  1. Re:turn it around... on Patent Trolls Target Small East Texas Companies · · Score: 1

    That's pretty damn insightful right there.

  2. Re:Dog Food on Patent Trolls Target Small East Texas Companies · · Score: 1

    Pretty sure you mean federal laws there..

  3. Re:don't believe it on Artificial Brain '10 Years Away' · · Score: 1
  4. Re:Who sets those minimum versions? on Keeping Up With DoD Security Requirements In Linux? · · Score: 3, Informative

    The few DOD installations that my company has wired had two completely separate, very secure, physical networks. Big air gap between the secure PCs & the internet.

  5. DOD Repository on Keeping Up With DoD Security Requirements In Linux? · · Score: 1

    Can you set up your own private DOD repository to hold those newer versions? Beats updating a ton of PCs manually.

  6. Re:So... on UK Police Raid Party After Seeing "All-Night" Tag On Facebook · · Score: 1

    They see some people setting up a tent, building up music equipment, arranging some catering - there you go, looks just like preparations for a rave party.

    That sounds like just about every damn party I've ever been to, including company parties. It must *suck* to live in the UK.

  7. Re:privacy nd data security?? on The Pirate Bay to Become a Distributed Storage Cloud? · · Score: 1

    I assume this was figured out when the Coda file system was developed.

  8. Re:What's so difficult about it? on California's Revised Pay-As-You-Drive Insurance Draws Continued Objections · · Score: 1

    Not all states have inspections. I know for a fact Florida got rid of them right before I started driving. Why? They were a hugely intrusive hassle ran by the tin-pot dictators at the FDOT.

    I *really* don't think this would fly here at all.

  9. Re:Paying to Pirate on Music Industry Wants a Cut of Pirate Bay Sale · · Score: 1
  10. Re:chat on US Videogame Sales Have Biggest Drop In 9 Years · · Score: 1

    "The page you are trying to view cannot be shown because it uses an invalid or unsupported form of compression."

    I don't think I've ever seen that web error.

  11. Re:yeah... on US Videogame Sales Have Biggest Drop In 9 Years · · Score: 2, Informative

    Heh, I wait till Newegg or GoGamer has them for $25 or less or if Impuse has a good sale..

  12. Re:What sets it apart? on Aion Shaping Up For US Launch · · Score: 1

    I haven't played Sonic Chronicles or Shattered Steel, & I am patiently awaiting Dragon Age, but going by this list I can honestly say that Bioware has *never* let me down.

    http://www.bioware.com/games/

  13. Re:A what? on Aion Shaping Up For US Launch · · Score: 1

    That looks like a gnome / goblin based expansion for WoW.

  14. Re:Suing yourself is collusive litigation. on Wells Fargo Bank Sues Itself · · Score: 1

    Loaned. Lent is a religious observance.

  15. Re:Fallout 3 - Millenium Engine? on Bethesda Speaks On Gamebryo Engine, Final Fallout 3 DLC · · Score: 1

    If possible, run the game in windowed mode, but at your normal desktop resolution. This fixes that same issue for other games, so it may work for Fallout 3.

  16. Re:They will get away with this. on Murdoch Paper Reporters Eavesdropped On Celebrities' Voicemail · · Score: 2, Funny

    I was going to ask where do you want to gun sent, but that is probably what they call conspiracy.

  17. Re:Addiction is never the disease, it's the sympto on Chinese "Web Addicts" Get Boot Camp, Therapy · · Score: 1

    D.A.R.E. is basically the reason I started experimenting with drugs. Been having a damn good time too! Thanks D.A.R.E.!!

  18. Re:Good idea. on Chinese "Web Addicts" Get Boot Camp, Therapy · · Score: 1

    In his defense history is fucking littered with examples of just that.

  19. Re:They got the ability to talk though on Researcher Discovers ATM Hack, Gets Silenced · · Score: 1

    Headphone jacks are hardware, not software. You don't really think that OS/2 is incapable of sound, do you?

  20. Re:Kudos to them on Toyota Builds a Patent Thicket For Hybrid Cars · · Score: 1

    Only if you're a complete idiot!

  21. Re:As much as I would like to see her in jail... on Judge Tentatively Dismisses Case Against Lori Drew · · Score: 1

    Sad world we live in when common sense is political suicide.

  22. Fail on Blizzard Confirms No LAN Support For Starcraft 2 · · Score: 1

    If I feel like playing multiplayer Starcraft, it's not because I want to play online with a bunch of teenage trolls. Looks like I'll be skipping this game. Ah well, more money for publishers who don't punish their players.

  23. Re:Not a new idea on Galactic Origin For 62M-Year Extinction Cycle? · · Score: 1

    Thanks. Haven't managed to finish it yet. I hate disaster flicks, disaster books don't fare much better apparently.

  24. Re:Not a new idea on Galactic Origin For 62M-Year Extinction Cycle? · · Score: 3, Interesting

    Niven & Pournelle's "Lucifer's Hammer" started out with a nice description of this happening.

  25. Re:IMHO on Domain-Name Wars, Rise of the Cybersquatters · · Score: 1
