  1. one in fifty thousand on Ubuntu Powered Tablet Spotted! · · Score: 1

    Really that many people recompile their kernel amazing. I think your being optimistic about the number of geeky enough people.

  2. due to a GRUB issue on Ubuntu Powered Tablet Spotted! · · Score: 1

    Grub2 that ubuntu/mint use works very well I usually keep my kernels latest release and have never had problems with Grub2. I've had lots of problems however with Alsa/PulseAudio doing kernel updates. I use Grub2 for booting 4/os and its awesome when I install a new distro don't install the new distro's Grub/Lilo. Boot to Mint go to terminal type "update grub2" works every time.
    Also with a tablet I doubt you would even see the boot loader on the screen. How many people will install 2 os on a tablet? Why give people boot options when it is completely unnecessary.
    Imagine starting up your new Mac/Win machine and it gives you an option to boot into OSX/Win7 respectively wouldn't you just be thinking WTF is wrong with the people that made this thing? It would actually look kind of amateurish if there was a visible Grub2 during boot.

    To much money on phone bills.
    5 minutes for it to start.
    Random crashes for no reason (particularly media player).
    The actual telephone part of it had so many quirks it was only semi usable as a phone.
    Internet was dodgy at best and I live next (2 miles) to a new tower .
    I got a new phone like my old one from 4-5 years ago couldn't be happier but now I have a BB Storm that's basically an mp3 player and did I mention media player crashes a lot requiring a 5 min reboot

    I think rampant government corruption will do more to damage my child's mind than seeing some porn.

  16. Its quite simple. on British ISPs Respond On Filtering · · Score: 1

    Unfortunately, it's technically not possible to completely block this stuff. You end up with a system that's either hugely expensive and a losing battle because there are millions of these sites or it's just not effective. The cost of putting these systems in place outweigh the benefits, to my mind.
    Pornnet and Internet could be separated or as simple as .porn domain to make filtering easier.

  17. Re:How does a condom break (no stupid jokes please on Assange Secret Swedish Police Report Leaked · · Score: 1

    Actually condoms tend to get really dry before they break. If its dry-dry-dry-wet it pretty safe to assume the condom didn't automatically lube itself.

  19. Re:Opting in on UK Gov't Wants To Block Internet Porn By Default · · Score: 1

    The fetishes zach talks about can involve feet, anal sex, even sex involving urine and some other gross stuff.All that stuff can be gotten at a magazine rack it can be proven the porn on the magazine rack it legit with consenting people involved not so with your internet porn. Take cragslist and how they just dropped the adult part of it in Canada. Why? Because most of the people advertising on there were under age girls forced to be prostitutes if we can regulate milk,eggs,meat etc porn should be regulated too.
    in fact most is consensual I'm sure How do you know? I know my meat at the store is safe because of regulations and if there is contamination the gov mandates a recall and the company can be dealt with legaly if there is negligence etc. How do you know the chick getting fucked up the ass on your computer is of a legal age and not getting rapped or drugged out of her mind?

  20. Re:Opting in on UK Gov't Wants To Block Internet Porn By Default · · Score: 1

    How do you know its consensual? That is one reason why the goverment regulates porn. And to keep minors out of the porn industry as well as regulate medical check to prevent disease.
    That's like saying raw milk is legal.

  21. Re:Opting in on UK Gov't Wants To Block Internet Porn By Default · · Score: -1, Troll

    Plus, internet porn is going to have more varietyAnd that's why it needs to be regulated just like the real porn industry. But you hit the nail on the head because internet porn isn't for convenience its for depravity that goes beyond the normal definition of porn. Meaning you couldn't buy it at the magazine rack, and is probably illegal in your country right?

  22. Re:Opting in on UK Gov't Wants To Block Internet Porn By Default · · Score: -1, Troll

    If your ashamed of what you are doing you should not be doing it.
    Internet porn is for people who are to chicken shit to walk up to the magazine rack pick up something with big tities on the cover and a caption like "face full of cum" and then walk over to the till with some cute little blonde who turns red when she sees what you have in your hand. And no not that "thing".

    How about when they want to make sure you don't stumble across something embarrassing to the government. Or is it simply just a case of certain individuals in the government working for the paper/DVD based porn lobby?

    it's utterly irrelevant to the case what the real definition is, because that's not what the prosecution and defence are talking about.
    What if the prosecution and defence are in cahoots together to get a innocent man thrown in jail to protect the son of some rich asshole? The police are famous in Canada for prosecuting the mentally handicapped for stuff they didn't do, they want a conviction not justice or the truth.
