    Give him a break, I mean he is canadian.

  2. Doesn't the fact that everyone has been doing this on Company Awarded "The Patent For Podcasting" · · Score: 1

    Negate the patent for being obvious and not inventive.

  3. Re:The glaciers are retreating! on Formerly Classified Global Warming Spy Photos Released · · Score: 1

    Nice non-biased news source you have found there.

  4. Re:For Shits and Giggles on 26 Years Old and Can't Write In Cursive · · Score: 1

    Who am I kidding they always suck, but at least I know they suck.

  5. Re:For Shits and Giggles on 26 Years Old and Can't Write In Cursive · · Score: 1

    Not only that my capitalization and my grammar sucks after a decent amount of vodka

  6. For Shits and Giggles on 26 Years Old and Can't Write In Cursive · · Score: 1

    I give you this to chew on.

    When I was young I took handwriting classes, now granted my handwriting was crap, and I was issues a special pen with a spring metal brace to help me hold the pen "correctly". yet throughout high school we had to hand in typed papers. So why did I spend so much time learning to "write".

    PS My handwriting still sucks

  7. Re:Eh on Wells Fargo Bank Sues Itself · · Score: 1

    No, in-fighting happened all the time, murders and bullying were rampant. Think of what we see now on a smaller scale. It works, it's just not efficient and it wastes valuable resources.

  8. Re:Correction on Stallman Says Pirate Party Hurts Free Software · · Score: 1

    Honestly, If I release it to the public domain why should I care if some uses it for their own purpose. It's there for anyone to use for any purpose. My question to everyone is this, if you are really serious about "free as in speech", then you must defend every use however abhorrent and trust the ethics of the person using you creation.

    Even the BSD license is to restrictive for Free Speech

  9. So Apple is on our side this time on Google Latitude Arrives For the iPhone — As a Web App · · Score: 0, Troll

    Latitude is one of the most privacy invasive apps that exists. You know something that keeps tabs of your location constantly. Apple is just making sure you actually want people to know where you are.

  10. Re:Correction on Stallman Says Pirate Party Hurts Free Software · · Score: 2, Interesting

    I call bullshit that copyright is required for FOSS to exist, it is required for GPL but not open-source. All GPL is open-source but not all open-source is GPL. The most free definition of open-source would be public domain. Unfortunately in the good ole US of A it is nearly impossible to get anything in the public domain anymore.

  11. Re:so? on UK ISP Disconnects Customers For File Sharing · · Score: 1

    Nice reading comprehension.
    > Karoo is the only ISP in the area.
    How do they switch when there is only one choice.

  12. Re:The Pirate Bay captains... on Pirate Bay's Anonymity Service Enters Beta Testing · · Score: 1

    wait did the sale actually go through? last I heard the buyers may be backing out.

  13. Re:Halfway Competent on Undercover Cameras Catch PC Repair Scams, Privacy Violations · · Score: 0

    are youo sure about that, because I bet he just filled the power steering fluid. That could cause vibration and stiff steering but No low brake fluid will not cause your steering to tighten up.

  14. Re:Who downloads music on Music Industry Wants a Cut of Pirate Bay Sale · · Score: 1

    great, now instead of buying an album for one or two songs, now I have to get an artists entire collection. I prefer an ala carte system where i don't fill my library with crap.

  15. Re:/boggle on Ireland Criminalizes Blasphemy · · Score: 1

    really just now? you know, setting off car bombs in england, injuring and killing innocent people pretty much did it for me decades ago.

  16. Re:sovereignty on Belgium Tries to Fine Yahoo for Protecting US User Privacy · · Score: 1

    Dude, I think your tinfoil hat is on too tight

  17. Who downloads music on Music Industry Wants a Cut of Pirate Bay Sale · · Score: 1

    WTF but why would you bother with bittorrent for mp3's. It makes more sense that the movie industry would want a cut, or even the software industry. I mean really what's the use of using torrents for 5 meg files.

  18. Re:Thanks America! on Australian Website Bans ... Australians · · Score: 1

    Now now Mr. Gibson

  19. Re:NcSoft is a Microsoft Shill on Aion Shaping Up For US Launch · · Score: 1

    Actually it doesn't, if you look at the contents of the CoH app it is actually the windows client running in transgaming's wine.

  20. Re:Eh on Wells Fargo Bank Sues Itself · · Score: 1

    What part of human history suggests we are capable of governing ourselves with common sense.

  21. Re:Perhaps they mean skinnyband on Microsoft To Offer Windows 7 On USB Thumb Drives? · · Score: 1

    re: You'll know HDTV has become mainstream once HDTVs are in pawn shops.

    I work for a pawn shop and we have several in hock, and have sold many more. I think its there by your standard.

  22. Re:nice mockups... on Arrington's Web Tablet Nearly Ready For Launch? · · Score: 1

    Or they used the zoom function in almost every browser to fit the page to the screen

  23. Re:Sounds good... on Download Taxes As a Weapon Against File-Sharing · · Score: 1

    Anytime you receive something of value you usually are required to pay taxes on it regardless of how you acquired it, and no, you do not get to assign the value.

  24. Re:Whatever on Texas Vote May Challenge Teaching of Evolution · · Score: 1

    I have one which is why I haven't finished the final season yet. And to those claiming bittorrent, why do have to break the law, instead why don't you show some fucking common courtesy.

  25. Re:No connection between lost revenue and Torrents on Wife of Harried Pirate Bay Witness Gets Buried in Internet Love · · Score: 1

    I'm not sure that would be illegal as long as you never sold it
