  1. Re:And this is how perverted our system has gotten on Supreme Court To Decide Whether Rap Lyric Threats Are Free Speech · · Score: 1

    Freedom of speech doesn't mean speech without consequences. See: slander. How is that different? If the first amendment is absolute, then we should let people lie and destroy other's reputation at will.

  2. Mega must be successful on Kim Dotcom Faces Jail At Bail Hearing · · Score: 1

    Mega must be more successful than we think. The masters are not pleased.

  3. Re:Boarding issues on Japanese Maglev Train Hits 500kph · · Score: 1

    Without passenger trains, road traffic to and from Paris would grind to an halt, literally, frozen solid. I suppose people would commute walking to their 50 km away jobs, making train not necessary, not at all.

  4. Pointless on A Garbage Truck That Would Make Elon Musk Proud · · Score: 0

    Sure, it might be fine to collect garbage in the neighboorhood, but what happens when you want to take the wife and kids to vacations a few states away ?

  5. Awesome on How Tech Is Transforming Teaching In a South African Township · · Score: 1

    Ubiquitous good education will do the world a lot of good.

  6. Tesla... on State of Iowa Tells Tesla To Cancel Its Scheduled Test Drives · · Score: 3, Funny

    "so good it's illegal !"

  7. Re:Sounds great on IBM Solar Concentrator Can Produce12kW/day, Clean Water, and AC · · Score: 1

    Heard a few milenia ago: "Sails sounds great, but how do they push the boat when there's no wind ? I'm surprised the smart people in Constantinople don't realise that. *plonk*"

  8. Re:Please fix the kW/day in the title on IBM Solar Concentrator Can Produce12kW/day, Clean Water, and AC · · Score: 1

    Stop nitpicking, we aren't on a technology website or something.

  9. Re:Systemd integration counted as a positive thing on Debian Switching Back To GNOME As the Default Desktop · · Score: 1

    To finally lift linux to the level of a real OS like Windows, with reboots after upgrade and the equivalent of bluescreen when everything-and-the-kitchen-sink-d crashes.

  10. Not grounded for long on Drone-Based Businesses: Growing In Canada, Grounded In the US · · Score: 1

    As soon as Amazon, Google and other *big businesses* have their drone business models ready, politicians left and right will be boug* err, lobyied and commercial drones will happen.

  11. Re:Thankfully we don't have Bill Gates lobbying on AT&T Says 10Mbps Is Too Fast For "Broadband," 4Mbps Is Enough · · Score: 1

    At this rate *North Korean* will have faster internet soon :o

  12. Re:Okay, it's time. on Invasion of Ukraine Continues As Russia Begins Nuclear Weapons Sabre Rattling · · Score: 1

    With you at the wheel we would all be living in a nuclear wasteland already. You have to read the propaganda from both side, there are no "good guys" side.

  13. Re:My money is on SpaceX on Battle of the Heavy Lift Rockets · · Score: 1

    Then Space-X will fail to consistently deliver payload, people will simply stop using their services, and you'll be happy. Relax. They are doomed.

  14. Re:Wow on Australian Consumer Watchdog Takes Valve To Court · · Score: 1

    I'm in the exact same situation and hope that Australia shaft Steam deep and hard. I haven't spent a single euro on Steam since, but still got whatever game I was interested in legally and downloadable on Steam. Granted it was mostly indie games, and those always offer Steam code because Steam is admitedly freaking good, despite it's abysmal policies.

  15. Re:Google, though? on Google Testing Drone Delivery System: 'Project Wing' · · Score: 1

    Well, is there a best way to know your consuming habits than to sell and deliver everything ?

  16. Re:Say what you will but this is cool on Google Testing Drone Delivery System: 'Project Wing' · · Score: 1

    Rejoice. Soon everything will be assembled by robot and we'll _all_ live in abject poverty.

  17. The best solution on Air Force Requests Info For Replacement Atlas 5 Engine · · Score: 3, Funny

    Is obviously a cluster of at least five different nozzles, all built in different facillities spread over several representatives' districts.

  18. I thought this only happened in Florida on South Carolina Student Arrested For "Killing Pet Dinosaur" · · Score: 4, Insightful

    And as for the kid and his pet dinosaur killing, here's an even more disturbing news: so kids as young as maybe 8 are shooting at each other in pretend cowboy-indian or thief-policeman "games". Time to build more prisons for youngsters.

  19. Re:Here's What Bugs Me on Experimental Drug Stops Ebola-like Infection · · Score: 2

    It can be easilly put to the test. Among the next missionaries would catch ebola, 50% should refuse the ZMap treatment and get to be given an unique chance to show the world that god and prayer are what heal them. Surelly a true believer will be overjoyed by the idea, lots of people would be convinced and convert and be saved by our lord Jesus Christ.

  20. liquid assets on Ecuador To Forge Ahead With State-Backed Digital Currency · · Score: 1

    How long before we find that those liquid assets where in fact vapor?

  21. Re:Malaysian flight 370 on Malaysian Passenger Plane Reportedly Shot Down Over Ukraine · · Score: 1

  22. Re:Mexico on SpaceX Wins FAA Permission To Build a Spaceport In Texas · · Score: 1

    Why would the cartels disaprove anyway? They could even abduct a few engineers to develop their own rocket delivery of drugs into the USA.

  23. Re:NASA Need New Motive on NASA Approves Production of Most Powerful Rocket Ever · · Score: 1

    Not sure it'd work ; too many people starts denying climate change... It would be easier if Martian threatened to sell their oil for Euro or Yuan instead of dollars. The USA military would be there in a couple years top, inventing whatever fable that satisfies the public to justify the war.

  24. Re:It's accomplices all the way down! on Austrian Tor Exit Node Operator Found Guilty As an Accomplice · · Score: 2

    Most traffic on Tor is legal. Or are chineses and iranians inherently evil people ?
