    Well, there is no honor among thieves.

  2. Re:Better ban this! on Scientists Record Signal of Distant Black Hole Consuming Star · · Score: 1

    "Mayor Michael Bloomberg, when asked to comment, suggested that consuming whole stars is a major cause of black hole obesity and that he is introducing legislation to limit black hole consumption to dwarf stars and interstellar gasses. Local law enforcement expressed skepticism that the ban could enforced, since the black holes are "a bajillion light years out of our jurisdiction" but Bloomberg was adamant that "if we can save even one black hole from a life of obesity and health issues then we have an obligation to act no matter what the cost".

    Dwarf stars are like a drug to black holes. He is warming up to the drug challenge which he will take on next.

    After the dinosaur gets a good taste of what is 2012 A.D. compared to 10^8 B.C. he wishes only one thing: to be extinct again.

    They're not even shills. It's the same crap as the people shouting "First post!". Being a pretend shill is just the new go-to troll in Apple/Microsoft stories because it invokes a bigger reaction.

  12. Re:Thinking like a criminal on The Increasing Role of Predictive Analysis In Police Work · · Score: 1

    If you want to catch a criminal, you need to think like a criminal

    To be successful, you, as a criminal, must know your victim's vulnerability - either they are alone, weak, or they are far away from others' ear shot .... and ... this is important - the place you commit your crime must be familiar to you - or it wouldn't be so easy for you to get away - and in cases involving murder - you, as a criminal, must also know where to dump/bury/hide the body before you commit the murder

    Many times crimes were solved because of the sheer sloppiness of the criminals

    As for throwing dice on the map - I'm afraid it would not be easy - unless of course, the new location happens to be a familiar spot for the criminal

    Sorry Fred, you have to knock over the coffee kitty at police headquarters.
