  3. Re:Should of done that on Maine Senator Wants Independent Study of TSA's Body Scanners · · Score: 1

    It isn't an ability you want, because it doesn't seem to work. I can't say how educated I am with out seeming to toot my own horn but I am willing to post the link to my goodreads.com account.

    So as you can see I never read at all. In fact I don't even own a single book!

    Isn't this something our fabulous leaders should of demanded before spending a crap load of money and deploying them all around the nation?

    I hope no on tells PETA that NASA is irradiating a guinea pig with a probe.

    At least he isn't stepping down to a lobbying position for the media industry. I half expected that when I read the title. Though I guess he still can...

  7. Why bother with software on America's Future Is In Software, Not Hardware · · Score: 1

    Why bother with software, we can all become lawyers, for the RIAA MPAA or Apple, think of it a nation of lawyers suing people over copy right infringement, or patent violations!

    I know you're trying to joke but it honestly wouldn't surprise me that the entertainment industry would want to go after people who posted spoilers.

    pretty sure linking to pirated content on your site can get you 'blocked' under SOPA.

  10. Re:Hold up wait what? on Jailbreaking Could Soon Become Illegal Again · · Score: 1

    I did vote against them, but then when they were in office they didn't do what they said they would. All their, talk and elections promises were just that. Promises and no one could hold them to them. Empty words from men in empty suits owned by someone else.

  11. Why would twitter on Twitter Can Now Block Tweets In Specific Countries · · Score: 3, Interesting

    Why would twitter even, work to create such a functionality? Is this in reaction to SOPA, were they afraid they'd end up getting shut down in the USA if it passed and they don't want to be caught with their pants down?

    Even so if this was the case why advertise it? How long before some draconian government demands that twitter use this to censor it's site 'for' its citizens.

  12. Hold up wait what? on Jailbreaking Could Soon Become Illegal Again · · Score: 1

    Why would something that is legal now suddenly become illegal after three years? Can anyone explain why, something should ever suddenly become legal after being ruled legal for a 'duration of three years'? Is it so the government makes sure they have something to do?

  13. Re:Perhaps a less sensitive subject? on Object Lesson in Non-Transparency At Energy.gov · · Score: 1

    ya looking into anything related where the government stores nuclear materials even nuclear waste seems like asking for, at least some red tape.

    It isn't so much the American government as the corporations, who don't really have a nationality.

  15. Re:Oh noes the evil on Top Google Executives Approved Illegal Drug Ads · · Score: 5, Informative

    The one my father uses doesn't sell pain killers, they sell actual medication. For things like arthritis, asthma and other such maladies. Though I imagine there is some truth to what you say but I'd imagine most people who want pain killers, just find a doctor who is willing to write them the prescription. They aren't terrible hard to find.

  16. Oh noes the evil on Top Google Executives Approved Illegal Drug Ads · · Score: 5, Interesting

    Ya because Americans being able to get decently priced drugs, is such a crime. My father buys drugs from a company like the ones they mention in the ads. He can't afford drugs here in the USA even though the ones he gets from Canada are exactly the same, yet cost one tenth the price.

  19. Re:Don't Be Evil on Facebook, Twitter, and Myspace To Google: Don't Be Evil · · Score: 3, Interesting

    Ya I was thinking the same thing. I read about some sort of deal between twitter and Google to use tweets in their search results but it fell through. So why is twitter bitching about it now? Google is running a business folks and they've done nothing wrong, by deciding to allow posts from their Google plus into the results.

  20. No science to it on Banks Using Mobile Phone Usage To Gauge Credit Risk · · Score: 4, Interesting

    They just use this as a mean of hiding the fact that banks really have no idea if you'll be good for the money they are loaning you. They are just trying to get the contact numbers of your friends and work associates so they can harass them when you don't pay up.

    by like minded politicians you mean politicians who like money yes? I could see how that could be a problem.

  22. Re:Theif soultions on New Cable Designed To Deter Copper Thieves · · Score: 1

    actually i guess steel would make the cable much heavier and more of a bitch to work with right? So perhaps it could work. More than likely though they just find other sources of copper to steal from or just steal more of it in more sophisticated operations.

    Steal more copper cable. Less monetary damage in goods loss, more damage paying people to replace stolen cable.
