    Male G-spot?

    You're just missing out.

    Being gay /= "lifestyle choice", thats your first fuck up

    That is complete and utter bollocks, sorry.

    Homosexuality exists in nature. Deal with it.

    Congrats! Best of luck with the big day, sure it'll be fab :)

  5. Re:Detection on AT&T Cracking Down On Unofficial iPhone Tethering · · Score: 1

    I would imagine the iPhone just tells your operator you have put tethering on.
    It sounds about right for Apple

  6. Re:US on Man Arrested For Linking To Online Videos · · Score: 1

    totally incorrect. In fact without the massive amounts of spam generated by the US the net would be better off.

    Go dark, we'll be fine.

    (speaking as someone who works for a backbone provider...)

    Or you can be taken to court, have criminal proceedings brought against you and the directors put in jail.

    EULA /= EXPLICIT CONSENT.

    Guess what is required by the directive.

    Fabulous. At least I now:

    a) know you are wanting to load 12 trackers
    b) can decide whether you site is soooo critical to me I'm willing to load them.

    The answer to b is "unlikely" - great thing about the web, if you're doing it someone else probably is as well. I'll go there.

    Saynoto0870.com is your friend

  11. Re:How could it be wiretapping? on Leave a Message, Go To Jail · · Score: 1

    The same laws in that state specifically exempt telecoms equipment from the law.

  12. Re:Expectation of Privacy on Public Roads on Student Sues FBI For Planting GPS Tracker · · Score: 1

    Actually it isnt only nominally different: the ease with which this lets you track someone makes increased levels of surveillance possible, way over and above phsycial tailing.

    It is this extra degree which people have a rightful issue with.

  13. Re:So who is he really? on Student Sues FBI For Planting GPS Tracker · · Score: 4, Insightful

    And some Americans electrocute or gas their own citizens - so what?

    The US is singularly unable to assert any "moral highground" arguments.

  14. Re:Where is the goddamn data? on DHS Eyes Covert Body Scans · · Score: 1

    Would that be the report which has large portions of redacted material, and was not conducted on the same machines as those instaled in airports but on a different machine setup entirely?

    It's hardly an encouraging report.

  15. Re:We should end "permanent punishment" on 'Spam King' Released From Prison, Now Lives In Seattle · · Score: 1

    The UK has the rehabiliation of offenders legislation, which DOES mean you can, legally, not note any "spent" conviction even if someone asks for any and all.

    So a company that makes a bad bet and loses should be protected anyway?

  20. Re:Hotz is the good guy here on GeoHot Asks For Donations To Fight Sony · · Score: 1

    So when it was highlighted during their PS3 launch show that doesnt count as being advertised?

    I was saying it is not "voluntary" if you want to retain access to PSN; you cannot have both, which is what make it illegal - well, certainly in the EU

  21. Re:Not going to happen on UK Government Wants to Spring Ahead Two Hours · · Score: 1

    Yes, because time after work ends is inherently better than time before work; you can get more done. More hours of daylight when it is more useful makes more sense.

    The vast majority of people already commute (into London at any rate) before dawn in winter anyway, so it makes NO DIFFERENCE to them.

  22. Re:Not going to happen on UK Government Wants to Spring Ahead Two Hours · · Score: 1

    Or, possibly, like me: a company which has to visit other people, and so has to have people in when others are in. Which is normally 9 - 5

    OR a company whcih has to provide fixed hours of support, like my partners company. He leaves at 7pm and is in at 7am, so extra hours of daylight going home makes a lot of sense

  23. Re:Huh. on GeoHot Asks For Donations To Fight Sony · · Score: 1

    Nope. If you have legally reverse engineered / independently discovered their "secret", then tough for them

    The crypto key is not a trade secret. It was also legally obtained even if it were a trade secret.

    PS3 - not true since the fat PS3

    And, frankly - irrelevant. Sony took a gamble that you will buy X games / contrllers / etc in order to offset this initial subsidy.

    You are, however, under NO COMPUNCTION to do so. Unlike a contract for an iPhone.
    If you cat see the difference between a contract agreement for minium term service in exchange for a reduced rate and a simple retail transaction, I pity you.
