  1. Re:Is a movie theater really a public place? on Woman Filming Sister's Birthday Party Gets Charged With Felony Movie Piracy · · Score: 2, Funny

    If the body is still warm is it really necrophilia?

  2. Re:The "copy" in copyright on Woman Filming Sister's Birthday Party Gets Charged With Felony Movie Piracy · · Score: 1

    I'm surprised that they locked someone up for two days, and are making them face up to three years. I think the defendant in this case should be looking to sue the MPAA over this... Maybe even a violation of due process? Sadly, IANAL...

    I know in Texas at least you can be held for something like 3 days without even being told a charge. They have to have something to put on the paperwork but you don't have to know what it is.

  3. Re:The only possible way this works is... on Offset Bad Code, With Bad Code Offsets · · Score: 1

    And no, I'm not going to RTFA. This is a horrible idea.

    I agree, RTFA is a horrible idea. So what is your thoughts on the bad code offsets?

  4. Re:Windows ME on Verizon Changes FiOS AUP, -1, Offtopic · · Score: 2, Funny

    AC, I'm really happy for ya and imma let you finish but Kayne is the best troll of all time. The best of all time.

  5. Re:Anyone ever read the instruction manuals? on Nintendo Upset Over Nokia Game Emulation Video · · Score: 5, Informative

    "Copying of any Nintendo game is illegal and is strictly prohibited by domestic and international intellectual property laws. "Back-up" or "archival" copies are not authorized and are not necessary to protect your software. Violators will be prosecuted." -Inside front cover of Smash Brothers: Brawl for wii.

    I see the same notice in Super Star Wars for the SNES, and Pokemon Yellow manuals. It is older than N64 but I don't have a NES manual handy to see if it older than this.

  6. Re:./ users be thankful! on Are Ad Servers Bogging Down the Web? · · Score: 1

    ./ ? Where is dot slash?

  7. Re:runescape is a scam on Man Arrested For RuneScape MMORPG Online Robbery · · Score: 1

    Why would you expect buying gold against the ToS to be a completely legitimate deal?

  8. Re:Pro-tip: Shoot them dead. on Air Cannon Ties Pirates In Knots · · Score: 1

    I think the mod saw the "shoot pirates" and thought "file sharers must die." I mean the if they had air cannons mandatory to be installed in your computer that would put you in a net on an illegal transfer you would be pissed too.

  9. Re:Don't see the point.... on Chrome OS, Present and Future · · Score: 1

    Until it actually comes out Chrome OS is just running the hype machine. It seems to be on par with the iPhone on page hits so there will be many stories hyping it up and some calling out that not having your own data and everything is bad. I wouldn't put any real merit on what is being said about it until the market actually answers whether it's good or not.

  10. Re:It matters to future employers on Do You Hate Being Called an "IT Guy?" · · Score: 1

    Why the hate on bukkake, is it too clean for your scat fetish?

  11. Re:Oblig SW quote. on STS-129 Ascent Video Highlights · · Score: 1

    I find the lack of rule 34 disturbing.

  12. Re:While we're talking about scams on Calling Video Professor a Scam · · Score: 1

    You better read that contract before you sign. Don't just lightly skim it either, read it and check the fine print.

  13. Re:tro7l on 3D Video Game Collaboration Used To Solve Crimes · · Score: -1, Offtopic

    I see your boat and raise you one Rick http://bit.ly/3bSd3B

  14. Re:Creative destruction on Google Attack On the Mobile Market Rumored · · Score: 1

    Parent is not a troll. Google is a for profit company like many others and right now they think before acting to keep their image, but what if that were to change?

  15. Re:It's closed so it's perfect on Security Firms Can't Protect iPhone From Threats · · Score: 1

    How is ANY commercial AV solution supposed to protect against the user being a total idiot?

    They could lock down the system until the user passes a basic security exam. Then force a retake of the exam on every reboot, standby, etc.

  16. Re:Google already licenses the AP feeds on Newspapers Face the Prisoner's Dilemma With Google · · Score: 1

    That first one sounds like the Old Media way, and like the RIAA way too.

  17. Re:Name change required, and all will be fine on Bing Cashback Can Cost You Money · · Score: 1

    What about "Chanandlar Bong"?

  18. Re:Unfortunately... on Anti-Smoking Vaccine Is Nearing the Market · · Score: 1

    I dunno, if they can link that smokers are going to cause higher costs in heathcare and big tobacco won't pay the difference they might be able to push that kind of thing in. It is a leap and not probable but all they need is some speech point pseudo-facts and it becomes plausible.

  19. Re:9mm? on The Jet Fighter Laser Cannon · · Score: 1

    Yes, yes I do.

  20. Re:9mm? on The Jet Fighter Laser Cannon · · Score: 1
    I wonder if I need a CHL to carry a non handgun out in the open. Its isn't concealed or a handgun so I wouldn't think a concealed handgun license applies in the situation.

    Anyway, to carry it in the open you use a belt or a strap on your back, its really easy to carry.

  21. Re:9mm? on The Jet Fighter Laser Cannon · · Score: 1

    I prefer a pistol grip on a shortened 12 gauge with buckshot myself.

  22. Re: we require more vespene gas on Making Old Games Look Good On Modern LCDs? · · Score: 1

    You must construct additional pylons.

  23. Re:Money rusts on Become Your Own Heir After Being Frozen · · Score: 1

    You could get coin collectors to buy your money.

  24. Re:we'll see on Obama Talks Internet Freedom, China Censors · · Score: 2, Funny

    As for the BBC, you trust a government owned and run network over free ones? Really? BBC is the NPR and PBS of Britain. Sorry, I think the "Bullshit" is coming from you.

    I like to think a public news organization from country A can give a fairly unbiased opinion on matters of country B.

  25. Re:Important forgotten steps on We Really Don't Know Jack About Maintenance · · Score: 1

    Really? I am (in college) and they are not very well liked right here either. I keep telling them a smart ass is still smarter than a normal ass.
