  1. Re:Their "investigation" on Explosion At Foxconn Factory Kills 2, Injures 16 · · Score: 1

    Foxxcom was rapidly dismantled to make way for glorious new tractor factory.

  2. Re:Broken society on Explosion At Foxconn Factory Kills 2, Injures 16 · · Score: 1

    In the ideal world we would all live like kings if desired. Being sentient beings, we can create that world, but there is little will to do so because of the irrational fear of losing what we have in the quest..

  3. Re:Broken society on Explosion At Foxconn Factory Kills 2, Injures 16 · · Score: 2

    Any form of economic prosperity in one area is balanced by a social or economic cost in another.

    ?? Really? You believe in zero-sum? You can't have prosperity and freedom on all sides through cooperation and fair trade? I think we can.. if we want it...

  4. Re:Joss Whedon was right on Twitter Sued By British Soccer Player · · Score: 1

    Well, there's somebody in New York who's doing just that in a seemingly unrelated story... Lots of secrecy everywhere

  5. Re:Quandary on Twitter Sued By British Soccer Player · · Score: 1

    Is this why Google won't reveal the name of the chamber maid? Must be a big secret, because I can't find anything on it, either her name, or anything about an injunction

  6. Re:Sounds like someone 'famous' is out of cash on Twitter Sued By British Soccer Player · · Score: 1

    IT might be bad in the UK, but Google is somehow keeping 'le nom de la femme de chambre' off its pages... Somebody has a lot more power than some soccer player or even UK law.. I think that's a much bigger story. Will Slashdot pick up on it?

  7. Re:CTB's real name is Ryan Gigs on Twitter Sued By British Soccer Player · · Score: 1

    Let's play name that maid... The Chinese firewall is still keeping her name off the Google pages... How do you like that for power?

  8. Boycotts and sanctions are for pussies on Phishing Site Discovered On Sony Thailand Servers · · Score: 1

    The only way to deal with a mad dog is to kill it, without hesitation... Eat it raw, Sony!

  9. Re:How can it be tied to local time zone? on Ask Slashdot: What To Do When the Rapture Comes? · · Score: 2

    ...I can run a few feet to the east, and God will grant me 60 more minutes on Earth?

    Go West young man...

  11. Re:This overlooks various marketing opportunities on Bug Bounties: Outbidding the Black Hats · · Score: 1

    And besides, the police will just as likely steal your honest dollar as 'drug proceeds'. Good luck getting it back.. Honesty, and even basic humanity has become a quaint old anachronism. Even the illusion (with the US gone down the tubes over the last tens years) has seriously deteriorated. It just doesn't pay. Crime and general savagery, however, is quite the opposite story

  12. Advertisers on Verizon Customers: Say So Long To Unlimited Data · · Score: 1

    Does your phone download all the ads from mass media sites like your regular browser?

    If so, for what it's worth, you all should raise holy hell about it... or use only the wifi, if the phone has it... then watch them raise their rates to make up for lack of use.. like the water companies are doing due to 'excessive conservation'..

  13. Re:Four More Years on Congress Makes Deal To Renew Patriot Act For 4 Years · · Score: 2

    ...the President sends the national guard in to shoot protesters...

    The President doesn't need to as long as the governor is on the same team. Don't they teach American history in the schools anymore?

  14. Re:Democrats back unconstitutional bill... on RIAA-Backed Warrantless Search Bill In California · · Score: 2

    Had enough Change yet?

    Change? What change? Everything looks exactly the same as it always has. Just because the left hand blinker has been flashing all this time, the car is still just moseying along straight ahead, obstructing traffic...

  15. Re:Religion. on Apple Causes Religious Reaction In Brains of Fans · · Score: 1

    I know it's a big, mean world out there, what with all the floods, wars, scandals, etc, but I think you ought to lighten up a bit

    Peace!

    Even a bald man has the hair follicles.. They're just resting..

    I've always considered an atheist (maybe mistakenly) as one who states, 'There is no god'

    And the agnostic says, 'I just know know', or 'Let's see the long form'

    Oh dear! My comments are causing a religious reaction in the brains (yes, in medical terms, I have to admit they have one) of authoritarian mods

    That's not a troll. If one does not have a 'real' religion, they will create one. Religion, government, corporation, any kind of mysticism that exploits ignorance, all the same thing to bolster authority.. There's nothing particularly unusual about that.. SOP.. SNAFU

  21. Useless statistic on 8 of China's Top 9 Govt. Officials Are Engineers · · Score: 1

    I want to know how many Chinese prefer Folgers Coffee Crystals to their regular coffee. I mean, if I'm going to open a factory there, I need some numbers I can use.

  23. more 'efficiency' absurdities on An IP Address For Every Light Bulb · · Score: 1

    This has become an OCD of the worst kind, and only makes the entire infrastructure even more brittle than it already is. And each connection to the net is just another attack vector, and probably subject to some secret executive order mandating that microphones and cameras be installed.

  25. Re:A silly question on New Alureon Rootkit Takes Malware To New Level · · Score: 1

    Then the only thing left is a live CD or DVD in a read only drive.. And that's ok also, even if a bit slow.. There's usually enough RAM to load the entire system in there if you need the speed, but that opens up a small vulnerability right there... At least there's a choice.
