    And the Brooklyn Bridge is still for sale.

  2. Re:Is it truly so hard? on Facebook Private Info Increasingly Used In Court · · Score: 1

    ...why should the court believe any of your testimony?

    You got it... That would include anything they see on Facebook. "Not guilty"

  3. Re:Vector not relevent on Attacks Targeting Classified Ad Sites Surge · · Score: 1

    Exactly. Spam isn't down at all. It's just shifted over to something else. Something more akin to direct attacks on the infrastructure, as opposed to social engineering and user interaction that spam email requires.

  4. Internet Kill Switch on Internet Kill Switch Back On the US Legislative Agenda · · Score: 0

    le Net Fatale

  5. This is news? on China Blocks 'Egypt' On Twitter-Like Site · · Score: -1, Troll

    Are we going to hear about every time China farts?

    The House of Saud is that dictator that the west already stands tall defending. And what wells up from the bottom (or is provoked from the outside) might surprise all of of us. However, I highly doubt they have the same issues as the others, at least not in the same proportions. The only thing they have to fear are alternative fuels

  7. Re:For how long on Egypt Cuts the Net, Net Fights Back · · Score: 1

    Saudi's next in line. I want to hear the "coalition" defend that dictator..

  8. As you heard President Obama say (last night)... on White House Wants 1M Electric Cars By 2015 · · Score: 1

    this Administration is forging a new path forward by making sure America doesn't just lead in the 21st Century, but dominates in the 21st Century,

    We need to CUT spending...and drastically!!

    *sheesh!* Slashdot tirade, ripped straight from the headlines... Oh noes! We're all gonna die!

    Alright fine.. wanna save money? Bring the troops home now, AND kill the oil subsidies... but there's nothing wrong with investment in public infrastructure. Equitable access is a feature of civilized society, not a bug.

  10. Re:Jail the jerk on Facebook Spammer Fined $360 Million · · Score: 1

    Yes, well, just as long as you consider Facebook as a willing accomplice in something that got a little out of control. Surely no harm was intended :/

    Wrong plaintiff? Wrong defendant!

  12. Re:Too soon? on Challenger 25 Years Later · · Score: 1

    The lesson still hasn't been learned. We put glory seekers into leadership position. Disaster is the result. And the blame inevitably comes full circle.

  13. Re:Too soon? on Challenger 25 Years Later · · Score: 4, Funny

    He wouldn't be helping any if he were to stop reading the data and scream "Oh, the humanity!"

    No, it would be more like, "Looks like I picked the wrong time to quit taking tranquilizers.... How 'bout another cup of coffee Johnnie"

    "No thanks"

  14. Re:More Trouble Than They Are Worth on White House Wants 1M Electric Cars By 2015 · · Score: 1

    Roads are paid for by taxed gas. The more gas you use, the more you pay for road improvements...

    Then just shift the billing over to vehicle registration fees. Keep it simple. Pay by the weight.

    Batteries can be recycled.

    No reduction is living standards or personal freedoms are necessary. There's plenty for everybody.

  15. Re:Sure It's Doable, Just Shift Subsidies on White House Wants 1M Electric Cars By 2015 · · Score: 1

    Yep, shifting the money would produce probably over 10 million electrics by then. However, unless there's a groundswell of demand from the bottom, I wouldn't expect the government to jeopardize its cozy relationships with the industry.

    What happens to all those arms deals? This could send our economy into a tailspin.

  19. It's pretty simple on Sony Wins Restraining Order Against Geohot · · Score: 1

    Even something so cosmetically "robust" as the 1st amendment is a toothless tiger when confronted by copyright, or any talk of real resistance, for that matter.

    Yeah, I read the rest. It's all bullshit. His "tangling" was nothing more than media dramatics. It is much more accurate to say he is entangled with the industry.

    Oh puleeeze! Pull the other one.

    So the balance of power the records will supply has to be equalized somehow.

    We just have to throw enough chaff into the system to drown it in crap

    It's very difficult to celebrate from the grave

    Too bad a call for action is illegal, otherwise I would say the time for talk is over.
