  1. Re:Uhh... on Women Arrested For Refusing TSA Search of Children · · Score: 1

    So why isn't anyone worried about their sons being "groped"?

    I said "daughter" because I don't have a son. I would feel the exact same way. Dumbass.

    Meh, Apple calls them "leaks"... to each his own. I call it a desperate PR move that will fail to bring any real excitement to an idea that's, as mentioned above, already grown old very fast (nowhere near fast enough, though). Move along, nothing to see here!

    Tell congress that they can turn it around and use it as a spy satellite. Then attach it to the defense budget.

    Say goodbye to advanced scientific research and hello illiterate hicks and endless wars.

    The irony is killing me. Your present, endless wars were started by an illiterate hick but I'm sure you know that already. Seriously, what fucking difference do you see between Bush and Obama? How long will you americans take to realize both of your parties are exactly the same thing?

    Even the TSA workers aren't too happy about the possibility of getting cancer from the scanners.

    Alright, now how do they feel about groping kids? This is important.

    She wasn't arrested for a refusing a patdown. She was arrested for being belligerent.

    You know, if someone (uniformed or not) insisted on touching my daughter I'd be belligerent too, at the minimum. An arrest would probably be necessary as well. You can keep your false sense of security and freedom America, I'm staying the fuck out.

    What's the point? I mean, if I click on a link that shows me some gross picture, I don't get all upset about it; I just close the tab and move on with life. Do you derive enjoyment from wasting a few seconds of my time every now and then? It just doesn't seem very significant.

    I was about to ask the same question. I got on the internet in the mid-90's, there ain't much that's gonna "shock" me nowadays. What's the point?

    Ubuntu does not maintains Long Term releases that long. Apple is notorious for dropping support for previous OS X versions (um, talk to the people trapped on OS X 10.4 due to the intel switch). Sorry buddy, your facts are wrong.

    FTFA: "To overcome this limitation, Furber - along with Andrew Brown, from the University of Southampton - suggests an innovative system architecture that takes its cues from nature. "The approach taken towards this goal is to develop a massively-parallel computer architecture based on Multi-Processor System-on-Chip technology capable of modelling a billion spiking neurons in biological real time, with biologically realistic levels of connectivity between the neurons," Furber explains in a white paper outlining the project."

    My thoughts exactly. The OS shouldn't have to realize if a USB stick is legit and belongs there... people should realize you don't pick up a stick in a parking lot and put it in your computer, which may or may not hold for-your-eyes only information. It's like telling an adult they shouldn't pick up a syringe in a park and stick it in their arm.
