  1. Re:"ambulance chaser" indeed on Red Hat Vs. The Lawyers · · Score: 3, Informative

    Then damn news broke on 2004/07/13. It is now 2004/07/14. A one day delay is very good for /.

  2. Re:Bad luck. on Apple Confirms G5 Based iMac to Ship in September · · Score: 2, Funny

    Just like the Apple iMac production lines have?

  3. Re:or just.... on Apple Confirms G5 Based iMac to Ship in September · · Score: 2, Insightful

    It takes 1 - 4 Billion USD to start up a current gen chip plant. That is the reason apple doesn't do it.

  4. Re:Snore... on More Accusations of Scientific Abuse by the Bush Administration · · Score: 1

    Asprin can be harmful, should it be prescribed also?

  5. Re:Head in the sand on More Accusations of Scientific Abuse by the Bush Administration · · Score: 1

    If bush is serious about the WOT, why aren't the borders secure? Do you think the people that wish to harm us are too stupid to walk across?

    Perhaps they should switch to a supplier that can deliver. I hear that AMD and Intel can. ;->

  7. Re:We've gone way beyond 'ridiculous' now. on DHS Says Cellular Outage Reporting is Terrorist Blueprint · · Score: 1



    Ask those who where at Waco about bombing/killing them. Because you know it would have been TOO HARD to pick Koresh up when he went to town to buy food or go to the bar.

    Yes, you can tell by my 4 digit uid that begins with a 2. ;->

    Why should people who don't pay and support the game get the same treatment that those that pay do?

  10. Re:People may complain but.. on Japanese Schoolchildren to be Tagged with RFID · · Score: 2, Interesting

    With a normal receiver it's short range, but a more sensitive receiver can detect them from much farther away. Also, someone could tap into the system that is used to monitor the kids.

    Think for about 23.2425 seconds about how this could be abused.

  11. Re:People may complain but.. on Japanese Schoolchildren to be Tagged with RFID · · Score: 1

    Yes, because these are MAGIC RFID units that only GOOD PEOPLE can track. If a BAD PERSON tries to track them it turns that BAD PERSON into a jello (tm) pop!

    You know if we banned the internet and computers the kids that are abused and hit on in chat/irc/im would not be hurt.

    Should we ban computers and the net?

  13. Re:No, but hows about 370 miles per charge? on Can Your Car Get 1,700 MPG? · · Score: 1

    (Note that a lead-acid Sunrise would have a real-world range of 60-80 miles, and demand has been very weak for the heavily subsidized Toyota and Honda EVs equipped with advanced batteries, even though these EVs have similar ranges.) This demand-side risk has also made it much more difficult to convince potential manufacturing partners and investors to back the Sunrise.

  14. And the compiler is only $399.00! on PHP 5 Released; PHP Compiler, Too · · Score: 1, Troll

    And the compiler is only $399.00! And it only runs on x86, no Sparc, no AMD64, no PPC and no S/390 support!

    What a deal, what a deal!

    And if you knew what you where talking about you would know that the MAC address isn't guranteed to survive the first hop thru a router.

  18. Re:Vaporware and voting don't mix. on Diebold Sued (Again) Over Shoddy Voting Machines · · Score: 1

    I am not the one who, in the IE thread, said "Built one of these, have you? Do tell, do tell."

    You need to keep your trolls straight, then you will not look like an Idiot. I recommend a perl/postgreSQL based app.

    Perhaps people don't understand why you think your childern should be punching bags. Who do you expect to defend them and how much should they take before they fight back.

    The real world isn't like that.
