  1. Re:Jerks on Impending CA Sales Tax Sparks Amazon Buying Frenzy · · Score: 1

    Ha, it really is impossible for an analogy to survive on Slashdot.

  2. Re:Jerks on Impending CA Sales Tax Sparks Amazon Buying Frenzy · · Score: 3, Funny

    Those projects would literally be better than the many projects that produce absolutely nothing, or less than nothing. My city spent a couple million dollars replacing perfectly good lampposts with quaint-looking ones that provide less light. I wish we got a dick statue instead.

    Civil disobedience has demonstrated it's effectiveness, while "getting involved," as far as our research has revealed, is slightly less powerful than a single queef. It may be a cop out to avoid just sales tax because it's easy, when a true activist would pay absolutely no taxes, but someone who obliviously or cynically works with the shit he finds ends up living in a house made of shit.

  4. Re:Well that cinches it for me on Obama and Romney Respond To ScienceDebate.org Questionnaire · · Score: 1

    The whole government isn't supposed to controlled by two Parties either, but it is, and the President is Master and Commander of one of them.

  5. Re:Not safe on California To License Self-Driving Cars · · Score: 1

    They've taught drones to land themselves on aircraft carriers, though, so maybe it will be tomorrow that airliners fly themselves? Of course these systems still cost millions, so we'll probably have to wait a while to buy a self-driving car.

  6. Re:Sweden in general on Gottfrid Svartholm Warg Arrested In Cambodia · · Score: 1

    Torture and indefinite sentences are actually pretty similar. In both cases they have about the same legal legitimacy as shooting people randomly. Anders Breivik, Knight Templar, Defender of the Faith, and Provisional High Judge and Executioner of the Kingdom of Norway has a nice ring to it. [Uh-oh, I think I just got on the potential bomb-maker watch-list]

  7. Re:Willful Frame Jobs on The Case Against DNA · · Score: 1

    The prosecution must present certain proof, while the defense just has to come up with reasonable doubt. Of course the government tilts the scales back in its favor, so DNA would probably never be admissible if prosecutors couldn't use it.

  8. Re:Spoilers on Scientists Find Gene That Predicts Happiness In Women · · Score: 2

    Apex fallacy as usual. As if the average man's life had any value in feudal China. Men don't even get to be spoils of war, they are just killed. For a woman to successfully give birth she has to receive some consideration. There are very real biological factors that prioritize females above males at all times.

  9. Re:I call bullshit... on US Doctors Back Circumcision · · Score: 1

    OK, then just slice off clitoral hoods, thousands of times per day, you cruel bastard. Be careful not to let the scalpel slip! In 50 years we'll come back to see if anything has been gained.

  10. Re:So, let's have a positive experience: on UK License Plate Cameras Have "Gaps In Coverage" · · Score: 1

    A thief who can bypass the key system can obviously swap plates. Or next time shove your friend in the trunk so he can't report anything.

  11. Re:no sleep on UK License Plate Cameras Have "Gaps In Coverage" · · Score: 1

    It's not much of a power since government officials control the registration system. Not only are they usually using vehicles from a motor pool, but they can use any or no plate if they please.

  12. Re:Is it too late to get UN sanctions on them? on Iran Universities To Ban Women From 77 Fields of Study · · Score: 0

    Are you questioning affirmative action? How dare you! Seriously, it seems that no one is getting jobs from these degrees anyway, so paring down the programs by any criterion makes sense.

  13. Re:sounds like a great plan on Iran Universities To Ban Women From 77 Fields of Study · · Score: 1

    Maybe the women graduates really aren't useful in heavy industry? It might even mean they are too smart to be willing to be ground up by the machine just because they have "a husband to support".

    Wait, Title IX is Islamic? I knew that Obama was a Muslim.

  15. Re:Thank God! on Iran Universities To Ban Women From 77 Fields of Study · · Score: 1

    Face it, it would make more sense to bring the men over and let the women stay in their gynocolleges. Iranian women had their chance to innovate in the field of Weapons of Mass Destruction, but the fact that Israel hasn't murdered one of them demonstrates that state resources are better spent elsewhere.

  16. Re:Turn Tables on Iran Universities To Ban Women From 77 Fields of Study · · Score: 1

    You're forgot about putting the male restrictions on women and giving the female rights to men.

  17. Re:Jobless on Iran Universities To Ban Women From 77 Fields of Study · · Score: 1

    What developed country doesn't have a glut of its own surplus college graduates?

    You see no problem with a society where hardly any men have college degrees? Well, whether you see it or not, it will be a terminally ill society.

    Hotel management, archaeology, nuclear physics, computer science, electrical engineering, industrial engineering and business management are vocational courses of study. There are only so many places at universities, so someone has to be excluded.

  20. Re:Dark ages on Iran Universities To Ban Women From 77 Fields of Study · · Score: 1

    Because having anything lower than lower than 70% female college enrollment is the "Dark Ages"...

    Did you read the article? It's not a religious thing, but a practical matter of insuring male representation in college to protect national economic and population growth. They could have implemented it better, but colleges only educating women is becoming a problem in the West too.

  22. Re:By starting families in their thirties, forties on Fathers Pass Along More Mutations As They Age · · Score: 1

    Seems more like the process of "maturation" is suspended as men become confirmed bachelors and women become confirmed sluts. Compare your grandparents who married at 20 and the current generation who are more likely to have autistic bastards than settle down and tell me who is more of an "adult".

    You've not only captured the paranoia of the anti-freedom nut, but his state of denial too. You, sir, are far too modest!

  24. Re:Paranoid much? on Ask Slashdot: Best VPN Service For Australia? · · Score: 1

    Since most Australians are not under investigation by the police, a VPN is hardly a "a necessity"

    That doesn't mean none or even few are. If Australia was shooting 1 out 4 people as a conservation measure to protect koalas, it would be of no concern for the individual since most people will be spared?

    Of course the "interests of the child" only matter when talking about the responsibility of the father; the mother is free to get rid of the kid before or after birth.
