  1. Re:Find project you like or use on Finding Open Source Projects Looking For Help? · · Score: 1, Troll

    no, they were "dumb asses" long before that.

  2. hmmm, bad use of swedish law on Swedish Pirate Party To Run Pirate Bay From Parliament · · Score: 1

    as much as I like getting the newest ${tvshow} I don't think this is a good way to go about it.

    I am sure most people here are aware that the pirate bay is facilitating copyright violations, sure you might call it something else, same thing as google does ble ble ble.

    This kind of misuse could seriously hurt the Swedish parliament...

  3. Re:The Porn Industry is never wrong... on Porn Industry Ready To Drop Flash · · Score: 1

    Windows 8 will have 3D capability (whenever that comes out) - I think that should spark the 3d market a bit.

    Bad thing about this is no longer will flashblock get rid of all the annoying blinking ads.

  5. Re:So... on North Korean Flash Games For Export · · Score: 1

    Sometimes changing things from within is the best way. I think it's fair to say more communication with the outside world will have a more positive effect than just ignoring them completely (or bombing them, but since they don't have oil, I don't see that happening).

  6. Nothing to see, move along on The Hurt Locker Producers Sue First 5,000 File-Sharers · · Score: 1

    People violate copyright, copyright owner wants justice, sues...

    breaking news ?

  7. Re:I swear.... on California's Santa Clara County Bans Happy Meal Toys · · Score: 1

    should children suffer more than necessary for having stupid parents...

    in the end it's we (the society) that suffers anyway.

    i welcome these rules (on behalf of children)

  8. Re:Eya... what? on Satellites Keep Aircraft Away From Volcanic Cloud · · Score: 1

    The last wish of the dying Icelandic financial system was to have it's ashes spread all over Europe.

    You're welcome.

  9. What about Crop circles ? on Professor Says UFO Studies Should Be Taught At Universities · · Score: 1

    from article

    The main criticism of alleged non-human creation of crop circles is that while evidence of these origins, besides eyewitness testimonies, is essentially absent, many are definitely known to be the work of human pranksters and others can be adequately explained as such

    Not sure how effective this really is, but it makes sense.

  11. How difficult on Google's New Approach For China Is To Serve From Hong Kong · · Score: 1

    how difficult is it to gain unrestricted internet access in china ? do you have to be a computer hacker or can anyone download some sort of onion thingy and just browse ?

  14. Re:And how useful would it really be? on Yale Law Student Wants Government To Have Everybody's DNA · · Score: 1

    But it'd make finding high-profile criminals who leave DNA samples behind a lot faster, wouldn't it?

    Yes, maybe they will leave your DNA sample behind.

  15. Re:I'm with Nokia on Nokia Claims Apple Does "Legal Alchemy" To Mask IP Theft · · Score: 0, Flamebait

    I've said it before and I'll say it again.

    On face value, Large american company vs. large Finnish company - I'll guess that the Finnish is probably in the right. Less greed in the society there.

    Come on, how could somebody called Olli-Pekka Kallasvuo be in the wrong

  16. Re:This just in! on Bill To Ban All Salt In Restaurant Cooking · · Score: 0

    Most americans eat too much salt! More at 11.

    here we have it.

  17. Long since proved why on Bill To Ban All Salt In Restaurant Cooking · · Score: 1

    Although this is overdoing it allot I think the state of many americans are long overdue for some nanny state control. When other parts of the world are dying of hunger, americans are dying of fat.

    But I'll agree this is just silly.

    And I wonder what this means.
    from the article: "each individual addition of salt"
    is that 1 salt molecule ?

  18. Re:Crowdsource the geocoding on Digitizing and Geocoding Old Maps? · · Score: 1

    Excellent idea, you would probably attract the attention of academics who have have knowledge of the area in question - historically - and can provide valuable input on modern locations and dimensions - since many of old maps vary in their scale internally.

  19. Re:Why Join? on Microsoft Giving Rival Browsers a Lift · · Score: 1

    Hehe, this is an ongoing dispute.
    I agree with you on many levels, the big problem now is our currency... I hope to get as much power out of the hands of Icelandic politicians as possible. I trust the bureaucrats in Brussels more than politicians.

    The best idea I've heard recently is for Sweden,Iceland,Norway,Denmark,Faroe Islands,Finland and Greenland to form a new coalition.

    Combined we would be one of the 10th largest economy in the world, coming before Russia even.

    Depends on where you are from, if within the EU, no problem. Else you'll have to find a job first.

    But wouldn't recommend Iceland now, having a bit of a crisis :)

    If you have money - you can get some very decent property for little money though.
