  1. Re:Simple resolution on New Russian Weapon Hides In Shipping Container · · Score: 1

    Isn't that a bit like the jews in germany? Parked in camps because they were enemies of the fatherland. But no problem, it's only bad when the others do it.

  2. Flintstones on Paper Manufacturer Launches "Print More" Campaign · · Score: 1

    "Domtar, a major North American stone tablet manufacturer, has launched an advertising campaign to encourage people to carve more documents in stone. Domtar CEO John Williams opposes campaigns by other companies asking employees to be responsible with what they carve. 'Young people really are not carvers. When was the last time your children demanded a tablet?' Mr. Williams said ... 'We've got to do some work about having them believe and feel that carving isn't a sort of environmental negative.' The industry expects that, absent this campaign, tablet demand will decrease by 4% annually. Williams's comments did not go down well in some environmental circles."

  5. Re:Wrong RTFA - there is inhumane treatment of wor on Photos of Chinese Sweatshop Used By Microsoft · · Score: 1

    That sucks, and I guess it was different when she decided to be a doctor. She's basically trapped. But students who haven't started yet have the choice. They may end up becoming security instead, or a cashier or whatever. I foreseen a shortage of coctors in the UK in the future...

  6. Re:Horribly misleading on New Speed Cameras Catch You From Space · · Score: 1

    "It also referred to the system's "low cost" and ease of installation. " You take the camera, put in someplace where it'll see the plates. Then forget it. Simple! It probably phones home with its coordinates to the central system. You want to move it someplace else later? No need to fill complex forms or tickets and have a guy update the coordinates in the central DB. You take it, put it someplace else, forget it. Simple!

  7. Re:What's the point? on NASA Unveils Sweeping New Programs For Next 5 Years · · Score: 1

    We fucked up earth because we have little experience. We'll get it right eventually.

  8. Re:That Article's Title Should Be... on Solaris No Longer Free As In Beer · · Score: 1

    > and it interfaces with PHP quite nicely Yes, so we can get rid of PHP at the same time. Bonus.

  11. Not so cunning on Obama's Twitter Account "Hacked" · · Score: 1

    FTA: "The man in question had no training in computers," said Mr. Coquillat. "He was just very cunning." Not very cunning since he got himself into trouble that could send him into jail.

  12. Re:Too small a sample size on First Anti-Cancer Nanoparticle Trial On Humans a Success · · Score: 1

    I wouldn't want to be one of the guys in phase III given placebos to cure his cancer !

  13. Re:Can't anyone use the English language correctly on Tracking Pedophiles By Their Typing Habits · · Score: 2, Interesting

    I agree. I'd also add that probably most do not "want" but just fantasize about it. "Want" convey the idea you are planning to do so imo.

  14. Re:The harm is done on De Icaza Says Microsoft Has Shot .NET Ecosystem In Foot · · Score: 3, Funny

    So that mean Gnome will disapear? I fail to see the problem here.

  16. Re:What unstable countries ? on China To Connect Its High-Speed Rail To Europe · · Score: 1

    Just throw more manpower at it and do two lines. One to india then middle east, one through Russia. Easy.

  17. Re:Two can play your game on US Intelligence Planned To Destroy WikiLeaks · · Score: 1

    Yes.

  18. Re:Secretive Space Plane? on Air Force Spaceplane Readying For Launch · · Score: 1

    The plane is secretive, but itself is not a secret. I guess it doesn't have a facebook page and tries to avoid paparazzi

  19. Re:well no on Valve Confirms Mac Versions of Steam, Valve Games · · Score: 1

    You only need to debug the libraries the game use ; presumably those are common to a lot of Valve games (Source...)

  20. Re:Meditations on First Philosophy on Key Letter By Descartes Found After 170 Years · · Score: 1

    "I think therefore I am" sounds a bit bold an affirmation. It's more like "I think I think, therefore I think I think I think" IMHO.

  21. Re:It gets worse. They've been harrassing students on Federal Judge Orders Schools To Stop Laptop Spying · · Score: 1

    > Who doesn't understand... Morons on a power trip? It also reply to the question "Who would spy on people then admit it?"

    There are still people thanks to the ever growing community of furries with giant penises.

  23. Sid Meier... on Civilization V Announced For This Fall · · Score: 1

    Please don't let Civ V be to Civ what Sid Meier Railroads was to Railroad Tycoon. I bought Railroads... player a few hours, not believing how dumbed down it was. Then I bought Tycoon and played for days.

  24. Re:Outmaneuvering censorship on French Net Censorship Plan Moves Forward · · Score: 1

    But our left wing here in france is against that filtering. So that means only right-wing socialists want filtering ? What about left-wing capitalists? Would they be for or against filtering? And capitalo-communists, what about them guys?

  25. Next step: game code on server on Ubisoft's Constant Net Connection DRM Confirmed · · Score: 1

    Once every game need a connection to the mothership to run, they could as well (and probably WILL) put some of the game code on the server. Not critical code that renders the frame, but what about the menus, options, all that slow stuff that wouldn't overload their servers. Then once they do that, the pirated version needs to fill gapping holes in the game with rewriten code ; a bit like reverse engineering a MMORPG server. Good luck with releasing pirated versions before the next version of the game is out.
