  1. Black Metal on The File Sharing Database · · Score: 1

    I'm guessing that Black Metal is a subspecies of Metal that is totaly free of any melody?

  2. Et tu Brute? on Creative Pressures id Software With Patents · · Score: 1

    Yeah. They're the good guys.

  3. Glickman's a straight shooter. on MPAA Names Dan Glickman To Replace Jack Valenti · · Score: 0, Troll

    As a Kansan Glickman made his reputation by being honest, dull and hardworking. How else does a Democrat Jew get elected by a bunch rightwing Kansan farmers?

  4. Jew from Kansas on MPAA Names Dan Glickman To Replace Jack Valenti · · Score: 0, Troll

    As a Kansan I always thought it was funny that the Sec of Ag was a Jew from Kansas. Now things are moving closer to equilibrium as he's going to work in Hollywood.

    Where in the Constitution does it say that we have to interpret it as some of the founding fathers said?

    Also note that many of the founding fathers passed the Alien and Sedition acts.

    Take a law class some time. Flexible interpretation has been the case since the begining of time. The reason we have human judges is to allow for human judgement. Everyone that's ever begged a judge to make their speeding ticket a non-moving violation understands the value of having human judgement involoved in jurisprudence.

  6. Weather weirdos on The Future of Free Weather Data on the Internet · · Score: 0, Flamebait

    Why don't you just look out the window? The weatherman has never made the weather any better, so I don't understand the fascination with being up to date on their predictions. If looking out the window doesn't suit you then watch the local news tonight. What's the big deal?

  7. Re:Take your cryin' ass to your mommy. on Rocket Hobbyists Get Blown Away by Regulations · · Score: 1

    The fact that scotus has seen fit to allow errosion of our rights

    One side thinks the SC is eroding rights, the other thinks they are inventing them. That must mean they are pretty much down the middle.

  8. Re:Take your cryin' ass to your mommy. on Rocket Hobbyists Get Blown Away by Regulations · · Score: 1

    The notion of a living constion that you find distatseful has generaly been used in conjunction with the expansion of protected rights, so I'm not sure what your objection is. (e.g. right to privacy , Grisworld)

    Anyway, regulating the trade of rocket engines clearly falls within Congress power to regulate interstate commerce. So this discussion has been moot.

  9. Dr. Octopus raping schoolgirls. on Spider-Man in India · · Score: 2, Funny

    Just what I've been wishing for all these years.

  10. Would you like curry with that? on Spider-Man in India · · Score: 0, Troll

    Are the comics going to reek like my Engineering department did back in college?

  11. Re:Take your cryin' ass to your mommy. on Rocket Hobbyists Get Blown Away by Regulations · · Score: 1

    The Constitution doesn't contain language about any inalienable right.

    With Constitutional law the SC balances the interests of the state versus those of he individual. Depending on the nature of the issue the threshold for permissibility varies. It is referred to as the level of scrutiny. Generaly there has been standard, intermediate, and strict scrutiny. These are by no means set in stone and justices are happy to pervert them when it suits their intellectual bias.

    The moral of the story is that in the real world absolutes like your "inalienable right" aren't paticularly practical and aren't protected without exception.

  12. Please reread the 10th on Rocket Hobbyists Get Blown Away by Regulations · · Score: 1

    Read it closely and you'll see your question doesn't make any sense.

  13. Re:Take your cryin' ass to your mommy. on Rocket Hobbyists Get Blown Away by Regulations · · Score: 1

    It's called the interstate commerce clause. Please pick up a textbook on Constitutional Law. It really is an interesting subject.

  15. Yes it's FUD. on Rocket Hobbyists Get Blown Away by Regulations · · Score: 0, Flamebait

    This only affects the weirdo's who build rockets that they shouldn't be building anyway.

    Any of the stuff we did as kids is still unregulated.

    Moreover the really huge stuff hasn't even been banned, it's just a hassle to get licensed.

    Cry me a river.

    Once the formerly free American sheeple resign themselves to arbitrary governmental intrusions...


    It appears as though you don't understand the meaning of the word 'arbitrary'.


    If the government was cracking down on left handed guitars that would be arbitrary.


    Regulating rockets most certainly isn't.


    You've obviously never studied Constitutional law because you have no right to build rockets.

  17. Uh. Thoses ICBMs helped fall the USSR. on U.S. Navy to Deploy Rail Guns by 2011 · · Score: 0, Flamebait

    While the Euroweenies were wailing, Reagan, with the blessing of the Pope, put those ICBM's at the Russian's back door.

    If Rail Guns can facilitate the fall of Islam or the ChiComs then bravo.

  18. No on U.S. Navy to Deploy Rail Guns by 2011 · · Score: 1, Funny

    We're the best.

  19. Fan will steal your breath, on Matsushita Designed Sleep Room · · Score: 1

    Ask any Korean. They know ALL about this.

  20. "convenient or they think the media isn't looking" on Army Plans Overhaul of Infantry Gear · · Score: 2, Insightful

    You post makes no sense. The Gitmo situation is a topic of worldwide interest, and has been a massive headache for the Administration.

    One might wish to consider that the Administration is utilizing Gitmo is because interrogating terrorists and not sending terrorists back home is a no brainer, and any responsible leader would do the same.

  21. Plus on Fedora Core Doesn't Like to Dual Boot? · · Score: 1

    Yet many of the same people modding my post down decry Lockheed TRW Boeing etc for getting too much corporate welfare.

    Manned space exploration just doesn't make sense folks.

    Perhaps you could work out, for the curious amoung us, what the probability of 2 random sets of 2GB of data have the same md5 signature?

    Does this probability increase or decrease with increasing likeness of data?

    Thanks
