  1. YouTube on Last Day To Tell Google To Forget You · · Score: 1

    I don't want Google to track me but I do like my YouTube account. So I'm stuck a bit...

  2. Re:If this guy ever got in it would truly show ... on Santorum Calls Democrats 'Anti-Science' · · Score: 1

    But he wasn't voted in by the American people. He got in by shady means both times.

  3. Re:If this guy ever got in it would truly show ... on Santorum Calls Democrats 'Anti-Science' · · Score: 1

    I disagree. Palin couldn't utter a coherent sentence even if you threatened her with a shotgun. She would never become president if she would run for it. Santorum seems intelligent to a lot of people because he CAN make whole sentences. That's a big difference. So Santorum is a lot more scary than Palin.

  4. Re:Why not, it's just another work tool on Ask Slashdot: Companies That Force Employees To Join Social Networks? · · Score: 1

    Yep, that's what I thought. Besides, works and principles don't often go well together anyway.

  5. Re:Why not, it's just another work tool on Ask Slashdot: Companies That Force Employees To Join Social Networks? · · Score: 2

    I don't think my mother has ever licked my balls, even when I was a baby. But you never know, do you?

  6. Re:Change Universities on Universities Agree To Email Monitoring For Copyright Agency · · Score: 1

    Which of the two evils do you prefer?

  7. Re:Dont they all do this? on UK Plans More Spying On Internet Users Under 'Terrorism' Pretext · · Score: 5, Funny

    I've had this account since 1997 or so, waaaayyyy before the TSA even existed.

  8. Re:Dont they all do this? on UK Plans More Spying On Internet Users Under 'Terrorism' Pretext · · Score: 1

    Yes, the Netherlands also had plans in that direction. I don't know how much of them were implemented eventually though.

  9. Re:Change Universities on Universities Agree To Email Monitoring For Copyright Agency · · Score: 3, Informative

    More and more people at our university use gmail these days because it's more reliable than the email service the university provides.

  10. Re:Laptops are easy. on Stealing Laptops For Class Credit · · Score: 1

    I would have just dropped it on the spot and walked on :).

  11. Re:Why stop? on Stealing Laptops For Class Credit · · Score: 1

    So do my rabbits.

  12. Re:More useless junk, just like in Lion. on An Early Look At Mac OS X 10.8 · · Score: 1

    If you don't use them on you iPad/Phone then why do you want them there?

  13. Re:lion costs a whopping $30 on An Early Look At Mac OS X 10.8 · · Score: 1

    There are no MacBook Airs with a PowerPC.

  14. Re:We should boycott only now? on Sony Raises Price of Whitney Houston's Music 30 Minutes After Death · · Score: 1

    Yeah, they should have a website called The Pirate Bay.

  15. Worse than manslaughter on UK Law Enforcement Starts Seizing Music Blogs · · Score: 1

    Thanks to the likes of the RIAA downloading a song from the internet is now considered worse than manslaughter.

  16. Patience on Ask Slashdot: How To Go Paperless At Home? · · Score: 1

    All those papers will become obsolete one day. Just scan your new stuff and throw the obsolete stuff away. In 5 years time you will be paperless.

  17. Re:3/4 million words. tl;dr on Global Christianity and the Rise of the Cellphone · · Score: 2

    My story is exactly the same. It's such a relief to realize that you alone are responsible for your life, and that there is no beardy creep who tell you you can't go to heaven because you were a bit mean to this guy in class all those years ago! It's such a pity that my parents see it differntly though. They really think I will go to hell now, and they are very sad about it. And my mother constantly tries to turn me around again.

  18. Re:3/4 million words. tl;dr on Global Christianity and the Rise of the Cellphone · · Score: 1

    All true, but you know what the worst thing about christianity is? The way they tell you that God is good, and he only wants the best for you. Never in my life have I experienced anything like that. And I have watched a lot of nature movies lately, and the way God's creatures treat each other is also devoid of any love or pity. I am convinced there is no god and my life is pointless.

  19. Re:3/4 million words. tl;dr on Global Christianity and the Rise of the Cellphone · · Score: 1, Insightful

    The whole bible translaes to: treat other people the way you'd like them to treat you.

  20. Re:Bad apps crash. News at 11. on iOS Vs. Android: Which Has the Crashiest Apps? · · Score: 1

    That's because the newest phones have desirable features like a good screen and decent battery life.

  21. Re:Good on Job Seeking Hacker Gets 30 Months In Prison · · Score: 1

    I would. It's good to see a CTO who understands technology for a change.

  22. Re:Let me just clarify something here for you all. on Australia Likely To Get 18+ Game Rating · · Score: 2

    That â was meant to be a Euro sign. Thank you /., for still not supporting the Euro after TEN YEARS!

  23. Re:Let me just clarify something here for you all. on Australia Likely To Get 18+ Game Rating · · Score: 2

    I live in Holland and here it's the same. Usually games are much less $ in the US than they are â in my own country, so I buy them in the US. It usually takes less than a week to get them here, too.

  24. Re:There is no security by obscurity... on Lawyer Demands Pacemaker Vendor Supply Source Code · · Score: 1

    Bullshit. If you need one you only have one thing on your mind: staying alive. I know because I have one and I've been there. All this talk about checking the source code etc. is easy to say when you're healthy. And do you really think the people who work for pacemaker companies are completely incapable of doing anything right? If they were they would be out of business in no time.

  25. Re:Et tu, Netherlands part 2 on Dutch Court Forces ISPs To Block the Pirate Bay · · Score: 4, Insightful

    If we didn't have XS4ALL our internet would have been regulated much much more. I should get a subscription with them.
