  1. Re:Removing malware == DMCA violation, the next st on EULAs For Malware · · Score: 1

    Or that princess chick from the Little Mermaid.

  2. Re:US jury system does it again on Hans Reiser Guilty of First Degree Murder · · Score: 1

    There are a good number of states where you can't even get a 2nd degree murder charge without a body.

    But coupled with no evidence and no eyewitness? There should have been no case. The AG who gave the prosecution the go ahead to prosecute this case was taking a big chance.

    Too bad it paid off, and it was the defendant who made it happen!

  3. Re:The 9000 Series has a perfect operational recor on Self-Healing Computers For NASA Spacecraft · · Score: 1

    It definitely feels good to be home, oh wait, you weren't talking to me. Hehe.

  4. Re:a long time ago on The Physics of Zero-G Whipped Cream · · Score: 1

    I was actually thinking of Never on a Sunday.

  5. Re:Higgs? on A New Family of High-Temperature Superconductors · · Score: 1

    Actually, it's not required to be considered a proper quote. Yeah, it can be abused to take things out of context, but RTFA.

  6. Re:Friday the 13th on Schoolboy Corrects NASA's Math On Killer Asteroid · · Score: 1

    Like Yellowstone.

  7. Re:This is great news.... on Sun May Begin Close Sourcing MySQL Features · · Score: 1

    I'm more interested in whether or not software like WordPress will switch over to Postgre if Sun is going to be an idiot. I know I'll no longer be using MySQL where I have the choice.

  8. Re:Discussed Organic Material in Meteor on Meteorites May Have Delivered Seeds of Life On Earth · · Score: 1

    I completely agree, and would like to go on to say that amino acids are fairly simple if you think about it. While not complex in themselves they lend themselves to building complex things by how they are organized. Like MrNaz asks, it's not how they got here or even how the acids formed in the first place, it's how we went from amino acids to life that's the real question. Once we can focus on that, then perhaps we'll start to find possible answers.

  9. Re:Scare tactics on UK Banking Law Blames Customers For Insecure OS · · Score: 1

    From what little was said in the article, it appears that it's saying that if the end user doesn't take reasonable measures on the client side of the system, the banks won't be responsible for losses incurred, which IMO is reasonable. If I didn't take precautions to safeguard my data and money, then it really is my fault if I lose it all. OTOH, it didn't say anything about banks not being responsible if they (the bank) got hacked.

  10. Re:in the perfect world... on Should IT Shops Let Users Manage Their Own PCs? · · Score: 1

    as long as no one touches my red Swingline, I don't care. :p

  11. Re:Hidden subject on U. Maine Law Students Trying To Shut RIAA Down · · Score: 1

    Er, at least, that's what I've been told. Yeah, that's it. I, uh, read it on line some place.

    Must've read it on /. in some users journal. ;)

  12. /. Effect on 500-fold Increase in Data Flow from SETI Telescope · · Score: 1

    So the SETI researchers purposely set out to essentially bog themselves down in data? Isn't this like purposely inviting all of /. to your blog in a vain attempt at hosing your hosting company's servers?

  13. Pope is an Idiot on Will the Pope Declare Google Evil? · · Score: 1

    I'm not surprised one bit. The death of John Paul II was a horrible tragedy, although one we knew was coming. This new pope, he sickens me to the core. The more I read about him, the less I like him.

    First he uses the homily at John Paul's funeral to decry "radical individualism" and now this? God wants us to give willingly to the poor and down trodden. Taxes are anything but a willing gift to such people (most of the money doesn't even go to them).

    For a supposedly intelligent man, he's got a lot to learn about the Bible, government, and economics.

  14. Re:Use a digital timestamping service on How Do I Secure An IP, While Leaving Options Open? · · Score: 3, Funny

    Maybe they mistook Slashdot for Google?

  15. Re:not that kind of cival war, anyway on Concern Over Creating Black Holes · · Score: 1

    Red Dawn was a documentary?

  16. Re:Uhh... on Modded DS Adds Hard Drive For Some Reason · · Score: 1

    I hope so, otherwise he didn't get his money's worth in that experiment.

  17. Re:That's great and all... on Computer Manages Restaurant Workers · · Score: 1

    I currently work at a Sonic drive in and I find it funny we don't use a touch screen. We have this huge freakin' keypad that has /everything/ on it. About 50 keys used in all, with about 20 more in reserve/not in use. That's why I stay in the kitchen. Order comes up on monitor, I make it, hand it to the expiditer, move on to next order.

    And I'm damn fast, too.

  18. Re:Single largest CO2 emitter in the world on Researchers Make Mount Etna Sing · · Score: 1

    How come the EPA hasn't fined Mt. Etna for CO2 pollution then?

    I love you.

  20. Re:Evidence, please. on EFF Sues AT&T Over NSA Wiretapping · · Score: 1

    He is definitely very adept at that, and at not saying anything at all.

  21. Re:Old news. on No Time Travel, Sorry · · Score: 1

    Then how do they explain what happened when Kirk commendeered a Bird of Prey and did a slingshot manuever around the sun (twice) to save the Earth from an intelligent probe?

  22. Re:Not really fair... on Another Look At Mozilla's BugFix Rate · · Score: 1

    Totally agree. Comparing a browser/email app bugfix rate to that of an integrated OS bugfix rate is rather disingenuous

  23. Re:Getting ahead of themselves on EFF Sues AT&T Over NSA Wiretapping · · Score: 1

    We don't need to, Bush himself has said they were warrant-less wiretaps!

    The Bill of Rights, 4th Amendment IIRC, protects us from "unwarranted search and seizure"

    So quit defending Shrub.
