  1. Blame game on Court Rules Autism Not Caused By Childhood Vaccine · · Score: 1

    The people who are claiming that government mandated vaccinations resulted in their child's autism are typically the same people who would claim that the government is responsible for their child being afflicted with a disease because the vaccination wasn't mandated.

  2. Re:Most EU countries have no cap on Charter Cable Capping Usage Nationwide This Month · · Score: 1

    Ice caps?

  3. Re:The end of free wi-fi? on Charter Cable Capping Usage Nationwide This Month · · Score: 1

    Most people have wised up at this point and have locked down their routers.

  4. I know whos fault this is on Is the Yellowstone Supervolcano About To Blow? · · Score: 1

    Two words, President Bush.

  5. Unacceptable on Time Warner Recommends Internet For Some Shows · · Score: 1, Interesting

    I live in NYC, where time warner has already implemented throttles on torrent traffic (which they deny). Then I find out about this last night via a scrolling message late at night, a day before the channels potentially go away. Time Warner already charges exorbitant fees (not to say that others don't), and their solution? To watch the shows I'm missing on cable via the internet, many of which are either not free or not legally available? I thought the fucking cable was so I could watch it directly on my tv, rather than wasting time downloading it and burning it onto a cd/dvd so I can watch it in the comfort of my living room on my tv. Time Warner's quirks have been an inconvenience up until this point. But if things fall through tonight, I will switching my internet service and probably drop cable all together.

  6. Doesn't address fundamental problems on Toshiba To Launch First 512GB Solid State Drive · · Score: 0

    These articles on SSDs seem to pop up once or twice a week, with news on how much more space they provide, but there haven't been any articles recently addressing fundamental problems for long term practical use. Until these problems are hashed out, I wouldn't consider getting a device that utilizes such a drive, whether it be 1 GB or 1 TB.

  7. It's a shame on Court Nixes National Security Letter Gag Provision · · Score: 0

    That ultimately the supreme court will prove to be the impediment to justice in this matter.

  8. That's Scott on Canadian Groups Call For Massive Net Regulation · · Score: 0

    He's a dick.

  9. Does this mean? on Is There a Cyberwar, and Is the US Losing It? · · Score: 0

    There will be a cyber-pearl harbor movie, with a robotic Ben Affleck. I guess that is a little redundant.

  10. Vaccines save lives on What the Papers Don't Say About Vaccines · · Score: 0

    And they save many more lives than those lost due to adverse reactions to vaccines. The risks that a vaccine pose to an individual are far outweighed by the benefits gained by society. One need only look at the 20th century and compare that against any time before that.

  11. Sign me up! on Mad Scientist Brings Back Dead With "Deanimation" · · Score: 2, Funny

    and... "Thaw me out when robot wives are cheap and effective. PS - please alter my pants as fashion dictates."

  12. Operator: on Look What's Cooking At Microsoft Labs · · Score: 1

    "The fingers you have used to dial are too fat. To obtain a special dialing wand, please mash the keypad with your palm now."

  13. All I care about is... on FCC Considering Free Internet For USA · · Score: 1

    ...will they throttle my torrent usage?
