  1. Re:What a Hero on Pentagon Seeking Out Wikileaks Founder Julian Assange · · Score: 1

    Obviously because he threatens the good reputation of the US. USA! USA! USA!

  2. Re:HTTPS -- default on Australian Gov't Seeks To Record Citizens' Web Histories · · Score: 1

    So Australia suddenly can impersonate every SSL websites in the world. I'm sure the other countries would be okay with that. They are all best buddies, right?

  3. Re:HTTPS -- default on Australian Gov't Seeks To Record Citizens' Web Histories · · Score: 2, Insightful

    Then the government will just man-in-the-middle for all these "low default security" websites that don't show errors and record the browsing just as with plain HTTP.

  4. Re:Okay... on Australian Gov't Seeks To Record Citizens' Web Histories · · Score: 3, Informative

    Implying that people up to no good don't already encrypt their communications.

  5. Can we cover people up with thermopiles? on Rubber Boots Charge Your Phone · · Score: 1

    That sounds like a good way to solve energy problems and overweightness.

  6. Re:Expectation of privacy on Software Describes Surveillance Footage In AI-Generated Text · · Score: 1

    In 50 years? How about enormous computing power to find what you are doing based on the very faint sounds, vibration and lights that tiny sensors hidden on your lawn collect?

  7. Re:Games on Google's Chrome OS To Launch In Fall · · Score: 1

    > Will it run my games?
    N

    > Will it run them reliably, effecivly and as table as Windows 7?
    Only if you install it on a net-table. (Patent that concept!)

    > will it have support, patching, ease of use and compatibility with 3d party aspects? (printers for example)
    Probably not. It's an OS for dummies we are talking about, so patching it will probably require going into dos command line and burning several DVD each time a bug is found.

  8. Re:Sounds familiar on Apple Blindsides More AppStore Developers · · Score: 1

    Give an example? I can't think of a discontinued function in SL. Objects I have dating back from 2004 still work, so one would think the situation is not as bad as your post depicts it to be.

  9. Re:My problem with this... on Pakistan Lifts Ban After Facebook Deletes Offending Page · · Score: 2, Interesting

    Vegetarians and christians probably can't ban Facebook from a whole country. That's the difference between them and Pakistan.

  10. Re:and why, exactly? on Japan Plans Moon Base Built By Robots For Robots · · Score: 2, Informative

    African countries actually build rockets and plan to put satelittes into space. As can be seen here: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=NR97o_FuX-c

  11. How about replying? on Tetris Clones Pulled From Android Market · · Score: 5, Insightful

    Doen't the DMCA allow you to just send a "No I don't infringue on the copyright" back to Google and have your app not taken down?

  12. Re:Stupidity beyond limits on Stem Cell Patent Halts Hospital's Collection · · Score: 1

    You are onto something... childrens... we could use the children to crush the patent system. People just need to say: OMG! THINK OF THE CHILDREN! LET HOSPITALS RESEARCH STUFF! And the patent system might be steamrolled in order to let researcher find new cures for the children.

  13. Re:what's wrong with imaginary friends? on Pakistan Court Orders Facebook Ban Over Mohammed Images · · Score: 1

    Because talking with an imaginary friend about something can help you examine different views on the subject than the one you have, and can help you reach conclusions you wouldn't have reached alone.

  14. Re:For a price of course on iPhone 4 Beta Shows AT&T Tethering · · Score: 1

    What's a "girl" ?

  15. Re:Cute application, but why? on Marine Mammals Used To Fight Terrorism · · Score: 1

    Ultimately, that means looking toward everybody. Maybe the UK is actually on the right track to fight terrorism with it's attempted implementation of 1984.

  16. Re:Cute application, but why? on Marine Mammals Used To Fight Terrorism · · Score: 1

    That's why some senator tried to pass a law that removes american citizenship from terrorists.

  17. Independence on Texas Schools Board Rewriting US History · · Score: 1

    Texas would be far better off independant. Kick them out of the US and let them soar to new heights as they can free all the potential of their free entreprise god driven nation.

  18. Re:Aye on Games Workshop Sues Warhammer Online Fansite · · Score: 1

    Although it would be a tragedy because of the lost lives of the lawyers (who are still a bit human) ; it would still be awesome to see that in the news.

  19. Re:"Regional President"? on Russian Officials To Investigate Regional President's Alien Abduction Claims · · Score: 1

    Maybe after millions of billions of miles they were terminally bored and wanted a good game of chess.

  20. Have we learnt nothing? on "Wet" Asteroids Could Supply Space Gas Stations · · Score: 3, Funny

    After the mexican gulf and it's oil, let's polute space with giant water spills! Who the hell had that good idea at Nasa?

  21. Re:Only adult diapers? on Japanese Company Turns Diapers Into Energy Source · · Score: 1

    They should broaden their operations to include infants and toddlers too ; in the long term this would single-handedly solve humanity's energy needs.

  22. Damn pirates on "Digital Universe" Enters the Zettabyte Era · · Score: 1

    75% of 1.2ZB = 1E14 megabytes = 150 GigaCDs. At arround 10 tracks per CD costing each 22000USD, that makes it 34 petadollars in lost sales for the music industry !

  23. Re:Google and facebook on Black Market May Develop For IPv4 Addresses · · Score: 1

    That would be more like "Wew, no more of those annoying bandwith hungry websites ; we can cancel upgrades to our network."

  24. What next? on Sony Sued Over PS3 "Other OS" Removal · · Score: 1

    Sure it's easy to laugh at "all of the five people impacted by the removal of Alternate OS". But if Sony wins this lawsuit, what would keep them from removing more features? Obviously they would never remove core features like "playing video games" (although it would be barelly noticable with the number of game available on PS3). But could Blu ray movies playing be removed? For example, to get some of their consumers into some hypothetical pay per view service they'd offer?

  25. Re:Our foolish desire for Humanoid Robots on Virginia Tech Students Build CHARLI, a Human-Sized Robot · · Score: 1

    It's a requirement. To be exact it should look like C3PO with boobs. ...and cat ears.
