  1. Re:We Need another woman.... on Justice O'Connor Retiring · · Score: 0

    She's the Boss applesauce!

  2. Sour grapes make the best whine. on Justice O'Connor Retiring · · Score: 1

    Another Sore Loserman.

  3. Re:Good Riddance. on Justice O'Connor Retiring · · Score: 1

    Perhaps you should try reading the opinions?

    If she had acknowledged that she was changing her view that punishing people for being white could only be done where there exists a compelling governmental interest and with the least restrictive means, ie "strict scrutiny" (Adarand), then you might be able to excuse her.

    Instead, in Bollinger, she states that she's applying strict scrutiny, then she applies an ordinary scrutiny test.

    It's just bad jurisprudence. As I said, good riddance.

  4. Good Riddance. on Justice O'Connor Retiring · · Score: -1, Troll

    The woman was senile. Read her opinions on the affirmative action cases and see her do a total flip-flop within a few years.

  5. Go cry to Kofi Annan. on ICANN Won't Get DNS Root Servers · · Score: 2, Interesting

    The Internets are a strategic resource of the United States. As an American, it would be swell if France just gave away its wine, South Africa its diamonds, or Saudi Arabia its oil. However, the Internets are ours. If you don't like it, compete with us and create your own, but don't whine that we won't just give it away.

  6. Did you see Crapistan in that list? on 11-Nation Raid on Net Pirates · · Score: 1

    I'm sure if OBL regularly seeded jihad material it would be much easier to find him.

  7. And no Sweden. Pirate Bay still all good. on 11-Nation Raid on Net Pirates · · Score: 1

    At least until the new Swedish law goes into effect tomorrow.

  8. Exchange vs. Domio on The BlackBerry Infringing on Other Technologies? · · Score: 1

    We are in the midst of converting from Exchange to Outlook and I would suggest that the reason for the varying opinions lies in the different email servers. Exchange/Outlook with BB worked pretty smoothly, Domino/Notes with BB has been a pain.

  9. Valid issue, No standing. on Google Sued Over Click Fraud · · Score: 2, Informative

    First, since this company isn't an actual customer my guess is that their suit will be thrown out for lack of standing.

    However, there is a valid issue here. I would guess that Google is responsible for two things. 1 Notifying customers when they detected a non-trivial amount of fraud. 2 To make a good faith effort to combat this fraud.

    Failure to perform either of these could open up Google to some amount of liability.

  10. Who cares about Greenpeace? on France Will Be Home To Fusion Plant · · Score: 1

    Other than a few Europeons and the fruits and nuts of California, does anyone take this group of Luddites seriously?

  11. What Lame Questions. on Wil Wheaton Strikes Back · · Score: 1

    The most important one is what was it like to kiss Ensign Robin Leffler, aka Ashley Judd?

  12. Hardware or Software? on What is the Best Firewall for Servers? · · Score: 2, Insightful

    I'd say keep the firewall software off of your Server. Get a decent hardware one from Checkpoint.

  13. Uh no. on Supreme Court Rules Private Property Can be Seized · · Score: 1

    What you are really complaining about is that she is not a rigid ideological zealot

    No. I am not complaining about anything. I am merely pointing out that on at least one major issue, affirmative action, she has made completely contradictory arguments just a few years apart. I think that justifies the moniker "waffler".

  14. The Opinion is now online. on Supreme Court Rules against Grokster · · Score: 1
  15. When will we get free DUN via USB? on Treo 650 Hacked: Dial-Up Networking via Bluetooth · · Score: 1

    That would be much cooler.

  16. Might I suggest.... on Better Test Pages for Color Printers? · · Score: 0
  17. myopic and simplistic on Supreme Court Rules Private Property Can be Seized · · Score: 1

    your myopic and simplistic world

    Come on. I was trying to provide a handy reference for those who don't follow the opinions of the Supreme Court judges. Furthermore, O'Connor is without a doubt a waffler. Look at her language in the affirmative action cases. She has no problem with making totally contradictory arguments just a few years apart. But I'm sure you're aware of this.

  18. Clinton took away the saftey net that many people on Supreme Court Rules Private Property Can be Seized · · Score: 1

    Clinton took away the saftey (sic) net that many people relied on for food.

    If your statement was true then people would be starving to death. I challenge you to produce a single news account of someone who has starved to death because of poverty.

    Furthermore your post reeks of self-contradiction. You condemn Clinton for reducing Welfare, and then you state that your ideal system would be an armed survival of the fittest contest. You come off as a terribly unbalanced person.

  19. LLLLWWCCC on Supreme Court Rules Private Property Can be Seized · · Score: 4, Insightful

    Stevens - Liberal
    Ginsburg - Liberal
    Breyer - Liberal
    Souter - Liberal
    O'Connor - Waffler
    Kennedy - Waffler
    Rehnquist - Conservative
    Thomas - Conservative
    Scalia - Conservative

    Generally speaking, of course. YMMV on particular issues.

  20. What's the point? on KOffice 1.4 Released · · Score: 4, Interesting

    All of the momentum and best coders are behind OpenOffice. Does the market really need a KO?

  21. No. on CNN Now Offers Free Online Video · · Score: 1

    Does anyone else see the problem with this basis for comparison?

    It's a discussion of political leanings, so a usefull reference point would be the average politician.

  22. Run across the road, go to building X on Monolith Layoffs In Wake of MXO Deal · · Score: 1

    As opposed to: Run to campsite, wait for X to spaw, kill X, take X's weapon, clothing, head to Y. Get experience?

  23. I called. on EFF: 48 Hours to Stop the Broadcast Flag · · Score: 1

    I'm a KS resident so I called Brownback. His intern said they were getting flooded. Good news.

  24. Who's going to introduce it? on EFF: 48 Hours to Stop the Broadcast Flag · · Score: 1

    I'd like to contact my Senator with something more personal than a form letter and I'd like to know who is introducing it.
