  1. Re:Support Municipal Cable on Comcast Launches Program For Low-Income Families · · Score: 2

    Government-started is not the same as Government-provided. The Government has played no role in my internet access other than regulations and taxes.

  2. Re:Very broken system on Gang Used 3D Printers To Make ATM Skimmers · · Score: 1

    I once took a pin and used a twist-tie to attach a piece of paper with the number 3 written on it. In general, however, I leave my pins unnumbered.

  3. Re:Keep on with science on NASA Looking To Power Spacecraft With Lasers · · Score: 1

    That's utterly retarded statement. Until the RnD is done, how could you possibly know how much it would cost? Or is that figure the upper bounds before everyone gives up?

  4. Re:The cliche practically coined for this occasion on Samsung May Try To Block Next iPhone In Europe Too · · Score: 1

    You may wish to learn how to read.

  5. Re:Shame on Microsoft Ousts IE Mobile Manager For Revealing Nokia Phone Details · · Score: 1

    Huh? WP7 phones have been available for months.

  6. Re:What an over sensationalist title on How Microsoft Can Lock Linux Off Windows 8 PCs · · Score: 1

    You're pretty dense. Millions of people buy laptops every year without Windows installed.

  7. Re:Nerds have no clue on Mozilla Lightning Calendar Nears 1.0 · · Score: 1

    What the fuck does it mean that PSP isn't a professional program? First of all, how is it not professional? What does that mean? And second, why the fuck does that matter for PSP, but not for Mozilla, VLC or the GIMP?

  8. Re:Just another monopoly on Microsoft Taking Apple's Walled Garden Approach For Metro Apps · · Score: 5, Insightful

    One day you will learn what a monopoly is in the eyes of the Law, and your poor little mind will simply melt.

    Hint: Apple is not a monopoly, in precisely the same way Ford isn't a monopoly for being the only manufacturer of Ford vehicles.

  9. Re:Anti Anti-Virus? on Microsoft Taking Apple's Walled Garden Approach For Metro Apps · · Score: 1

    No they won't. An app might have a legitimate reason for access to otherwise private data, but still contain a trojan that sends that data off to some bot herder. In short, you're not too bright, but you are a fanboy.

  10. Re:Easy on Essential Open Source Tools For Windows Admins · · Score: 1

    Windows will happily run whatever software you care to write. You are an unreasonable and unreasoning fucktard.

    There is not a single product, free or otherwise, that does what AD does, or even half as well.

  11. Re:Avoid SGC on Gamers Piece Together Retrovirus Enzyme Structure · · Score: 1

    Seems like you're proving WP's point.

  12. Re:Tax planning and rich people on White House Proposes "Wealthy Tax" · · Score: 1

    As long as we have only this planet for resources, there is a limit on expansion. (And even if we start mining asteroids or colonizing space, there's also a limit, but not one that matters in the near term.)

  13. Re:Market fragmentation on The (Big) Problem With RIM · · Score: 1

    I'd like to know what year it is in RIM's world, such that QNX is a new platform?

  14. Re:Bad on Israel To Join CERN As First Non-European Member · · Score: 2

    They've probably blown themselves up so they can get to their 72 virgins already.

  15. Re:wait a minute on Israel To Join CERN As First Non-European Member · · Score: 1

    Umm, are you trying to make this sound like news? Jews and Arabs are both semitic. Of course they are related genetically.

  16. Re:Check their DNA on Soyuz Capsule Return Marred By Mystery Communications Blackout · · Score: 1

    A lot of really bad movies have started exactly like this.

    FTFY.

  17. Re:Best Suggestion EVAR on Obama To Sign 'America Invents Act of 2011' Today · · Score: 1

    Abandonware is about copyright.

  18. Re:Well... on Microsoft: No Windows 8 ARM Support For x86 Apps · · Score: 1

    Right below the -1 shove Java down your throat and choke on it.

  19. Re:Well... on Microsoft: No Windows 8 ARM Support For x86 Apps · · Score: 1

    If you want a tablet that is a PC, go and build your own fucking tablet. Who decided? The people that actually make stuff, you lazy, selfish consumer.

  20. Re:Well... on Microsoft: No Windows 8 ARM Support For x86 Apps · · Score: 0

    A better question would be: Why are you a fucking moron?

    If battery life is a concern and you must run an x86 Windows program on a tablet, go and build your own fucking tablet and stuff a huge fucking battery in it.

  21. Re:Emulation has worked on Macs on Microsoft: No Windows 8 ARM Support For x86 Apps · · Score: 2

    You are ignorant. Don't contradict someone without doing even a modicum of research.

    The early PowerPC Macs emulated the 68k to run 68k binaries. The early Intel Macs came with Rosetta, to run PowerPC binaries.

  22. Re:What do they expect? on Netflix To Lose 1 Million Subscribers · · Score: 1

    They would love to do that, but their sources are idiots and shitheads who don't want to increase their income by letting Netflix stream their content.

  23. Re:So Many Missing Links to Choose From on Dinosaur Feathers Found In Amber · · Score: 1

    But which one is the weakest link?

  24. Re:BSODs are very often hardware related on Windows 8 Roundup · · Score: 1

    You are a retarded idiot.

    Only on pure microkernel OS's do drivers not live in kernel-space, and there are no pure microkernel OS's in use outside of research labs.

  25. Re:Why on New BIOS Exploiting Rootkit Discovered · · Score: 1

    I've been with the same company for more or less 12 years, and I have never seen IT (I work in IT) do a BIOS update on a single system, much less company-wide. What kind of crap do you buy that you have need to do this en-mass?
