  1. I stopped at... on How Russia May Send Cosmonauts To the Moon After All (examiner.com) · · Score: 5, Insightful

    I stopped reading at (...and the costs of Vladimir Putin's imperial adventures in the Ukraine and Syria). Can we please stop with the propaganda pieces. I have much to do and don't want to have to look at ideological crap on /. Ok, rant off. FWIW, I think a permanent moon base should be very high on the priority list. It matters not to me who actually builds it. Chinese, Russian, EU,,, it doesn't matter.

  2. Re:Consider the use on Obama Orders Feds To Study Smart Gun Technology (cnet.com) · · Score: 1

    The gun question can be answered pretty simply and within reasonable bounds of the constitution: The people should be able to arm themselves to the level of the *****CIVILIAN POLICE******. So, whatever the oinkers can have, we can have too. Where they can carry, we can carry too. ...and we DON'T need their permission to keep and bear arms.

  3. Re:still protecting our imaginary secrets? on Always-Listening IoT Devices Raise Security Policy Questions For the Workplace (securityweek.com) · · Score: 1

    For the camera: http://www.jerrysartarama.com/... Sticks to gorilla glass like an octopus.

  4. Re:Slippery Slope on An FBI Hacking Campaign Targeted Over a Thousand Computers (vice.com) · · Score: 2

    NOBODY in the United States is excused from their obligation to honor the provisions of the Constitution,,,especially when they took an oath on it. Questions???

  5. Re:Last laptop on Microsoft Monitoring How Long You Use Windows 10 (betanews.com) · · Score: 2

    I'm right with you on that. Also, I have been using LXLE on a netbook and I like that very much too. Dear M$, No need to monitor all that silly data. It always takes 40% longer to do anything on Windows than it does on Linux. Mostly because I am constantly having to futz around making the OS work. Go to the corner of the room, curl up into a fetal position, and cry your eyes out. Ura Loser.

  6. Re:Morph-a -lot on Ask Slashdot: Jamming UK Metadata Collection? · · Score: 1

    You're right, it's a minor obfuscation, but I do believe that morphing as much as possible is useful.

  7. Re:Which code editor does he prefer? on Zuckerberg To Build Personal AI For Help At Home and Work (facebook.com) · · Score: 1

    Beg to differ. Zucks has all the time in the world because his .gov handlers are running the company for him while he sits in the corner and plays with his expensive toys...

  8. Re:Indoctrination of the younger generation: Compl on Majority of Americans OK With Warrantless Internet Surveillance (ap.org) · · Score: 1

    Sometimes the truth can be unpleasant. Deal with it... There is a global socio-economic shitstorm of biblical proportions brewing on the horizon. Feel free to keep your head buried in the sand.

  9. Then you don't get encryption. I fired M$ in '07. They were the first to jump up and down with both hands raided and pester the NSA to "Pick Me". Do "you" trust M$??? Linux rocks!!!

  10. Whatr u gonna do w a 256k SD card???

  11. Re:Don't want on UCLA Creates Super-Strong, Super-Light Metal (ucla.edu) · · Score: 1

    LOL, too bad I used up all my mod points... I'm guessing that this material would not be allowed on passenger carrying craft without being stabilized in some way...

  12. Re:FOOKING COONTS! on Google Planning New Messaging App With AI Chatbots (wsj.com) · · Score: 1

    Beam it in, Scotty,,,

  13. It's really nothing. I do experiments like this all the time just eating the crap in my refrigerator.

  14. Re:More than just the rules on The Humans Crashing Into Driverless Cars are Exposing a Key Flaw (bloomberg.com) · · Score: 1

    You're right. For example, the safest speed on the highway can be described as "the number of cars I passed equals the number of cars that passed me". This kind of logic should be integrated into the software.

  15. Re:FP on EFF Launches Panopticlick 2.0 (eff.org) · · Score: -1, Offtopic

    Thanks, you spoiled it for me. I'm going to go sit in the corner and cry.

  16. Re:So? Who did it? on CISA Surveillance Bill Hidden Inside Last Night's Budget Bill (engadget.com) · · Score: 1

    Hear hear!

  17. It's not Posner, the NSA has some dirt on him and he's singing like a bird for them...

    Im a hydrophiliac. I need that stuff...

  20. Re: State-Sponsored attacks? on Twitter Users Warned About Being Targeted By State-Sponsored Attacks (bbc.com) · · Score: 1

    What makes you think it's "foreign" governments???

  21. The UK is only less regulated because they don't have the OUTSTANDING government infrastructure that we have here in the good 'ol USSA. Europeans in general are slightly less risk averse as we are here in nannyland...

  22. Re:Oh, please! on How Much Is That Click, Clack Worth? (failuremag.com) · · Score: 1

    I don't miss any of those things either, butt what I do miss is the knowledge that what I sent was not perused by half a dozen TLAs along the way. Privacy is one of the cornerstones of our way of life. Giveing it up to the likes of one J. Comey is truly an unwise decision that will haunt us for generations. The bulletheads need their collective leashes yanked... just sayin'

  23. Forbes is clinging desperately to relevance and their barbaric business model. The execs over there are getting worried about their bonuses. I didn't make it to the article before I threw up my hands in dismay. Here's a link to an earthsky article on the same subject. http://earthsky.org/space/how-...

  24. Re:forbes = ad hell on Why Is Gravity the Weakest Force? · · Score: 1

    Forbes is a disaster in general...
