  1. Re:There's got to be a better way... on Finland To Legalize Use of Unsecured Wi-Fi · · Score: 2, Insightful

    BS, we don't need more and more draconian laws that are almost impossible to enforce and make lawbreakers out of ordinary harmless Lusers.

    Get tough on crime! just like the 17 year old girl who got life for having a pound of pot in her possession! We'll teach her! after 70 years in the slammer getting raped, beaten and finally forgotten she can be safely loosed upon society, her debt paid and in the final months of her life she can reflect how truly sorry she is for her transgression and how wise those laws are that prevented her from having a family or ever having even a little comfort or happiness.

    USA, USA, USA!

  2. If it wasn't for Limewire.. on RIAA Says LimeWire Owes $1.5 Trillion · · Score: 1

    Brittney Spears would have been able to buy enough drugs to kill herself instead of making us nauseous by plotzing around the stage in a bikini so we can see her fishbelly white flabby ass.

  3. OK, I gotta die so some punk, yahoo.. on Anti-Speed Camera Activist Buys Police Department's Web Domain · · Score: 1

    Doesn't get bored obeying the speed limit?

    Sorry sonny but I've had enough close calls trying to stay out of the way of empty-headed, irresponsible kids slaloming through traffic as if they owned the road! If my family was killed by someone like you, the best thing you could hope for would be life in prison and for you to lose everything in a civil action. I won't say here what I'd be tempted to do.

  4. Re:I read the article... on BIOS Will Be Dead In Three Years · · Score: 1

    I remember setting up some machines with "winbios" (if I remember correctly) it used a mouse and was graphical, this was in the mid to late 90's, it would not allow the dual processor motherboard it came with to see the SCSI RAID card we were using for the build. Tyan sent us replacement chips with a non-graphical BIOS that worked like a charm.

    Duh! Where the hell else is anything made?

    This is why there are no jobs here.

    Sorry, we're already there.
    About recording police murder, assault and mayhem, I say record surreptitiously and post anonymously to off shore (non US) websites!

    Mommeee, I wanna be a cyborg!

  8. Re:According to the latest article in "Duh" Magazi on Why Are Indian Kids So Good At Spelling? · · Score: -1, Troll

    It's a bitch when the average American believes that the world was created be God 6,000 years ago, and that ancient astronauts built the pyramids, etc.

  9. Fascist Orwellian shit! on Bill Gives Feds "Emergency" Powers To Secure Civilian Nets · · Score: 1

    Joe Lieberman should be sentenced to life under house arrest for crimes against the constitution and people of the United States!
    It particularly bugs me that a Jew (who knows all about the Nazi terror) would be so cavalier about personal civil rights and the role of due process.

  10. Re:Why the Tech industry sucks. on iPad Bait and Switch — No More Unlimited Data Plan · · Score: 1

    When I bought my Apple IIe (my first and last Apple product) I was promised a CGA expansion card, but alas that never happened, I bought an Epson Apex80 to replace it.

    Why does everybody think that really primitive people couldn't write science fiction?
    Maybe that drawing is the caveman equivalent of "Land of the lost".

  12. Re:Not right on House Votes To Expand National DNA Arrest Database · · Score: 1

    Wasn't it GWB who said that the constitution is "just a piece of paper"?

    The only time anybody pays attention to it is when doing so serves their own purposes.

    You can get my DNA from the saliva I spit in your face!

  13. Re:When will netbooks... on Asus Budget Ultraportable Notebook Sold Sans OS · · Score: 1

    Most people might re-compile some QT5.0 avi's to mpg2 (I do and it works fine) and compose documents, etc, all of which is just great on my "nettop". Once again you are confusing a task-specific workstation with an every day PC.

    Kids!

  14. Re:When will netbooks... on Asus Budget Ultraportable Notebook Sold Sans OS · · Score: 1

    Huh? what? are you kidding? my everyday PC is an ASUS B202 just as it shipped, it's hanging on the back of a Samsung 19" monitor and it does everything admirably, maybe if you stop playing everquest or warcraft or trying to impress the other cranky little boogers in your CS class you'll realize that you don't need a liquid cooled 6core 64bit processor with 16g of RAM and a terabyte of onboard HDD space!

    This is how it is now in the land of the free, why do you think that we have the worlds largest prison system (larger by a HUGE amount)?

    Gotta keep those big prison industries happy and convince all the gun toting, flag waving, tough-on-crime,tea-partying electorate that them's is bad people!

  19. Re:Fascinating! on Record-Breaking Galaxy Cluster Found · · Score: 1

    The finite speed of light 186,282.3mps is only a constant in our universe and since we are talking about the expansion of the universe it's (our universe) expanding boundaries lie outside it's influence and may have taken place before the formation of space/time itself.

    "mid-level, non-technical management", non-technical, non-interested, non-present and counting the days to retirement!

    Use too many polysyllabic words in a complicated sentence and their eyes glaze over and they begin to snore.

    As I see it, you pay $500.00 for a pretty, shiny toy with a closed OS designed for a telephone as opposed to a versatile open platform with more everything (RAM, Storage, USB, Etc) for $300.00.

    But, you get to prance around with your expensive toy and hold you're nose high in the air cause you've got an Apple!
