  1. Re:Meh. on West Antarctica Warming Faster Than Thought · · Score: 1

    Curious, is that 500 AD, BC, or some measurement of time based on Anonymous Cowards?

  2. Re:Why not just block messaging? on New York Culls Sex Offenders From the Online Gaming Ranks · · Score: 1

    This is occuring in New York and enacted by a Democrat, thanks for showing your bigotry.

  3. Re:Both sides of the coin on Young Students Hiding Academic Talent To Avoid Bullying · · Score: 1

    Haha yeah throw a kid over a table in front of everyone and they tend to leave you alone after that. Funny thing is though I never once felt I was being bullied for being smart (aced nearly every test, always scored in the 99th percentile on standardized tests). I was bullied for being poor, quiet, and oddly for never running. Being smart is rarely the reason people are bullied, more often it's some social stigma. You look funny, have poor social skills, have a superiority complex, etc. Easier to feel good about yourself if you can tell yourself it is because you are smart.

    It's a pigeonshoot, you do know that the pigeons aren't running around on the ground correct?

    All speech is free, it's the consequences of your speech that you may have to pay for.

  6. Re:Let them go. on Secession Petitions Flood White House Website · · Score: 1

    Actually BMO you are the bigot as you lump everyone who disagrees with your politics together. You are the one calling people retards and racists. The AC said nothing that would indicate he is either racist or a retard, he merely said something you disagreed with.

  7. Re: we survived bush on Secession Petitions Flood White House Website · · Score: 1

    Convenient how everyone gives a pass to the Democratic governor who didn't do her job which prevented the Feds from doing theirs.

  8. Re:What's new? on Apple Planning To Build Private Restaurant · · Score: 5, Funny

    Well if it's urinals I'd think they'd really want you to not give a crap.

    Duh he can't tell you that, he's dead remember?

    Care for a breath mint?

  11. Re:Somehow on Dharun Ravi Trial: Hate Crime Or Stupidity? · · Score: 1

    Actually since he committed suicide I doubt he's going to have problems or anything ahead of him.

  12. Re:Survival not so good for TFA website: on Submitting "Nuking the Fridge" To Scientific Peer Review · · Score: 1

    So are you putting the bread under your laptop or on top of your tower? And does running it hot enough to toast bread really qualify it as a toaster?

  13. Re:Wrong subject on Submitting "Nuking the Fridge" To Scientific Peer Review · · Score: 2

    All the movies except the last had a supernatural feel to them. Making it aliens and not something unexplainable prevents the imagination from attempting to fill in the explanation which leaves the viewer no sense of wonder. It would be like if someone made a Star Wars movie in which they explained what the Force was made from...

    *sigh* ok you win, here's my tenmillionbux. millionbux, millionbux, millionbux, millionbux, millionbux, millionbux, millionbux, millionbux, millionbux, millionbux and just because you were so nice about here's an extra millionbux.

  15. Re:Car Analogy on EFF Asks To Make Jailbreaking Legal For All Devices · · Score: 2

    That's been done for years in order to fine tune a motor for increased hp/torque/fuel efficiency.

    I thought it was that you could find a politician

  17. Re:Should X be mandatory? on Should Composting Be Mandatory In US Cities? · · Score: 1

    Actually I should pay less if I'm doing the sorting. After all it saves them money, not me.

    Ha Ha jokes on you, I switched boxes!

  20. Re:Backlight on Qualcomm's Butterfly Wing Display Gets Nearer · · Score: 2

    Actually how hard would it be to have either a backlight that could be turned on/off at whim or a small glow bar that swung out from the face a short distance to provide illumination as needed?

  21. Misleading Title on Minecraft Is Finished · · Score: 1

    Did anyone else read the headline and think "oh and here I thought they were doing well"? Perhaps saying it was no longer in beta would have been better.

  22. Re:From my perspective on Is There an Institutional Bias Against Black Tech Entrepreneurs? · · Score: 1

    This is one of the best troll posts I've read in a while. Or I can tell you why you weren't receiving responses. You claim to have grown up middle class, yet your writing is horrid for anyone past the 9th grade, grammar and structure in particular. I'm sure anyone reading your writings would be more accepting (see what I did there?) of you if they believed english wasn't your native tongue. If you aren't trolling I recommend you take some courses to improve your writing skills, at some point you will want to rise within a company and they'll know english is your native tongue.

  23. Re:Rather Petty, Adobe... on Adobe Ends Development of Flash On Mobile Browsers · · Score: 1

    Considering how petty Adobe and Apple have been to each other over the years, this comes as no surprise.

  24. Re:Go basic on DARPA Seeks Input On Securing Networks Against Attackers · · Score: 1

    Actually if you wanted real USB security you'd open the system pull the wires off the headers then epoxy/clip the header so no one could open the system and add a stealth usb port to the header. Keep in mind there are anywhere from 1-6 sets of headers on the motherboard and a few minutes of work would allow someone to attach usb devices whenever they wanted.

  25. Re:A first on Bill Gates Advocates Tax On Financial Transactions · · Score: 1

    Most of those people didn't lie to buy a house, they were told they could afford a house by people who knew better. So banks (surprise) and realtors committed fraud, and now people blame the ones who wanted the dream?
