  1. That'd be awesome! Run a few raids, pay for my driver's license renewal!

  2. ...to find out who satoshi nakamoto is.

  3. Good on ICANN: We Won't Pass Judgment On Pirate Sites (torrentfreak.com) · · Score: 4, Informative

    That sounds tantamount to having a car dealership monitor your driving history, and repossessing the car if you use it to rob a bank.

  4. Facebook IDs are part of a voting record?

  5. Oh, the irony.... on The Solution To Argentina's Banking Problems Is To Go Cashless · · Score: 1

    Using Bitcoin can "help curb black market exchanges, fight corruption and restore the country's image."

  6. Hehehehehe... on Most Powerful Geomagnetic Storm of Solar Cycle 24 Is Happening · · Score: 2

    'coronal mass ejection' is now my new favorite innuendo.

  7. Re:So they gonna remove the BS? on Apple Reportedly Working On an Online TV Service · · Score: 1

    ...and when they look up at us and ask why, why did we pirate the shows, we'll look down at then and whisper:

    torrent shows asscrack roffles

  8. Coming Soon: Windows Goodbye on Windows 10's Biometric Security Layer Introduced · · Score: 1

    ...and for the uber-security concious, the bio-readers will contain a small blowdart laced with Anthrax/SARS/poop/whatever. If the wrong person tries to log into your device, PFFT! Poop in the eye!

  9. Re:Steve Jobs WAS handicapped, moron. on $56,000 Speeding Ticket Issued Under Finland's System of Fines Based On Income · · Score: 1

    His crime was parking in a handicapped spot *without approved signage*. If he didn't want his medical affairs out in the open, he should have parked in a normal spot instead of doing like Wesley "laws don't apply to me" Snipes.

  10. Considering that the fallout from the KoA debacle is *still* being felt.... yes. Yes, it is.

  11. Re:Everyone back up a step... on Ubisoft Revokes Digital Keys For Games Purchased Via Unauthorised Retailers · · Score: 2

    ...But to follow along applying your example to this situation, the police don't reclaim the watch; people from Rolex come knocking on your door. Who would agree to that?

  12. Stay Tuned... on The NSA Uses the Same Chat Protocol As Hackers · · Score: 1

    ...for the next exciting article, "Cops Use Guns Too!"

  13. Great... on Amazon "Suppresses" Book With Too Many Hyphens · · Score: 1

    There goes my idea to self-publish "The Complete Works of Edgar Allan Poe in Morse Code".

  14. Re:If I were SONY... on Sony Employees Receive Email Threat From Hackers: 'Your Family Will Be In Danger · · Score: 2

    Yes, because corporate-funded (cyber-)terrorism against a soveriegn nation has *no* potential down sides, right? ( :

  15. hm. on Gilbert, AZ Censors Biology Books the Old-Fashioned Way · · Score: 5, Insightful

    om the original article:
    “I’m Catholic; we do not contracept,” Ms. Smith said. “It is a grave sin.” By including those pages in the curriculum, she added, “you have violated my religious rights.”

    “I’m American; we do not censor education,” vomitology said. “It is a grave sin.” By removing those pages in the curriculum, he added, “you have violated children's educational rights.”

    FTFY

  16. Cue the music... on EFF Hints At Lawsuit Against Verizon For Its Stealth Cookies · · Score: 2

    They'll fight for freedom,
    wherever there's trouble,
    EFF is there!


    EFF! A Real Internet Hero...

  17. Free Windows? on Italian Supreme Court Bans the 'Microsoft Tax' · · Score: 1

    I may have missed in in the article, but is there any provision that states the OS has to be removed or disbled? If not, what's to keep someone from buying a PC and saying "Gimmie mah lira!" while still using the pre-installed OS?

  18. Re:Is it open source yet? on BitTorrent Performance Test: Sync Is Faster Than Google Drive, OneDrive, Dropbox · · Score: 0, Troll

    That whole 'if it's not FOSS I can't trust it' line is mostly bull. Unless you know how to de-compile the code and eye read it, it doesn't matter *what* the license is, you still have to trust that whoever wrote it does what it says it does, and nothing more. And if you can, well... carry on. ( :

  19. Re:Sounds great... on CEO of Spyware Maker Arrested For Enabling Stalkers · · Score: 5, Informative

    Depends on where they are. In many states, it's legal as long as one party is aware the call is being recorded.

  20. So.... on Wiring Programmers To Prevent Buggy Code · · Score: 1

    The source of most mistakes (coding or otherwise) beyond sheer lack of knowledge is usually not being focused on the task at hand. So to help you focus on the keyboard, we'll be hooking you up to basically what amounts to a modified lie detector! It's brilliant!

  21. Interesting! on Silent Circle's Blackphone Exploited at Def Con · · Score: 1

    Company says something is 'secure', gets proven wrong. This is *exciting stuff*, people!

  22. Missed Opportunity on Inside BitFury's 20 Megawatt Bitcoin Mine · · Score: 1

    They should be thinking bigger... imagine how much WoW gold you could farm with that! ( :

  23. Re:It begins to make sense on Cable Companies: We're Afraid Netflix Will Demand Payment From ISPs · · Score: 1

    Thongs that really matter can drive *anyone* into a frenzy? Have we learned nothing from Sisqo?

  24. My new Dream Job on Asteroid Mining Bill Introduced In Congress To Protect Private Property Rights · · Score: 1

    ...developing backronyms for governmental agencies.

  25. Security Through Antiquity on Use of Encryption Foiled the Cops a Record 9 Times In 2013 · · Score: 1
