  1. it's much easier to burn 2 copies of everything on Up To 10% of CD-Rs Fail Within a Few Years · · Score: 1

    one "archive", which you don't touch. one "for use", which you touch and use. If that one goes bad, re-dump it to your harddrive and burn another archive... Or, alternately, simply throw it in the burn workflow for another 2 burns.

  2. 99 percent of drug arrests are at the state level on UK Police Raid Party After Seeing "All-Night" Tag On Facebook · · Score: 1

    Does your Department Of Justice, a federal department, include state money spent? Inquiring minds want to know. I want to know.

  3. so basically on HIV/AIDS Vaccine To Begin Phase I Human Trials · · Score: 1

    So basically, you get to cherry pick and selectively believe what you want from a book that was supposedly written by an all-knowing God? Hell, I could probably cherry pick stuff out of Scientology and end up with a sane set of beliefs. But I'd still be a mislead sheep.

  4. Hawking is both right and wrong on Hawking Says Humans Have Entered a New Stage of Evolution · · Score: 1

    We are past natural selection, and soon will be mucking with our own genetic code, which will be our [possibly] final stage of evolution. Thus, I came up with the Darwin-ClintJCL Universal Evolution Theory, which applies to all sentient species that reach technological maturity.

  5. Except nothing was published. on Tennesee Man Charged In "Virtual Pornography" Case · · Score: 1

    ...so you're full of shit. QED.

  6. informed consent? huh? on Tennesee Man Charged In "Virtual Pornography" Case · · Score: 1

    Assuming I have it -- I can take your picture and paste it on whatever the fuck I want, with or without your consent, at any time, in the privacy of my home. And there's not a goddamn thing you can do about it even if you know about it. Nobody has rights to say what can be done with a picture of them like that. There IS no age of informed consent for such acts. Total moron argument.

    your moderation would have been rolled back! ;)

  8. i totally agree with your sentiment on Homeland Security To Scan Citizens Exiting US · · Score: 1, Offtopic

    ...But I have to ask, is it really true that we're the only one to erect barriers to who can leave? North Korea? China? Hello?

  9. Huh? what are you talking about? on Painting The World's Roofs White Could Slow Climate Change · · Score: 3, Informative

    There's snow on my roof perhaps 2 weeks tops during the winter. But I have to run my heat for over 6 months of the year. I topped 5000kwh on a 2500 sq ft house at a cost of $450 this december. Nice try, but...

  10. now that's just dumb on Right-to-Repair Law To Get DRM Out of Your Car · · Score: 1, Offtopic
    You're going to blame the 500 people who voted independent, while ignoring the millions who voted republican? As if those 500 votes somehow counted more? Nope. You should look to the 120,000 democrats who voted for Bush in florida. Every Nader vote could have gone to Gore, but the Democrats who voted Republican still would have fucked up up. and you know why? Because they're paying to the 2-party "system". (Which doesn't actually exist, because THERE WERE MORE THAN 2 PARTIES ON THE BALLOT!)

    Ironically, the mentality you are carrying today in 2009 is far more responsible for what happened in 2000, than those who have gotten past your mentality. YOUR mentality is what held us back in 2000.

  11. YOUR POST IS TOTALLY POINTLESS on Rotten Office Fridge Cleanup Sends 7 To Hospital · · Score: 1
    The person cleaning the fridge was unaffected. Did her allergies give her superman lungs that don't react to chlorine? Jeeze.

    Great chemistry lesson, though!

    3) So if I punch you in the face every 5 seconds 20 times, that 21st time you're not going to expect it because something in the past is nothing but wild speculation about the future?

  14. feh on R.I.P. MS-DEBUG 1981 - 2009 · · Score: 4, Interesting
    bad move. debug.exe was the only way i could recover a harddrive that had a messed up partition table. No, neither fdisk nor the linux equivalent could fix it, not even with a full low-level format. only debug.exe. It was a damned weird situation. Linux lied and said it was fixed; Fdisk told the truth and said it couldn't fix it. Debug worked tho!!

    It's not like it hurts by sitting there on the harddrive, taking up a whopping 28K (or however big it is)....

  15. anonymous coward = made up story on Senator Arlen Specter Becomes a Democrat · · Score: 1

    You obviously have no idea what american health care costs are. Nor did you even specify how the son got hurt.

  16. and yet, their drivers still suck on A $99 Graphics Card Might Be All You Need · · Score: 2, Insightful

    I've been TV-out'ing with ATI cards non-stop since 1995. My Sharp Aquos 52-inch HDTV? The one I'm typing on? *STILL* does not register 1080p mode unless I use PowerStrip and some advanced timings that some other person figured out for me. Yay monthly driver releases. They don't mean jack. I've never used a non-ATI card, but I think it's ridiculous to say that monthly driver releases fix their issues. I know someone else with an nVidea card and *almost* my same TV (Sharp Aquos 42inch instead of 52inch) and he has none of these problems.

  20. actually, if you read the circumstance of the McD on South Park Creators Given Signed Photo of Saddam Hussein · · Score: 1

    actually, if you read the circumstance of the McDonald's lawsuit, it was quite proper for her to win it. It's typically used as a poster child for tort reform, but no. Look it up yourself. McDonald's knew what they were doing, had injured tons of people, and refused to pay her $10K medical bills. The judge increased the sentence IIRC, to teach them a lesson they needed to be taught. It was in the public interest. But don't believe me -- look it up yourself.

  21. wow on South Park Creators Given Signed Photo of Saddam Hussein · · Score: 1

  23. A naive approach. on Mississippi Passes Law To Ban Traffic Light Cameras · · Score: 2, Interesting

    That may work logistically, but it wouldn't work in reality. Most people will just pay a ticket, even if innocent. In the end, you would have to take this to court, miss work, pay a lawyer. People aren't going to do that. And the alternative is to have the government police itself, which, if you have any grasp on reality, you would know is utterly futile. :)

  24. Pull your head out of the fucking sand, Quantos. on The Coming Censorship Wars · · Score: 1
    Quantos said, "I don't think that it's possible to sue a stack of cash, no matter how big it is."

    What a fucking idiot, Quantos. This has been going on for DECADES, so stop spewing your bullshit propaganda. That's how civil asset forfeiture works. Read this and learn something, dumbshit: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Asset_forfeiture#Asset_forfeiture_in_the_United_States. And I quote: "In civil forfeiture cases, the US Government sues the item of property, not the person". You want some other examples? HERE. Or maybe you could google it yourself instead of spewing mis-informative bullshit propaganda? Take your head out of the fucking sand!

    At least you know we're the top incinerator. I give you props for that much, at least.

  25. What's wrong with you Quantos? on The Coming Censorship Wars · · Score: 1
    Have you been reading the news, oh, say, anytime in the last 15 years? Not everyone has access to a lawyer. If you are arrested, they typically wont give you a lawyer if you ask for one. You'll sit in jail overnight without seeing a lawyer. You get one for a trial. And then you look at those put in Gauntanimo, and people like Jose Padilla -- in prison for 5+ yrs. He eventually got a lawyer, but never got to, oh, MEET him. It would be very easy for you to investigate reality and realize the person you were responding to was dead right, but instead you spew bullshit.

    Jose Padilla didn't even get to meet his lawyers for TWO years. He is an American Citizen, and what was done to him can be done to anybody. The executive has asserted their power. All they have to do is say you did something. Even if you didn't. (Note that they dropped all the original "dirty bomb" charges against him. They could just as easily say YOU were planning a dirty bomb.)
