implying those qualities are illegal on Analyzing Tweets To Identify Psychopaths · · Score: 2

    So basically, they're implying that if you're narcissist or machiavellianist, which are both valid of traits of human nature, you should be arrested?
    What a nice display of tolerance.

  9. Re:Grammar Standards Imposition on Australian Sex Party May Sue Google Over Ad Refusal · · Score: 1

    It's funny how Americans always find the use of correct grammar to be a chore.

    Do they not realize what the point of grammar and orthography is? It makes it easier to understand the sense of what they're saying, which in turn enables easier communication between people.

  10. Re:porn party? on Australian Sex Party May Sue Google Over Ad Refusal · · Score: 0

    Child porn is both illegal and highly despicable. It's a very abject thing because it violates children's development on many levels.

    Too bad you had to ruin your argument by treating a religion-biased judgemental opinion as fact.

  11. Re:Stop tethered jb news on iOS 6 Beta 3 Jailbroken Already · · Score: 1

    It's only about finding a security bug in existing apple programs and exploiting it. Once you've found a buffer overflow, it is known how to make use pf it. Then this is just used as a "gate" to install the actual jailbreak.

  12. Re:YASIR on Windows 8 Release Date: October 26th · · Score: 4, Insightful

    If only Ubuntu hadn't made so many mistakes in the past 4 versions, then probably many would have moved to it

  13. Re:How about gameplay? on The Decline of Fiction In Video Games · · Score: 1

    Actually, the japanese make games that are essentially visual novels, and those games are very good if you accept them for what they are.

  14. Re:Stop tethered jb news on iOS 6 Beta 3 Jailbroken Already · · Score: 2

    The above is not true. Making an untethered jailbreak from a tethered jailbreak is not a challenge, it's just annoying to do.

  15. Re:Still using Office 2003 on First Look: Microsoft Office 2013 · · Score: 4, Insightful

    You realize than most of those new features are "revamped user interface", except for 2007 which added a new file format?

  16. Re:How can they identify BitTorrent traffic? on BitTorrent Usage Increases In Europe, Following the Pirate Bay Blockade · · Score: 1

    Or rather I live in a different country than you do, where three strikes law has been implemented for a while

  17. Re:How can they identify BitTorrent traffic? on BitTorrent Usage Increases In Europe, Following the Pirate Bay Blockade · · Score: 1

    With all the media talking of the dangers of BitTorrent and how you can easily get fines or your internet connection suspended, I'm pretty sure people that do use BitTorrent were careful to take measures to ensure they wouldn't be caught.

  18. How can they identify BitTorrent traffic? on BitTorrent Usage Increases In Europe, Following the Pirate Bay Blockade · · Score: 1

    How can they identify BitTorrent traffic, since virtually all such traffic is encrypted and all the ISP can see is that it is SSL?

    Are some people still silly enough not to encrypt their transfers?

  19. In related news... on Linux Played a Vital Role In Discovery of Higgs Boson · · Score: 3, Funny

    Computers played a major role in the discovery of the Higgs boson.

    I hear electricity played a pretty important role, too.

  20. Re:Yeah on Thomas Jefferson: Scientist, Inventor, Gadgeteer · · Score: 1

    you stupid twat

    Please remain civil.

    You're implying that rape and slavery are right.

    No, I am implying there is no right and wrong, just arbitrary moral values being forced on social groups through conditioning.

    The vast majority of civilised people would disagree with you.

    And the majority is always right, of course.

    Human beings are not mindless ants condemned to repeat the same behaviour endlessly.

    From a certain point of view, accepting what we are as nature has created us is a more healthy attitude than repressing our desires in the name of an artificial higher moral standing forced on us through indoctrination. Now, if you'd rather indulge in self-deception to persuade yourself you're better than animals or that men that came before you, that's your own choice, but that doesn't mean it's the only acceptable way for men to live.

  21. Re:Yeah on Thomas Jefferson: Scientist, Inventor, Gadgeteer · · Score: 0

    You're implying that rape and slavery are wrong. What a naive view of the history of humanity.

  22. Don't all pirates have adblockers? on Google Proposes Fighting Piracy By Blocking Ad Money · · Score: 3, Insightful

    Since all pirates have adblockers, doesn't that make the proposal irrelevant?

  23. Re:Control on What's To Love About C? · · Score: 1

    Does this BS stand for bullshit or Bjarne Stroustrup?

  24. Re:Maybe because it compiles down to the metal... on What's To Love About C? · · Score: 1

    C doesn't compile to metal. VHDL does.

  25. Re:because on What's To Love About C? · · Score: 1

    To those that didn't understand the above comment, bear in mind that a string literal is of type char[N] in C, but const char[N] in C++.
