  1. bittorrent... on Anyone Can Play Big Brother With BitTorrent · · Score: 1

    Free month of netflix + dvd decrypt > bit torrent. Sure netflix knows where you are, but the French never will!

  2. Re:getting in the Zone on Best Seating Arrangement For a Team of Developers? · · Score: 1

    I prefer a couple of drinks to get in the "zone". It helps a lot on the late night work extravaganzas.

  6. Re:Only Box the Census Taker Will Check For Me is. on Will Your Answers To the Census Stay Private? · · Score: 1

    Damn, you shouldn't have your gun registered to the government already. All you're doing is ruining the surprise for the census taker.

  7. Re:You know what's really sad? on Will Your Answers To the Census Stay Private? · · Score: 1

    Yea, I better tear up my drivers license too. I don't want the government knowing I'm licensed to drive.

  10. Take out the middle man on Health Care Reform · · Score: 1

    If you have insurance and you don't use it, the money you spent is going to another consumer of insurance for that company who does use it. I don't see why people are against the idea of a public option for this. It's the same idea, but the "insurance company" has no profit motive. Insurance has nothing to do with capitalism because it is a service which produces no innovations. All they can do is change what they cover and how much it is.

  11. Re:Well, lets see on Health Care Reform · · Score: 1

    Amen! Want an education? Too bad your family can't afford grade school. Might as well start working at McDonalds and continue the cycle with your own kids.

  12. RE on The Problems With Video Game Voice Acting · · Score: 1

    I think this game is linear enough to get high quality voice acting.

  13. Re:It's a trick question on Are You a Blue-Collar Or White-Collar Developer? · · Score: 1

    I sit in a chair and compile for 80% of the day and I get a salary not a wage.

  14. Re:Keep It Simple on Vatican Debates Possibility of Alien Life · · Score: 1

    Can any of us imagine a Holy book being delivered two thousand years ago that babbled about relativity, the Higg"s Boson or multi dimensional universes?

    How about if they just said the planet revolves around the giant glowing thing in the sky?

  15. Re:Wait, what? on German Killers Sue Wikipedia To Remove Their Names · · Score: 1

    I can say "hmmm for a mere 20 years of my life I can take X amount of years of theirs, after giving them a gruesome and painful death"

    Well now that you mention it, it does sound like quite a bargain!

    sounds like quite the Magic card

  16. Mmm.. Cancer... on The Mass Production of Living Tissue · · Score: 1

    I had a friend who once thought of using cancer based tumors on cattle to make the most anti-PETA meat known to man.

  19. Re:shouldn't be legal on The Trap Set By the FBI For Half Life 2 Hacker · · Score: 2

    A better explanation would be police trying to sell heroin to a known heroin addict just to get an arrest. It's not really "tricking"
