  1. News from the home of the brave and the land of th on US Lawmakers Want Sanctions On Any Country Taking In Snowden · · Score: -1

    You can keep your freedom for as long as your mouth is kept shut and you don't think

  2. Ops! on A Humanoid Robot Named "Baxter" Could Revive US Manufacturing · · Score: -1

    Baxter, if good enough, could give other countries cheap manufacturers a run for their money, but short of the jobs used in creating the first few "Baxter" machines, will not create much more. I can imagine Baxters manufacturing and maintaining more Baxters, and not increaing the amount of people employed at all.

  3. For only $50.00 on Meet "Ophelia," Dell's Plan To Reinvent Itself · · Score: -1

    I'm sure they are planning on making money some other way. Mining for information for starters!

  4. Re:Looks like they want it to have a future on Microsoft's SmartGlass For Android Reviewed · · Score: -1, Funny

    It is quite possible that in order to release it to the Windoze phone, they would have to write sixty million lines of code instead of ajust a few hunderd. Also, the app would take two hours to load and upon startying would crash the phone

  5. Singer? on Singer Reportedly Outbids NASA for Space Tourist's Seat · · Score: -1

    Hope she goes up singing "Come fly with me"

  6. Re:So I suppose Obama on US Military Designates Julian Assange an "Enemy of State" · · Score: -1

    Since when is telling the truth a war crime or a terrorist act? How is telling the truth worst than having the blood thirsty crew of a helicopter gunship killing unarmed civilians? We know that thanks to Julian Assange and WikiLeaks. If you see anything criminal on that, your idea of crime, terrorist, truth and decency are very different from mine.

  7. Re:So the google gay marriage campaign...? on Google Gets Into Politics With Civic Info API · · Score: -1

    I hope it does not get to any other countries. The rest of the world loves real democracy. No the US sugar coated plutocracy disguised as poepels government.

  8. upsss.... on Google Gets Into Politics With Civic Info API · · Score: 0

    Is that going to be more accurate than the voting machines? And what will happen if there is a discrepancy?

    I hate spell checkers!

  11. Re:Need some proof on Apple Denies FBI Had Access To UDIDs · · Score: -1

    “It's possible but unlikely that both Apple and the FBI are outright lying about the source”. I’m flabbergasted by your nativity

  12. Re:what if i wanna take it apart? on Social Robots May Gain Legal Rights, Says MIT Researcher · · Score: -1

    My car has feelings and I love him. I also love my PC that has a nice linux soul and my microwave opven and my bicycle. They should all have rights! Right to be used for spare parts ionce I'm done with them!

  13. Legal action? on Social Robots May Gain Legal Rights, Says MIT Researcher · · Score: -1

    I see machines made by this company http://www.motoshot.com/ going to court. They are "Target shooting robots"

  14. Follow Darwin.... on US Doctors Back Circumcision · · Score: -1

    The foreskin is product of evolution, if someone dies as consequence of having it, we can certainly deduce that it is a weak specimen of the human race that under normal circumstances should have not been able to reach age of reproduction. Removing that kind of “risk” only allows for the perpetuation of “inferior” specimens and it is therefore detrimental to mankind.

    Didn't Obama say that would close the concentration camp in Guantanamo Bay?

  18. Re:Short answer: No on Should Developers Be Sued For Security Holes? · · Score: -1

    I use open source. It has a much smaller number of bugs than propietary software and when they are found, they are fixed much faster.

  19. Re:Short answer: No on Should Developers Be Sued For Security Holes? · · Score: -1

    If you are paying for goods or service, that price should include some form of warranty. I find rather pathetic that it costs lots of money to get an office suite from some suppliers when there is several superior packages avalable for free.

  20. Octal on Cheap Four-fingered Robot Hand Edges Closer To Human Dexterity · · Score: -1

    We use a decimal system because wwe have ten fingers (Allegedly). Would a robot fitted with that hand default to octal?

  21. I beg your pardon? on Linux Is a Lemon On the Retina MacBook Pro · · Score: -1

    So, if a hardware manufacturer produces a device so that does not work well with third party operating systems, you are placing the blame on the third party operating system rather than the hardware manufacturer? That seems to be an unreasonably biased point of view.

  22. I guess they have exacly the same rights they were excercising when they help the US invade Iraq with no logal reasons nor UN mandate. WE HAVE BIGGER GUNS.

    To whoever posted this note, thanks. That moderation reflects the fact that moderators are just people that have been given the privilege of moderating based on their status. Their status is based on the opinions of other moderators, which in turn had their moderator privilege granted based on the same status. The privilege of moderation is therefore just a vicious circle where majority rules, wether majority could be either right or wrong, but more often than not, due to lack of actual knowledge wrong. If this were an academic organization, moderation would actually be based in knowledge and an analytical point of view rather than just emotions. I can just assume that this moderator thinks highly of an organization that is nothing more than a high tech gossip enabler. Also, I bet I’ll be moderated -10 for this.
