  1. Re:new Steve Jobs on Is Bill Gates the Cure For What Ails Microsoft? · · Score: 2, Funny

    Does that mean they'll soon need Apple to save their collective asses?

  2. Well ... on Linus Renames 2.6.40 Kernel To Linux 3.0, Announces Release Candidate · · Score: 0

    Shouldn't a kernel which jumps to 3.x contain something groundbreaking to warrant more than a 0.1 increase?

  3. Re:for a project that size on Arrest In $740M NYC Time and Attendance System Case · · Score: 4, Funny

    Some dude named Upgrayedd???

  4. Re:And iPhone 5 will look like on Samsung Wants To See iPhone 5 and iPad 3 · · Score: 0

    Somebody probably outsourced his trolling to India.

  5. Well ... on Japan's MagLev Gets Go Ahead · · Score: 1

    Let's hope it won't become a horrendously overpriced money pit like the German Transrapid.

  6. Re:Off topic but... on Discovery of Water In Moon May Alter Origin Theory · · Score: 1, Funny

    At least it's not an entry on the Fox News website.

  7. Re:Hey, maybe we can finally ask on Duplicate RSA Keys Enable Lockheed Martin Network Intrusion · · Score: 1

    Depends on whether they served chili in the officers mess.

  8. Re:steady as she goes on KDE 4.7 – a First Look At Beta 1 · · Score: 1

    At least KDE doesn't force you to use some damn tablet mode if you don't want to.

    And that's coming from someone who has preferred Gnome over KDE since the days Gnome became mature enough to be an alternate option.

  9. Re:Goodbye thepiratebay.org on US Senate Committee Passes PROTECT IP Act · · Score: 1

    It's just the first step. Stuff on a deeper level (similar to PeerBlock) or even encrypted tunneling are bound to become mainstream if they keep up crap like this.

  10. Re:Goodbye thepiratebay.org on US Senate Committee Passes PROTECT IP Act · · Score: 2

    Easy. Just adapt this addon for Chrome, wait until they try to do the same to Google and don't forget to keep plenty of popcorn within reach.

  11. Re:Funny on US Senate Committee Passes PROTECT IP Act · · Score: 3, Funny

    Sponsored by the Ministry of Truth (tm).

  12. Re:Bill Stuck In Senate Plumbing on US Senate Committee Passes PROTECT IP Act · · Score: 4, Funny

    A politician who acts based on common sense???

    I get the feeling this 2012 armageddon stuff isn't completely bogus after all.

  13. Re:Goodbye thepiratebay.org on US Senate Committee Passes PROTECT IP Act · · Score: 4, Informative

    There's a reason why we have addons like https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/mafiaafire-redirector/ to automate that process.

  14. Re:Pull the damn cables already! on Sony Suffers Yet More Security Breaches · · Score: 1

    They're probably doing the best they can but their online projects seem to be maintained by descendants of the Keystone Kops.

  15. Re:Well on The Petition to Classify Wikipedia a "World Wonder" · · Score: 1

    It's a pile of more assholes than Capitol Hill. If that isn't worth an award what is?

  16. Re:Pull the damn cables already! on Sony Suffers Yet More Security Breaches · · Score: 3, Insightful

    I get the impression they're not even trying anymore.

  17. Re:Shut up with the bitcoin stories on Increased Power Usage Leads to Mistaken Pot Busts for Bitcoin Miners · · Score: 1

    True, it's much better to have the FBI leave a trail of destruction in your house because you're running a Tor exit node.

  18. Re:Ohio is in the US [Re:One more nail] on Increased Power Usage Leads to Mistaken Pot Busts for Bitcoin Miners · · Score: 1

    Nuke the entire site from orbit?

  19. Re:correlation here? on Duke Nukem Forever Goes Gold · · Score: -1, Flamebait

    Never cared about that fantasy stuff. Why should I waste money on the 50th lame clone of Lord of the Rings and similar stuff where guys in their mom's basement play indestructible sorcerers while wearing an old bed sheet on their head?

  20. Re:Obligatory: on The Spin of a Star Reveals Its Age · · Score: 1

    Imagine the readings they must get from Zsa Zsa Gabor.

  21. Well ... on Fedora 15 Released · · Score: 1

    Might be interesting to see how systemd will work out in something other than Arch and Debian (unstable).

  22. Really? on Major Release of Miro Aims to Compete With iTunes · · Score: 1

    Did it change that much?

    Last time I tried Miro it was such a waste of time it didn't survive more than 10 minutes on my harddisk.

  23. Re:correlation here? on Duke Nukem Forever Goes Gold · · Score: 1

    Who?

    Guess that's great news to the three people who might know that name.

    Duke Nukem Forever, Linux 3.0, HURD 1.0???

    It's true. these things always come in threes.
    Guess it's time to stock up on ammo.

  25. Re:*puke* on Mandatory Automotive Black Boxes May Be On the Way · · Score: 2

    Remove the battery when needed and the tracker is inactive. You'd need an induction-based approach or add redundant system which charges its own battery from the main battery to keep the tracking ability alive. And you can simply deposit a phone somewhere in order to cheat the system. But try to detach your ass ...
