  1. Re:Another downside for iTMS users on Review of Squeezebox MP3 Player · · Score: 4, Insightful

    That's a reason not to buy encrypted AACs, not a reason not to buy this thingie. Do you really want DRM on the squeezebox?

  2. Re:Beginning of DMCA downfall? on Diebold Folds In DMCA E-Voting Lawsuit · · Score: 1

    And so long as defendants kowtow to the plaintiffs, this will continue. The lesson here is that it pays to fight back.

  3. Re:Please keep children and grandmothers out of it on MPAA, RIAA Seek Permanent Antitrust Exemption · · Score: 1
    Come on guys, lets keep the standards high

    ummm ... what web site are we on again?

    and use solid arguments in place of trying to sling mud at the RIAA.

    Hasn't worked. The only way you can get any law passed these days is to claim it's for the children. Call it Briannas 's Law and we might just have something (not least because she has such a modern name).

  4. Idiots! on MPAA Sued Over DVD Screener Ban · · Score: 2, Insightful

    Just quit the MPAA and be done with it!

  5. National opt-out list on Spammers Pleased with 'Anti'-Spam Act · · Score: 1

    Which will be treated as the national opt-in list by the first foreign spammer to get a copy of it.

  6. DAMN GOOD IDEA on Spammers Pleased with 'Anti'-Spam Act · · Score: 1

    I will try this tonight or tomorrow. Very clever.

  7. Also on Spammers Pleased with 'Anti'-Spam Act · · Score: 1

    You really need to hear what these execs have to say. Don't forget to check out the DMNews website. In case it's slashdotted, try again! Then try again! And if you're not sick of it yet, try again!

  8. Re:The Gimp? on L.A. County Bans Use Of "Master/Slave" Term · · Score: 1

    Or, if castrated, about Unix itself.

  9. He's a programmer, yet couldn't delete Spyware? on Man Arrested for 'Spam Rage' · · Score: 0, Flamebait

    Dumbass. Throw the book at him.

  10. It's true on Japanese Mars Probe Failing · · Score: 2, Funny

    They should have launched a Hikari first.

  11. Re:bluetooth on iPod-Jacked · · Score: 4, Funny

    What would be even nicer would be to "bluejack" someone else's iPod and switch their music selection from Justin Timberlake to Led Zeppelin. Instant musical taste fix!

  12. Re:Sign the HR 2239 petition! on Los Alamos Reconsiders Touch Screen Voting · · Score: 1

    Is that an ironclad lockbox? Because we all know what happened to that!

  13. Re:Why this is stupid. on Mouse Gestures in Javascript · · Score: 1
    Here's another reason: that eraserhead thing on Toshiba and IBM laptops. The thought of trying mouse gestures on that makes my hands hurt just thinking about it.

    And of course the issue mentioned by others on selecting text and generally doing other stuff with normal mouse (eraserhead) movements. Adding gestures that I have never heard of, yet conflict with normal use of the internet, is a dumb idea.

  14. US most prolific phone tapper? on Encrypted Cell Phone Hits the Market · · Score: 3, Insightful
  15. Let 'em waste their time. on SCO Hints at *BSD Lawsuits Next Year, And More · · Score: -1, Troll

    *BSD is dying anyway.

  16. Comdex? on Gates Comdex Keynote Shows Plans, Matrix Spoof · · Score: 4, Funny

    Isn't that dying faster than *BSD?

  17. Re:$600 Million on NASA Debates How And When To Kill Hubble Telescope · · Score: 1

    Compared with what we pay for the ISS, it's a fucking bargain.

  18. Re:I've got it... on NASA Debates How And When To Kill Hubble Telescope · · Score: 1
    It might be hard to find a PowerBook running Copland, however.

    (I have a dead 5300 if anyone wants to try.)

  19. Re:Anyone know... on Google Code Jam Winner Announced · · Score: 3, Funny

    Not enough coders willing to work for free or cheap at Google?

  20. I tawt I taw... on E-Voting Expert Testifies · · Score: 1
    Del. Jean Cryor, a Montgomery County Republican, said she came to the briefing thinking Rubin would be a "smart aleck." "I thought he was far more credible than I thought," she said.

    Well, I thought I thought he was better than I thought you thought. So there.

  21. Badass on Move Over Mini-ITX, Here Comes The gigaQube · · Score: 1

    Props to the guy for still having his HP 200LX, which was a most excellent MS-DOS based palmtop PC back in the day.

  22. Re:My Penis is Bigger Than Yours on Big Science has a Twenty-Year Plan · · Score: 2, Funny
    I sometimes wonder, if you took just 0.1% of that money and gave it to a random bunch of OSS developers, how much progress would come out of that.

    Twenty new P2P applications, six new unrelated GUIs for Linux (but ooh, look, this is more like 200 because they support skins), and STILL no functioning GNU/HURD.

  23. Re:Apple approved fix on iTunes for Windows Breaking Older iPods · · Score: 5, Funny

    Even better fix: Don't use anything. Go back to vinyl for that warm, fuzzy, buttery sound.

  24. Re:hostip.info on Map the Internet... In One Day? · · Score: 1

    Why? Just so you can help evildoers like MLB.TV block viewers from seeing broadcasts in their area? No thanks, I'd rather IPs not be associated with geographic locations.
