  1. Re:Moved to opera on Firefox Was the Most Attacked & Exploited Browser At Pwn2own 2014 · · Score: 1

    Chrome doesn't render the fonts very well in W8, Opera looks perfect, I like it and I will continue to use it.

  2. Moved to opera on Firefox Was the Most Attacked & Exploited Browser At Pwn2own 2014 · · Score: 1

    Had the same problems with FF crashing, switched to Opera next, works great for me.

  3. Re:Rome on Facebook To Pay City $200K-a-Year For a Neighborhood Cop · · Score: 1

    because it was a long time ago?

  7. Re:More efficient! on 25% of Charter Schools Owe Their Soul To the Walmart Store · · Score: 1

    Learning outcomes could be profitable, the schools that teach the best will have more students and or be able to charge more.

  8. Re:Hackers are the new Rock Stars on Hacker Barnaby Jack Died of Drug Overdose · · Score: 1

    As some one that was heavily involved with drugs 20 years ago, I know for a fact that people that might rat, or owe too much money are sometimes given what is called a hotshot. The overdose kills them and the police don't really investigate- heck just another druggie ODing, why should they care. It is the perfect way to kill some one and get away with it.

  9. Brainwashed masses on Even After NSA Leaks, Government Still Trusted Over Private Firms · · Score: 0

    Just goes to show how effective the propaganda we are fed from birth is. We can't change the values that we were taught as right or wrong, and the government has programmed us to be little cheerleaders from cradle to grave. At least when a private corp screws us we have SOME legal recourse, when the government decides to fuck you, might as well bend over- unless you are very rich.

  10. Re:No dude... on Obamacare and Middle-Wheel-Wheelbarrows · · Score: 1

    I'm pretty sure they had 3 years to get the site going, of course in government terms that isn't enough time.

  13. Re:One more reason that such systems make no sense on 100% Failure Rate On University of Liberia's Admission Exam · · Score: 1

    In America, those exams would be considered racist.

  14. Re: Moral of the story on George Zimmerman Acquitted In Death of Trayvon Martin · · Score: 1

    Why yes, yes you could. Nothing illegal about following somebody- male or female. Might creep them out a little, but you are totally within your rights. Heck,what if I thought she had nice legs and just wanted to admire them for a few minutes.... is that a crime?

    As I am a musician, and sing Alto.. is it mandatory that I use this service?

    Yes, but unfortunately you first have to fly to Palo Alto, where you'll have to use this service on a Xerox Alto.

    While playing an alto sax the whole time.

  18. Re:Fuck Apple. on iPhone 5 Scorns Standards Promise To European Commission · · Score: 1

    My Hyundai actually does this too.

  19. I'm OK with the Mexican immigrants, it's the ILLEGAL immigrants that most Americans have a problem with. Maybe you haven't noticed, but we are borrowing 40% of the money we are spending right now. I feel sorry for the younger people growing now and to be born, they are getting saddled with a giant debt that will lower this countries standard of living for all but the very wealthy. I am pretty sure when they wrote the constitution, they weren't thinking about equal healthcare for all, citizen or not. I could be wrong, in any case.............. Just my opinion.
