    The small fry is trying to play a big boy's game, and he picked the wrong target.

  2. Re:42.195 km (26.2 miles) on Explosions at the Boston Marathon · · Score: 2

    Running a marathon has got many risks. It requires training, discipline, thinking.

    And Kevlar...

  3. Re:tell me again on Explosions at the Boston Marathon · · Score: 1

    The priority of those stories should have been reversed.

    They probably were... in Iraq...

    Do they vote Republican?

  5. Re:iterative dev, no docs, took us to the moon... on How NASA Brought the F-1 Rocket Engine Back To Life · · Score: 1

    It was engineering, motivated by that old tactic of, "We're under attack!", during the cold war.

    There is no 'final shape'. It is an undulating blob. Eventually the mass of cables becomes so great that a black hole forms, collapsing the entire building in on itself.

    Well! Welcome to 'You bet your life'. Say the secret woid, and win a hundred dollars. Good to see you in genpop.

    And if you need a job. There's always the devil's work, lots of it, always a few potholes on that road to hell that need patching up.

  8. His new office on DARPA Cyber Chief "Mudge" Zatko Going To Google · · Score: 1, Insightful

    It's two doors down the hall from the old one.

  9. Re:I guess it depends on Is Bitcoin Mining a Real-World Environmental Problem? · · Score: 2

    I get my power by incinerating unicorns and leprechauns. Then I melt down my bitcoins so they can't be traced.

  10. Re:GITMO is an embarrassment and a tragedy on Guantanamo Hearings Delayed as Legal Files Vanish · · Score: 2

    The funny thing about the CIA is that only their failures become public knowledge. Their successes remain very well kept secrets, by default.

  11. Re:Duplicate datacenter on NSA Data Center Brings Concerns Over Security and Privacy and Jobs · · Score: 1

    Isn't it the other way around?

    That's true actually. The government is subservient to business interests, essentially nothing more than their private security.

  13. Re:we don't need this. on NSA Data Center Brings Concerns Over Security and Privacy and Jobs · · Score: 3, Insightful

    Depends on your POV. 'Job creation' is a very effective propaganda tool. It also works in the pollution industries, like coal mining, oil drilling, old forest logging, etc., every well, especially in economically depressed areas. When they claim they are under attack the way the state and the church do, people instinctively come running to their aid.

    Waddya mean? The NSA/CIA/DEA/FBI owns Google.

    The CIA is not incompetent. It is malevolent.

  16. Re:They are being killed on Guantanamo Hearings Delayed as Legal Files Vanish · · Score: 1

    Really, they all have to be silenced somehow for what they know, and still make it look like an accident. The mafia's way of dealing with things like this is much more humane.

  17. Re:Here we go again...... on Scientists Are Cracking the Primordial Soup Mystery · · Score: 1

    if we can figure out how life was created...

    ...mommy kissed daddy, and the angel told the stork. The stork flew down from heaven and left a diamond under a leaf in the cabbage patch, and the diamond turned into a baby.

    Then everything is. We are standing still. Number nine, number nine, number nine...

    Like the magnetic poles themselves. Nothing is absolute, except change...

  21. Re:I agree with him on Zuckerberg Lobbies For More Liberal Immigration Policies · · Score: 1

    That's a load of crap. Eliminating the borders will level the playing field. Borders are why we have slums, to keep the people imprisoned in them.

  22. I agree with him on Zuckerberg Lobbies For More Liberal Immigration Policies · · Score: 0

    All the borders must be torn down, so people can move as easily as capital, and put the slave traders out of business. Every border is a "Berlin Wall".
