  1. Re:But... on World's Servers Process 9.57ZB of Data a Year · · Score: 1

    The only way to do this with modern technology is called an Arcade. Yeah, I went there.

    If people have physical access to the hardware and software, all the security in the world won't stop them from doing what they want to it in the long term.

  2. Re:Rights on Sony To Offer Free Identity Theft Monitoring · · Score: 1

    I see you lack the concept of "replay value". Some people like playing games more than once, especially sandbox games and games with level editors.

  3. Predicted future news on Robotic "Tongue" Lets You French Kiss Over The Internet · · Score: 1

    A famous rock star was sued today by an outraged mother whose daughter played his recording on the Kiss Transmission Device. The mother wants it to be ruled as child molestation and to be awarded infinity plus one dollars as damages for this heinous crime.

  4. Re:Simple on Mediacom Using DPI To Hijack Searches, 404 Errors · · Score: 1

    Did you pack them correctly? There's more to it than putting it in a box and filling the gaps with packing peanuts.

  5. Re:Common Carriers on Mediacom Using DPI To Hijack Searches, 404 Errors · · Score: 2

    Good thing they aren't common carriers, then.

  6. Re:Simple on Mediacom Using DPI To Hijack Searches, 404 Errors · · Score: 1

    I don't know where you live, but I don't have that issue. The only thing vaguely wrong with my mail is that a lot of it wont fit into my mailbox flat. I have received exactly one damaged box, and the contents were intact.

  7. Re:Government created this monopoly on Mediacom Using DPI To Hijack Searches, 404 Errors · · Score: 2

    No, the alternative was to regulate the monopoly as if were a monopoly, as opposed to pretending there were free market forces affecting the company.

  8. Re:Why pay $x when you can pay $x^x? on Amazon Automatic Pricing Lists Book At $23M · · Score: 1

    According to them, 0 units at $8.5b. Clearly people must be pirating the content, and should be sued to recoup the money!

  9. Dual screen game system? on Sony's New Android-based Dual Screen Tablets · · Score: 1

    So Sony is marketing the PDS now? (Playstation Dual Screen) I wonder if I will be able to play NDS games on it.

  10. PSP vs 3DS on Sony Reportedly Ends PSP Go Production · · Score: 1, Interesting

    One thing people forget is that, for a growing number of games, the PSP is also capable of 3D via setting the display to red-cyan anaglyph images.

    Of course, this is a 3rd party feature that can only be used on hacked PSPs last I checked, but it's not like that's very hard.

  11. Re:First Post on Chinese Censors Crack Down on Time Travel · · Score: 1

    Try listening to feminists on the internet. A lot of them clearly either don't understand the concept of "equal rights" or would vastly prefer force men to be Stepford Spouses.

  12. Re:Governet on DOJ Gets Court Permission To Attack Botnet · · Score: 1

    They charge extra to record the wrong information on their end.

  13. Re:Yup on DRM Drives Gamers To Piracy, Says Good Old Games · · Score: 1

    Protip: by and large, pirates get all of your nice patches/DLC/multiplayer/whatever. Even on consoles.

  14. Predicted future news: on Scientists Create a "Worth Saving" Index For Endangered Animals · · Score: 2, Interesting

    Professor Corey Bradshaw was assassinated by PETA agents for daring to imply that any animal was less important than any human. Their press release states that any other scientists that dare to put the survival of the hated human race above the that of the least important member of the animal kingdom would be similarly put to death.

  15. Re:No. on Is Science Just a Matter of Faith? · · Score: 1

    How about all of the verses where Jesus told off the Pharisees for expecting some sort of sign proving he was the son of God? Oh, wait, contradictions are taken in the way that is most beneficial to the side of the argument I'm not on, I forgot.

  16. Re:No. on Is Science Just a Matter of Faith? · · Score: 1

    Every version of the Bible that I have read, KJV, NIV, ETC, agree on one thing - Faith is expected to be blind. Wanting anything even vaguely resembling proof is a sin.

  17. Ummm... on Interpol Wants a Global Identity Card System · · Score: 2

    But all of the pastor's I've listened to told me the Beast was going to come from the USA!

  18. SRW on Afghanistan Called First "Robotic War" · · Score: 1

    Call me back when the first Super Robot War happens. We're getting close to working power armor, at the very least.

  19. Good run on Mars Rover Down? Spirit Stays Silent · · Score: 1

    They did only design the Mars Rovers with a six month operational life. That they lasted as long as they have was extremely lucky.

  20. Re:Only one question on Newspaper Plagiarizes Blog, Taunts Real Author · · Score: 1

    What about Klingon?

  21. Re:Better services out already on Amazon Releases Cloud-Based Music Service · · Score: 1

    Asking a bot questions will not get you answers. They aren't programmed for that most of the time.

    The answer is "Not if they can help it".

  22. Re:FYI on Internet Abbreviations Added To Oxford Dictionary · · Score: 1

    Well, they do say that English rap^H^H^H forcibly takes new words from foreign languages. Although this word probably liked it.

  23. Re:yawn, get to the juicy stuff on Inside a Verizon Wireless Superswitch · · Score: 0

    The one where they all find out they are de facto breaking the law if they don't? Ignore the fact that sending the copy may be de jure illegal, as de jure does not matter in these instances.

  24. Obligatory on The First Plastic Computer Processor · · Score: 4, Funny

    16 instructions should be enough for everybody!

  25. Re:Trade-offs on Google Mobile-Payment Patent Raises Privacy Flags · · Score: 2

    Try that at a Car Rental place. See how far it gets you.

    Spoilers- you'll get arrested and fined before they do.
