  1. Re:In a just world, they'd expel every one of them on Harvard Students Move Fossil Fuel Stock Fight To Court · · Score: 3, Insightful

    No. The appropriate reaction is to toss the suit for lack of merit and standing. Then assign the court cost and the legal costs of the University to the students/plaintiffs.

    THat also has the added advantage of teaching the students about money.

  2. Cost on Harvard Students Move Fossil Fuel Stock Fight To Court · · Score: 1

    The University will ask for a JMOL, the judge will grant it.
    Then he will assign the costs to the students. Talk about student debt. Smart.

    Just more occupier mentaility.

  3. Re:Hmmm ... on Bicycle Bottle System Condenses Humidity From Air Into Drinkable Water · · Score: 1

    Considering their "one child" policy, why would a Chinese hospital invent this?

  4. I remember something about a package for Squeak called etoys.
    Also I was wondering if a HyperTalk clone like LiveCode would be useful.

    Sorry that should be HTML5 in the title not HTML.

  6. Can someone expolain what's so great about HTML? on HTML5: It's Already Everywhere, Even In Mobile · · Score: 5, Interesting

    My understanding is that it is still just HTML, but the way some people describe it, it sounds like the second coming of C.

    Not better then Borland was.

  9. Re:what? on Google's Lease of NASA Airfield Criticized By Consumer Group · · Score: 3, Insightful

    If as other posters claim, the government was paid more for the fuel then they paid for it, I would can it win-win.

  10. It's got to be asked. on OpenSUSE 13.2 Released · · Score: 2

    Systemd?

  11. Re:Media in the are for the Verdict on Ferguson No-Fly Zone Revealed As Anti-Media Tactic · · Score: 1

    Sigh. It is terrible seeing shitheads giving opinions on things they are ignorant of , like not knowing that grand juries don't return indictments, they return true bills/no bills.

  12. Fuck the romance... on Space Tourism Isn't Worth Dying For · · Score: 1

    Industrial workplace accidents happen all the time. Sometimes they are fatal. A trucker loses control and crashes, a welder falls off a skyscraper, a road paver doesn't wear the right type of mask and suffers severe lung damage, an electrical engineer at a power plant grabs the wrong thing and is electrocuted.

    OK a lot of injuries don't result in death but 8 injuries that effectively cause the person to lose 10 years are pretty much the equivalent of a life.

    We don't stop building skyscrapers, roads, bridges, using electricity. Get over it and grow up.

  13. Re:Anonymity? on Facebook Sets Up Shop On Tor · · Score: 1

    You mean the part of social media that requires your real name for registration?

  14. Re:How big a fuss is it, really? on How Apple Watch Is Really a Regression In Watchmaking · · Score: 1

    I take my watch off at the end of the day. I put it on in the morning. How big a difference is it to set it "on a charger on my nightstand", instead of just "on my nightstand?"

    Much ado about nothing.

    One more thing that I have to keep on my nightstand and make sure I don't accidentally unplug and is convienient enough for me to put my watch in.

    Even if you have to wind it,.you can wind it while watching the 10pm news, or having that evening snack or at your computer...
    The apple watch you have to plug at wherever you put the charger.

  18. Re:super user on Dangerous Vulnerability Fixed In Wget · · Score: 1

    Yes but, I would hope that an installation of openwrt is getting it's packages from a highly trusted source. If the source is using a bug to damage your system then you've got a lot more problems then wget.

    A vote of distribution developers, I believe at Redhat where systemd was writen the vote was overwhelming. At debian it was barely a majority. Don't know about SUSE. Certainly there was never a vote taken among users.

  21. For it! on The Airplane of the Future May Not Have Windows · · Score: 1

    I'm all for replacing all instances of Windows on a plane with Linux. It will significantly reduce the risk of the place crashing.

    Don't take them.
    I really don't care that the cops illegally copied them
    ( as Rhenquist and torrent users have said, "sharing" is nopt stealing ).
    If they don't exist the cosp can't steal them.

    Technically, I believe they charge for the upgrade.

    Though if they argue the software is free, it could open the door for legal hackintosh's.
