  1. Please hire Elon Musk as CEO on Ballmer To Retire · · Score: 1

    I know I might catch some flack for this but I would like to see what he could do with that kind of capital.

  2. Read the fine print.. on US, Germany To Enter No-Spying Agreement · · Score: 2

    Here's how I think this agreement will turn out.
    1) If violated the president agree's to have his feet tickled profusely.
    2) To avoid being caught the US allows UK to spy on Germany using our equipment which they hand over the info to us.
    3) US asks the UK not to Spy on the US for this benefit
    4) US asks Germany to Spy on UK for the US for our agreement not to spy on German

  3. I think they are just... on United States Begins Flying Stealth Bombers Over South Korea · · Score: 1

    I think they are just trying to posture before they make their demands known.
    1) Season pass to Disney.
    2) Candle lit dinner with Denis Rodman, Mickey Mouse, and Goofy.
    3) Orgy with aforementioned individuals.
    If their demands are met they will give up the nuclear arsenal.

  4. SKYNET of course on Who Should Manage the Nuclear Weapons Complex, Civilians Or Military? · · Score: 1

    Seriously this is slashdot.. wasn't this already polled about 100 times about who is gonna screw the pooch and end the world.
    Military, Polititians, SKYNET, or Programming Snafu.

  5. Re:Does it or does it not on Researchers Find Megaupload Shutdown Hurt Box Office Revenues · · Score: 1

    Box office != to Movies sold.
    Simple fact of invalid comparison.
    Although I think pirates are most likely going to be movie fans that enjoy watching more movies then they can actually afford.
    So even though the article is flawed I don't necessary disagree with it... just about how they formulate their conclusion.

  6. Doctor Who XXX on The New Series of Doctor Who: Fleeing From Format? · · Score: 0

    I'm thinking a HBO Special series like game of thrones and sparticus where doctor who battles for humanity and aliens while banging hotties and space sluts.
    Basically taking Dr. Who and Americanizing it. Thats not just a SONIC SCREWDRIVER in your pocket....

  7. Re:Ha, you threaten teacher jobs and see what happ on Are Teachers Headed For Obsolescence? · · Score: 3, Interesting

    Here is what I anticipate something along these lines in the next 10+ years.

    1) Students are required to learn via computer.
    2) Reduce the number of Course hours by 2 and extend Art, Music, Sports, Ect time by two hours.
    3) Students who progress test poorly via computer are forced to have extended after school tutoring with 4 kids per teacher for two hours extra of school per day of your grades slip below a B or you TEST anything below a C.
    4) The hours that students report to tutoring is in blocks. Teacher has 8 blocks allowing for 32 dumb students.
    5) Kids that get an F require 2 Hours of EXTRA tutoring 1 student per teacher.

    Kids are motivated to stay in C+ range because they don't want to be required stay after school later and miss out on sports or whatever they do at home.
    Teachers are still on staff for tutoring basis but not as many and hopefully only the ones that work well with students who have learning issues.
    If a student wishes to OPT for Tutoring they can do so.

    when your downloading copyrighted items using your phone in the middle of a police station with a camera on you while you verbally admit to the owner of the copyrighted content while showing them exactly what you are downloading and then verify what you were downloading was actually not authorized for you to download...
    If the phone dont fit you must aquit.

  12. Re:A little uncomfortable on RIAA Chief Whines That SOPA Opponents Were "Unfair" · · Score: 1

    Yep just you. Trolling / Flamewars are the new news.
    Most of the hey look at what this dumbass said articles on /. are of course bias.
    Otherwise they would just have a link which isn't that much fun.

  13. I cant wait thousands of 12 year olds in jail.. on Jailbreaking Could Soon Become Illegal Again · · Score: 5, Funny

    We need to create a new arm of the government now to fight this menace to society.

  15. Can't it support both? on Paying Hacker Extortion · · Score: 4, Funny

    It seem's like it is making everyone happy these days.
    News agencies are creaming their panties.
    Companies get to sweep shit under the rug while their competitors crash and burn. (I bet you Microsoft was heart broken to hear the PSN got hacked.)
    Hackers make some money and who knows might eventually get laid.
    The Government gets to restrict our freedom's and buy bigger shiny new toys and has even more reasons to keep printing money until it costs more to print it than its worth.

    I get the pleasure of changing my password every twenty minutes to something like LKJGDSKLeiojgtqpltjwe4jt]90iejaasdfHippofucknuggets

  16. Virtual Currency at its greatest on Bitcoin Price Crashes · · Score: 1

    I think that maybe its time to hit the drawing board again.
    Great idea but I think they need like 1 time key generators or some other level of security layered on transactions.

  17. Isn't this along the same lines as... on LulzSec Phone-Bombs FBI and Blizzard · · Score: 2

    Isn't this along the same line as causing a traffic jam at a busy intersect just to say hay you should have a police officer watching every traffic corner?
    Maybe I'm missing the point but mostly they just seem to cause petty disturbances. Are they trying to make it so companies have to weigh every new venture they role out with the thought of risk vs reward?
    I always wanted to be a person who achieves something not someone that goes over to the next guys sand castle and kicks it down and says damn should have made that sucker hurricane proof. Better luck next time.

    I'm just surprised these guys don't naturally just turn on each other over time.

  18. Double D Certified on Ask Slashdot: Best Certifications To Get? · · Score: 3, Funny

    My girlfriend is Double D cert' and I just pay her to sit at home.

  19. Re:what can you get with bit coins? on Mint It Yourself With a Browser-Based Bitcoin Miner · · Score: 1

    that isn't bitcoins fault that is cuz they keep printing US $'s.
    Pretty soon the dollar bill will be like the penny. Cost more to mint it than it is worth.

  20. Access Control Group? on Facebook's Broad Patent On Digital Media Tagging · · Score: 2

    Isn't this the same concept as being a member of a group and gaining a variety of access permissions?

    How is this not the same just changing the naming semantics of the general idea?
    I mean can i just patent any idea and substitute a previously defined terms with my own made up one?

  21. Cost of security but what did we gain? on The Cost of US Security · · Score: 2

    So out of the 145million people that filed taxes it cost us 21k each over 15 years.
    http://www.irs.gov/pub/irs-soi/10taxstatscard.pdf

    But think of all the innovation;
    Remote controlled drones with missiles.
    Armored K9's
    Quiet Helicopters
    Body Scans (would be nice if they could detect cancer or a tumor at least while i walk though)
    um cannot really think of anything else we came up with for 3 trillion.

    I think we got hosed on this deal.

  22. So child porn people will just use 3g/4g internet on New Bill Would Require US ISPs To Retain User Info · · Score: 3, Interesting

    So child porn people will have to use 3g/4g/wifi based inet to avoid being nabbed easily.
    Leaving just the average joe left to get screwed by the long arm of the law.

  23. Wouldn't it be more effective to buy the US Gov? on Why Google Should Buy the Music Industry · · Score: 4, Insightful

    I think that the music industry is already grossly overvalued and would not be a wise investment.
    The US Government on the other hand that would be a valuable investment if they could just find a way to buy them off in bulk.
    Lets do the math.
    1 Prez, 1 VP, Chief of Staff, Secretary of state ect, Cabinet lets round that to 65 for ease
    100 Senators
    435 House of Rep
    As of January 2009, a total of 3,200 Fed Judges
    So we have about 4,000 monkeys to buy. Per year
    Average salary is probably around 180k. So we will offer them 10x the amount per year or 1.8 Million per worker.
    For only 7.2 Billion per year I think I could effectively own the entire federal government.
    I think google can swing that.

  24. Re:Double standard? on Leave a Message, Go To Jail · · Score: 2

    It was probably more about the idea of being able to arrest the guy on a trumped up charge than to actually get a conviction.
    That is the great thing about the law enforcement agencies. You can screw people without actually having to convict them of any wrong doing.
    There is not much you can do to fight, stop, or prevent it aside from thoroughly screening who gets to be a police officer.
    The system was actually intended to work this way.

  25. Re:I don't get it at all on Terror Arrest Used As Fodder To Fund Real ID Act · · Score: 1

    I think they need real id's soon because they are going to bankrupt the social security system and have to have something in place when it collapses.
