  1. Re:It's no surprise.. on Dotcom Search Warrants Ruled Illegal · · Score: 4, Insightful

    I have pride in the ideals of America. I do not have pride that the government no longer aspires to those ideals.

    And there is only so much that any individual can do. Especially if you hold justice and liberty as sacred.

    You can't just execute every bothersome politician. And it wouldn't do much good any way.

    All I can really do is be vocal, vote for the least bad option and maybe run for local office.

  2. Re:Basic logic should come first. on Chatbot Eugene Wins Biggest Turing Test Ever · · Score: 2

    If they wanted to mimic a real 13 year old boy, the answer to every question that it can't parse could be selected from the following list.

  3. Re:Finally on Injected Proteins Protect Mice From Lethal Radiation Dose · · Score: 3, Funny

    How about RadAway?

  4. Re:It has nothing to do with global warming on U.S. East Coast a Hotspot of Sea-Level Rise · · Score: 1

    Water does not compress easily, but it does compress.

    Put it under a few trillion tons of pressure and everything compresses.

    The density also varies by temperature. nearly freezing water is less dense than cool/warm water, as is hot water.

  5. Re:try this: on NASA Finds Major Ice Source In Moon Crater · · Score: 3, Informative

    0 if you move it in solid form.

  6. Re:Irony on 2 New Social Networks With Very Different Political Twists · · Score: 1

    Bradley manning screwed himself by revealing his actions to someone who could not be trusted. Tor wouldn't have helped him that much.

  7. Re:Irony on 2 New Social Networks With Very Different Political Twists · · Score: 2

    No...

    Wikileaks has always sought to protect the identity and lives of the people who reveal the secrets of corporations and governments who would seek to harm them.

  8. Re: Why risk tipping their hat? on NVIDIA Responds To Linus Torvalds · · Score: 1

    Let me know when intel starts offering usable levels of performance. They just don't have it yet if you play anything more advanced than solitaire.

  9. Re:I would change the order of domains and sub dom on How Would You Redesign the TLD Hierarchy? · · Score: 1

    Is who you are more important or is where you are?
    From a routing perspective no, the domain matters more.
    From a user perspective? most likely who they are matters more.

    I am agnostic on the position of identity.
    I just don't have a compelling argument either way at the moment.

  10. Re:It will violate the CIA's privacy when we know on NSA Claims It Would Violate Americans' Privacy To Say How Many of Us It Spied On · · Score: 4, Funny

    That was the old way.

    Now DHS spies on everyone and all agencies share the same intelligence channel.

  11. It will violate the CIA's privacy when we know on NSA Claims It Would Violate Americans' Privacy To Say How Many of Us It Spied On · · Score: 1

    It will violate the CIA's privacy when we know that they spy on everyone.

  12. I would change the order of domains and sub domain on How Would You Redesign the TLD Hierarchy? · · Score: 4, Interesting

    I would change the order of domains and sub domains in the url.

    protocol://tld.domain.subdomain:port/rootfolder/subfolder/document

    It just makes more sense. every other part of the URL is in order order of greatest to least significance. If the url was written with an IP address, the entire thing would be in order of greatest to least significance.

    Yes, I know that this is not the question asked. But its what I would do.

  13. Re:Ahem on Six Arrested Over Japanese Android Porn Virus · · Score: 5, Funny

    Either A) Japanese women don't look at porn, or B) They were smart enough not to shell out $1200

    Or C) They don't use Android.

    Japanese women ARE Android.

  14. Re:Nice new business model on US Gov't Wants Megaupload Users To Pay For Their Data · · Score: 1

    Both actually work in this case.

    A suspect or asses can cease to be, by act of the government.

    This often involves a bullet applied at high velocity to the suspect or asset.

  15. Re:Ti on HSA Foundation Formed By AMD, ARM, Ti, Imagination, and MediaTek · · Score: 1

    That is a perfectly valid joke in context! No reason to mod down! Mod funny instead.

  16. Texas Instruments AND Texas Instruments? on HSA Foundation Formed By AMD, ARM, Ti, Imagination, and MediaTek · · Score: 1

    Wow, its very rare to see both of them cooperating on the same project.

  17. Re:Easy on Where Are All the High-Resolution Desktop Displays? · · Score: 1

    6 good 21 inch LED screens with small/no bevel will cost around $1200 by by themselves. Not counting the mounting rack. Though I would only need a second radeon 7970 to push the pixels fast enough to not notice.

  18. Re:Easy on Where Are All the High-Resolution Desktop Displays? · · Score: 1

    If you are willing to drop $1200 you can get a 2560 x 1600

    He is getting his dystopias mixed up.

    I had a dell laptop with a rotating "touch" (stylus) screen nearly a decade ago. Its not new.

    You missed the keyword. Best REPUBLICAN president. Clinton wasn't a republican.

    Yes, he is. But he is still the best republican president we have had in a century.

  23. Re:Hard to feel bad for them on A Day In the Life of a "Booth Babe" · · Score: 1

    If they were ugly they wouldn't be working as "booth babes".

    Intelligence has nothing to do with it. There are porn stars with advanced doctoral degrees.

    Hell, I know several very intelligent women who dress up in skin tight outfits (and cat ears) and then PAY to get into conventions to be ogled.
