  1. Re:Sorry, Prenda on Copyright Trolls Sue Bloggers, Defense Lawyers · · Score: 3, Interesting

    The trolls' lawyers should be disbarred for taking the case.

  2. Re:Aiding the enemy on Bradley Manning Pleads Guilty To 10 Charges · · Score: 2

    I think it depends on who you consider the "enemy" to be.

    I think it's apparent through the actions of the government over the past several years that they consider the American people to be the enemy.

  3. Re:Spring is in the Air on CT State Senator Wants To Ban Kids From Using Arcade Guns · · Score: 1

    I remember a commercial years ago with a father who kept his gun in a combination lockbox. Cut to the two kids trying to open it, using a computer to keep track of what combinations they've already tried.

  4. Re:cowboys and indians? on CT State Senator Wants To Ban Kids From Using Arcade Guns · · Score: 1

    There are so much better ways to make a term PC than to replace "man" or "woman" with "person". How about "cattle driver"?

  5. Re:How have patents helped the world lately? on The Patents That Threaten 3-D Printing · · Score: 2

    And yet they are being stolen anyway, and the small inventor still can't compete because the large company can afford better lawyers.

  6. Re:That is what they're for... on The Patents That Threaten 3-D Printing · · Score: 1

    I did think up something like that, but my idea was for it to be able to break apart into a powder afterwards.

  7. Re:Worried about GPS too? on FCC Proposal Would Cover the US With Public Wi-Fi · · Score: 1

    I know you're joking, but everyone needs to realize that GPS devices don't communicate back to the GPS satellites.

  8. Re:Methinks . . . on FCC Proposal Would Cover the US With Public Wi-Fi · · Score: 2

    The government might not have your best interests at heart, but your best interests are closer to the government's heart then they are to the heart of the corporations that are in control of internet access now.

  9. Re:Plea bargain on Hacker Faces 105 Years In Prison After Blackmailing 350+ Women · · Score: 1

    Pissing in bushes is considered a sex crime.

  10. Awesome! on New Threadlike Carbon Nanotube Fiber Unveiled · · Score: 5, Insightful

    When do we start building the space elevator?

  11. Re:Just pay the son on Dad Hires In-Game 'Assassins' To Get His Son To Stop Gaming · · Score: 2

    I think it works a little different in an MMO since they have to keep killing him over and over.

  12. Hottest years on record on 2012 Another Record-Setter For Weather, Fits Climate Forecasts · · Score: 1

    For how many years in a row, now, has each year been the hottest year on record?

  13. Re:Acronym usage on Providers of Free MOOCs Now Charge Employers For Access To Student Data · · Score: 1

    I thought it was a dumb guy in the 1930s or 40s.

  14. I just felt a tremble in the force on Disney Switching To Netflix For Exclusive Film Distribution · · Score: 1

    I think this will start working out well for Disney, and their execs will get the idea into their heads: "Wouldn't it be a whole lot easier if we just owned Netflix?"

  15. Re:God damn it on Congressional Committee Casts a Harsh Eye On Vaccination Science · · Score: 1

    Maybe not in the Congress, but thank the FSM for Bernie Sanders in the Senate.

    Don't you mean "Maybe not in the House"?

  16. God damn it on Congressional Committee Casts a Harsh Eye On Vaccination Science · · Score: 1

    I used to have respect for Kucinich, too.

    Isn't there anyone in Congress who has the people's best interest at heart AND has a brain in their head?

    The two traits are so uncommon in Congress that I suppose it would be wishful thinking to imagine that there was any overlap.

  17. Re:Quick... on Global Warming On Pace For 4 Degrees: World Bank Worried · · Score: 0, Troll

    Did you hear that on Rush Limbaugh? Because it isn't true. The last several years or so have EACH been the hottest year on record up until that point.

  18. Re:Quick... on Global Warming On Pace For 4 Degrees: World Bank Worried · · Score: 1
  19. Igor? on In UK, Twitter, Facebook Rants Land Some In Jail · · Score: 1

    People actually name their kids "Igor"?

  20. Re:But... on D&D Monster Study Proves Eyes Have It · · Score: 1

    "Anything that has a head, can be beheaded"

  21. But... on D&D Monster Study Proves Eyes Have It · · Score: 4, Informative

    But the head IS a giant eye.

  22. Animated gifs on What To Do With Those First Generation Photo Frames? · · Score: 1

    Can those things display animated gifs? Because they would be absolutely perfect for cinemagraphs.

  23. Re:Sure on Former Australian Cop Wants Jail For Internet Trolls · · Score: 1

    It's Australia. They're already on an island.

  24. I'm with Credo, which uses Sprint's network. They aren't the cheapest around, but they have good service and the biggest selling point is that they aren't evil. They give to a lot of progressive charities (in fact they give the option of rounding up your bill to the next dollar or five to donate) and they stood up to the government a few months back when they demanded customer information without a warrant (at least everyone was pretty sure it was Credo, the company was being kept secret but some people were able to narrow it down).

  25. The forced transparency movement will evolve on WikiLeaks Losing Support From Anonymous · · Score: 1

    Just as file sharing evolved to make it more and more difficult to track people, so will this movement evolve. Another organization will arise to take the place of WikiLeaks, and they will learn from WikiLeaks' mistakes. They won't make it about one person, and if their leadership (if they have one) is discovered and exposed, the reins will be passed to protect the cause.
