  1. Re:Will the market really sort itself out? on Net Neutrality, Schlocky Salesmen vs Monopolist Plumbers · · Score: 2, Insightful

    For every problem, there is usually a route around it waiting to be discovered.

    Of course, when you can go to jail for taking it thanks to monopoly influenced politics, there's not much point, and your "deductive" analogy then falls apart.

  2. Re:Interesting world we live in on Teen Sues MySpace Over Sexual Assault · · Score: 1

    If you want a taste of a society without the rule of law, go to Iraq for summer vacation.

    ...or you can just stay in america and join the black panthers, or express yourself outside the free speech zone, or become noticable to your local mafia or gangsters...

  3. Re:"In May, after a series of emails and phone cal on Teen Sues MySpace Over Sexual Assault · · Score: 1

    Where was her mother when she was getting ready for her "date"? What kind of mother teaches a 14-year-old girl that it's OK to meet strange guys?

    Probably the kind that slept around with the 19 year old studs when she was that age. They do exist, you know.

  4. I wouldn't go that far on Overly Sanitized Environments Lead to Poor Health? · · Score: 1

    I remember going to elmentary/highschool in westside Saskatoon with a couple people who were deathly ill to stuff like nuts, yet my school and their schools had no 'nut free' zones that I was aware of. Mabye these are a new development, but I think the kids who were so allergic just dealt with it, or got sick, or whatever. But it's not as if on the east side there are people who are so allergic, and on the west there isn't any, I just don't think on the westside anyone cares.

  5. Mod parent up on WSJ on CraigsList and Zen of Classified Ads · · Score: 1

    Honestly, with adblock, I'm completely surprised when I come to kuro5hin, slashdot and other sites on public computers. It's amazing the difference it makes sometimes.

  6. nothing to do with foreign policy on Labs Compete to Build New Nuclear Bomb · · Score: 1

    Actually, denmark had people in iraq, which would make you incorrect. However, you sir are totally ignorant if you think that denmark has no foreign policy.

  7. You havn't been paying attention on Labs Compete to Build New Nuclear Bomb · · Score: 1

    The amount of people threatening, suggesting and suggesting the enjoyment of genocide on slashdot and elsewhere on the american frequented internet sites these days is terrifying. I hope this isn't some sort of a sign. :S

    I read that as Shouldn't we focus on building cleaner, safer atomic weapons for civilian use?

  10. Re:My personal observations on Judging The Apple 'Sweatshop' Charge · · Score: 1

    The fact that those jobs are much, much better than the alternative (starving, prostitution) is beside the point.

    That isn't a fact. Especially when you're held at gunpoint to do those jobs.

  11. Excluding windows specific stuff on The Pornographers vs. The Pirates · · Score: 1

    I'd say Elli (NSFW!) has it done right. But that's just my opinion. Elli and her ilk could dominate the rest of the commercial industry. And god bless 'em.

  12. It's nice and all on Hands on: Google Spreadsheets · · Score: 1

    ...but virtually impossible to run under the bandwidth that I use. I applaud google for doing this, but we need bandwidth! What's the solution? Google starting to use some of that dark fibre they have to force local ISPs to actually have competition.

  13. And what on French PM Unreceptive To RMS · · Score: 2

    Exactly is wrong with "hippy slobs"? What makes you think that you can tell whether or not someone gives a crap by looking at them?

  14. Re:Lucky he wasn't shot... on French PM Unreceptive To RMS · · Score: 1

    Even outside of politics that isn't acceptable behaviour. How would you feel if you ran a business and as you left the office the CEO of another company was trying to convince you to sell your shares to him, following you about and such? ... That just isn't normal behaviour.

    And 150,000 of your shareholders have a written their names in support to demand change? I think you're missing a pretty big part in your analogy here. This is holding a supposedly democratic head of state to the will of his own people.

    Irrelevant. That picture, if it's interesting, will find its way online, whether you want it to or not.

    Easy to think that way at the top, isn't it? Here's a hint: for every one of you who makes it there is a bunch of others who don't. You could easily have been one of them, but you lucked out.

  20. Re:Instant gratification on Psychopharm Going 'Mainstream' In Schools? · · Score: 1

    You could probably get the same results with a little time management and hard-work. However nowadays there is the prominent attitude that you don't have to work hard for a long amount of time to get the results you want.

    Imagine what the results could be if you were to work hard, manage your time efficiently *and* use performance enhancing drugs such as modaffonil or caffeine!!

  21. I'm sorry on Psychopharm Going 'Mainstream' In Schools? · · Score: 1

    but life isn't sustainable. The laws of thermodynamics forbid it. You will die, your body will grow old. It's only a matter of when, and what you can accomplish in the time you have, and how you choose to live your life.

    If someone wants to change the world, but lose their mind and die at 25, drugs might just be the option that they are looking for.

  22. Re:Just Say No To The Drugs... on Psychopharm Going 'Mainstream' In Schools? · · Score: 1

    have you seen what meth does to people?
    Have you seen what kind of lives people who do meth have to look forward to assuming they didn't do meth? For a lot of people, life sucks, and it's not surprising they turn to drugs.

  23. Re:Depends on the job surely? on More Warnings Against Oversharing on MySpace · · Score: 1

    Part of being 'the new net savvy' might include not blatting out all details of your life on web pages as if anybody cared (the wrong person might 'care' sometime in the future).

    What do you have to hide?

  24. Re:elpapacito, may introduce The Real World on More Warnings Against Oversharing on MySpace · · Score: 1

    That no women does this suggests to me women ain't paranoid enough and I would never hire any person as a system administrator who isn't 100% paranoid.
    I'm sorry but nobody is 100% paranoid. 99% perhaps, 99.99% on a good day, but not 100%. Even at 99.999999% you're going to be paying through the roof.

    If you look at all those pics of girls caught naked circulating in your email don't you notice how rare it is to see the guy, even if he is in the pic great care has usually been taken to obscure the face.
    Or mabye you're just not getting those emails?
