  1. A better headline on Spain's Link Tax Taxes Journalist's Patience · · Score: 1

    Spain's Spanish Spaniards Tax Taxed Taxpayers (journalists)

  2. Re:Actually read the book! on Ridley Scott to Produce Philip K Dick's The Man In the High Castle · · Score: 2

    The other interesting part of the book is that the i ching is used extensively as a source of knowledge for the main characters, but it gives answers based on the actual reality (the allies won the war) and not the reality that the book lays out before you where the germans/japanese won.

  3. Re:Actually read the book! on Ridley Scott to Produce Philip K Dick's The Man In the High Castle · · Score: 1

    Yes, and I'm curious how they'll be able to adapt that book within a book to a series put to video. That was my favorite element to the story.

  4. Re: Astronomy, and general poor night-time resu on Laser Eye Surgery, Revisited 10 Years Later · · Score: 1

    They apply special drops to your eyes that temporarily dilate them so they can look into your eye easier. You could also eat some magic mushrooms before you go to the eye doctor, but then who knows what you'd end up reading off that chart during your eye exam.

  5. Re:Duck and cover on Russia Bans US Use of Its Rocket Engines For Military Launches · · Score: 1

    Would that be the line about the Jolly Jumbuck, or when he references his Tucker Bag that will be our death song?

  6. Tragic story, equally tragic reporting on Man Shot To Death For Texting During Movie · · Score: 1

    This news article spent all its fluff text berating cell phone use in theaters and labeling it as a rising problem, while completely skipping over the insane individual who KILLED someone.

  7. Re:Four years? on Particle Physicists Confirm Arrow of Time Using B Meson Measurements · · Score: 1

    Actually, it took 5 years, because that's all we've got. Yes, 5 years. My brain hurts a lot.

  8. Re:Dropping the bass? MORE animal abuse? on Activists' Drone Shot Out of the Sky For Fourth Time · · Score: 1

    Nah, he's just throwing them back.

  9. All the more reason to visit! on In Mississippi: 15-Year Jail Sentence For Selling Pirated Movies and Music · · Score: 1

    I was really thinking I'd visit Mississippi soon and see the sights, but now I'm really excited to check out the state knowing they're fighting the good fight and focusing on the REAL issues going on in their state. Hell, I think I may move there now.. maybe raise a family.

  10. The sadest part of this is.. on Lawmakers Caught Again By File-Sharing Software · · Score: 5, Insightful

    Why should our government even have ethics documents that are confidential?
