  2. Re:AnonOps part of the problem, not the solution on Spamhaus Under DDoS Over Wikileaks.info · · Score: 1

    I thought it was founded at least 100 years ago.

  3. Re:The U.S. government is VERY corrupt. on The Clock Is Ticking On Encryption · · Score: 1

    Will I be charged with capital murder of a federal agent for shooting the armed burglar that I find in my house?

    After the HRT is done with you, there may not be enough of you left to charge you with anything.

  4. Re:Open source government? on NSA Considers Its Networks Compromised · · Score: 1

    what can you call the deliberate murder of millions in Nazi Germany, Soviet Russia, Maoist China and Pol-Pot's Cambodia, other than evil?

    People just doing their job.

  5. Re:Squeeze user here on Debian 6.0 To Feature a Completely Free Kernel · · Score: 1

    Unfortunately, I use software with dependencies that live in multimedia. My system is doing fine so far though, and yes, I run Squeeze.

  6. Re:It's stupid to mess with Scientology or the ban on Scotland Yard Has Been After Anonymous For Months · · Score: 1

    Well, when it mentions

    "gang stalking"

    it's safe to assume the author is either extremely gullible or paranoid. And when I say "paranoid" I don't mean it in the colloquial way but rather the psychological way.

    So, it might not have been worth hurting your eyes over.

  7. Re:Trust No One! on Scotland Yard Has Been After Anonymous For Months · · Score: 4, Insightful

    They just like to fuck shit up. Not "fuck shit up for a good cause." Just "fuck shit up, and if it happens to be for a cause, whatever."

    Sometimes, that's all it takes.

  8. Re:Oh come on on Aussie Spies Spooked By Cyberwar · · Score: 1

    It was cyberfunny.

  9. Re:I AM SPARTACUS - google civil disobediance on Anonymous Now Attacking Corporate Fax Machines · · Score: 5, Insightful

    This is a million geeks saying I AM ANONYMOUS just like the guys saying I AM SPARTACUS in that old movie.

    You do know how that ended, right?

    I suspect their hands are well trained.

    Concerned, yes. About this, not so much.
    Authoritarians will use any excuse to act authoritarian; if not this, than something else.

  12. Re:New name for Air Marshal on SpaceX's Dragon Module Successfully Re-Enters · · Score: 1

    Of course they will be marshals! Who else will uphold the law on the mining colonies on Io?

  13. Re:Orbit? Check - Moon Mission? Mars? on SpaceX's Dragon Module Successfully Re-Enters · · Score: 1

    Well then; just stick to whaling.

    But there ain't no whales! So we tell tall tales.

  14. Re:Remember that tunnel scene from Aliens? on A Peek At South Korea's Autonomous Robot Gun Turrets · · Score: 1

    I'm told that .50 caliber rounds are pretty good at disassembling human bodies.
    The sheer amount of human bodies that will be thrown at the border in an invasion might cause other problems, though: during the war M2s would overheat during human wave attacks.

  15. Re:Unless they can move or be moved easily ... on A Peek At South Korea's Autonomous Robot Gun Turrets · · Score: 1

    They're pretty easily moved. A squad of marines can set up four of these fairly quickly and control them from the next room with laptops.

  16. Re:They have to replace the keyboard first on PC Era Forecasted To End In 18 Months · · Score: 2

    Sorry, but no. Nothing beats the keyboard for input.

    There's an app for that.

  17. Re:Actuality? on Explosive-Laden California Home To Be Destroyed · · Score: 1

    I wonder what's really in the jars,

    Have you ever opened a jar of marmite?

    I think we should all have the right to be arams.

    Instead, the revolution may be twatted.

  20. Re:what about 2017.10? on Ubuntu 11.04 (Natty Narwhal) Makes a First Appearance · · Score: 1

    After we're done with the Latin alphabet, we switch to Greek. After that, Hebrew.

  21. Re:Link to Ubuntu's actual Alpha 1 page.. on Ubuntu 11.04 (Natty Narwhal) Makes a First Appearance · · Score: 1

    How ironic, considering that the properly-written alternative I suggested above is written by a 'Kate Stewart'.

    But how do you know Kate Stewart isn't, in fact, Black and English?

  22. Re:Numbers in your handle? on Wikileaks DDoS Attacker Arrested, Equipment Seized · · Score: 1

    I think someone who uses the letter "k" instead of the letter "c" in their nickname to look kool deserves to have their komputer konfiscated.

    I resemble that remarqk.

    "I would set up a War Crimes Tribunal for my own crimes, because if I take on that position [I would need] to deal with the institutional structure and the culture, the intellectual culture. The culture has to be cured."

    That's from here towards the bottom.

    Where do they throw the abortion victims?

    What the hell is an "abortion victim"? Is that a woman who bled to death after a backstreet abortion went wrong?
