  1. Re:GPS-guided? on Troops In Afghanistan Supplied By Robot Helicopter · · Score: 1

    More likely it's a styrofoam model made by some kids

  2. Re:Amarok 1.4.6 For life on Music Player Amarok 2.5 Released · · Score: 4, Funny

    Yeah but... now you can buy things on the internets. This will put Linux on the desktop for sure...

  3. Re:lesson learned, don't upload stolen movies on X-Men Origins Pirate Draws a 1-Year Sentence · · Score: 1

    What does that have to do with the price of rice? You should be modded off topic... and trolling

  4. Re:Ferrari without a paint job on X-Men Origins Pirate Draws a 1-Year Sentence · · Score: 1

    Maybe a Pinto without a paint job.

    Wrong movie. That would be Fantastic 4 with the human torch.

  5. Re:Drives are cheap, data is expensive. on Hard Drive Makers Slash Warranties · · Score: 1

    But the magnets are pretty cool...

  6. Re:In other news on Hard Drive Makers Slash Warranties · · Score: 1

    You and I aren't the consumer that matters. HP, Dell, Apple and Acer are. And computer sales remain.. how to say.. robust.

  7. Re:Not to mention totally legal on SOPA Creator In TV/Film/Music Industry's Pocket · · Score: 1

    Apparently so is my spelling...

  8. Re:Not to mention totally legal on SOPA Creator In TV/Film/Music Industry's Pocket · · Score: 1

    Why not? It permeates virtually all other parts of society... Politics is corrupt by defenition

  9. Re:This is ridiculous on The Painkiller That Saves Money But Costs Lives · · Score: 2

    Amazing how people always ignore R&D when talking about drug costs.

    That's because compared to marketing and lobbying, heavy discounts for major hospitals and the insurance companies which are not passed on to the rest of us, R&D comprise a relatively minor cost of doing business.

  10. Re:It even has its own tribute band on The Painkiller That Saves Money But Costs Lives · · Score: 1

    I'll go with the more generic Chemical Brothers

  11. Re:The Republican Face of Future Medecine... on The Painkiller That Saves Money But Costs Lives · · Score: 1

    ...the poor will suffer and die in a greater and growing proportion to the rest of us.

    "Fuck the poor!"

  12. Re:maybe he should use vi. on The Condescending UI · · Score: 1

    Ctrl

  13. Re:Only OpenDNS can tamper with your results now! on OpenDNS Releases DNS Encryption Tool · · Score: 1

    And they keep VERY good records for anybody who asks.. nicely.. in triplicate..

  14. Re:Ok. analyze THIS. on How Tech Vendors Help Governments Spy On Their Citizens · · Score: 1

    You didn't read about Anna Nicole Smith's take down of the Bahamian government? Obviously she was working for the CIA..

    But seriously, the weather... I was talking about the people who 'leaked' the documents.

  15. Re:Ha! on Bluetooth Keyboards With a 10-Year Charge Promised · · Score: 1

    Keyboard battery life (months)... Infinity

    Excellent.. beyond the end of the universe.. but the keyboard will turn to dust shortly before then.

  16. Re:First (I think) on Feds Seize Korean Movie Download Portals · · Score: 3, Insightful

    ...a Democrat, their natural enemy...

    Yeah, in the same way that Curly was Moe's 'natural enemy.

  17. Re:It's more like... on Have Walled Gardens Killed the Personal Computer? · · Score: 0

    I believe 'gated communities' (also known as: "condomínio fechado" or "barrios privados") is still available.. And when Apple becomes president of the US (it is almost 35 years old), it will just be refereed to as 'nation/state'.

  18. Re:I just want something to get to and from the tr on After 6 Years, Aptera Motors Is No More · · Score: 1

    I prefer a '59 Lincoln. 6200 pounds of pure American glory

  19. Re:Snow. on After 6 Years, Aptera Motors Is No More · · Score: 1

    The major problem with these 'concept' cars, not just this one, is that they are only drivable in places that never have winter.

    Mod 'Informative'

  20. Re:Capitalism on Fed Gave Banks Eye-Popping Emergency Loans, Without Telling Congress · · Score: 0

    But not the illusion, and that's all that counts. The entire system is faith based.

  21. Re:Capitalism on Fed Gave Banks Eye-Popping Emergency Loans, Without Telling Congress · · Score: 0

    The people that vote for them have become so corrupt they don't even want to see the problem. Might interfere with their 'upward mobility'.

  22. Re:Ok. analyze THIS. on How Tech Vendors Help Governments Spy On Their Citizens · · Score: 5, Interesting

    ...Assange and satisfying his ego

    All that is mass media's (apparently successful) attempt to divert attention away from the leaks and to focus more on the "crimes" of the leakers.

  23. Re:"Arab Spring" on Twitter Buys Moxie Marlinspike's Crypto Startup · · Score: 1

    ...social change in the Middle East...

    What social change? The cops are still shooting at people. And, as the old cliche goes, the 'new boss is the same as the old boss'. Individuals come and go. The system stands forever.

  24. Re:Well on Police Encrypt Radios To Tune Out Public · · Score: 1

    Guess they'll have to do it anonymously then

  25. Well on Police Encrypt Radios To Tune Out Public · · Score: 1

    Looks like we have a new challenge... First person to break the code wins an... eraser(?)
